BILLING
DEMAND: The
billing demand under this rate schedule shall
be the highest of the following:
1. The measured demand
for the month adjusted for power factor less
50 kW.
2. Or as specified in a separate contract.
MINIMUM MONTHLY
BILL: May
be the monthly customer charge, or 27¢/kVA
of required transformer capacity, except that
a higher minimum may be specified in accordance
with the District's line extension policy (Policy No. 37 - Line Extension 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% 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%
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 Benton
PUD or as specified in a special power sales
contract. Additionally the District may require
a contribution from the customer for the
special facilities investment.
