50% of the greatest demand in kva billed during the preceding eleven months
nor in any event less than 100 kva.
Maximum Demand The maximum demand in kilowatts shall be the greatest 15-minute
load during the month for which bill is rendered.
Average Power Factor The average power factor is defined to be the quotient
obtained by dividing the kilowatt-hours used during the month by the square
root of the sum of the squares of the kilowatt-hours used and the lagging
reactive kilovolt-ampere-hours supplied during the same period. Any leading
kilovolt-ampere-hours supplied during the period will not be considered in
determining the average power factor.
Minimum Demand to be Billed The monthly minimum billing demand shall not be
less than provided above, whether or not energy is used.
Standby and Supplementary Service
Availability Available at 12,400 volts or higher to any large co�ercial or
industrial customer who normally supplies part or all of his electric power
requirements from another independent source of power for which the Company's
service may be substituted wholly or in part. Customer shall contract for
capacity adequate to supply the entire electric requirements for which such
service may be used which capacity shall equal or exceed the agreed kva demand
for standby to customer's other source of power. Company shal.l not be obligated
to supply capacity in excess of that contracted for.
Rate The billing shall be in accordance with Company's Large General Service
rate schedule for Service at Primary Distribution Volta�e except that the
paragraph "Determination of Demand" shall be modified to read as follows:
"The demand in kilovolt-amperes for billing purposes shall be determined by
dividing the maximum demand in kilowatts by the monthly average power factor,
but in no month shall the demand to be billed be considered as less than the
agreed standby demand plus 50% of the greatest excess demand in kva over such
standby demand billed during the preceding eleven months nor in any event
less than 2 500 kva."

Parallel Oueration Interconnection and parallel operation of Customer's inde-
pendent source of power (Customer's system) and Company's service (Company's
system) will be permitted by Company under the following conditions:
1. The interconnection between the systems must be at 12,400 volts or
higher at a point on Company's system where Customer's operations will
not interfere with the quality of Company's service to any of its other
customers.
2. Customer agrees to provide the necessary equipment as approved by
Company to enable Customer to operate its generating equipment in parallel
with Company's system. Since the power factor and the voltage at which
Company's system and Customer's system are operated will vary, each party
agrees to operate its system at such power factor and voltage as is condu-
cive to best operating standards and in such manner as to absorb its share
of the reactive power.
3. Company reserves the right to disconnect service in the event service
to Customer results in trouble on Company's system such as interruptions,
grounds, radio or telephone interference, surges or objectionable voltage
fluctuations, where such trouble is caused by negligence of Customer if,
after giving notice in writing to Customer of such trouble, Customer fails
to remedy the causes thereof within a reasonable time.
4. Company's meters will be ratcheted to measure the flow of power and
energy from Company to Customer only. Reverse flow if any will be ignored
unless the amount is substantial in which event it will be a matter for
negotiation and further agreement between the parties.

Rules for Application of Multiple Dwellin� Service Rate
1. Service for two or more apartments may be taken through one meter under
a single billing provided that the billing shall be computed as though each
apartment or dwelling unit used an equal portion of the total service �tered
and were independently billed, except that the minimum charge shall be the
minimum charge for a single apartment or dwelling unit. An apartment is defined
to be a room or suite of rooms used for the general funetions of a household and
permanently equipped with a sink and cooking facilities, occupying space
specifically designed for them, such as a kitchen, kitchenette or pullman
kitchen:
2. The general service required by the apartment building, such as service
for hall lighting, garages for private use, laundry rooms, drying rooms,
boiler rooms, janitor's supply rooms, refrigeration equipment, oil burners,
furnace stokers, and air conditioning equipment, may be taken on the multiple
dwelling schedule provided the kilowatt-hours in the second and third blocks
of the rate schedule be increased by 150 and 500 kilowatt-hours, respectively,
for each apartment not served on this same meter.
3. Three phase service, service to motors larger than 5 horsepawer, and service
to snaw melting installations totaling more than 25 kilowatts may be had under
such rates as are available to co�ercial customers for the respective classes
of service.
4. A customer occupying a building or apartment for residential and coa�ercial
purposes jointly may combine his residential and commercial use on such rates
as are available to commercial customers for the respective classes of service.

Power Factor The customer shall at all times take and use power in such manner
that the average power factor shall be as near 100% as possible, but when the
average power factor is less than 80%, then the demand as determined above
shall be adjusted by multiplying it by 80% and dividing the product thus
obtained by the average pawer factor expressed in percent.
The average power factor is defined to be the quotient obtained by
• dividing the kilowatt-hours used during the month by the square root of the
sum of the squares of the kilowatt-hours used and the lagging reactive
kilovolt-ampere-hours supplied during the same period. Any leading kilovolt-
ampere-hours supplied during the period will not be considered in determining
the average power factor.
Where customer's demand is less than 40 kw the average pawer factor may
at the Compny's option be determined by periodic test or measurement.
Standby, Supplementary, Emergency and Incidential Service
(Alternating Current Only)
Availability Available for service to customers who normally supply their
requirements either directly or indirectly from another independent source
of power for which the Company's service may be substituted wholly or in

electrical requirements for which such service may be used and Company
shall not be obligated to supply capacity in excess of the amount con-
tracted for by customer.
Rate The billing shall be in accordance with the Large Commercial Service
rate schedule, except that the paragraph "Determination of Demand" shall
be modified to read as follows: "The demand in kilowatts shall be the
greatest 15-minute load during the month for -which bill is rendered, but
in no month shall the demand to be billed be based on less than the greatest
demand previously supplied nor on less than the demand contracted for. In
addition, for new customers taking service subsequent to January 1, 1965, the
demand to be billed shall in no event be considered as less than 100 kw."

Power Factor If the average monthly pawer factor of any plant or station is
less than 95% lagging, the kilowatt-hours of that particular station will
be determined by multiplying the kilowatt-hours actually supplied by 95% and
dividing the product thus obtained by the average power factor expressed in
percent. The average power factor is defined to be the quotient obtained
by dividing the kilowatt-hours used during the month by the square root of
the sum of the squares of the kilowatt-hours used and the lagging reactive
kilovolt-ampere-hours supplied during the same period. Any leading kilovolt-
ampere hours supplied will not be considered in determining the average power
factor.
The average power factor may at the Company's option be determined by test
or measurement.

Power Factor If the average monthly power factor of any plant or station is
less than 95% lagging, the kilowatt-hours of that particular station will
be determined by multiplying the kilowatt-hours actually supplied by 95'% and
dividing the product thus obtained by the average power factor expressed in
percent. The average power factor is defined to be the quoti.ent obtained
by dividing the kilawatt-hours used during the month by the square root of
the sum of the squares of the kilowatt-hours used and the lagging reactive
kilovolt-ampere-hours supplied during the same period. Any leading kilovolt-
ampere hours supplied will not be considered in determining the average power
factor.
The average power factor may at the Company's optfon be determined by test
or measurement.
