  • Over 600 kWh delivered per month @ $0.00116 per kWh

Determination of Billing Demand

The billing demand shall be the maximum kilowatt demand established by the consumer for any
fifteen minute period during the month for which the bill is rendered, as indicated or recorded by a demand meter, except that it shall not be less than the higher of the following:
   1. Forty percent (40%) of the highest recorded demand for the previous eleven (11) months as indicated or recorded by a demand meter.

   2. Forty percent (40%) of 50 kW.

Power Factor Adjustment

The consumer agrees to maintain unity power factor as nearly as practicable. Billing demand will be adjusted for the consumers with 100 kW or more of the measured demand to correct for average power factors lower than 90 percent. Such adjustments will be made by increasing the measured demand 1 percent for each percentage the average power factor is less than 90.

Minimum Monthly Charge

The minimum monthly charge for distribution delivery service will be determined as stated in the contract. The minimum monthly charge billed when a consumer requests disconnection of service before the term of contract expires or in less than twelve months, will be calculated as follows:
38 cents/kW applied to the highest demand of the previous term of connection plus the monthly Consumer Delivery Charge. Such charges shall be included on the consumer’s final bill. If the consumer has the service reconnected before the expiration of the initial term of contract or twelve months, credit will be given according to the number of months remaining in the term of contract or remaining in one year.

The provision for monthly minimum charges following disconnection shall not apply if the service is transferred to another party without an interruption of service.

Conditions of Service

   1. Motors having a rated capacity in excess of ten horsepower (10HP) must be three-phase.

   2. All power and energy delivered, sold or both shall be billed at the foregoing rate. If a separate meter is required for the lighting circuit, the registrations of the two watt-hour meters shall be added to obtain total kilowatt-hours used and the registrations of the two demand meters shall be added to obtain the total kilowatt demand for billing purposes.

   3. All wiring, pole lines, and other electrical equipment beyond the metering point shall be considered the distribution system of the consumer and shall be furnished and maintained by the consumer.

   4. If service is furnished at the primary distribution voltage, a discount of thirty-four cents shall apply to the demand charges; however, the Cooperative shall have the option of metering at secondary voltage and to adjust for transformer losses by use loss compensators.
