Why a Minirnum dill for Electric Service? In our previous ;message, we indicated the two parts of the cost of supplying electric power to the Rural User. Let us consider the part covering distribution cost, and its relation to the MINIMTJM BILL ..�' Electricity cannot be bought at a store and taken home for use. It has to be delivered to your home or farm over distribution linesbuilt of poles, wires, insulators, transformers, meters, • etc. These lines mustbe ready to deliver electricity day in and day out, when youlurn the switch. These pole lines, with related equipment, cost money to construct, and on this cost must be paid each year, interest andrepayment of capital: In addition, these 'hneg Must be properly maintained,: replaced when necessary,and kepi in good operating condition, including costs of billing and •collecting and,;superintendence. All of these distribution costs must be met each year, in addition to the actual cost of electricity at the substation. Let us see what this distribution cost amounts to: Cost to construct 20,000 miles of distribution lines to serve 135,000 -rural users $39,000,000.00 Yearly cost.. (1942) of operation, maintenance, interest, renewals, etc $ 2,991,400.00 Average cost per customer $22.20 per year 1.85 per month In hamlets, where .customers can be grouped and lines are shorter, this average cost per user is slightly less, In the case of farms where the users are spread along the line, the cost is somewhat greater. Whether or not you use power in any month, the cost of this equip- ment to serve you, still carries on. If you use less electricity than is covered by the minimum cost (on standard farms, 56 kilowatt hours a month), then you have a MINIMUM BILL to meet this distribution cost. If' your use of electricity is greater, your bill at the Uniform Rate covers both distribution cost, plus the cost of electricity at the station. The ;Minimum Bill for a 2 -wire Hamlet user is $1.50 net per month; for a standsTd Farm, it is $2,02 net per month. These explanations are given, to help you understand the new rate: In our next message, we will discuss, for your benefit, "Installing Services under War Conditions". In the meantime, if you need further infor- mation, please ask your Rural District Superintendent.
