Which slab do 250 units fall in?
250 units fall in the 201 to 300 unit slab: Rs 33.10 a unit and a fixed charge of Rs 350 per kW for an un-protected home. Un-protected homes pay one rate on every unit of the month, set by the slab the total falls in.
There is no protected rate above 200 units. A 250-unit month is billed at un-protected rates, and a home that was protected loses that status until it has six months in a row at 200 units or less.
How close is 250 to the next slab?
250 units is 50 units below the top of the 201 to 300 slab. Crossing 300 units moves every unit of the month to Rs 36.46: for a 1 kW un-protected home, 301 units would cost about Rs 1,320 more than 300.

What else changes a 250-unit bill?
Your sanctioned load, the month the fuel adjustment was based on, and any arrears can all move the bill away from this estimate.
- Sanctioned load. The fixed charge is Rs 350 for each kW at this slab, so a 2 kW home pays about Rs 12,463 in all. See MEPCO fixed charges per kW.
- The fuel adjustment. It is charged on the units of an earlier month, not this one. This month's rate is on MEPCO fuel and quarterly adjustments.
- The debt servicing surcharge. Rs 3.23 a unit for un-protected homes and Rs 0.43 for protected ones, under NEPRA's decision of 30 March 2023.
- Arrears and late payment. Unpaid amounts from earlier bills and the late payment surcharge are not in this estimate.
