<p>yeah that is what i meant. i think they buy it from the network
which serves as a 'middleman' to the generators, because the
prices for the same company and tariff vary depending what network
you are in over here. so presumably they pick and choose their
power sources, and then the network charges them a fee to use them
over that network.<br>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Here there is the company that I buy
my electricity from. They buy it from the distribution network
that I am connected to. <br>
So I can have a choice of who I buy from .. but my network does
not change. <br>
I am not certain if these firms buy it directly from the network
.. or some other body that then sees to the network and the
power generators as separate things. <br>

<p>just something to mention about distribution companies here
anyway, we have the network, then we have the company? so for
example my network is UK power network, but my company is
utilita? however in other areas (still in the uk) they would
have a different network altogether<br>

<div>Yes, I agree that in most cases voltage doesn't change
much for a given city. But something that will change
frequently is the source (here in Madagascar mostly from a
distribution company, a generator, or individual solar
panels).</div>
<div>And maybe another good idea is to omit those voltage
and possibly redundant details, and put sources directly
as values on the main tag (like how most of the few
existing electricity=* tags seem to be used). So we would
have something like:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>utility:electricity=yes - there is electricity
feeding the building but the source is not defined</li>
<li>utility:electricity=no - there is no electricity
source at all</li>
<li>utility:electricity=generator/company/solar/windmill...
- there is electricity and the source is known</li>
</ul>
<div>Thanks.</div>

the idea is also to be able to use a

</span> Most hoses in Australia have 240 v single
phase supplied to them. Then they have 'standard'
(here) GPOs of 10 Amp capacity. Some have one or more
higher 15 Amp capacity outlets.<br>
And then there are some houses that have 3 phase 415v
supplied to them - and they have 'standard' (here)
GPOs of 10 Amp capacity, possibly one or more 15 Amp
capacity outlets and one or more 3 phase outlets. <br>
<br>
So here you have in one neighbourhood 3 different
instances of electricity presence in houses. <br>
