GENERAL RULES AND REGULATIONS (Continued)
(3) For service furnished at a trailer site for domestic purposes, in
the name of park operator - -such service is to be furnished under the resi-
dential rate schedule, it being understood that in order to make this con-
venient method of obtaining service available to a trailer tenant, park
operator will sign for electric service and pay all monthly bills rendered
therefor including minimum charges. Park operator shall keep such bills
available for tenant's information and shall collect the exact amount
thereof from tenant, except that in the event a tenant either moves in or
out during a billing month, park operator shall determine directly from
billing chart provided by Company the amount due and collect same from
tenant.
When first arranging for electric service for any tenant, the park operator
shall inform tenant that he may obtain service at any time directly from Com-
pany as provided under (2) above.
Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Company from requiring a customer
taking such temporary or trailer service to guarantee an adequate minimum charge
and /or finance such portion of the cost of service as the Company may deem neces-
sary to justify serving such customer.
15• STANDBY, SUPPLEMENTARY, EMERGENCY AND INCIDENTAL SERVICES. Unless otherwise
specifically provided, Company's rate schedules contemplate that customer will take
his entire electrical requirements from the Company. Company's service is not
available for standby, supplementary, emergency or incidental service with respect
to any other source of power except when contracted for under a rate schedule provi
ing for these services defined as follows:
a. STANDBY SERVICE shall be defined as service continuously available
through a permanent connection to provide power and energy for use by
customer in case of failure of another mechanical or electrical source
of power.
b. SUPPLEMENTARY SERVICE shall be defined as service continuously avail-
able through a permanent connection to supplement or augment directly or
indirectly another mechanical or electrical source of power.
c. EMERGENCY SERVICE shall be defined as service supplied through a
temporary connection for customer's use when his usual source of supply
has failed.
d. INCIDENTAL SERVICE shall be defined as service continuously available
through a permanent connection to provide power and energy for use by
customer where such use is merely incidental to customer's operations and
essentially for his convenience, e.g., (without limiting the generality of
the foregoing), for voltage or frequency control, for partial lighting of
selected or limited areas, or for operation of controls, battery chargers,
starting devices, electric clocks, or other equipment requiring relatively
small quantities of energy as compared with customer's total energy usage.
