Example 4
A domestic consumer has the following loads:
27 light points each 100 w, used for 5 hrs/day
5 fans, each 100 w, used for 4 hrs/day
6 A/C each 2.5kw used for 10 hrs/day
2 water heaters each 1.5kw used for 4 hrs/day
Other remaining loads (refrigerator, TV, etc) consumes
approximately Í kw used for average 6 hrs/day
Determine the monthly electricity bill using the following
tariffs:
Flat rate tariff at 8 fils/unit
(b) Block rate tariff of 6 fils for 1st 2000 units, 12 fils for 2nd
3000 units and 16 fils for remaining units (above 5000)
