Reading your QESCO bill
The calculator needs the units consumed for the month and your sanctioned load in kW. If the fuel or quarterly adjustment on your bill is a different figure, change the defaults under Adjustments and taxes.
Agricultural tube-well connections, common in Balochistan, are on a separate tariff and are not covered here.
Bordering areas are billed by SEPCO and K-Electric on the same uniform tariff; compare with the SEPCO bill calculator or the K-Electric bill calculator.
