The satisfaction a person gets from consumption.
There are four main forms of utility: form utility (changing the physical characteristics of a product to make it more valuable), time utility (making a product available when customers want it), place utility (making a product available where customers want it), and ownership utility (transferring ownership of a product to the customer).
In electrical terminology it is the same as a distribution panel. It gets called a utility panel because it is the first device that is connected to the utility company's service connection when it enters a building. The utility panel is not owned by the utility company, it belongs to the home owner and it his responsibility to ensure that it is installed correctly and safely. In most cases an electrical inspector has to give his recommendation that it be connected.
If you want to know the standard for utility poles call your utility company. The electric company set their own standards. There are some required heights for electric cable in the code. For instance they must be no less than 8' above a roof.
In North America you don't. If the utility company catches you tampering with their meter you could be subjected to a fine and in extreme cases a disconnection from their supply. Once the seal is broken and the meter reader sees the broken seal it is reported to the utility company right away. If you need to get it removed for legitimate reasons call the utility company and they will remove it for you. In certain cases the utility company will allow approved contractors to pull the meter but the contractor has to abide by the utility company's rules.
A watt-hour measures the amount of energy consumed or produced by a device over a period of one hour at a constant rate of one watt. It is commonly used to quantify the energy consumption of electrical devices.
A difference is that with ordinal utility approaches, you cannot numerically measure the level of consumer satisfaction. With cardinal utility approaches, you can to an extent.
When we can not measure in terms of money but we can measure of lavel of satisfaction then it is called cardinal approach
The concept of utility is a measure of consumer satisfaction.
The concept of utility is a measure of consumer satisfaction.
Utility is the term used to measure the satisfaction of goods purchased and used. The concept of utility is abstract, since every person's utility is different.

Satisfaction
In consumer behavior, the satisfaction that consumers get by consuming commodities is utility. A cardinalist thinks that utility can be measured, quantified, and expressed in quantitative terms. An ordinalist thinks that you cannot measure utility in quantitative terms.
When discussing cardinal vs. ordinal, it is helpful to look at what the words mean. The distinguishing factor here is between cardinal and ordinal numbers. Cardinal numbers are 1, 2, 3; ordinal numbers, 1st, 2nd, 3rd. Some crucial differences follow from that. Whereas mathematical operations can be performed on cardinal numbers, they cannot be performed on ordinal numbers. Now, when talking about cardinal utility, it is an attempt to ''measure the utility of various alternatives. When talking about ordinal utility, it is the ''ranking of alternatives.'''' Cardinal utility is, however, an erroneous concept. It is impossible to "measure" utility. People can only say "I prefer A to B", but cannot meaningfully say "I prefer A 2.5 times more than B" or something to that effect. Furthermore, comparisons of utility between different individuals are impossible and meaningless, as well as between the same individual at different points in time (as individuals can and do change their preferences -- that is, ordinal value-scale rankings). Because value is subjective, we cannot measure it and cannot compare between two different people, or even between the same person at different times. To clarify, ordinal utility culminates in value-scales: 1st: A2nd: B3rd: C whereas cardinal utility is the erroneous attempt at measurement: 10utils -- A7utils -- B3utils -- COmar Tawfik.
A utility meter is used to measure utilities such as water, electricity, and gas. It records the amount of each utility consumed by a household or business, typically measured in kilowatt-hours for electricity, cubic feet for gas, and gallons for water.
