Tamilnadu government has revised the electricity charges for domestic consumers on 2022. Cost of electricity is calculated based on the updated slab rates. Updated slab rates mentioned below:

0 to 100 units – free of cost.For 0 to 500 units – first 100 units free, for next 101 to 200 units Rs.2.25 per unit, for next 201 to 400 units Rs.4.5 per unit, for balance Rs.6 per unit.For above 500 units – first 100 units free, for next 101 to 400 units Rs.4.5 per unit, for next 401 to 500 units Rs.6 per unit, for next 501 to 600 units Rs.8 per unit, for next 601 to 800 units Rs.9 per unit, for next 801 to 1000 units Rs.10 per unit,for balance Rs.11 per unit.

Tamilnadu government has also revised the electricity charges for apartment maintenance common meters on 2022. Cost of electricity is calculated based on the updated fixed slab rate. Updated slab rates mentioned below:

From 1 to 9999999 units – Fixed slab rate Rs.8 per unit.

Tariff is nothing but a way of charging our bill depending upon the consumption with different charges. We know TNEB is providing 100 units of free electricity to all domestic consumers.

For example if we use 150 units of electricity within 60 days cycle we will be charged for only 50 units by deducting 100 units of free electricity. A report says due to this free electricity nearly 80 lakhs consumers are using electricity at free of cost.

The cost of unit consumed is distributed as energy charges, Fixed charges and consumption charges. The TNEB slab rates for domestic depends upon the number of unit consumed. It is tabulated as above.

Calculation of EB bill is very simple. It depends upon the power of the electric appliances and the number of hours we are using the appliance in a single day. Multiply it by the respective KWh rate.

TNEB bill is calculated based on the consumption of units and the slab it comes under. The cost of 1 unit of electricity is also determined according to the slab as mentioned below:

Usually one of the executive from EB Board comes to our residence and note the readings and the amount to be paid within the due date.

Now a days it is very easy to find out the reading and we can do it by our self due to the digitization in EB sector. Check the total units consumed by noting down the reading manually in the EB meter and subtract it from the no of units used in the last paid bill.

You can also use the above provided calculator as well for calculating domestic TNEB bill calculation.

If we fail to pay the bill within due date they may disconnect our service connection. We have to pay the bill with fine amount which is around 1.5% on the total bill amount to reactivate our connection.

1 UNIT = 1 KWHR OR 1000 WATTS

For eg 5000 W appliance is in operation for 2 hours

We say 5000/1000 = 5 kwhr for 1 hr 5 kw hence for 2 hours we get 10kw/hr and so 10 units is consumed.

We can reduce the electricity bill by scheduled usage of electrical appliance. Mainly switch off the appliance when not in use. Use LED lights instead of tube lights.
