It is measured in kilowatts (kW) and is an important factor to consider because it directly influences your electric bill. The contracted power determines how many and which appliances you can use simultaneously without exceeding the capacity of your electrical installation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">On your electricity bill, the contracted power is reflected in the <b>power term<\/b>, which is a fixed cost that you pay each month, regardless of your actual energy consumption. This cost is calculated by multiplying the kW of contracted power by the number of days of the billing period and by the price per kW established in your tariff. For example, if you have 4.6 kW contracted and the kW price is 4 \u20ac\/kW per month, you will pay 18.40 \u20ac each month for the power term, regardless of how much electricity you consume.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The choice of the contracted power is crucial because it affects both your comfort and your monthly expenses. <b>If you contract a power that is too low<\/b>, you could experience frequent power cuts when using several appliances simultaneously. <b>If you contract a power that is too high<\/b>, you will pay more each month in the power term unnecessarily, which will increase your bill unnecessarily. It is advisable to adjust the contracted power according to your real needs and consumption habits to optimize your electricity bill.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The contracted power is the maximum amount of energy you can use at the same time in your home or business without tripping the circuit breakers.
