Where the demand is intermittent or subject to violent fluctuations, a 5-minute interval may be used. 2. Interruptible Load: The Interruptible Load is the estimated increment of the customer's Maximum Demand that normally occurs above the Firm Service Level and, under normal operating conditions, would be the amount of load to be disconnected from the Company's lines within the specified time period following Notice of Interruption. 3. Firm Service Level: Firm Service Level is the Maximum Demand the Company is expected to supply and/or deliver during any Period of Interruption. The Firm Service level shall be specified by the customer. Increases in Firm Service Level may be made no more often than once per year, upon written request by the customer between November 1 and December 1 and execution of an Amendment To Contract For Interruptible Service (Form ).* However, for a 30-day period commencing the date the Commission or its delegate declares to be the start date for Direct Access, on a one time basis, interruptible customers shall be given the opportunity to increase their Firm Service Level. Reductions in Firm Service Level may be permitted if an Amendment To Contract For Interruptible Service (Form ) is executed. Customers served under this schedule shall establish a Firm Service Level of zero or greater. 4. Interruptible Demand and Energy: Interruptible Demand is all kw of Maximum Demand in excess of the Firm Service Level. Interruptible Energy is the number of kwh in each Time Period which exceeds the product of the Firm Service Level kw multiplied by the total number of hours in the Time Period. 5. Notice of Interruption: Upon notification to the Company from the Independent System Operator (ISO), a Notice of Interruption can be given under this schedule. The ISO is expected to direct the Company to curtail specific amounts of load (up to the full capability of the interruptible program) sufficient to maintain operating reserves above the five percent level through the next forecast hour. The Company shall notify the customer to reduce the Maximum Demand imposed on the electric system to the Firm Service Level. Upon receipt by a customer of a Notice of Interruption from the Company, the customer shall reduce the Maximum Demand imposed on the electric system to the Firm Service Level within 30 minutes. 6.

PUC Sheet No E E Schedule AP - I Sheet 4 AGRICULTURAL AND PUMPING - INTERRUPTIBLE SPECIAL CONDITIONS 10. Billing: A Customer s bill is first calculated according to the total rates and conditions above. The following adjustments are made depending on the option applicable to the customer. a. Bundled Service Customers receive supply and delivery services solely from Edison. The Customer s bill is based on the total rates set forth above. The Power Exchange (supply) component is determined by multiplying the Averaged Power Exchange (PX) Energy Charge determined as set forth in Schedule PX by the Customer s total usage. b. Direct Access Customers purchase energy from an Energy Service Provider and continue receiving supply and delivery services from Edison. The Averaged PX Energy Charge is determined as specified for a Bundled Service Customer. The customer s bill will be calculated as for a Bundled Service Customer, but the Customer will receive a credit for the Averaged PX Energy Charge. (L) (L) c. Hourly PX Pricing Option Customers receive supply and delivery services solely from Edison. A Customer taking Hourly PX Pricing Option service must have an interval meter installed at its premise to record hourly usage, since PX Energy Costs change hourly. If such metering is not currently installed, it shall be installed at the Customer s expense before Hourly PX Pricing can be provided. Edison s charges for such metering are determined as set forth in Rule 2, Section J, and, if applicable, the Catalog of Customer Choices. The bill for Hourly PX Pricing Option Customer is determined by calculating the bill as if it were for a Bundled Service Customer, then crediting the bill by the amount of the Averaged PX Energy Charge, as determined for Bundled Service and Direct Access Customers, then adding the hourly PX Energy Cost amount which is determined by multiplying the hourly energy used in the billing period by the hourly PX Energy Cost determined as set forth in Section 1 of Schedule PX, and the appropriate hourly Line Loss Adjustment Factors as set forth in Section 3 of Schedule PX, and the Uncollectibles expense factor of Generation Charge: The generation charge is calculated based on the total rate less the sum of: Distribution, Transmission, Public Purpose Program, Nuclear Decommissioning, and Fixed Transition Amount (where applicable) charges, the Transmission Revenue Balancing Account Adjustment (TRBAA), and the Public Utilities Commission Reimbursement Fee. The Competition Transition Charge (CTC) is calculated residually by subtracting the Averaged PX Energy Charge calculated as set forth in Schedule PX from the generation charge (See Rate Components Table for the applicable rate schedule).
