Service and Meter Installation Requirements Guide

04.80   FARM SERVICE

Service to farms will be provided in the manner prescribed for dwellings but if more than one service connection is desired, the facilities may be installed as follows:

Customer will furnish and install one centrally located pole and all facilities beyond this centrally located pole. An installation as shown on figure in Requirements 12.22 or 12.24 should be used.

Customer service conductors shall not be less than # 6 gauge copper or equivalent. Service entrances shall conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code, but in no case shall they have a capacity of less than 100 amperes for dwellings. Other building services shall be of adequate size for the connected load and meet National Electrical Code requirements.

If it is impractical to serve all farm buildings from a centrally located pole due to distance between buildings or the necessity of crossing public highways, GPU Energy will provide services and meters for separate accounts for each building as conditions require.

If emergency service equipment is to be installed by Customer, refer to Requirement 4.90 .
