Hours Use of DemandAuthor: E.E. Kimberly The product of the kilowatts of demand and the hours of use of that demand is a quantity of kilowatt-hours known as a block of energy.
Example 14-2. - Solve Example 14-1, using the rates of Schedule B and taking the demand as 50.6 hp.
Solution. - The number of hours of use of maximum demand is 6400-50.6 = 126.5 hr Under Schedule B the rate is $0.0375 per kw-hr, and the charge is 6400·0.0375 =$240.00 With a gross bill of $250.00 the consumer is entitled to a discount of 12%. Hence, the net bill is $240.00·0.88 = $211.20
