| Character of Service: |
| Alternating current, 60 cycles, single-phase, at normal voltage of 120 volts or 120 /240 volts. |
| Net Monthly Bill: |

- For bills mailed June through October:
- Consumer Charge: $11.90 per month
- Energy Charge: $0.08493 per kWh
- For bills mailed November through May:
- Consumer Charge: $11.90 per month
- Energy Charge:
- First 600 kWh $0.08493 per kWh
- Over 600 kWh $0.05543 per kWh
- Minimum: $11.90 per month

| Billing Adjustments: |
|
| Other Terms and Conditions: |
- In a complex of multiple unit single-family residences having separate kitchen facilities, each unit will be individually metered and the above rate applied.
- Individual motor units shall not exceed 7.5 horsepower, unless otherwise agreed upon prior to installation.
- At the Cooperative's option, three-phase service may be provided under this schedule.
|
| Small Commercial Rate |
| Applicable: |
| To any member using electric service at one point of delivery with a demand not to exceed 75 kilowatts. This schedule is not applicable to breakdown, standby, supplementary or resale service. |
| Character of Service: |
| Alternating current, 60 cycles, at the voltage and phase of the Cooperative's established distribution system most available to the location of the member. |
| Net Monthly Bill: |
Rate:
- For bills mailed June through October:
- Consumer Charge: $21.70 per month
- Energy Charge: $0.10053 per kWh
- For bills mailed November through May:
- Consumer Charge: $21.70 per month
- Energy Charge:
- First 600 kWh $0.08753 per kWh
- Over 600 kWh $0.05653 per kWh
- Minimum: The minimum monthly charge under the above rate shall be $21.70, where 10 kVA or less of transformer capacity is required, unless a higher monthly charge is specified in the basic "Line Extension or Additional Equipment Needed Contract", in which case said higher monthly charge shall be applicable. For members requiring more than 10 kVA of transformer capacity, the minimum monthly charge shall be increased at the rate of $1.00 for each additional kVA or fraction thereof required. Where the minimum charge is increased in accordance with the terms of this section, the additional charge will be applied against energy purchased in the same billing period.

| Terms of Payment: |
|
| Billing Adjustments: |
|
| Other Terms and Conditions: |
- Individual motors having a rated capacity in excess of 7.5 horsepower must be three-phase unless otherwise agreed upon prior to installation.
- Both power and lighting shall be billed at the foregoing rate. If a separate meter is required for the lighting circuit, the registrations of the two meters shall not be added to obtain total kilowatt-hours used. Each meter installation shall be treated as a separate account and billed accordingly.
- All wiring, poles, lines, and other electrical equipment beyond the delivery point shall be considered to be the distribution system of the member and shall be furnished and maintained by the member. All wiring must be installed in accordance with the rules of the National Electrical Code, and if more than one motor using automatic starting equipment is connected to its service, the Cooperative may, at its option, require the installation of sequence starters to prevent the simultaneous starting of motors.
- If service is furnished at primary distribution voltage, a discount will be allowed amounting to five percent (5%) of the net monthly bill computed before the cost of the purchased power adjustment.
The Cooperative may choose to meter on the load side of the member's transformers, and the five percent (5%) discount shall be allowed, but the kWh billed shall be increased by the amount of the transformer losses calculated as one percent (1%) of the total kVA rating of the member's transformers multiplied by 730 hours.
|
| Large Power Rate |
| Applicable: |
| To members located on or near Cooperative's distribution lines for all types of usage, subject to the established Terms and Conditions of the Cooperative. This schedule is not applicable to breakdown, standby, supplementary or resale service. |
| Character of Service: |
| Alternating current, 60 cycles, at the voltage and phase of the Cooperative's established distribution system most available to the location of the member. |
| Net Monthly Bill: |
Rate:
- Consumer Charge:
- Primary Service: $172.00 per month
- Secondary Service: $90.00 per month
- Demand Charge:
- June - October bills: $10.52 per kW
- November - May bills: $ 4.40 per kW
- Energy Charge:
- First 1,000,000 kWh $0.04243 per kWh
- Over 1,000,000 kWh $0.03943 per kWh
|
| Determination of Billing Demand: |
| The billing demand shall be the highest average kilowatt demand established by the member for any period of fifteen (15) consecutive minutes during the month for which the bill is rendered, as indicated or recorded by a demand meter, and in no case less than 10 kW; and adjusted for power factor as follows: |
| Power Factor Adjustment: |
| The member agrees to maintain the highest practical power factor by installation of appropriate capacitors or other means. Demand charges may be adjusted for members to correct for average power factors lower than ninety percent (90%) if and when the Cooperative determines that failure to do so will be detrimental to the system or increase system costs. When deemed necessary using the criteria set forth above, such adjustments will be made by increasing the measured demand by one percent (1%) for each one percent (1%) by which the average power factor is less than ninety percent (90%) lagging. |
| Minimum Monthly Charge: |
The minimum monthly charge shall be the highest one of the following charges, as determined for the member in question:
- The minimum monthly charge specified in the service contract.
- A charge of $1.00 per kVA of installed transformer capacity.
- The consumer charge plus the minimum demand charge.
|
| Terms of Payment: |
|
| Billing Adjustments: |
|
| Other Terms and Conditions: |
- Motors having a rated capacity in excess of 7.5 horsepower must be three-phase.
- Both power and lighting 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 not be added to obtain total kilowatt-hours used and the registrations of the two demand meters shall not be added to obtain the total kilowatt demand for billing purposes. Each meter installation shall be treated as a separate account and billed accordingly.
- All wiring, poles, lines, and other electrical equipment beyond the delivery point shall be considered the distribution system of the member and be furnished and maintained by the member. All wiring must be installed in accordance with the rules of the National Electrical Code, and if more than one motor using automatic starting equipment is connected to its service, the Cooperative may, at its option, require the installation of sequence starters to prevent simultaneous starting of motors.
- If service is furnished at primary distribution voltage, a discount will be allowed amounting to five percent (5%) of the monthly demand and energy charges computed before the cost of the purchased power adjustment.
The Cooperative may choose to meter on the load side of the member's transformers, and the five percent (5%) discount shall be allowed, but the kWh billed shall be increased by the amount of the transformer losses, calculated as one percent (1%) of the total kVA rating of the member's transformers times 730 hours.
