NERSA’s decision does not say whether these tariffs include VAT. Municipal tariffs are normally quoted without it, so we have added 15%.
500 kWh in a 30-day summer month, prepaid, 60 A single-phase supply, VAT included:
1. Domestic supply: single phase, two-part (30 A, 45 A and 60 A) (Tariff 1.A)R2,216.48+R173.67 (+8.5%) on 2025/26

| Capacity charge | 60 A × R7.8104 | R468.62 |
| Energy | 500 kWh × 291.75c | R1,458.75 |
| VAT at 15% | R289.11 | |
| For the month | R2,216.48 |
