Home electrical system

Back when I had electrical there was a 100 Amp service within my poorly wired home. That was built in the late 60's many an overload for circuits had been to have taken place luckily with no fires.
It would part of the year average 32kwhr a day and the other much colder months closer to 67kwhr. That means the circuit breaker panel and house wiring needed to be upgraded.

I went with a 200 Amp underground to remove potential power lose in winter.
The first bill has arrived and it is $42.68 for the 13kwhrs used that included a $34.50 charge for power reconnection.

Re: Home electrical system

The number of days was 10 so the kwhr is sort of misleading as the 1.3 kwhr was for a 24hr period of use.

The cost for the 1 kwhr is $0.629.
