§ 52.24 MINIMUM CHARGE.
   (A)   Payment of the minimum charge shall entitle the customer in all cases to the use of the number of kWh corresponding to the minimum charge.
   (B)   (1)   In the event 2 or more dwelling units such as trailers, apartments or housekeeping rooms are users of electricity, and the quantity is measured by a single meter, then in that case, for billing purposes, the minimum charge of the electric rates and charges shall be multiplied by the number of dwelling units.
      (2)   A dwelling unit shall be interpreted as a room or rooms or other living space or spaces in which cooking facilities are provided.
   (C)   The rates and charges may be billed to the tenant or tenants occupying property served, if requested in writing by the owner. This billing shall in no wise, however, relieve the owner from liability in the event payment is not made as herein required. The owners of property served, which are occupied by tenants, shall have the right to examine the collection records of the town for the purpose of determining whether the rates and charges have been paid by the tenants; provided, that the examination shall be made at the office in which the records are kept, and during the hours that the office is opened for business.
