Schedule 23: Large General Service - Non Time-of-Use
Page 1 | Page 2
AVAILABLE: In all territory served by the District.
APPLICABLE: To commercial, industrial, public buildings, and other services not eligible under other rate schedules, where measured demand equals or exceeds 300 kW at least three months in a calendar year but never exceeds 3500 kW.
CHARACTER OF SERVICE: 60 hertz alternating current of such phase and voltage as the District may have available.
RATE:
Monthly Customer Charge
| Multi-Phase | $18.60 |
Monthly Energy Charge
| April 1 through August 31 | $0.0331 per kWh |
| September 1 through March 31 | $0.0397 per kWh |
Monthly Demand Charge
| First 50 kW of demand per month | no demand charge |
| Excess above 50 kW of demand per month | $5.99 per kilowatt of billing demand per billing period |
BILLING DEMAND: The billing demand under this rate schedule shall be the highest of the following:
- The measured demand for the month adjusted for power factor less 50 kW.
- Or as specified in a separate contract.
MINIMUM MONTHLY BILL: May be the monthly customer charge, or $0.27/kVA of required transformer capacity, except that a higher minimum may be specified in accordance with the District's Line Extension & Facilities Construction Policy.
DELIVERY POINT: The above rates are based upon the supply
of service to the entire premises through a single delivery and metering point.
Separate supply for the same customer at other points of consumption shall
be separately metered and billed.
DETERMINATION OF DEMAND: Demand measurement shall be made by suitable instruments at the point of delivery. Demand for any month shall be defined as the average kilowatt delivery during the thirty-minute period in which the consumption of energy is the greatest during the month for which determination is made.
POWER FACTOR ADJUSTMENTS: If the average power factor at which power is delivered to the customer is less than 95 percent lagging, the billing demand may be increased by one percent for each percent or major fraction thereof that the average power factor is less than 95 percent lagging. The average power factor will be determined by measurement of kilowatt hours and reactive kilovolt-ampere-hours during the billing period using the following formula:
Where pf = Average Power Factor
Where kWh = Kilowatt-Hours
Where kvarh = Reactive-Kilovolt-Ampere Hours
The meter measuring reactive volt-ampere-hours shall be ratcheted to prevent reverse rotation when the power factor of the load is leading.
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS: Service under this classification is subject to the Customer Service Policies of the District or as specified in a special power sales contract. Primary Facility charges will apply. Additionally the District may require a contribution from the customer or a Guaranteed Annual Revenue Contract (GAR) if an electric system improvement such as a new substation is needed as a result of new or additional load.
