Pengiraan Surcaj Faktor Kuasa

Power factor surcharge for customers with electricity supply below 132 kV is calculated as follows:-
1.5% surcharge of the current bill for every 0.01 less than 0.85 power factor.
3% surcharge of the current bill for every 0.01 less than 0.75 power factor.
Example 1:-
Current bill: RM2,000
Power Factor = 0.80
Surcharge = [(0.85 0.80) / 0.01] x 1.5% x RM2,000
= RM150
Example 2:-
Current bill: RM2,000
Power Factor = 0.75
Surcharge = [(0.85 0.75) / 0.01] x 1.5% x RM2,000
= RM300
Example 3:-
Current bill: RM2,000
Power Factor = 0.60
Surcharge = [((0.85 0.75) / 0.01) x 1.5% x RM2,000] + [((0.75 0.60) / 0.01) x 3% x RM2,000]
= RM1200
