    Hi Guys,

    My home currently has single-phase electricity and since I consume more than 400 units per month it make sense to switch to 3 phase current which costs 22Rs per unit (22X400 =8800 normal 13423.50).
    What I want to know is the changes involved in such conversion and what is the cost of each change?

    Appreciate it if anyone can assist with this.

    3 phace won't change your number of units that you consume and you will still be in the domastic tariff so the charges will be the same. And you will have to change your house wiring also

    True but the 3phase have a flat rate and single-phase doest. Therefore 3phase is cheaper when you consume a high number of units.

    Maybe you are right. I am not sure about that. I need to ask someone who is working in Leco it seems. Thanks
