Schedule 31
PRIMARY POWER SERVICE
AVAILABILITY:Service is available at unregulated primary voltages of 7.2 KV and above at one point of delivery for industrial and large commercial use where the connected load is in excess of 1,000 kilowatts and less than 10,000 kilowatts, and the user owns his primary distribution facilities, including transformers, and assumes other responsibilities under Rate Schedule 31 as resolved in Resolution No. 1366, and provided further that, in the judgment of the Manager, the District has adequate transmission, distribution and power supply resources to serve the proposed customer. This schedule is available only under the terms of a written contract for a period of not less than five years.
CHARACTER OF SERVICE:
Service delivered under this schedule shall be three phase, 60 cycle, alternating current at the primary voltage to be specified by the District.
RATE:
Energy Charge:
- $0.0263 per kilowatt hour, plus
- $4.20 per kilowatt per month of on-peak billing demand
- $2.47 per kilowatt per month for each kilowatt the off-peak billing demand exceeds the on-peak billing demand
The minimum charge shall be $450.00 per month.
DETERMINATION OF DEMAND:
The demand shall be determined by the installation of a demand meter. The demand for the month shall be the average kilowatt delivery of the thirty-minute interval in which the utilization of electrical energy is greater than in any other thirty-minute interval in that month. Where the load is subject to excessive fluctuation, the demand measuring interval may be five minutes at the option of the District. The demand is to be expressed in kilowatts to the nearest kilowatt. The on-peak period includes those hours from 6:00 a.m. through 10:00 p.m. on any day Monday through Saturday inclusive. The off-peak period includes all other hours.
POWER FACTOR:
The District shall not be obligated under the terms of this schedule to deliver energy to the customer at any time the power factor is below 80% lagging. When the power factor of the customer’s load shall fall below 95% lagging, as indicated by a test meter installed to measure power factor, the billing demand shall be determined by multiplying the measured demand by 95% and dividing this amount by the actual power factor, expressed in percent, as determined by test or measurement.
TAX ADDITIONS:
The above rate is subject to proportional increases to compensate for any gross revenue, kilowatt hour, or other form of tax hereafter imposed by any municipal, state or federal taxing body, in accordance with provisions of Schedule X-2.
