G. Determination of Maximum Demand:
1. The maximum demand shall be the sum of the individual demands of each metered service supplied under the provisions of this schedule.
2. The individual demand of each metered service shall be determined either as the measured demand or as estimated demand derived from the connected loads. At the request of a consumer whose measured demand during off-peak hours normally exceeds measured demand during on-peak hours, the city will install metering equipment to determine the measured demand during both on-peak and off-peak hours. The total installed cost of such metering equipment in excess of the cost of the metering equipment that is necessary to determine a consumer's single highest measured demand during the month will be paid for by the consumer.
3. For those consumers whose measured demand is determined during both on-peak and off-peak hours, maximum demand in any month shall be the greater of:
a. The measured demand during on-peak hours of the current month; or
b. The minimum billing demand, if any, specified in the service contract; or
c. Fifty (50) KW.
d. For all other consumers, all hours are considered as on-peak hours.
H. Excess Demand:
1. The excess demand in any month shall be the amount by which the measured demand during off-peak hours of the current month exceeds the maximum demand for the month.
I. Service and Contract Provisions:
1. Each separate point of delivery of service by one or more metered services shall be considered a contract location and shall be metered and billed under a separate service contract.
2. Only one (1) metered service of each type, as to voltage and phase, will be supplied to a consumer under this schedule at one (1) contract location. Where two (2) or more services are supplied to a consumer at one (1) contract location, said services, within the limitations above stated, may be combined in one (1) service contract under this schedule, or may be served under separate contracts under this or other applicable schedules, at the consumer's option.
J. Term of Contract:
1. Unless otherwise provided, the term of contract for service under this schedule shall not be less than one (1) year.
