Residential Electric Customers: Could you have money with PSE&G’s RLM Rate?
If most of your electric usage occurs during non-peak hours. PSE&G’s offers a pricing option that you should consider. For example, if you operate appliances when most people are asleep or change an electric vehicle overnight, a “time-of-day” rate (also known as the Residential Load Management or “RLM” rate) may benefit you. This rate is available for residential electric customers on a voluntary basis.
What is the RLM Rate?
The RLM rate varies the price of electricity between ‘peak’ and ‘off-peak’ hours of the day and by season. If you choose to be billed on this rate, you will pay a higher rate during ‘peak’ hours (7:00am-9:00pm, Monday through Friday) and a lower rate during ‘off-peak’ hours (9:00am-7:00am and anytime on weekends).
Will my electric bill be higher or lower on the RLM rate?
Compared to your current rate, the amount of your electric bill on the RLM rate will be determined by the appliances you own and your own ability to move your electricity usage to off peak times. Since these factors are different for each customer, it is not possible to determine in advance whether your electric bill would be higher or lower on the RLM rate.
If you switch to the RLM rate, you existing meter will be replaced with a ‘time of day’ meter. Your minimum term of service on the RLM rate will be one year.
Check the Internet and the PSE&G website for the rates.

I am a free-lance writer and Blogger. I am the author of the book "Firehouse 101" (IUniverse.com 2005) part of trilogy of books centered in New York City. My next book "Love Triangles" is finished being edited and should be ready for release in the Fall. My latest book, "Dinner at Midnight", a thriller is on its last chapter. My long awaited book explains the loss of the 2004 Yankee game to Boston.
I work as a Consultant, Adjunct College Professor, Volunteer Fireman and Ambulance member and Blogger. I have a blog site for caregivers called 'bergencountycaregiver', a step by step survival guide to all you wonderful folks taking care of your loved ones, a walking project to walk every block, both sides, of the island of Manhattan "MywalkinManhattan" and discuss what I see and find on the streets of New York and three sites to accompany it. One is an arts site called "Visiting a Museum", where I showcase small museums, historical sites and parks that are off the beaten track both in Manhattan and outside the city to cross reference with "MywalkinManhattan" blog site. Another is "DiningonaShoeStringNYC", featuring small restaurants I have found on my travels in this project, that offer wonderful meals for $10.00 and under. So be on the lookout for updates on all three sites and enjoy 'MywalkinManhattan'. The third is my latest site, "LittleShoponMainStreet", which showcases all the unique and independent shops that I have found on my travels throughout and around Manhattan.
I have started two new blog sites for the fire department, one "EngineOneHasbrouck HeightsFireDepartmentnj" for the Hasbrouck Heights Fire Department to discuss what our Engine Company is doing and the other is "BergenCountyFireman'sHomeAssociation" for the Bergen County Fireman's Association, which fire fighters from Bergen County, NJ, go to the Fireman's Home in Boonton, NJ to bring entertainment and cheer to our fellow brother fire fighters quarterly.
