This is one in a series of messages explaining problems of electric supply to farm and
hamlet consumers served direct by The Hydro-Electric Power 'Commission of Ontario.
Uniform Rural Meter Rate
Anywhere in Ontario
Our last advertisement illustrated the reductions which will
apply to farm and harrilet services in most areas in the
Province. Herein we give some of the reasons for and
benefits of the new Uniform Meter Rate..
The cost of rural electric service is made up of two main parts:
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
up of 'poles, conductor, transformers, etc.,'` to carry the electricity from the
substation to the consumer 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 electrify
at the substation, The Province was divided into a number of rural power
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 3/4'c to a low of 21/2 c, 11/2 c ,and Mc.
During the past twenty years many complications and inequalities have
ariSen. in trying to maintain the identity of these districts. Therefore in 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, 1-6/10c and 3/4 c. Now, all Rtiral Power Consumers anywhere iii the Province pay the same meter rate. This Uni-
form 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,
Itt, the meantime, if you need further information, please ask your Rural District Superintendent,
THE HYDRO•EILECTRk POWER
COMMISSION OF 'ONTARIO
In order to have a complete understanding of the new rural rates, we suggest you 'clip
and keep these explanations.
