ABSTRACT

Since all LDCs are regulated in one way or another, rate schedules and pricing data, as it relates to customers, must be available to any interested party. A complete rate schedule covers all rates, terms, and conditions that are approved in rate cases, The classes of customers addressed are residential, commercial, and industrial. To fully understand this rate schedule, you need to obtain a total of fifteen separate rate schedules-this rate schedule plus fourteen other referenced rate schedules. If an experimental rate proves successful, the typical next step is to include it as an optional rate in the base rate schedule and mandatory for any customer class. Once the process of getting the information outlined in this chapter begins, it becomes apparent that only entities need to be contacted-the LDC and the state regulatory agency. A complete rate schedule covers all rates, terms, and conditions that are approved in rate cases, The classes of customers addressed are residential, commercial, industrial.
