How To Calculate Your Electricity Bill? Simple Calculation.
It is very easy to calculate the electricity bill and tariff for Electrical Engineering Students but, it makes confusion for non-technical people that concern about their electric charges from the electricity service providers.
Below is a simple example and calculation about electricity bill. If you pick this, You will be able to calculate your electricity bill very easily.
Example:
Suppose, a consumer consumes 1000 watts load per hour daily for one month. Calculate The Total Energy bill of the consumer if per unit rate is 9 (In $, £, €, INR ,Rs, DHR, Riyal etc) [Take 1 month = 30 Days].
Solution:
1unit = 1kWh.
So Total kWh = 1000 Watts x 24 Hrs x 30 Days = 720000 watts/hour.
we Want to convert it into Units, Where is 1unit = 1kWh.
So total Consumed units. 720000/1000…… (k=kilo=1000).
Total Units = 720.
Cost of per unit is 9.
So total Cost or Electricity bill= 720 x 9 = 6480. (In $, £, €, INR ,Rs, DHR, Riyal etc). You have Done
Good To Know:
A question is raised that why we multiplied it with 24 although the daily rate is given. Not that It is not Daily Rates, It’s the rate of Per Unit Where 1 unit = 1 kWh (Also Called 1 =B.T.U = Board of Trade Unit).
for instance, If you switched ON a 1000 watt bulb for 1 hour, It mean you consumed 1000 watts for an hour i.e. (1000 watts for 1 hour = 1kWh = 1 unit of Energy). So if the rate of unit is $5 , then you will pay 5 Dollars as a bill for your bulb which consumed 1kWh = 1 unit of electricity.

OP, welldone.

Many homes in the rural areas don't have prepaid meters.

NERC should intensify efforts to ensure that prepaid meters are supplied to all houses to curb the menace of estimated Billings.

slimzeyy can you domisticate your calculations?
