The types of service and nominal voltages furnished are listed
below. Unless excluded below, a customer may be provided
additional service(s) if the upper demand limitation would be
I exceeded at his existing services due to the load addition. For
exa_mple, a customer with an existing 120/208 volt three-phaseservice with a 500 Kva demand would not be allowed a second
service unless the load being added would result in a totaldemand of over 750 Kva if served at the existing servicelocation. All electrical code restrictions must be met
regarding additional services.
Three phase service is available to customers with an existing
single-phase only service (l.a. or l.b. below) regardless of
demand on the existing service.
a. Single Phase, 120/240 volt, Three WireThis servlce is availab--i-e to customers whose demand will not
exceed 800 amp (200 Kva). This service is not available in

Upon request, the company will advise the customer in the selection of the rate which will give him the lowest cost of service, based on the information provided to the company, but the responsibility for the selection of the rate lies with the customer.
After the customer has selected the rate under which he elects to take service, the customer will not be permitted to change from that rate to another rate until at least twelve months have elapsed. Neither will the customer be permitted to evade this rule by temporarily terminating service.
However, the company may, at its option, waive the provisions of this paragraph where it appears that an earlier change is requested for permanent rather than for temporary or seasonal advantage. The intent of this rule is to prohibit frequent shifts from rate to rate.

a. General
This portion of the rules provides for the extension and/or
replacement of underground electric distribution facilities.The Upper Peninsula of Michigan was excluded from the
mandatory underground rules adopted by the Michigan PublicService Commission in Case No. U-3001. The general policy
of the company is that real estate developers, property
owners, or other applicants for underground service shallmake a contribution in aid of construction to the company in
an amount equal to the estimated difference in cost between
underground and equivalent overhead facilities.
Methods for determining this cost differential for specific
classifications of service are provided herein. In cases
where the nature of service or the construction conditions
are such that these provisions are not applicable, the
general policy stated above shall apply.
The company, at the request of the developer, will installan underground electric distribution system for all newresidential subdivisions, mobile home parks, multiple
occupancy building complexes, and commercial subdivisions,in cooperation with the developer or owner, evidenced by a
signed agreement and in compliance with the followingspecific conditions:
The developer or owners must provide for recorded easements
or rights-of-way acceptable to the company. The easementsare to be coordinated with other utilities and will include
easements for street lighting cable.

The developer or owner must provide for upgrading the
easement to finished grade or for clearing the easement of
trees, large stumps, and obstructions sufficiently to allowtrenching equipment to operate. Survey stakes indicating
easements, lot lines, and grade must be in place. The
developer or owner must certify to the company that the
easements are graded to within four (4) inches of final
grade before the underground distribution facilities areinstalled.
The developer or owner requesting underground constructionmust make a nonrefundable contribution to the company for
primary switching cabinets. When a switching cabinet is
required exclusively for one customer, that customer willcontribute the actual installed cost of the switchingcabinet. When more than one customer is served from the
switc_ing cabinet, each customer's contribution will be the
prorated total installed cost of the switching cabinet basedon the number of positions required for each customer.
If trenching is required where practical difficulties exist,such as in rock or in sodden ground or when boring under
streets, driveways, patios, or any other paved areas, the
per foot charges stated in this rule shall not apply, andthe contribution in aid of construction shall be an amount
equal to the total cost differential between overhead andunderground construction costs, but not less than the amountcalculated on the per foot basis.

SECTION IV. EMERGENCY ELECTRICAL PROCEDURES
1. GENERAL
Emergency electrical procedures may be necessary if there is a
shortage in the electrical energy supply to meet the demands of
customers in the electrical service area. It is recognized that
such deficiencies can be short term (a few hours) or long term
(more than a few hours) in duration, and, in view of the
difference in nature between short and long term deficiencies,
different and appropriate procedures shall be adopted for each.
Essential health and safety customers given specialconsideration in these procedures shall, insofar as the
situation permits, include the following types of customers andsuch other customers or types of customers which the Commission
may subsequently identify:
a. Governmental Detention Institutions - Which will be limited
to those facilities used for the detention of persons.
b. Fire Stations - Which will be limited to attended, publicly
owned facilities housing mobile fire fighting apparatus.
c. Hospitals - Which will be limited to institutions providingmedical care to patients and where surgical procedures are
per form ed.
d. Life Support Equipment - Such as a kidney machine orrespirator, used to sustain the life of a person.
e° Water Pumping Plants - Which will be limited to publiclyfacilities essential to the supply of potable water to
a co_auni ty.
f. Sewage Plants - Which will be limited to publicly ownedfacilities essential to the collection, treatment, or
disposal of a community's sewage.

related to these procedures.
Although these types of customers will be given special
consideration from the manual load shedding provisions of this
procedure, they are encouraged to install emergency generation
equipment if continuity of service is essential. It is knownthat some of the township Fire Departments in the more rural
parts of Michigan have portable generation equipment available.Maximum use should be made of these facilities. In the case of
customers supplied from two utility sources, only one sourcewill be given special consideration. Other customers who, in
their opinion, have critical equipment or circumstances, should
install emergency battery or portable generating equipment.
The commission will be promptly advised of the nature, time, and
duration of all implemented emergency conditions and procedures
which are performed to reduce load manually or automatically
affect normal service to customers. The commission may order
the implementation of additional procedures or the termination
of the procedures previously employed when circumstances so
require.
