to farm and hamlet consumers served direct by The Hydro-Electric Power
Commission of Ontario.
ONTARIO
'(’he cost of rural electric service is made up of two main, parts;
(1) The cost of providing electricity in bulk at convenient central
points (substations) ;
(2) The cost of distributing this electricity from these substations
to the user.
Since electricity cannot be stored; it is necessary to provide lines made
bp of poles, conductor., transformers; etc.; to carry the electricity from the
substation to the con sum ei* so that each user will have service available at
the flip of a switch. To the cost of building these lines must be added the
cost of maintaining and operating them.
Electric service rates originally included a Service Charge to cover the
cost of distribution; plus a meter rate to cover the cost of the bulk electricity
at the substation. The Province was divided into a number of rural powe?.*
districts created around available substations without particular regard to
township or county boundaries. Each of these districts had its own meter
rate, varying from a high of 6c, 2c and %c to a low of 21/gC; l%c and %c.
During the past twenty years many complications and inequalities have
arisen in trying to maintain the identity of these districts. Therefore ir.
order to provide suitable service to all at the lowest and fairest cost, the 120
Rural Power Districts have been combined into one Provincial Rural Power
System with a Uniform Meter Rate of 4c, l-6/10c and ^.c. Now, all Rural
Power Consumers anywhere in the Province pay the same meter rate. This
Uniform Rate represents a reduction in most of the old districts and an
increase in only a few districts formerly having a very low rate.
These explanations are given to help you understand the new rate. In.
our next message, we shall discuss, for your benefit, the MINIMUM BILL.
In the meantime, if you need further information, please ask your Rural
District Superintendent.

COMMISSION OF ONTARIO
In order to have a complete understanding of the new rural rates, we
suggest you clip and keep these explanations.
