SCHEDULE 6
RESIDENTIAL SERVICE
ON-SITE GENERATION
AVAILABILITY
Service under this schedule is available at points on the Company's interconnected system within
the State of Idaho where existing facilities of adequate capacity and desired phase and voltage are
adjacent to the location where Residential Service, On-Site Generation is desired, and where additional
investment by the Company for new transmission, substation or terminal facilities is not necessary to
supply the desired service. This service is available to Customers intending to operate Exporting Systems
to generate electricity to reduce all or part of the monthly energy usage.
Standard rates will be applicable unless a Customer elects time-of-use. Time-of-use is an
optional, voluntary service that provides Customers the option to take electric service with seasonal time-
of-use energy rates. If a Customer requests to participate in the optional time-of-use service, the
Customer will be placed on time-of-use under this schedule effective with their next billing cycle.
A Customer may terminate their participation in the time-of-use service at any time. However, the
Customer may not subsequently elect time-of-use service under this schedule for one year after the
effective date of cancellation. If a Customer requests to be taken off of time-of-use service under this
schedule, the Customer will be moved back to the default service under this schedule as of the last meter
read date.
Effective December 21, 2019, Schedule 6 is closed to new applications for Net Energy Metering.
APPLICABILITY
Service under this schedule is applicable to Electric Service required for residential service
Customers for general domestic uses, including single phase motors of 7½ horsepower rating or less,
subject to the following conditions:
1. When a portion of a dwelling is used regularly for business, professional or other gainful
purposes, or when service is supplied in whole or in part for business, professional, or other gainful
purposes, the Premises will be classified as non-residential and the appropriate General Service
Schedule will apply. However, if the wiring is so arranged that the service for residential purposes can
be metered separately, this schedule will be applied to such service.
2. Whenever the Customer's equipment does not conform to the Company's specifications
for service under this schedule, service will be supplied under the appropriate General Service Schedule.
3. This schedule is not applicable to standby service, service for resale, or shared service.
4. Customer owns and/or operates a Generation Facility fueled by solar, wind, biomass,
