commerical is normally more
Is the residential rate cheaper or more expensive than commercial? Our park at the river is switching over so each tenant pays the electric co. directly, rather than us all paying together at a commercial rate....Anyone have ideas on the difference??$$$ Thanks....

It's metered different, so it's hard to draw a direct comparrison... but usually a commercial rate is slightly cheaper per Kilowatt Hour (KWh) since those accounts will use more electricity over the billing cycle than a residential rate.
But a commercial rate usually has an installed KW demand charge (how much load is on the meter) that is significantly more than the residential minimum monthly bill.
So it all comes out in the wash... usually...
Clear as mud???

Hee hee....not really....:hammerhea I have never seen the actual bill for the whole property, so i don't know if there is a demand charge.....I hope it doesn't go way up, of course, but even or less would be nice....

So are you each going to have an account with the power company, or is the park going to meter the electricity itself and send you a bill???
well if you take the bill and split it equally....
if you use less then the average, your bill will go down. if you use more then the average, your bill will go up.

They used to send us a bill, now we'll have our own account. I'm hoping the change won't be too drastic....:hammerhea

Shouldn't be, if you were paying by the meter that the park read. In fact it'll probably go down since most parks add a little on top of what the bill should be....

We didn't split it equally--each of us has our own meter.....

Let's hope so!!
