Large Power Demand Service
Availability
This Schedule is available for electric service to any nonresidential consumer at a single point of delivery with transformer capacity equal to or greater than 125 KVA. This Schedule is not available for seasonal or standby service or for any contract period less than 12 months. This Schedule shall apply to nonresidential loads such as commercial, industrial, churches and schools.
Type of Service
The Cooperative will provide service at 60 hertz, single-phase 2 or 3 wires, or three-phase 3 or 4 wires, at our standard distribution voltages.
Monthly Rate
Basic Facilities Charge: $100.00
Demand Charge
All kW of Metered Demand: $4.50 per kW
Energy Charge
First 100 kWh per kW Billing Demand: $0.10000 per
kWh
All Remaining kWh: $0.09000 per kWh
Billing Demand
The Billing Demand shall be the maximum kW registered or
computed during any 15-minutes from the Cooperative's metering
facilities within the current monthly billing period.
Power Factor Adjustment
The consumer agrees to maintain unity power factor as nearly as practicable. Demand charges will be adjusted to correct for average power factors lower than 85%. This adjustment shall be made by increasing the measured demand 1% for each 1% by which the average power is less than 85% lagging.
Service Provisions
- The charges computed at the above monthly rate shall be subject to applicable South Carolina Sales Tax, franchise fees, assessments, and surcharges imposed by any governmental authority.
- The minimum Contract Period for service provided under this schedule shall be one (1) year.
- The minimum monthly charge under the above rate shall be the monthly facilities charge for all customers served under this rate schedule except those customers for which a higher minimum monthly bill is required under the Cooperative's standard policy because of special circumstances affecting the Cooperative's cost of rendering service.
- The amount calculated at the above rate is subject to be adjusted monthly by the Cooperative's projected wholesale power cost. The rate shall be adjusted by a TIER (Times Interest Earned Ratio) adjustment factor to cover wholesale power cost changes and a rate necessary to maintain TIER as set forth by the mortgage agreements between the cooperative and its approved lending agencies.
- Intermittent service connections and disconnections are subject to an operating service charge of not less than $25.00.
- Bills are due upon receipt. Bills are delinquent 22 days from the date of the bill and subject to a late payment charge equal to an additional two percent (2%). Those unpaid after 30 days are subject to service disconnection.
- The Cooperative's facilities used to provide electrical service have definite capacity limitations and can be damaged by overloads. Therefore, the Consumer must notify the Cooperative prior to making alterations to the service entrance equipment so that facilities of proper capacity may be provided. The Consumer shall be responsible for all expenses and or damages to Consumer's facilities resulting from failure to give proper notice. The Consumer may also be subject to a contribution-in-aid of construction for work required to meet the Consumer's alterations. The Consumer should contact the Cooperative for information concerning charges for such work.
- Temporary service or construction service shall be supplied at a single point of delivery and in accordance with the Cooperative's Line Extension Plan.
- Service under this schedule is subject to the provisions of the Cooperative's Service Rules and Regulations.
