(a) Temporary service.
(1) Temporary service is defined as service supplied for less than 12 consecutive months at one point of delivery and measured through one meter. Service will be furnished only when and where the Company has available sufficient capacity in lines, transformer and generating equipment and at the voltage and phase of the Company’s distribution system most available.
(2) Temporary service customers will be required to pay all costs of installation and removal of Company facilities, including overheads, with credit being allowed for material salvage value. Payment of such cost and of the estimated bill for service may be required in advance.
(3) The rate shall be the rate and charges of the applicable schedule plus a 10% temporary service charge based on the net bill before fuel cost adjustment or tax surcharge.
(4) The temporary service provision as set forth herein is available in connection with any otherwise applicable rate schedule. The customer may at any time terminate service under the temporary provision and contract to receive future service under any applicable rate schedule.
(b) Governmental bodies and agencies. When a governmental body or agency is prohibited by law from entering into an agreement for the term specified by an otherwise applicable rate schedule, the Company will accept an agreement with such governmental body or agency under such rate schedule for less than the term specified therein, but in no case less than one year, provided that such agreement shall continue in force thereafter for successive periods of like term until written notice of cancellation has been given by either party to the other 12 months prior to any expiration date and such time has expired, and further provided, in the Company’s opinion, the use of service under such agreement can be expected to continue for not less than the minimum term specified by the applicable rate schedule.
