Nev. Admin. Code § 704.8807

Current through November 25, 2024
Section 704.8807 - Restricted use
1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, the use of a master meter for a new building is prohibited if:
(a) The building has more than one unit;
(b) The occupant of each unit controls a portion of the electric energy used in the building; and
(c) The long-run benefits of separate metering outweigh the costs of purchasing and installing separate meters.
2. Master metering is not prohibited if a new building is initially constructed as one unit and is later subdivided into several units and if the utility determines that individual metering of each unit is impractical or impossible.
3. A customer who desires to have a master meter installed in a new building has the burden of proving to the utility that master metering for the building should not be prohibited. If the customer is not satisfied with the utility's determination on the matter, he or she may file a complaint against the utility with the Commission pursuant to the Rules of Practice and Procedure before the Commission.
4. The utility shall file with the Commission and provide each customer who requests the installation of a master meter a written statement of the criteria which the utility uses in evaluating such a request.
