Electricity meters

We used a couple of small private sites a couple of years back and both had meters. We found it was around £1 a day for our usage. 

Better than the £3+ a night some commercial and club sites charge. 

which club site charges £3? 

Well Stratchlyde park has various charges for ehu depending on the time of year.

Where is the information that specifies the various charges for ehu?

Differing pricing bands have nothing to do with ehu.

fully correct, it is the normal club pricing structure

I can't see any mention of a charge for EHU at all on this or any club site, just the normal pitch and per person fee. In fact if it would be a strange EHU charge as it goes down during the colder months?

If you consider a Club economy pitch (no EHU) is £3p,n, cheaper than one with EHU then you conclude the Club is charging about £3 p.n for electricity.

Likewise we manage  most of the time on 6 amp and don't  find it a hardship, it just needw many apliences  are in simultaneous  use. Our kettle is 1080 watt (just checked) and we have never waited 15 minutes  for it boil. 

which UK site is that on?

not too sure that foreign electricity is as good as British, but the point is that firstly this is in the UK touring section, secondly club sites generally have 16A and we don't have to 'manage' (your own words BTW) or be expected to manage on 6amp. Thirdly this is about meters 

I think as a member of this "Club" probably at least as long as you  and quite likey  longer, I am just as  entitled  to have a view on the feasbility of managing to live a civilized life on a variety of amperage power supplies and I dont appreciate your regular attempts to close down any view but your own. 

BTW I am currently managing to survive on 10 amps at €3.8 a day.  

Apologies if it comes across that way David , but I am just posting my own views and answers to your post and others post which I assume I am just as entittled to as you. Which is that club sites have 16A not 10 or 6 and as we are not abroad we do not have to manage (which implies some form of going without) on a reduction

not quite, firstly there are a few sites (three that I've found so far) that charge the same for an EHU and non EHU pitch.

Secondly that extra £3 (or whatever it is) is not all for electricity, some of that £3 could be going to the installation/upkeep of the EHU bollard?

mmm, it's for a pitch on a CC site where electric is sold at differing prices depending on time of year. 

Anybody who has stayed on a German site and had metered electricity will know that the cost is eye-watering. I guess our electricity costs, metered or not, are quite modest in comparison. Nor that we should be complacent.
