(A) A written application or contract, accepted by the borough will be required from each customer before electric service is supplied. This shall apply whether the supply of service involves a new installation, the unsealing of the service switch where service has been previously supplied, a change in the class of service or a change in the customer’s name. The borough may, at its discretion where unusual circumstances prevail and as a convenience to the customer, institute service pending the formal application.
(B) Standard contracts shall be for terms as specified in the statement of rate, but where large or special investment is necessary for the supply of service, a longer contract period than that specified in the rate, or a special guarantee of revenue, or both, may be required to safeguard such investment.
