What is the meaning of Peak period and Off Peak period?

Some electricity supply utility companies offer electric power at cheaper charge rates during their "off-peak" period each day, for example in "Cents per kiloWatt-hour". (The actual charge obviously depends on what your local money is.) The "peak" period is usully during normal daytime hours and the "off-peak" period is usually during the night. The start and finish times for these periods are controlled by a time clock connected to the electricity meter which has to be "dual-charge-rate" meter to record the total electricity used at the two different charging rates. As you don't say where you live, the best answer to help you is to advise you to contact your local electricity supplier to ask for the local electricity charging rates and the times of day for peak and off-peak electricity supply periods.

Do you have off peak electricity?

Electricity is usually off peak when less people are using it so there is less demand on the power grid. This is typically the middle of the night, and in some cases the middle of the day. As long as you don't mind using your electricity at these times then off-peak electricity is fine, but most people prefer to use electricity in the afternoon, evening, and in the morning, so it tends to be more expensive then. its not an offence to touch a dog.


What are the peak months for travel from Australia?

FROM Australia, would obviously depend on destination. Within Australia, school holidays (especially the summer break) and Christmas are the peak times. TO Australia would depend on where one's destination in the country. Winter (approx. May-September) is the peak time in the tropical north (it's too hot and humid in summer and heavy rain often makes roads impassible), while summer is a more popular time for travel in the south, especially as the school break over Christmas is by far the longest. Outside Tasmania, hot conditions (40+ degrees C) are possible right through summer.
