single- family residential and farm service may be served under
this schedule.
B. Character of Service. Sixty cycle, alternating
current, 120/240 volts nominal, single phase service will be
furnished under this schedule, supplied through a single meter
and one point of delivery.
C. Rate:
1. Basic Charge $6.008.50 per month
2. Energy Charge $0.03440.0346 per kWh
Section 2. Section 9 of Ordinance 2054 as most
recently amended by Section 1 of Ordinance 2637, and Section
13.12.040 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code, are each amended to
read as follows:
13.12.040 Schedule GS -981 - General Service.
A. Applicability. This schedule applies to all accounts
other than residential and nonprofit tax - deductible with a
required transformer capacity below 100 KVA. Generally accepted
utility standards provide that a 100 KVA transformer may serve a
-3--
maximum total connected load of 165 KVA.
B. Character of Service. Sixty cycle, alternating current
at such phase and voltage as the City may have available will be
furnished under this schedule, applied through a single meter and
one point of delivery.
C. Rate:
1. Basic Charge
a. Single phase $10.00 per month
b. Three phase $25.00 per month
2. Monthly Energy charge: $0.03320.0346 per kWh
Section 3. Section 3 of Ordinance 2068, as most
recently amended by Section 2 of Ordinance 2637, and Section
13.12.041 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code are each amended to
read as follows:
13.12.041 Schedule GD -981 - General Service Demand.
A. Applicability. This schedule applies to all accounts
other than residential and nonprofit tax - deductible with a
required transformer capacity equal to or greater than 100 KVA
where the City owns the primary distribution system. Generally
accepted utility standards provide that a 100 KVA transformer may
serve a maximum total connected load of 165 KVA.
B. Character of Service. Sixty cycle, alternating current
at such phase and voltage as the City may have available will be
furnished under this schedule, applied through a single meter and
one point of delivery.
C. Rate:
1. Basic Charge:

b. Three phase $25.0053.50 per month
2. Monthly Energy charge: $0.02300.0243 per kWh
3. Billing Demand:
a. Billing demand for each month shall be
the maximum 15- minute demand for the
month after adjustment for power
factor.
b. Monthly Demand Charge:$3.772.49 per KW
4. Time -of -Day Demand Metering Option. At the
option of the customer, a time -of -day demand
meter is available. This meter restricts the
hours to which the billing demand is charged to
the hours of 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM, Monday through
Saturday. The customer is responsible for the
cost differential between the time -of -day demand
meter and non - time - differentiated demand meter.
This cost differential will be assessed on the
customer's bill at the rate of $5.00 per month
until the entire difference is repaid to the
City. City Light will install, own, and maintain
all metering devices. The rate per kW will
remain the same as in Section C.3.b above.
5. Primary Metering Adjustment. When electric
current is measured at primary voltage, meter
readings shall be multiplied by a factor of 0.985
before charges are computed to reflect delivery
to the customer at secondary voltage.
6. Power Factor Adjustments:
If the average power factor at which power is
delivered to the customer is less than 95%
lagging, the billing demand may be increased by
-2-
one percent of each percent or major fraction
thereof that the average power factor is less
than 95% lagging. The average power factor will
be determined by measurement of kilowatt hours
and reactive kilovolt- ampere hours during the
billing period using the following formula:
PF = kWh
V (kWh) 2 + (kvarh) 2
Where PF = Average power factor
Where kWh = Kilowatt hours
Where kvarh = Reactive kilovolt-aTeE
hours
The metering reactive volt- ampere -hours shall be
ratcheted to prevent reverse rotation when the
power factor of the load is leading.
Section 4. Section 3 of Ordinance 2637 and Section
13.12.042 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code are each amended to
read as follows:
13.12.042 Schedule NP -981 - Nonprofit Tax - Deductible.

at such phase and voltage as the City may have available will be
furnished under this schedule, applied through a single meter and
one point of delivery.

b. Intermediate Load Period Demand Charges:
The maximum one -hour demand in excess of heavy load demand

demand may be increased by one percent of each percent or major
fraction thereof that the average power factor is less than 95%
lagging. The average power factor will be determined by
measurement of kilowatt hours and reactive kilovolt - ampere hours
during the billing period using the following formula:
PF = kWh
V (kWh) 2
+ (kvarh)2

defined as all City load less the customer's load.
b. The customer's actual hourly load is then
multiplied by the ratio calculated for that hour to obtain hourly
computed load.
c. The monthly maximum computed load shall be
the largest computed load value during the hours of 7:00 A.M.
through 10:00 P.M., Monday through Saturday within the month.
