PRICING & TARIFFS

In general, TNB electricity tariff classification is based on consumer business activity at the said premise and its supply voltage level.  In the event there is changes in activity at the said premise which requires change in consumer tariff category,  the following actions may be taken;

1. Consumer may apply for change of tariff to TNB
2. TNB deserves the right to change consumer's tariff based on actual activity at the said premise
   
   For example, the default tariff for properties or premises such as serviced apartments, SOHO, SOVO and SOFO is Tariff B - Low Voltage Commercial Tariff as these premises are normally built on gazetted commercial lands. However if these premises are used for private dwelling purposes, the owner of these premises may apply for a change of tariff  from Tariff B to Tariff A - Domestic with TNB. Application can be done online via myTNB Portal or at the nearest Kedai Tenaga.
