Current through Vol. 42, No. 4, November 1, 2024

Section 165:40-3-10 - Continuity and quality of electric connection

(a) The cooperative/utility will use reasonable diligence to receive continuous electric delivery at the point of purchase with the producer within the voltage limits specified by applicable Chapters of this Title.

(b) It shall be the responsibility of the producer to install and maintain protective devices which will protect the producer's equipment or process during abnormal service conditions or the failure of part or all of the electric service.

(c) In order to make repairs to or changes in the cooperative/utility's facilities for supplying electric service or taking electric purchases, the cooperative/utility reserves the right, without incurring any liability therefore, to suspend purchase without notice to a producer for such periods as may be reasonably necessary. Insofar as is practicable, the interruption shall be made at a time which will cause least reasonable inconvenience to producers.

(d) The cooperative/utility also reserves the right to discontinue purchase from any producer, without advance notice, when a defective condition of wiring or equipment upon the premises of the producer results, or is likely to result in danger to life or property or interference with proper service to others. Upon becoming aware of any condition resulting in discontinuance of purchase, the cooperative/utility shall immediately take action to notify the affected producer. Electric purchase from the producer will not be resumed until the dangerous condition has been remedied to the satisfaction of the cooperative/utility.

(e) If such dangerous condition is the result of tampering with cooperative/utility equipment, the provisions in 165:40-3-23 shall also apply.
