THE EFFECT OF THE ELECTRIC UTILITY PROPOSAL
ON RESIDENTIAL CUSTOKERS.
With City Council approval of the proposed rates, a residential
customer who uses 500 killowatt-hours (kwh) of electricity per
month would see a monthly electric bill increase of $4.79 in
summer, from $32.73 to $37.52; and $4.96 in winter, from $34.33 to
$39.29. A residential individual bill may differ from this
example.
COWARISON WITH PGhE LOCAL RESIDENTIAL RATES.
In comparing the proposed Lodi rates to PG&E’s present local base
customer rates at the usage of 500 kwh there would be a monthly
difference of $8.01 in summer, $37.52 to $45.53; and $8.19 in
winter, $39.29 to $47.48. PG&E has a requested increase scheduled
to be implemented on January 1, 1990, which will additionally widen
the d.if f erence .

customer-owned generating plant.
(c) EXCESS CAPACITY: Capacity supplied by the customer-owned generating plant
in excess of the measured load at the customer's service connection point shall be
considered inadvertent and no demand or energy adjustment shall be given.
(d) LIMITATION ON CONTRACT CAPACITY SERVED: Standby Service to new or

jeopardizing service to existing customers on rate schedules for firm service,
including standby service.
(e) RENDERING OF BILLS: All bills, including opening and closing bills, will
be based on meter registration, except as otherwise provided in the City's Rules and

(i) METERING: The City will furnish, own and maintain, at its expense, the
normal metering for the size and type of load served. The City will furnish, own
and maintain, at the customer's expense, other metering equipment that the City
determines to be necessary on both the service and the customer-owned generating
plant. The customer shall provide facilities to accommodate such metering. Meters
shall not allow reverse registration.

operated in 'parallel with the City's system, the customer will design and operate
its facilities such that the reactive current requirements of the portion of the
Customer's load supplied from such plant are not supplied at any time from the
City's system. If the City determines by test that the customer-owned generating
plant is placing a reactive demand on the City's electric system in excess of 0.1
