(f) Determination of Billing Demand. The billings will be of the highest fifteen (15) minutes integrated or equivalent thermal kW capacity determined to the nearest kW by means of a suitable metering equipment. However, the Billing Capacity shall not be less than the Minimum Billing Capacity as stated in the Village of Elmore’s Rule’s and Regulations.
Utility reserves the right at any time to install Capacity Metering Equipment. Utility will normally install Capacity Metering Equipment when Consumer’s usage in any month exceeds 6,000 kWh.
Where Capacity Metering Equipment is installed and the power factor at time of Maximum measured Capacity is less than ninety percent (90%), Utility reserves the right to determine the Billing Capacity based on the measured kVa Capacity instead of kW Capacity.
Where Capacity Metering Equipment is not installed, the Billing Capacity may be estimated by Utility based on periodic tests or other reasonable basis as determined by Utility.
For highly fluctuating loads, such as welders, hoists, and the like, the measured kW Capacity shall be increased by an amount that is equal to eighty percent (80%) of any separately installed or allocated kVa of transformer capacity required to supply such fluctuating loads.

To partially compensate Utility for the additional expenses involved, any disconnection or reconnection of the service shall also be applicable.
