Important note for consumers :
Timely
payment of bills by the consumers
The Commission is of the view that alongwith ensuring timely
distribution of bills by the utility to the consumers, the
consumers also have a moral responsibility for making timely
payment of bills to the utility for the commodity and the
services availed.
In
exceptional case of non-receipt of bill by the consumer within
15 days of reading of meter or 20 days of the due date of
payment of preceeding month’s bill, the consumer is expected
to collect the bill himself from the utility office and make
payment before due date. In case of any non-cooperation in
making available the duplicate bill, concerned MPSEB officer
will be held responsible.

Minimum Charges :
(a)
For tariff 2.2 (three phase connection) charges equal to 45
units per month per kW or part thereof of CL would
be charged.
(b) For tariff 2.3 (MD
based Tariff) demand charges on CD would be charged.
7
Billing in case of defective meters
The
consumer shall be billed for the period, when the meter has
become defective, on the basis of average consumption of
previous three meter reading cycles. In cases where the
recorded consumption of past three meter reading cycles, prior
to the date meter became defective, is either not available or
partially available, the consumption pattern of three meter
reading cycles subsequent to the installation of
repaired/replaced meter shall be taken for estimation of
consumption. This charge shall be levied till the meter is
repaired/replaced and metering restored on the actual
consumption basis.
8
Additional Charge
8.1.
(a) The consumers availing supply at Tariff 2.3 should at
all times restrict their actual maximum demand within the
contract demand. In case the actual maximum demand in any
month exceeds the contract demand, the said tariff shall apply
only to the extent of the contract demand and
corresponding units of energy. The demand in excess of contract
demand and corresponding units of energy (hereinafter referred
to as “Excess Supply”) shall be treated as power supplied
and availed of separately for billing purposes. The excess
supply so availed, if any, in any month shall be charged at two
times normal rates prescribed in the tariff applicable to the
consumer and while doing so, the other terms and conditions
(viz. fixed charges, charges for low power factor, etc.)
of tariff shall also be applicable on the said excess supply.
For the purposes of billing of excess supply the billing demand
and the units of energy shall be determined as under:-
Billing
demand: The demand in excess of the contract demand in any
month shall be the billing demand.
Units
of Energy: the units of energy corresponding to kWs of the
portion of the demand in excess of the contract demand shall
be:-
Where,
TU - denotes total units supplied during the month;
CD - denotes contract
demand, and
MD – denotes actual
maximum demand
The
“excess supply” availed in any month shall be charged along-
with the monthly bill and shall be payable by the consumer
therewith.
(b)
The above excess billing at two times the normal tariff,
applicable to consumers is without prejudice to the Board’s
right to discontinue the supply in accordance with
the provisions contained in the Board’s ‘General
Conditions for Supply of Electrical Energy and Scale of
Miscellaneous and General Charges’.
(c)
The connected load under the Tariff 2.3 would mean the connected
load entered in the agreement executed with the consumer even in
cases where the actual connected load is less than the connected
load entered in the agreement.
TOP
8.2
The foregoing tariffs 2.1 and 2.2 are applicable to the extent
of the connected load for which the agreement subsists between
the Board and the consumer. In case the connected load in
the consumer's premises is at any time found in excess of what
has been agreed to between the consumer and the Board, the
consumer shall have to pay in respect of units (including
minimum charge) corresponding to the excess load at 1.5 times
the normal tariff rate (inclusive of Fuel/Variable Cost
Adjustment Charge, if any), for previous three months
immediately preceding the date of inspection, unless the onus is
rebutted by the consumer.

Rounding off
All
bills will be rounded off to the nearest rupee.
10
Other
Terms and Conditions
a) Late payment Surcharge: If
the bills are not paid by the consumers within the period (due
date) prescribed, a surcharge of 1.5% per month of the total
amount of monthly bill (including outstanding arrears) will be
payable in addition.
b) Fuel/ Variable Cost Adjustment
(VCA) Charge: Fuel charge/ VCA charge, if any, shall be levied
in addition to energy charge.
c) Meter Hire – Meter Hire shall
be charged as per the Schedule of Miscellaneous Charges. Part of
a month will be reckoned as full month for purpose of billing
d) The consumers under the
foregoing tariffs, except the installations having only lights
and fans in the connected load, shall maintain an average
power factor not less than 0.8 in any month.
e) Ordinarily, no new supply to LT
installations with welding transformers will be given unless
suitable capacitors, so as to ensure power factor of not less
than 0.8 lagging, are installed.
f) The welding
surcharge is applicable to installations with welding
transformers, where the connected load of welding transformers
exceeds 25% of the total connected load and where capacitors of
prescribed capacity have not been installed.
g) For purposes of computing the
connected load in KW or HP of the welding transformers, a power
factor of 0.6 shall be applied to the maximum current or KVA
rating of such welding transformers.
h) Welding Surcharge of 75
(seventy five) paise per unit shall be levied in respect of all
LT installations with welding transformers in the connected load
unless suitable capacitors are installed so as to ensure power
factor of not less than 0.8 lagging.
i) Ordinarily, no new
supply to LT installations with induction motor/s of capacity of
3 HP and above will be given unless suitable capacitors to
improve the power factor, are installed.
j) Every power
consumer whose connected load includes induction motor/s
of capacity of 3 HP and above, shall arrange to install Low
Tension Shunt Capacitors at his cost across the terminals
of his motors of the rating specified herein below:-
Sl.No.
Rating of individual Induction motor.

given without his installing capacitor of specified
rating, shall be liable to pay power factor surcharge of
26 (twenty six) paise per unit in respect of consumption of the
entire installation during the month.
b)
The power factor/ welding surcharge shall be applicable to the
entire monthly consumption of the installation
c)
The decision of the Executive Engineer of the Board as to the
adequacy or otherwise of the power factor improvement device
installed shall be binding on consumers.
