How to Save on Electricity One of a series Accuracy is Joremostwhen we read iur meier ana imure vour eiecmc ran 4-- ll In order to save on electricity, a Utah Power customer needs to know how his meter is read, how much electricity household appliances use, how his electric bill is processed, and how to interpret that bill. If you missed our previous messages on how to read your meter and on comparing the energy consumption con-sumption of appliances, write Reddy Kilowatt, P.O. Box 899, Salt Lake City, Utah 84110, and ask for copies of "How to Read a Meter" and "Become a . Watt-Watcher." Look for further messages in this series. Accuracy is Utah Power's watchword in recording and computing how much electricity you use, and in billing you for it each month. Here's how your bill is processed: ' Each month, a specially trained meter reader is given individual account meter sheets showing the names and addresses of those customers on his assigned route. When the meter reader arrives at your residence, he records on your account meter sheet the meter reading read-ing as shown by the dials on, your meter. x Fed into computer The meter reader returns your account meter sheet to the company office, where it is checked to make ; sure the numbers recorded are legible and complete, and then it is fed into a computer. The computer electronically "reads" the meter reading on the account me.ter sheet, compares it with the previous month, subtracts the previous reading from the new reading to determine how many kilowatt ' hours you have used during the billing period, then it computes and prints your bill. If, however, the amount of kilowatt hours is unusually high or low, compared to previous months, the computer rejects the computation, compu-tation, and your account meter sheet is returned to the meter reader, who then goes back to your residence and takes a completely new reading. Is meter accessible? If accessible, every meter is read every month. Utah Power no longer estimates bills except when meters are not accessible. Locked gates and intimidating dogs are the most frequent reasons we cannot get to meters. In any case, bills are not estimated for more'than two consecutive con-secutive months. . But when we have to estimate your bill,-it is done by our accounting department, with the. help of computerized com-puterized data. Meter readers never estimate bills. Same monthly interval Utah Power makes an effort to read your meter at the same monthly interval, keeping the same number of days in each of your billing periods to make it easier for you to compare month-by-month power consumption. consump-tion. (On holidays and weekends, meters are not read, so the number of days will vary from time to time.) Every phase of the meter-reading and billing procedure is double checked. Hut should you have a uuestion regarding your bill, you can receive a prompt explanation just by calling the Utah Power custom r i i" i-- - ri,m,i ... it tmjml 11 in. t.....n- 1 i- ii i -" Ml . - tgigf ym V n i J l MIS'; V.
