(A) The customer shall be responsible at all times for the safekeeping of all town property installed on the customer’s premises, and to that end, the customer shall give no one, except authorized town employees, access to such property.
(B) The customer shall be liable for the cost of repairs or damage to the town property on the customer’s premises resulting from the negligence of, or misuse by, others other than the town’s employees.
(C) Electricity is supplied by the town and purchased by the customer upon the express condition that after it passes the delivery point, it becomes the property of the customer to be used only as provided in this article; and the town shall not be liable for loss, or damage, to any person, or property whatsoever, resulting directly, or indirectly, from the use, misuse, or presence of the electricity after it passes the delivery point; or for any loss, or damage, resulting from the presence, character, or condition of the wires, or equipment, of the customer, or for the inspection or repair thereof.
(D) The customer shall be responsible for the maintenance, and repair, of the customer’s wiring and equipment. Should the customer report trouble with the supply of electricity, the town will endeavor to respond with reasonable dispatch to such call with the purpose only of correcting such trouble as may be in the town’s equipment supplying the customer. If the trouble appears to be in the customer’s wiring or appliances, the town’s employees may, if requested by the customer, make such inspection of the customer’s wiring or equipment, as the town’s employees are prepared to make, but any inspection of the customer’s wiring or equipment by the town’s employees is made upon the express condition that the customer assumes the entire, and sole, risk, liability, and responsibility for all acts, omissions, and negligence of the town’s employees. The town retains responsibility only with respect to the action of its employees in connection with property owned by the town.
