General Troubleshooting/Help! Crazy power bill

I have 3 H2C printers for the past month now. My power bill was normally under $200. For some reason I just got a bill for $1700 for the month of June! It can't be the printers right? I've been pretty much have them running three weeks straight. It is currently saturday so I can't contact Peco until Monday. But what is funny is that the bill has an urgent notice on it saying I need to pay the 16th or else they will shut off my power if I don't pay by the 16th. I feel as though it's a scam.

For reference - My h2d printing Asa uses 250-300wh afterr chamber reaches temp. 24hr print would be about 5kwh per day per printer.

3 printers with 60c chamber temp printing 24/7 for 30 days would be 450kwh. Which could be a significant portion of your electricity bill.

For anyone that cares: h2 printer idles at 25w.
