The provisions of this chapter may be modified or waived by the public service commission. They may be so modified or waived in particular cases wherever shown to be impracticable for special reasons or where the advantage of uniformity with existing construction is greater than the advantage of construction in compliance with the rules providing the existing construction is reasonably safe or if equivalent or safer construction is secured in other ways.(3) TEMPORARY INSTALLATIONS. It may sometimes be necessary to modify or waive certain of the provisions in this chapter in case of temporary installations or installations which are shortly to be dismantled or reconstructed. Such temporary construction may be used for a reasonable length of time provided it is under competent supervision while it or adjoining equipment is under pressure or if it is protected by suitable barriers or warning signs when accessible to any person, without fully complying with this chapter; but all such construction shall be made reasonably safe.(4) EMERGENCY. In case of emergency or pending decision of the public service commission, the person responsible for the installation may decide as to modification or waiver of any rule or order, subject to review by the public service commission.Wis.
