Not sure how true this is.Was advised if you buy on 1st of every month you get it cheaper than if you buy later. So for the last 3 months I buy 3k worth on the first . Unfortunately they are inconsistent. ..March I got 165 units, April 147, May 149, June 148.

That translates to average 19 to 20 per unit.


KPLC should just educate people more on this.Its important for customers to understand how the units are calculated.But then again......its a monopoly!


yep they should on media,cz we get varied discombobulating responses anytime we inquire.

I have just applied for three phase back at shags and am being told that The company cannot connect it because they units I've put up are not enough to warrant 3 phase, I have tried to argue that this is in the meantime, but they are adamant that the form shows the current/proposed usage is not in tandem regardless of my future plans.

Anyone out there who knows how they operate? The three phase wires are just overhead the place.

Have not applied for a three phase but a friend did and was approved after cat and mouse chase and some sintax. I cant remember the cost but about sh50,000. He had a single posho mill to run and no other premise is using the 3-phase.

They sadly give so many flimsy reasons until you either give up or "negotiate"

Noted. I thought this happens at shags when they want to take you in circles.
