What Are Fixed Charges on a FESCO Bill?

Understand fixed charges on a FESCO bill, how they differ from unit-based charges and what account details to verify.

Fixed charges section on a FESCO electricity bill

Fixed charges are billing components that are not calculated solely from the number of units used in the month.

Independent information website; not an official FESCO or PITC service. You can use the FESCO bill checker or learn how to locate the reference number.

Why fixed and variable charges are separate

Variable energy charges respond to measured consumption. A fixed component can relate to the connection category, sanctioned load, demand basis or another tariff rule. The exact treatment depends on the applicable tariff, so the bill category and current schedule matter.

What to check on the bill

Verify the tariff code, sanctioned load or demand information, billing period and the line labelled fixed charges. Compare like-for-like bills; a connection-category change or corrected load can make a simple month-to-month comparison misleading.

Why zero or low use may still produce a bill

Low consumption does not necessarily remove every charge. Fixed components, taxes, arrears or other applicable items can remain. Read the complete charge breakdown rather than assuming the total should be zero when few units were used.

How to question the amount

Use the current official tariff schedule and ask FESCO to explain the account-specific calculation. Provide the full bill and connection details. This site cannot access the account ledger or change the tariff category.

A safe review checklist

  • Confirm the account, meter and tariff details.
  • Compare the same lines across complete bills.
  • Separate current energy charges from taxes, adjustments, arrears and late amounts.
  • Verify changing rules through NEPRA, FESCO and the PITC bill service.
