Take control
of your electric bill! KEC offers a wide variety of information
and account options to help you better manage your account
and budget..
ACCOUNT
NUMBER
Your Account
Number is located in the left hand corner of the bill
detail. This unique number identifies the specific account
set up under your membership for the meter being tracked
by this bill. Many of our members have more than one meter
(house, barn, oil well, water well, etc.) and therefore
have more than one account number. It is important that
you provide the account number in question any time you
need information on your account or report a concern,
allowing us to more accurately address the specific meter.

Listed below are definitions to terms frequently used on billing

Basic Service Charge - this is a charge
for the facilities from the substation to your meter pole
and certain fixed costs like depreciation, interest and
maintenance of the distribution system.
Energy Charge (KiloWatt Hour) Charge
- this is the cost for the energy you have used. This may
include only energy or it may also include capacity for
larger accounts.
Demand (KW) Charge - this is the cost
broken down for larger accounts to show the capacity cost
only. On smaller accounts this is included with the kilowatt
hour charge.
Power Cost Adjustment (PCA) - this is
a charge to collect additional cost for energy purchased
that is not in the current rate. This can be either a credit
or a charge.
Meter Reading Fee - this is a charge
incurred by you if you have not read the meter for two consecutive
months and a coop employee has to come out and read it for
you.
Other Items - may include security lighting
charges, load management credits, sales tax, or franchise
fees for certain areas of our system.
Please send in the tear-off portion with your payment or
