Application for Electricity Supply - Corenet

1.4 Service ConnectionWherever Grid's existing network permits, supply will be provided from its low voltage mains to acustomer requiring supply at 230V/400V. This is usually possible for a supply requirement notexceeding 45 kVA. Where the supply requirement of a customer exceeds the capacity which can besupplied from the low voltage mains or where the supply is required at high tension, Grid will have toinstall additional equipment to cater for the customer's requirement. In such cases, the customer willhave to provide, at his own expense, electrical equipment room(s) to house the Grid's equipment as asubstation.1.5 Service Connection Charge1.5.1A service connection charge, which depends on the supply capacity, is to be paid by the customerrequesting the supply. However, developers of private housing and industrial estates, who arerequired to provide and install at their own expense all low voltage mains and service cables withintheir developments, are not required to pay service connection charges.1.5.2For more details on service connection charges please refer to Section 3 on Terms and Conditions ofSupply.1.6 Temporary SupplyPSL may consider giving electricity supply to construction sites on a temporary basis. Special termsand conditions will apply in such cases.1.7 Meter1.7.1All meters required for measuring a customer's electricity consumption and demand (whereapplicable) will be provided and maintained by Grid at its own expense. The customer must providemeter boards, compartments, kiosks, etc as Grid may require for the installation of its meteringequipment.1.7.2The customer must notify PSL immediately if any of Grid's metering equipment is damaged; he mustpay for the cost of repairing or replacing the equipment unless such damage is not caused by him inany way whatsoever.1.7.3If a meter is found to be faulty, Grid will repair or replace the faulty meter. The quantity of electricityconsumed during the period when the meter is faulty will be estimated by PSL.1.8 Master And Sub-Metering SchemeA master and sub-metering scheme is applicable for multi-tenanted premises. Under this scheme, theelectricity supply is metered at the intake point and each tenant's supply is also separately meteredand billed under the appropriate tariff. The owner/ developer/landlord shall be billed for the differencein the consumption between that metered at the intake point and the summated consumption of thetenants. Where the owner/ developer/ landlord takes supply at high tension and is responsible forstepping down the supply to 230V/400V for distribution to tenants, then a rebate of 2½% on thesummated consumption of the tenants will be given to him.
