Default Estimating KWh electicity billing using clamp-on amp meter

Anyone with a 100 amp, single-phase service that is using their service
at 50% for an entire month would tip the scale at a 4300 kwh bill.
Hardly what I'd call justified for utilizing 50% of the smallest
installable utility service.


@Home Guy:

Get a clue, 100-amp is *NOT* the smallest installable utility
service...
It is for houses and buildings but it is not the smallest size of
electrical
service available...

Traffic signal boxes generally have a 30-amp service and there are
pole
mounted equipment cabinets for cable companies that also have small
services in the way of 30-amp/40-amp single phase...
