The study of jets charge is necessary to refine the theory of fragmentation in quantum chromodynamics. Also, it can provide an opportunity for improving identification methods in high-energy particle collisions. At the same time, there is a lack of data on jets from heavy flavors. The paper analyzes the weighted charge of the jets from $b$-quarks depending on the method for determining the jet and the method for calculating the electric jets charge by software simulation using the Monte Carlo generator PYTHIA 8.2. Correlations have been established between the type of $B$-meson, type $b$ or $\bar{b}$ quark, and the electric charge of the jet at certain parameters of jet separation and calculation of its charge.
