The existing approach to electricity metering, which underlies the formation of payment for consumed electricity, has a significant drawback. It can be correctly used in systems with a sinusoidal symmetrical mode, but needs to be improved in other network modes. The article defines indicators that numerically reflect the effect of distortions on the modes of distribution electric networks, as well as indicators that take into account consumed inactive power (by analogy with reactive power in a sinusoidal mode) when paying electricity bills to an electricity supplier. The proposed principles of electricity consumption metering includes the influence of such indicators as the spectral composition of voltage and current, the ratio of linear and nonlinear loads of consumers, as well as the influence of the topology of the electric network.
