Hell I remember back in 93 we moved into our new home and had to wait 3 days for electricity so we slept, read, and basically cooked food off the fireplace.

    Well in NZ we have one big electric network and a system for how load is balanced and payments flow between generators and companies supplying to users of the power.

    So while there are exceptions, in general we can choose any company, of which there are about 40.

      And there are some big differences. Genesis charges me nothing extra for 3 phase. Some companies charge 3x the fixed fee for 3 phase.
