Increased electricity tariffs over 300 kilowatts will affect summer residents and homeowners

In what cases is it necessary to apply an increasing coefficient? Since January 2019, the requirements for using an increasing coefficient for electricity for the population of the Moscow region and residents of other regions have not changed - in the absence of a meter, the cost of the heat exchanger increases noticeably in comparison with the standard standard. The PC is used in two main situations: the owner of the premises has not installed it individually. That residents who have not installed water and electricity meters pay for these services according to the standard multiplied by an increasing factor. Here we have “reached” our 1940 level.

Kostroma Sales Company informs about the transition to calculations using an increasing coefficient.
From August 1, 2020, in the Kostroma region, when generating electricity bills for consumers who, for various reasons, have not installed metering devices, an increasing coefficient of 1.5 will be applied to the consumption standard.

This is provided for by the Rules for the provision of utility services to owners and users of premises in apartment buildings and residential buildings, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 354.

In what cases will an increasing factor of 1.5 be applied?

If electricity meters are not installed, if it is technically possible to install them;
If a failed electricity meter is not replaced within 3 months (measurement results are not displayed, control seals and verification marks are broken, there are mechanical damages, the permissible error of readings is exceeded, the verification interval has expired);
The electricity meter has an accuracy class of 2.5. Such meters are not designed to operate a modern set of household electrical appliances; if they are overloaded, they can lead to a fire.
After 3 billing periods, if the utility service provider is not allowed to check electricity meters 2 or more times.

Where should I go to install a meter?

A full range of services for installation and sealing of the metering device is provided by the partner of the guaranteeing supplier - KSK SERVICE LLC.

To use this service, just contact the office of PJSC “Kostroma Sales Company” at the address: Kostroma, Mira Avenue, 37-39/28. You can order the installation of an electric meter by calling 440-266 and 440-244 or leaving a request online using the link.

Charges for electricity when exceeding the calibration interval

Every month, each family receives a receipt indicating the need to pay for the electricity consumed. When people buy housing for themselves, especially when it comes to the secondary real estate market, as a rule, they do not think about what kind of meter is installed in their apartment or house, and how long it can be used. But, sooner or later, an order comes from the energy sales company stating that the calibration interval of the electric meter has come up, or that it needs to be replaced.

An electric meter is an electrical measuring device designed to measure consumed electrical energy. Over time, the error of the meter may exceed the permissible error limits. The period from the initial inspection (usually from the date of issue) to the next inspection is called the verification interval.

Verification of an electric meter is a mandatory check established by law for the correctness of its operation. The verification period depends on the model and type of metering device and ranges from 6 to 16 years. Metering devices of an approved type that have been verified in accordance with the requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation on ensuring the uniformity of measurements are allowed for use. You can order verification of an electricity meter from a specialized metrological organization, for example, FBU Rostest-Moscow.

You can obtain information about the end of the verification interval in the passport of your meter or on the manufacturer’s website, which sets this period for each specific type of meter. The meter itself indicates the date of issue, on which the verification period depends. In addition, get advice on the timing of the next verification of the electric meter from Contact (tel. 8-495-981-981-9).

According to clause 81(12) of the Rules for the provision of utility services to owners and users of premises in apartment buildings and residential buildings, approved by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 05/06/2011. No. 354 (hereinafter referred to as the Rules), when the verification interval for a metering device expires, such a metering device is considered out of order. If the verification interval expires, the obligation to replace it lies with the electricity consumer (in accordance with clause 145 of the main provisions for the functioning of retail electricity markets, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated May 4, 2012 No. 442).

In addition, in accordance with clause 34 of the Rules, the consumer is obliged to:

1. Ensure verification of individual metering devices installed at the consumer’s expense within the time limits established by the technical documentation for the metering device.

2. Allow the contractor to enter the occupied residential or non-residential premises to check the condition of individual, common (apartment), room metering devices and the accuracy of the information provided by the consumer to the contractor about the readings of such metering devices.

Electricity meters with expired MPI do not provide reliable accounting of consumed electricity. According to current legislation, the readings of such metering devices are not used to calculate the cost of consumed electricity. Therefore, during three billing periods after the expiration of the MPI, the cost of consumed electricity will be calculated based on the consumption standard using an increasing factor of 1.4 from July 1, 2020, and from January 1, 2020 - 1.5. The corresponding procedure is provided for by the “Rules for the provision of utility services to owners and users of premises in apartment buildings and residential buildings”, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated May 6, 2011 No. 354 (clause 59, paragraph a, clause 60).

At the same time, after installing a new electric meter or checking an existing one, charges are made based on the data of a new report drawn up by a specialist. Recalculation for the months between the end of the service life of the old meter and the commissioning of the new one/verification is not performed.

Unauthorized replacement of an electric meter is considered to be a violation of the integrity of the previously installed seal of the energy supplying organization on the meter without prior notification, as well as without subsequent registration of the metering device in the prescribed manner. In this case, the new meter is considered non-rated, and its connection is unauthorized, which entails additional charge of energy consumption from the date of the last check of the meter according to the electricity consumption standard in accordance with paragraph 62 of the Rules. And current charges are made according to the standard for electricity consumption with an increasing factor.

In this regard, we remind you: it is strictly prohibited to dismantle electricity metering devices, as well as the seals installed on them, either with the involvement of third parties or independently without prior notification of the utility service provider. (By virtue of subclause “d” of clause 35 of the Rules for the provision of utility services to owners and users of premises in apartment buildings and residential buildings, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of May 6, 2011 No. 354 (hereinafter referred to as the Rules), the consumer does not have the right to unauthorizedly break the seals on devices metering and at the places where they are connected (attached), dismantle metering devices and carry out unauthorized interference in the operation of these metering devices).

Thus, in the event of replacing a metering device with the involvement of third parties (organizations providing services for replacing metering devices) or independently, it is necessary in advance, no later than two working days before the planned date of replacement of the metering device, to inform the utility service provider about this to ensure its presence employee when dismantling the meter and taking readings from the old meter.

In the event of an unauthorized replacement of a metering device (without prior notification to the electricity utility provider of the date of the work), all responsibility for the consequences rests with the owner of the residential premises.

Thus, if you have received a notification about the need to verify/replace an electricity meter, you must promptly contact specialists at the client office of MosOblEIRTS LLC.

IMPORTANT!

We remind you that in order to correctly and timely pay for housing and communal services, meter readings must be transferred from the 15th to the 25th of each month to the client office of MosObleIRTs, located at the address: Ramenskoye, st. Makhova, 6, in the payer’s personal account on the website mosobleirts.rf or by calling the contact center. The call is free.

In what cases is a multiplying factor applied when paying for electricity?

Housing and communal services / Tariffs for housing and communal services Since January 2020, apartment owners who are not equipped with water and electricity meters are forced to pay for utilities using a coefficient of 1.5. What are the requirements of utility companies based on and how can costs for electricity and water supply be reduced? We publish explanations from Nizhny Novgorod specialists on this topic. What is a multiplying factor? This is the coefficient used when calculating the amount of payment for utility services in the absence of a meter and the technical ability to install it. It is considered as a measure to encourage consumers to install metering devices. How is the multiplying factor calculated? Increasing coefficients are not calculated.

The value of the coefficient is established by law and serves as a penalty for those who violate the implementation of acts on the mandatory installation of metering devices. Is it possible to avoid tariff increases without installing meters? It is possible if the use of devices is impossible for the following reasons:

housing is recognized as unsafe or dilapidated;
installation requires network repair;
pipes or wiring are faulty;
if the environmental conditions are not suitable for operating the meter (humidity, temperature, electromagnetic radiation).

Metering devices are applied to public services:

hot water supply;
cold water supply;
heat supply;
electricity.

Meters record the actual consumption of the above categories; payment for utilities is made on the basis of this data.

Increasing factor in the absence of a meter

The current situation with housing and communal services is such that property owners who consume utility resources are required to install meters, and in their absence, pay increased tariffs. If at the beginning of the implementation of this policy the tariff overpayment was about 30%, then by 2020 the increasing coefficient applied to the established tariffs is already 1.5. Thus, utility bills for those who have not installed water and electricity meters and do not submit meter readings can be overpaid by up to 60%.

Summary of the article

Increasing coefficients in the absence of metering devices

In the first case, the calculation is made in the same way as for cold water. Tariffs that apply to two components of hot water require a different formula: the volume of water according to the consumption rate is multiplied by the cold water component, the volume of heat required to maintain the temperature of hot water. All this is multiplied on the PC. Thus, when calculating, it becomes obvious that the lack of individual water meters leads to a significant increase in the cost of utility bills! For electricity, the Federal Law “On Energy Saving” obliges all citizens to install electricity meters with an accuracy class of 2.0 and higher. Meters are installed free of charge by specialists from companies providing energy supply services. Without a meter, if it is possible to install one, the same PC in the amount of 1.5 applies as for water.

Increasing coefficient for electricity

The operation of electronic meters is based on microcircuits; they directly convert the read signals. These devices have no rotating parts, which significantly increases their reliability and service life. Simply put, the transformation ratio of the meter has a direct impact on the accuracy of the data it produces.

Electricity meter transformation ratio - what is it and how to calculate it?

In 2012, Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1650-r was approved, which proposes a project for the transition to a system for calculating utility bills taking into account the social norm of consumption. Currently, the system operates in a number of regions of the country (Rostov, Nizhny Novgorod and other regions).

There is no individual metering device installed in the apartment (house).
The meter was removed for inspection or repair, which lasts more than three months.
The management company cannot record meter readings for more than three months.

The use of the coefficient is excluded for premises with low electricity and heating consumption, as well as for dilapidated and dilapidated buildings subject to demolition. If the payment for resources has nevertheless been increased, you should contact the management company or the office of the resource supplier for clarification.

What are the benefits of using metering devices?

It's quite simple. The resource consumption standards set at the federal level actually exceed the required amount consumed by each person. For example, the water consumption standard for an apartment building per person is 4.85 m3 of cold water and 4.01 m3 of hot water.

This means that the average family of 3 people consumes 14.55 m3 of cold water and 12.03 m3 of hot water according to the standards. By multiplying these values by the tariff and the increasing factor of 1.6, you can get a fairly impressive amount to pay.

For how long you need to keep receipts for housing and communal services, see this article.

In reality, this same family consumes several cubic meters less of both hot and cold water. By installing water meters in your apartment, you pay only for the amount of resources actually consumed. In addition, no additional coefficient is applied to you.

How much to pay if you don’t have a meter, see this video:

As a result, you save a significant amount every month. On average, installing meters pays for itself in about six months. More detailed information on hot and cold water consumption standards, as well as current tariffs, can be obtained on the website of the Unified Settlement Center.

How to get a subsidy to pay for utilities, read the link.

So, from January 2020, all citizens who have not yet installed metering devices will face a significant increase in the cost of paying for utility services in the form of a coefficient of 1.6. And since both the prices for services and the increasing coefficient are constantly growing, you should seriously think about installing meters in your home.

When the absence of meters is beneficial

There are no meters not only in cases where their installation is technically impossible, but also for the purpose of extracting benefits, when the actual consumption of water and electricity resources is much greater than what is charged on the receipt, based on the number of registered residents.

For example, two people are registered in an apartment, but in fact five or more people live and use water and electrical appliances. In the receipt, the calculation is made taking into account the number of registered citizens, and the rest use the resources for free. In such a situation, it is more profitable for the owner to pay according to the standard without installing meters.

You can bring the actual volume of consumption and payment into line by installing meters. For this reason, the state is taking measures to encourage the population to install metering devices. In addition, paying for consumed resources by meter forces us to use natural resources more carefully.

Video about using counters

When deciding to install a meter, owners should calculate the associated costs in advance: they will have to buy the device and pay for its installation. Practice shows that in the future, the initial costs will be quickly compensated by savings from payment based on device readings without the use of an increasing tariff.

Increasing factor

1.5 (or 50% of the standard) - from January 1, 2020 (applies only to utility services for hot water supply, hot water supply and electricity supply)

1. If metering devices are not installed, if technically possible.

2. If a failed metering device is not restored within 3 months.

3. If the service life of the meter expired more than 3 months ago.

4. After 3 billing periods, if the utility service provider is not allowed to check metering devices 2 or more times.

When the multiplying factor is not applied

If metering devices are installed and readings are transmitted in a timely manner, the increasing factor is not applied. Charges are made based on meter readings and established tariffs.

Details about the increasing coefficient for the board size

The adopted Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated N 232 “On amendments to certain acts of the Government of the Russian Federation” and Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated N 603 “On amendments to certain acts of the Government of the Russian Federation on the provision of utility services” are directly related to the development of sales of our company.

Vladimir Ilyasov, head of the sales management department, explains what the main changes that will occur in relations with our clients in connection with this document are.

The main changes are related to the presence or absence of metering devices for consumers of heat, electricity, hot and cold water.

Since July 1, 2020, the increasing coefficient has been approved by the Government of the Russian Federation, which does not require local confirmation. From July 1, 2020, the RSO (resource supply organization) and providers of utility services are required to apply an increasing coefficient when calculating citizens' payments for utility services for hot water supply, cold water supply and electricity supply (from January 1, 2020, utility services for heating are excluded). From January 1, 2020, the value of the increasing coefficient is set at 1.5. That is, the payment for electricity, cold and hot water automatically increases by 50 percent!

From January 1, 2020 for heating, an increasing coefficient will be applied to the utility resource supplied only to management companies, homeowners' associations, housing cooperatives, in the amount of 1.1. Thus, the payment increases by 10 percent!

This standard applies to those who do not have individual meters in their apartment that record the consumption of electricity, cold and hot water.

For consumers who do not have the technical ability to install metering devices, which must be confirmed by the relevant act, nothing changes - they pay for consumption based on basic consumption standards, without increasing factors.

The main question that our clients are now asking is: how to avoid increasing payments for electricity, heat, cold water and hot water? We can answer it.

The Resolution states that, if technically possible, the owner in the apartment is required to have apartment meters for electricity, cold water and hot water. The Resolution also stipulates that, if technically possible, an apartment building is required to have a communal building metering device (installed by the RSO if there is an agreement with the management company/homeowners association), which measures the thermal energy consumed for heating.

If these conditions are met, the payer is exempt from applying an increasing coefficient to him, since the calculation is made not according to the standard, but according to the actual readings of the metering devices.

How to pay for electricity without a meter? In what cases should the consumer pay according to average consumption, and in what cases - according to the standard? In what cases is the fee charged according to the standard with an increasing factor? And how, after all, is it more profitable to pay for electricity - according to the meter or according to the standard? Visitors to EnergoVOPROS.ru often ask these kinds of questions. Let's try to figure it out.

Paying for electricity without a meter: what the current legislation says

Probably everyone knows how electricity charges are calculated if an electricity meter is installed and working properly in an apartment.

There is a counter. There is his testimony. Take the number of kilowatt-hours spent per month and multiply it by the current tariff in your region. You receive the amount you need to pay for electricity consumption. It's simple!

But how is electricity payment calculated without a meter? Current legislation reduces the variety of life situations to the following options:

there is a meter, but its readings were not transmitted on time (in accordance with the established procedure)
There is a meter, but it turned out to be faulty (it broke down, the verification period has expired)
There is a meter, but representatives of the energy supply service provider are not allowed to see it
there is a meter, but upon inspection it turned out that it was deliberately damaged (or electricity was connected past the meter)
Finally, there is simply no counter. And this situation is by no means uncommon.

How the fee for electricity supply service is calculated in each of these cases is described in detail in the Rules for the provision of utility services.

This document was approved by Government Decree No. 354 of May 6, 2011 No. 354 “On the provision of utility services to owners and users of premises in apartment buildings and residential buildings.” Since then, numerous changes have been made to it. The current version of the Rules can be found, for example, here.

Following the Rules, let's look at the options listed above.

Payment for electricity if meter readings are not submitted on time

Start over. In order to be able to pay for electricity based on meter readings, you need to transfer these readings to the person who supplies you with electricity.

How to transmit meter readings? When? To whom? These questions are quite appropriate and deserve separate analysis. In short, the readings are transmitted either to the energy sales company (your electricity supplier), or to the management company of your home, or through a city (regional) settlement center.

There are also several other ways. But here and now it is important to note that if the meter readings are not transmitted, then you will not be able to pay for electricity using them. Looks fair.

So, if you have not provided meter readings, the electricity fee is determined based on your average monthly consumption.

“Average monthly” consumption in this case is calculated based on the readings that you took (or they were obtained, for example, during a check of your meter) over the past six months.

The exception referred to in the Rules is in cases where payments on the meter began less than six months before the moment you did not transmit its readings. For example, the meter was delivered to you in June, but in October you did not provide the readings. In this case, your average monthly electricity consumption for the period of actual operation of the meter is taken as a basis. But not less than 3 months.

You didn’t submit your testimony for one month, the second, the third... What’s next? Starting from the fourth month, during which you do not submit meter readings, you will be transferred to payment according to the standards. See what it looks like here.

If you are interested in how the above is formulated in the Rules for the Provision of Public Utilities, then you need to study clause 59 (b) of this document.

Payment for electricity if the meter turns out to be (was found) faulty

Let's imagine: you somehow discovered that your meter is faulty. It was destroyed during repair work. Damaged in a fire. It just stopped working, and even you can see it. Alternatively, it was stolen. Either its verification period has expired, or its service life has expired... How is the payment for light calculated in this case?

The situation is described by paragraph 59 (a) of the Rules for the Provision of Public Utilities. First of all, the moment of occurrence of the “event” is determined, that is, when exactly is the metering device considered faulty (lost)?

This may be the date of your statement to the energy sales company about a faulty meter. Or the date of drawing up a report on the malfunction of the meter based on the results of its inspection by an inspector. Or the expiration date of the meter's verification interval. If there is no exact date, then the month (payment period) in which the “event” occurred is taken as the “reference point”.

From this date you will be transferred to payment based on average monthly consumption. Average monthly consumption is calculated in the same way as in the previous paragraph - based on the last six months.

However, “on average” you will only be paid for three months in a row. After which they will transfer to payments according to the standard. How the electricity fee is calculated according to the standard, see here.

It is worth noting that for some time now, consumers whose electricity meter has failed and who have been living without a meter for more than three months have been charged according to the standard with an increasing factor of 1.5. So it would be good to hurry up with the installation of a new meter.

Legislation on housing and communal services tariffs

Nowadays, those increases that were planned since 2009 are being implemented. Then Law No. 261-FZ was issued, establishing tariffs and standards for all types of utility resources.

The procedure for imposing fines due to the lack of metering devices has not yet been approved, however, measures taken by the state are forcing the installation of meters by introducing high coefficients used in calculating housing and communal services for apartments and houses that do not transmit readings of resource consumption to the relevant supervisory authorities.

There are still some ambiguities in the procedure for applying the new increasing coefficients that are not explained by the laws of the Russian Federation. In 2011, the Government of Russia issued Resolution No. 354, in the 31st paragraph of which subclause “u” appears, imposing the obligation to transfer overpayments on utility bills when applying increasing coefficients for the implementation of energy saving programs and measures for the efficient use of energy resources. Subsequently, in 2013, the Russian Government introduced changes to acts related to the regulation of the provision of utility services.

According to current legislation, the application of the coefficient in 2020 is provided for in the following circumstances:

a residential building or apartment in an apartment building does not have water and electricity meters;
meters in housing are installed, but need to be repaired or replaced due to breakdown or expiration of service life;
if a breakdown or damage to metering devices is detected, the law allows the tariff to be maintained for a period of no more than 3 months in order to eliminate the breakdown or correct a defect, and if one’s duties are ignored, an increasing factor will be applied to the housing;
the owner of the property did not provide employees of the management company or HOA with access to the devices, and as a result, checking the readings and technical condition of the meters becomes impossible.

Housing and communal services receipts contain separate lines providing calculation using a multiplying factor. This allows owners to see the real difference between payments with and without increasing tariffs.

Installation of devices in private homes and apartments is done independently, and employees of management companies are hired to equip apartment buildings with communal meters for heating and electricity.

Social norms for electricity consumption.

On the reinstitutionalization of splinters

26.08.2013

Alexander Vinogradov,

Lead Analyst

— And nothing shocked you? - asked Bemish. - Mass culture,

this advertising is stupid... Many people say that earthlings have too much

too much possessions and too little being. They use Veya as an example.

“If anyone is unhappy, let them come.” I will send them to my

Inis mines and I will arrange for them... a lot of existence.

– Yu. Latynina, “Insider”

Primo

To begin with, let me remind you that starting in September of this year, some regions of the country will be experimenting with the introduction of a certain “social norm” for electricity consumption, and starting in 2014, these innovations will be introduced throughout the country. The price of a kilowatt-hour within the framework of this standard will, as they promise, be somewhat lower than the current one, and everything that is higher than it will become two to three times more expensive over time. Officials say that the standard will be selected so that 70% of the region's households fit into it; I have to say, there are reasonable doubts here. At the moment, there is information that the average base rate will be 70 kWh per month - frankly speaking, not much, and if several people live in an apartment or house, then it is expected to add no more than 50 kWh for the second person registered, and on the third or fourth – no more than 20 kWh.

Now, in fact, these energy rations are installed differently in different regions. Thus, in the Vladimir region, the established energy ration ranges from 50 to 90 kWh, depending on the type of household, while the cost of 1 kWh within the norm is 2.81 rubles, and for everything that is above the norm - 3.55 rubles , more than a quarter more expensive. There is an even more significant difference in the Trans-Baikal Territory - with a norm of 65 kWh, the preferential tariff there is 2.28 rubles versus 3.78 rubles for excess consumption. For comparison, in Moscow I now pay 4.5 rubles per 1 kWh, which is already quite consistent with the average European rate; It can be assumed that after the introduction of energy rations in Moscow, the cost, based on calculations similar to the regions, will be more than 6 rubles per kWh.

Actually, against this background, information about

that, for example, in Krasnoyarsk the social ration turned out to be more expensive than the tariff established before its introduction (1.28 rubles versus 1.12);

that it is planned that energy prices for the population will rise faster than for industrial enterprises;

that the average cost of electricity at the exit from the power plant in 2012 was only 17.5 kopecks per 1 kWh;

that average per capita consumption per month according to modern consumer standards (with a computer, microwave, air conditioner, dishwasher, refrigerator and washing machine) is about 170-200 kWh (of course, less in the case of family use)

that at an above-standard tariff (after all, there will not be enough rations, which clearly becomes clear even when calculating according to the consumption standards established by officials) you will have to pay for general house energy costs (for example, for elevators and light bulbs in the entrances);

and that a year after the introduction of energy rations, it is planned to introduce water rations (and this despite all the losses in the water supply networks)

is just the icing on a wonderful cake prepared for us by our equally wonderful government.

Secundo

This, however, is not about that. I have been diligently thinking about this executive order (signed by the current Prime Minister, Dmitry Medvedev), trying my best to approach it solely from the position of a well-behaved, loyal and respectable citizen, which, of course, I am. And as a result of these reflections, I came to the conclusion that our popularly elected and absolutely legitimate government, in its great wisdom, is gradually preparing the tax-paying electorate for the reinstitutionalization of the torch as the main source of light in households, and, probably, not only in them, because why stop on what has been achieved?

Indeed, if you think about it carefully, you can see very significant advantages in this.

It should be noted right away that the problem with the Internet will be solved immediately and radically. As every well-behaved, loyal and respectable citizen knows, these very Internets are inhabited exclusively by pedophiles, homosexuals and oppositionists, rocking the boat of stability day and night. In addition, computer viruses, pirates and pornography also pose dangers. It is obvious that, having returned to the torch, one will no longer be afraid of all this. I'm not even talking about the complete destruction of various extremist materials.

In addition, positive changes await the situation with demography and agriculture. With the second, everything is clear - there is no need for refrigerators, and accordingly the need to store food in the traditional way - in cellars - will lead to an outflow of the urban population to the countryside, which, due to the increase in the number of workers, will immediately increase food production. Yesterday's manager, who soullessly sold Chinese consumer goods to the same unfortunate man, will gain an understanding of the meaning of life by bringing manure to the fields. As for demographics, we must understand that the need for something pleasant will not go away, but the disappearance of energy-based entertainment from life will very quickly lead to a more intensive use of old methods of relaxation, tested over centuries and millennia.

Unfortunately, there are some risks of deterioration in the situation with industrial output. But, I am sure, this will not affect the country’s defense capability. But even if so, then, remembering modern Russian mass culture, which shows us that in the recent past, Red Army soldiers fought the enemy with one rifle between three, fought and won, it is difficult to see a danger in this, because nothing can resist the fighters even without rifles, inspired by spirituality and armed with shovel handles.

Certain difficulties are also possible with propaganda, or more precisely, with conveying truthful information to the electorate. After all, there will be no “first channel” anymore. On the other hand, I remember very well how in the spring of 2008, on the day of the presidential elections, vans with loudspeakers drove along the streets of Moscow. One of them stopped in front of my house, attracted everyone’s attention within a half-kilometer radius, yelling a song about unlined felt boots, after which he suggested that we go and relieve ourselves, sorry, vote. In a word, this problem can also be solved.

But most importantly, this will allow us to consume significantly less fossil fuel and, accordingly, sell more of it, thereby maintaining the status of an energy superpower rising from its knees. In general, electricity will have to be supplied exclusively to government agencies, which, by definition, are the stronghold of the vertical of power.

Tertio

The sarcasm is over. It didn't last long.

I wonder if an official who passed a bad law or resolution was hung by his private part on a city wall, which ligaments would be the first to break?

I still think it’s voice.

The procedure for applying the increasing coefficient

To determine the amount of payment for a utility resource, it is necessary to multiply a certain standard for resource consumption by the value of the coefficient. The received data and the amount of overpayment are indicated in the housing and communal services receipt.

The procedure is regulated by Government Decree No. 354 of the year (subparagraph “d” of paragraph 69). This Decree defines the rules for the provision of services by public utilities for residents of apartment buildings and private houses.

When determining the calculation procedure, they proceed from the specific circumstances of the application:

A water meter (cold and hot), as well as an electricity control unit, are not installed in the apartment.
The apartment building is not equipped with a common building heat meter.
The parking lot of the house does not have a water and electricity meter.
Individual devices in the apartment building have broken down or their service life has expired.
The executor, a representative of the supervisory authority, drew up an act indicating the denial of access to the meter located in the owner’s apartment.
It is not determined by the power of the equipment inside the apartment, which is unauthorizedly connected by the owner to intra-building utilities.
During the inspection, the fact of unauthorized intervention in the functioning of the meter in a room where there is no free access was revealed (intervention is possible only with the consent of the consumer) and a corresponding act was drawn up.

Document overview

Clarifications were given on the issue of applying an increasing coefficient to the amount of payment for utility services. In particular, the following is stated.

The increasing factor does not increase the volume of utilities sold. This is a measure aimed at stimulating consumers to install, timely repair and replace metering devices used in calculations.

If the provider of public services is a resource supplying organization, then the proceeds, taking into account increasing coefficients, form income used to cover expenses for regulated activities.

If the contractor is a management company, then the funds generate income that can be used to implement energy saving measures.

In the absence of a collective (general house) heat metering device, if it is technically possible to install it, the resource supplying organization applies an increasing factor of 1.1 to the amount of the heating fee billed to the management organization. The coefficient is not applicable to consumers.

It is explained how to calculate heating charges in an apartment building that is equipped with a collective (community) heat metering device and in which not all premises are equipped with individual and (or) common (apartment) metering devices (distributors).

If an apartment building is equipped with a common building (collective) metering device, but all residential premises are not equipped with individual metering devices, then the payment for heating in non-residential premises based on the actual volume of heat energy consumption of the individual metering device cannot be calculated.

To eliminate the costs of management companies in paying the cost of heat energy using a multiplying factor, it is recommended to inform the owners of premises in an apartment building about their obligation to install a collective (common house) metering device.

How to check the correctness of the standard calculation

In the “Tariffs and Prices” section for legal entities, there are also links to peak hours and tariffs for regulated services. The most important document when holding a general meeting of owners of premises in an apartment building is the protocol, which reflects all their decisions.

Electricity consumption standards per person without a meter: in 2020

General house electricity needs are part of the resource that is spent on maintaining and providing lighting to a high-rise building, outside the share of electricity that the owner uses within his residential property.

This is necessary so that the state receives leverage to encourage the population to save light. And those individuals who do not intend to reduce energy consumption will be forced to pay for the service at a higher cost - approximately at the level of small businesses.

Increasing factor

4 For electricity

5 For owners of private houses

In residential premises, if technically possible, special devices must be installed that take into account the consumption of water and energy resources. In addition to individual meters directly in apartments, it is necessary to install communal meters. This measure encourages residents to save on expensive services. There are standards and regional tariffs for utilities. In the case where homeowners have not installed metering devices, a multiplying factor (abbreviated as PC) is applied to the calculation of consumption. The value of the coefficient is 1.5 (or 50% of the standard) - from January 1, 2020 (applies only to utility services for hot water supply, hot water supply and electricity supply) When it works

If metering devices are not installed, if technically possible.
If a failed metering device is not restored within 3 months.
If the service life of the meter expired more than 3 months ago.
After 3 billing periods, if the utility service provider is not allowed to check metering devices 2 or more times.

When the increasing factor is not applied If the metering devices are installed and the readings are transmitted in a timely manner, the increasing factor is not applied. Charges are made based on meter readings and established tariffs.

Increasing coefficients for water and electricity payments will take effect from July 1

"" has already reported that in the spring the standards for individual consumption of utility resources were updated in the region. And from July 1, the population’s payments for water and electricity will also be affected by the so-called increasing coefficients.

Svetlana Fomina

Let us immediately emphasize that all this is relevant for those who have not yet equipped their homes with metering devices and, accordingly, do not pay for electricity and water according to the actual volume of their use. What is the mentioned multiplying factor? We addressed this pressing issue to the head of the Stavropol City Settlement Center, Svetlana Fomina.

– Let me start with the fact that the process of reforming the housing and communal services sector, which has been launched on a large scale in our country, is aimed, among other things, at saving resources, since their wasteful use remains one of the reasons for the increase in tariffs. By and large, by installing metering devices, consumers save not only their own money, but also utility resources. That is why the authorities are so actively calling on property owners to equip residential premises with modern meters. Actually, the introduction of coefficients is precisely due to the desire to add new dynamics to the campaign to “equip” housing.

So, what awaits those who have not installed individual utility meters? Unfortunately, increased charges. From July 1, payments for electricity, cold and hot water supply will be calculated according to consumption standards established for a specific category of residential premises, taking into account an increasing factor. Its size in the first six months – until December 31, 2020 – will be 1.5. And since January 2020 – 1.6. All this will be reflected in the payment orders that the population will receive in August (when payment for resources for July will be made).

Let me emphasize once again that this directly concerns those who do not have meters in their apartments and private houses. Those whose devices are faulty or have not been verified in a timely manner will find themselves in the same situation. But owners who do not provide information on meter readings on time are also at risk. In this case, the utility service provider has the right to check the condition of the devices and the reliability of their readings. If its specialists are not allowed into the premises two or more times, a corresponding act is drawn up, and utility bills are calculated based on consumption standards using increasing factors.

Although the innovation will not affect residents in whose apartments it is technically impossible to install metering units. In this case, the owners will need to contact the management company or the HOA and receive an inspection report confirming that it is not technically possible to install individual meters.

But at the same time, I note that in the process of preparing for calculations under the new conditions, SGRTs sent inquiries to the management companies of Stavropol about how many similar apartments there are in the regional center. From the answers it follows that almost all premises of multi-apartment housing stock can now be “tidyed up”. However, according to SGRTs, approximately 12 thousand apartments are not yet equipped with individual meters for cold water consumption, about 6.5 thousand hot water. There are no electricity meters in approximately 2.8 thousand apartments in Stavropol.

I am sure that for most of their owners, installing resource metering devices will be a profitable investment. Although, of course, everyone must decide this question for themselves.

There is no counter - there is a coefficient / Newspaper “Stavropolskaya Pravda” / June 20, 2020

Exceptions to the rules

The legislation of the Russian Federation requires that funds received from owners who have not installed meters be allocated, additionally as a result of applying the coefficient, to the maintenance of existing systems.

There is some deviation that exempts from increased tariffs in the following circumstances:

in everyday life, hot water obtained by converting it into a heating source is used;
consumption of water resources and electricity by residents of communal apartments;
use of water resources in wastewater disposal;
technical impossibility of installing metering devices due to the design features of the house.

Houses where installing meters is not possible include dilapidated houses, dilapidated buildings that are subject to demolition, and buildings that require major repairs.

There is one more indicator that must be met when exempting from the increasing factor: energy consumption - no more than 5 kilowatts, heating - up to 0.2 gCal/hour.

In the above-mentioned houses, neither representatives of the management company nor employees of certain utility services have the right to carry out an examination to determine the possibility of installing devices. Limiting criteria, as a rule, are reflected in the main technical documentation of the objects.

In what cases should a multiplying factor be applied?

Since January 2020, the requirements for the use of an increasing coefficient for electricity for the population of the Moscow region and residents of other regions have not changed - in the absence of a meter, the cost of the heat exchanger increases noticeably in comparison with the standard standard. PC is used in two main situations:

the owner of the premises did not install an individual electricity meter when it was possible to do so;
the metering device failed and it was not promptly replaced with a new one.

The use of an increasing coefficient for electricity is a new attempt to encourage citizens to install metering devices on the part of the state so that further payments for housing and communal services in cities are carried out precisely according to their readings. This is explained by the economic disadvantage of paying according to the standard.

Clue!
Why is a wireless electricity monitoring and metering system useful?
An electricity meter is the property of the consumer, so he is the one responsible for its technical condition. If the period of operation of the control unit ends or it fails for some reason, then the owner of the premises himself solves these problems. He is given three months to do this, after which the PC begins to be used in calculations.

Electricity meters are not always located in common premises, and access to them by representatives of the management company or network organization in such cases is carried out only with the knowledge of the owner of the premises. If the executor of the control system is not allowed to access the metering device 2 times or more, then an increasing coefficient also begins to be substituted in the formulas. These and other measures continue to apply as they are prescribed in Government Decree No. 354 dated.

The ultimate goal of using a multiplying factor when calculating electricity charges is to encourage property owners to save energy and rationally use energy and other resources.

A PC in the absence of a meter will not be used if it is technically impossible to install it. This fact requires confirmation, for which a corresponding act is drawn up. Residents in such a situation continue to pay for the service according to the old scenario - using the standard and without substituting an increasing coefficient into the formula.

Other things to consider

If resource consumption standards were calculated during the period when the property owner did not live in the apartment (and other persons did not use the premises), then the citizen will have to contact the Criminal Code with a request to recalculate. To do this, you will need to prepare the following package of documents:

handwritten statement;
a certificate from the city council about all registered persons;
personal documents of such citizens;
confirmation of temporary absence (temporary registration at another place of residence, documents from the hospital about inpatient treatment, a copy of the business trip order).

Many property owners have heard about the concept of electricity standards for the population, but few know what this means in practice. This issue is regulated at the legislative level.

In this review, we will tell you in detail about all the nuances of calculating energy consumption standards, and also tell you what indicators are used to keep records.

The size of the increasing coefficient and calculation of payment

Despite the increase in electricity tariffs from July 1, 2019, the size of the increasing coefficient used in calculations according to the standards remained the same. In standard cases of absence or malfunction of electricity meters, it is 1.5. However, this is not the limit value.

If a consumer is connected to the power grid unauthorized and it is impossible to reliably determine the volume of resource consumed by him, then a multiplying factor of 10 can be used.

Network organizations consider consuming electrical energy bypassing the meter to be a more serious punishment, which is why they are punished more severely for it. Such a consumer will be forced to pay for the entire stolen resource. Its size is calculated in two ways:

all electrical appliances connected bypassing the meter are rewritten, and the number of kilowatt-hours consumed is calculated based on the fact that they worked around the clock;
if the power of the connected devices cannot be determined, then the standard standard for electricity consumption is used, which is multiplied by an increasing factor of 10.

In addition, the PC will be used in situations where unauthorized interference in the operation of the electric meter is detected. The volume of utilities here is calculated depending on the number of people living in the apartment on a permanent or temporary basis. However, the management company does not always have accurate information about the number of residents. In this case, calculations are made taking into account the number of owners of the premises. When using this technique, the calculated payment will increase noticeably, which will force violators to fix problems.

Clue!

How to understand that the IPU is faulty and its readings cannot be used for work

Resolution No. 1498 explains in detail what is meant by unauthorized interference with the operation of the meter. Previously, this included only missing control seals and obvious damage to the case, which made it possible to interfere with the operation of the device. Now, cracks and holes not provided for by the manufacturer, as well as loose indicator glass, will be considered violations. All the described signs will be interpreted as confirmation of unaccounted-for consumption of electrical energy, with appropriate sanctions applied to the owners of the premises.

Increasing coefficient for heating

In addition to intra-apartment measuring devices, the management company is obliged to install general devices that measure heat consumption in apartment buildings. If there is metering equipment, residents pay for heat energy not according to the standard, but according to the fact of consumption.

At the end of February 2020, the heating PC was reduced from size 1.5 to 1.1. This is due to the procedure for using funds, which the utility company now has the right to dispose of independently. In 2020, the coefficient remains at 1.1.

The coefficient applies only to apartment owners and legal entities in case of residence or use of the premises for social needs.

Despite the fact that the decree came into effect only in March, resource supply companies (RSCs) are required to recalculate starting from January 2018 to everyone to whom PC was accrued.

What is a multiplying factor?

The increasing coefficient began to be applied in 2020. and was originally 1.1. Because since 2009 and to this day, not all apartment owners have bothered to install PU, the government issued a new law establishing in January 2017. new increasing factor equal to 1.6.

It is obvious that this figure has been constantly increasing (and significantly) for 2 years, and will continue to increase. The increasing coefficient is a numerical expression of the percentage by which the base tariff is increased.

Payment procedure for heating.

The requirement to install individual metering devices does not apply only to buildings in disrepair. To recognize a house as unsafe, an appropriate examination must be carried out.

For such houses, separate standards for resource consumption are established. And since it is not the fault of the residents of such houses for the lack of technical ability to install meters, the increased tariff is not applied to them.

All other residential premises (apartment buildings, communal apartments, private houses) must be equipped with both individual meters for consumed resources and common ones.

How is the multiplying factor applied in the absence of metering devices?

To calculate the cost of supplying a particular utility service, suppliers use a base tariff, which is calculated using the formula:

P = n × N × Tcr,

where: n – the number of residents permanently or temporarily living in the apartment; N – utility consumption standard; Tkr is the tariff (price) for a utility resource established in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation.

The formula shows that the cost of the service directly depends on the number of people registered in the apartment. If IPUs are not installed in the residential premises, then from January 2020. the resulting amount will be multiplied by a factor of 1.6, i.e. by 60%.

Until 2020 an increasing factor was applied to the service consumption standard itself. Now this figure will be used when calculating the cost of the service (i.e. the tariff). In this case, the increased tariff cannot be applied when calculating payment for sewerage.

If citizens have arrears in paying for utility services, then penalties will not be charged on the base tariff, but on the entire amount of the debt, taking into account the increasing coefficient.

How to calculate your own rent for an apartment, see the link.

In what cases is a multiplying factor used?

It is generally accepted that the increasing coefficient applies exclusively to citizens who do not have metering devices, but this is not entirely true. There are a number of other cases that provide grounds for increasing the tariff:

A meter (whether electric or water), like any other device, has its own verification period. For example, for a cold water meter this period is 7 years, for hot water - 5 years. Therefore, if the control device has expired its verification period or is out of order, it must be immediately repaired or verified.
Some apartment owners, due to some circumstances, do not allow representatives of the management company or organization providing the service to access the metering devices. The responsibility of these employees is to check the technical condition of the PU and the accuracy of the data provided by residents. If this situation continues for more than 3 months, expect an increase in payment for services.
There are no individual resource consumption meters in the residential premises.

How to correctly apply the multiplying factor is discussed in this video:

To check water metering devices, you do not need to dismantle them yourself and take them to specialized institutions. It is enough to simply call a specialist from an organization involved in verification to your home.

The whole procedure takes no more than 15 minutes, after which you receive an official verification certificate and are exempt from the tariff increase (a copy of the certificate must be provided to the Unified Settlement Center or your management company).

Why is the increasing coefficient introduced?

Initially, the increasing coefficient was introduced as an incentive measure for the installation of metering devices. This was done for the conscious part of the population who wanted to save resources and not burden their budget with impressive sums for “utilities”.

What is included in the renovation of a residential premises, read here.

Equipping residential premises with meters would significantly reduce the consumption of water, electricity and heat and save the population’s finances, because tariff increases always hit the average person’s wallet hard.

Calculation with and without an increasing coefficient for housing and communal services.

But there are cases when many more citizens live in an apartment than are registered in it. And they all mindlessly consume resources, not caring about saving them, and do not consciously install metering devices. At the same time, payment for services for such citizens is underestimated.

Is it possible to achieve a recalculation of utilities, details here.

Service providers have no other measure of influence on such citizens other than introducing an increasing coefficient. However, they do not calculate this coefficient independently; this is within the competence of regional government bodies.

The officials did not further elaborate, but simply applied the coefficients according to the wrong scheme. As a result, utility services were bombarded with complaints from citizens about inflated tariffs.

Indicator size

citizens of retirement age;
families raising a disabled child;
families with disabled people;
large families;
citizens raising adopted children.

A caveat: the unused amount of electricity is not carried over to a future reporting period.

Oryol Region

So, for example, in Moscow, the rate of electricity consumption per person per month, provided that a gas stove is used, is 80 kWh, in St. Petersburg - 78 kWh, in the Perm Territory - 50 kWh, in the Nizhny Novgorod Region - 50 kWh

The Russian government has proposed establishing a social norm for light consumption for the population. The essence of this initiative is for people who use large amounts of electricity to financially compensate for its overconsumption.

The government has established standards for electricity consumption per person, and they are constantly increasing. Thus, the state encourages citizens to install metering devices, which ultimately save resource consumption.

How to reduce electricity consumption?

Much also depends on the type of housing - whether it is a private or multi-apartment building, what is the total area of the property, the number of apartments in the building and the current load of appliances. In addition, the number of rooms in a separate apartment and the number of people living in it matter.

Currently, in the Moscow region there are standards put into force by the order of the Ministry of Housing and Communal Services of the Moscow Region dated December 9, 2014 No. 162-RV “On approval of utility service consumption standards for cold and hot water supply, sanitation, electricity supply and heating.”

Readings for the current month are taken, and readings for the previous month are subtracted from them. The resulting volume of consumption is multiplied by the current electricity tariff. When taking readings from the electricity meter, the numbers must be taken into account up to the decimal point.

Calculation of the cost of electricity according to the standard

In the Moscow region, mass inspections of individual electricity metering devices are being carried out. If the meter is found to be faulty, the consumer is transferred to pay for electricity according to the standard. What does this mean in practical terms? EnergoVOPROS.ru publishes explanations of how the payment for light is calculated according to the meter and in the case of its absence.

In some cases, it may not be technically possible to do this: for example, in dilapidated and dilapidated houses. The impossibility of installing equipment must be documented (inspection report). Important: if a person simply does not want to install an electric meter, then increasing factors will be used when calculating the cost of the service. For such subscribers, the payment for light will increase every year. But there are other situations when the calculation will be carried out using

If there are also no individual metering devices, then the cost of utilities for residential premises is determined by the normative method, and for common property in proportion to the share of each apartment.
If individual appliances are installed in apartments, then payment for the use of resources is based on their indicators. Payment for the maintenance of common property is “spread out” across all apartments in proportion to their share. Their cost is determined taking into account clause 19 of the Rules for the provision of utility services. And this paragraph, in turn, refers to formulas in which regionally approved consumption standards are used to determine prices.
