What is the Tariff Rate?
To understand the IESCO Tariff, you first need to know that IESCO charges its consumers for different types of connections, and these charges are referred to as the ‘Tariff.’
In simple terms, the electricity company, which incurs expenses on the production of electricity and provides electricity to its consumers at a reasonable rate, is called the ‘Tariff Rate.’
Tariff charges vary for different types of connections, such as local consumers who take connections for their homes have different charges, industrial connections have separate charges, and these charges are higher than those for domestic connections.
This is because industrial connections consume more electricity and operate for longer durations than domestic connections.
