Dwelling Application is used when the homeowner does
the wiring and the State inspector certifies the wiring.
202. SERVICE REQUIRING EXTENSION OF LINES
Line extensions shall be in accordance with the provisions
of the MPUC’s Chapter 395 “Construction Standards and
Ownership and Cost Allocation Rules for Electric Distribution
Line Extensions,” and, the Company’s filed tariff or Term &
Condition (T&C) on “Extensions." See paragraph 219 of this
handbook for more details on customer constructed/owned
lines.
203. INSTALLATION OF SERVICE-SUPPLY
LINES
The Company is not required to install service-supply lines
prior to the time that the wiring of the premises is actually in
progress and the structure sufficiently completed to provide a safe
and suitable terminus for the service-supply lines.
204. TEMPORARY SERVICE
Customers taking service on a temporary basis are required
to pay an amount equivalent to the cost of installing and removing
the Company's service facilities, including the nonsalvable costs
of material used. Temporary service, provided typically for
building construction purposes, is intended to be used for a limited
time period at a location where the facilities devoted especially to
the service are not expected to have further usefulness at that
location after the temporary period. There shall be no other
attachments to the temporary structure; and, if it becomes unsafe,
service may be disconnected (See paragraph 209). In special
cases advance payment is required. See
Illustration No. 7 in
Section XII for overhead temporary service structure
requirements. See Par. 918 and Illustration No.s 9 and 11 for
underground temporary or permanent service structure
requirements.
