THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) has reduced the penal levy for unauthorised additional load used by consumers.

As per the new rates, penal charges payable for unauthorised load will be Rs 50 per KW for domestic LT consumers and twice the existing rate fixed for monthly consumption per kWh in the case of other than domestic consumers and twice the existing demand charges payable per kWh for high-tension and extra-high tension (HT/EHT) consumers.

The penal charges are payable till such time as the use of additional load is dispensed with or is streamlined as per rules.

The penal charges being levied currently for unauthorised load are in the range of three times the fixed charges and twice the electricity charges.
