Why consumers are charged based on Kwh basis why not on
Kvah basis.
Answer Posted / mahavir jagdev
They can be charged in Kvah only in case of DC transmision. In AC transmission due to the inductive or capacitive load the power factor comes into play, hence the effective metering is done on Kwh basis. Infact the energy company instruct the consumer whow has a lot of inductive load (motors) to put capacitor banks to keep the power factor within 0.85 region for lower powerline losses.
