This service is available at secondary voltage for general non-residential use delivered through a single point in the electric utility service area adjacent to existing electric distribution facilities that are adequate and suitable for supplying the required service. Service under this schedule is provided on a yearly basis. The schedule is not applicable as a standby service.
(Ord. 2010-11, passed 9-22-2010; Ord. 2019-25, passed on 5-13-2020)
The type of service rendered under this subchapter shall be alternating current, 60 hertz, single- or multi-phase, at a standard secondary voltage (e.g., 120/240, 12/208, 277/480 volts), or at another secondary voltage as mutually agreed upon in writing.

The minimum monthly charge shall be the greatest of:
(A) The contract amount, if any;
(B) Fifty cents per connected transformer capacity (kVA) or proportional share of transformer capacity when serving multi-services from a single transformer bank; or
(C) The customer charge.
(Ord. 2010-11, passed 9-22-2010; Ord. 2019-25, passed on 5-13-2020)
(A) The electric utility will update its energy cost adjustment (ECA) tracking factor each calendar quarter based on changes in the costs of purchased power, energy conservation/efficiency programs, payments in lieu of taxes, and other costs specifically approved by the Common Council. The electric utility will prepare separate tracking factors for each rate schedule and, as appropriate, for both the demand and energy charges.
(B) The imbedded base costs for the calculation of future ECA tracking factors are as follows:
Purchased power - demand (blended rate): | $23.487/kW-month |
Purchased power - energy: | $0.044018/kWh |
(Combined demand and energy imbedded in base rates) | $0.093400/kWh |
Energy conservation/efficiency: | $0.000000/kWh |
PILOT: | $0.000000/kWh |
Other: | $0.000000 /kWh |

(A) Service shall be provided based upon the electric utility’s rules and regulations.
(B) The electric utility shall furnish and maintain, at its expense, the facilities (including poles, conductors, meters, protective equipment, and transformers) for a single delivery point. The electric utility shall place its meters at the delivery point, unless otherwise determined by the electric utility. All facilities beyond the delivery point are the responsibility of the customer.
(C) If the electric utility places its meters at the primary voltage level, the customer’s demand (kW) and energy (kWh) measurements shall be reduced by 2% for the purposes of this schedule.
(D) The electric utility may require corrective measures to be taken by the customer for any motor or other apparatus which, in the opinion of the electric utility, will cause, or is causing, unacceptable voltage fluctuation to other customers. Unless otherwise determined by the electric utility service area, the maximum primary voltage fluctuation will not exceed 3%.
(E) The customer shall be responsible for any necessary protection of customer’s equipment, including, but not limited to, under-voltage, phase-reversal, and/or loss-of-phase relays.
(F) At the time that both the requested and actual in-service dates have elapsed, the customer shall be responsible for the minimum monthly charge even if the facility is not yet using electrical energy.
(G) The customer will be required to give satisfactory assurance by means of a written agreement as to the amount and duration of the business offered.
(Ord. 2010-11, passed 9-22-2010; Ord. 2019-25, passed on 5-13-2020)
(A) The billing demand for any month shall be the maximum kilowatt demand established by the customer for any period of 15 consecutive minutes during the month for which the bill is rendered. The load shall be as indicated or recorded by suitable recording instruments provided by the electric utility and adjusted for power factor as provided in this schedule.
(B) When highly fluctuating or intermittent loads (such as welding machines, electric furnaces, x-ray equipment, and the like) are in operation by the customer, the electric utility reserves the right to set the minimum billing demand at the name plate or volt-ampere rating of the equipment. When such loads require additional equipment (e.g., separate transformers, capacitors, and the like), a separate facilities charge will be made to the customer.
(Ord. 2010-11, passed 9-22-2010; Ord. 2019-25, passed on 5-13-2020)
(A) The customer agrees to maintain unity power factor as nearly as practical.
(B) The electric utility reserves the right to measure such power factor at any time.
(C) Should such measurements indicate that the power factor is less than 97% (lagging or leading), then the demand for billing purposes will be adjusted for the monthly peak demand period by multiplying the demand as indicated or recorded on the demand meter by 97% and dividing by the measured power factor (expressed in percent).
