Applicability
Applicable to new commercial consumers who have installed transformer capacity in excess of 249kVA.
For determination of the applicable kVA capacity, the Corporation shall consider i) circumstances where the kVA capacity installed by the Corporation exceeds the consumers load requirements by more than standard design, and ii) circumstances where installed capacity is shared by more than one consumer in which case the Corporation shall equitably allocate the kVA capacity between consumers.
Type of Service
Single-phase or multi-phase service, 60 hertz at 120/208 or 277/480 volts.
If the Corporation provides service at the standard primary voltage level (12,470 volts), the consumer shall be responsible for all costs associated with the installation of the primary voltage physical disconnect necessary to isolate the consumer’s facilities from the Corporation’s facilities. The consumer will be responsible to own, operate and maintain all electrical distribution facilities on the customer side of the primary point-of-delivery (typically established at the primary meter).
