Residential Rates
Our customers fall into one of three rate classes: regular residential, total electric and demand service. These three classes have slightly different rates.
Regular residential customer rates apply to a single-family private dwelling with one meter used for lighting, cooking and other household activities. Most of our customers tend to fall in this category.
Total electric customer rates apply to a single-family private dwelling unit supplied through one meter for all domestic use, including lighting, cooking, household electrical appliances, water heating, space heating, and air conditioning, where electric service is the only source of energy for the dwelling unit, except energy provided by wood burning fireplaces used primarily for aesthetic purposes.
Demand service rates apply to any single-family private dwelling unit supplied through one meter with qualifying minimum usage of 1,000 kWh per month on average. This rate will be applicable for service provided during the first complete billing period after the installation of appropriate metering equipment.

The residential rates don’t apply to a residence that is used for commercial, professional or business activities. But if the domestic use can be separately metered from the business activities, then these rates would apply to the domestic part.
We consider a single-family dwelling in which four sleeping rooms or more are rented or are available for rent as non-domestic, and the applicable general service rate shall apply.
