All billings are subject to the provisions relating to the power supply cost adjustment, determination of billing capacity, monthly minimum charge and other adjustments that follow.
(C) Power supply cost adjustment. The rates and charges set forth in this schedule are subject to increase or decrease in conformance to the adjustment specified in Utility's Rider "A".
(D) Determination of billing capacity.
(1) The billing capacity shall be the highest measured 15 minute integrated or equivalent thermal kW capacity determined to the nearest kW by means of suitable metering equipment. However, the billing capacity shall be not less than the minimum billing capacity specified in consumer's contract with Utility.
(2) Where capacity metering equipment is installed and the power factor at time of maximum measured capacity is less than 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.
(3) 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 80% of any separately installed or allocated kVa of transformer capacity required to supply such fluctuating loads.
(E) Monthly minimum charge per service. The monthly minimum charge shall be the sum of the foregoing charges, but not less than the applicable service charge.
(F) Terms of payment. If a bill payment is not received by the Utility or by the Utility's authorized agent on or before the specified payment date (the tenth of the month), a one-time, additional amount of 10% of the amount of the bill will become due and payable as part of the customer's total obligation.
