RA - Residential All-Electric

What this tariff charges

Energy rates

The charged price is the base rate plus its adjustment. Adjustments carry fuel and rider costs and are frequently most of the bill, so a comparison built on the base rate alone is meaningless.

What it costs at different usage levels

Effective rate includes the fixed charge, which is why it falls as usage rises. This is a time-of-use tariff, so the result also depends on when power is used; an average residential pattern is assumed. Details →

The utility's own description

Subject to other conditions contained herein, this rate is applicable to all alternating current service for residential purposes only, to premises at which total energy needs are satisfied by electric service supplied by CPS Energy. In order to qualify for this tariff, the residential Customer must not have other sources of energy for use in space heating, air conditioning, water heating, cooking or other major loads at the premises. The service to the premises is supplied at one point of delivery through one meter. When a portion of a residence or household unit served through one meter is used for non-residential purposes, this rate is not applicable. However, if the wiring is so arranged that the service for residential purposes and that for non-residential purposes are separately metered, this rate is applicable to the service supplied for residential purposes provided all other application criteria have been satisfied. This rate is not applicable to service for resale or to service for hotels, rooming houses, boarding houses, motels, dormitories, or to premises used for other than residential purposes. This rate is not applicable when more than four residential units are served through one meter. This rate applies to any premises that qualifies under, and is subject to, the RA rate as of June 26, 2006, where no rate other than the RA rate has subsequently been applied to the premises, i.e., the subsequent provision of electric service under any other rate disqualifies the premises from future application of the RA rate. In all cases, the application criteria and proper application of this rate shall be determined at the sole discretion of CPS Energy
