Electricity pricing sometimes referred as electricity tariff. UPPCL has broadly categorized its tariff on the basis of voltagae level.
Low Medium Voltage (LMV).
High Voltage (HV).
LMV Consumers are further sub-categorized in 10 parts, called - LMV1, LMV2,... LMV10. Similarly, HV consumers are also sub-categorized in 4 parts, called - HV1, HV2, HV3 and HV4.
Based on the Area, such as Urban or Rural, Connection type such as Metered or Unmetered, Billing units, such as KWH or KVAH, all these tariff were divided into Supply Type. Lets discuss all these Supply Type...
