It is understood and agreed that the city is merely a furnisher of electricity, deliverable at the point where it passes from the city’s wires to the service wires of the customer, or through the divisional switch separating the customer’s wires and equipment from the city’s wires and equipment, where a switch is installed and the city shall not be responsible for any damage or injury to the buildings, motors, apparatus or other property of the customer due to lightning, defects in wiring or other electrical installations, defective equipment or other cause not due to the negligence of the city. The city shall not be, in any way, responsible for the transmission, use or control of the electricity beyond the delivery point, and shall not be liable for any damage or injury to any person or property whatsoever, or death of any person or persons arising, accruing or resulting in any manner, from the receiving or use of the electricity.
