<div dir="ltr">Landon-<br><br>I think what you are tyring to do is create a complicated utility rate structure. You do not need to create different electric meters to do this. It can get a little tricky depending on how complicated your rate structure is, but basically in the 'utility and economics' tab you need to create different 'blocks' that relate to the varying charges. These blocks will operate on different schedules that correlate to peak or off peak time of days. I would recommend taking a look at the complex California utility rates provided in the eQuest wizard to get an idea of how they work.<br>

<div><span><font face="Arial" size="2">Does anyone have any
experience using time of use periods on electric meters in eQuest? I have a
large commercial building that I started modeling and am now in the detailed
edit mode. I recently found out that the electric bills have an on-peak charge
period and an off-peak charge period. Currently it is just outputting the
total electrical consumption, and I need to have it output electric
consumption for each time of use period to calculate an accurate savings. Any
guidance or suggestions would be appreciated.</font></span></div>
