electricity bill (Juan José Anido)

We are accustomed to receiving every 2 months (now going to be every month) an invoice from our company supplying electricity in our home in which they appear a large number of concepts and data, but generally only look at the amount without even reviewing the other concepts that compose it.

Therefore, we will explain step by step how to decipher the contents of our invoice elective.

The first is an overview of the bill that the company sends us:

It must appear, among others, the personal data of the holder of supply, as well as the direction in which it is performed, the data also direct debit in which payments are made and identifying the supplier and office on which we depend.

But let us begin.

first thing to know how much energy we consume. This is evaluated by contrasting the readings of individual measurement equipment that we have in our attack. It takes the value of the last reading and the current value and subtracting the previous period less power consumption yields we have done.

Now we know the energy consumed we focus on the parts for which we will factrurar power company.

Companies charge for energy usage for power contracted and, if necessary (the majority), and measurement equipment rental (light meter).

contracted power is the maximum power that the company will provide us. From this value, the power control switch (ICP) of our control panel, then cut and prevent the passage of electricity to our homes. But ... What is that limit?

Very easy, just check on our ICP which is the maximum amps that can happen. For a normal home, this value is usually 20 amps. Vale ... What about how much power is 20 amps? To find out, multiply 20 amps of current through the voltage supply us with the power company (if you have single phase, which is the usual will be 220 or 230 volts) to obtain a value of 4400 or 4600 watts (depending on whether the voltage is 220 or 230 volts respectively. This is the maximum that will support our facility. then shows the calculation of turnover of power to a home with a maximum of 20 amps and voltage of 220 volts.

To obtain the amount final power is multiplied maximum (4'4 kw) for the billing period (1 month) for the price set by the state for power 1kw (€ 1.641174).

The next step is to calculate what we have to pay for the use we have made.

Multiply consumption kw / h we have done for the price of 1kw / h (currently € 0.111839) and get the subtotal of the amount we are billed for consumption. To all this, you must add the amount that we calculated in power consumption and to levy excise duty on electricity (charged by the state and used for research and development of new energy sources, or so they say .) This tax is found by adding the amount of turnover for power and the amount of billing for consumption by multiplying that total by 1.05113 and this in turn by 4.864%.

Finally, it only remains to apply the rental cost of the measuring equipment (the counter) and add the subtotal to 16% VAT. The hiring of an accountant by FENOSA and during the period of 1 month is 0.54 €.



Having calculated all these sections, the final amount of our invoice is obtained by adding the various concepts. This amount is the amount that we charge into account.
