PENALTY FOR CUSTOMER’S FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH REQUESTED CURTAILMENT OR INTERRUPTIONS (continued)

Energy use in excess of that permitted under "Curtailment or Interruptions" shall be subject to a 20.17 cents per kilowatt hour penalty, in addition to normal billing charges, for all electric energy taken in excess of contract curtailment limitations.

Excess Demand is defined as that demand (KW) which was contracted for curtailment and was not curtailed upon request.

Excess Energy consumption (KWH) is computed by multiplying excess demand (KW) by the number of hours requested for curtailment.

Current total integrated demand is defined as that amount of electrical energy supplied in the half-hour period preceding the request for curtailment, but not to exceed the amount of capacity specified in the contract for firm electric service.

DETERMINATION OF DEMAND

The Customer’s demand of electric energy supplied shall be determined for each half-hour interval of the month and said demand in kilowatts for each half-hour interval shall be two (2) times the number of kilowatt hours recorded during each such half-hour interval. The phrase "half-hour interval" shall mean the thirty (30) minute period beginning or ending on a numbered clock hour as indicated by the clock controlling the metering equipment.

DETERMINATION OF LAGGING REACTIVE KILOVOLT AMPERES

The Customer’s requirements in Lagging Reactive Kilovolt Amperes shall be determined for each half-hour interval of the month and shall be two (2) times the number of Lagging Reactive Kilovolt Ampere Hours recorded during such half-hour interval. No effect whatsoever shall be given hereunder to Customer’s leading Reactive Kilovolt Amperes, if any.

ADJUSTMENT FOR CUSTOMER’S PEAK PERIOD LAGGING REACTIVE KILOVOLT AMPERES

The number of Reactive Kilovolt Amperes shall be computed each month for a Power Factor of 85% lagging using as the basis of said computation the Customer’s maximum kilowatt demand for the month during the Peak Period hours thereof.

If the Customer’s Maximum Peak Period Requirement in Lagging Reactive Kilovolt Amperes for the month is greater than the number of Reactive Kilovolt Amperes at a Power Factor of 85% lagging, determined as above, an amount equal to the product of $0.27 times said difference shall be added to the Customer’s bill.
