						submetered party the same average cost for each kilowatthour used by the
						submetered party. When the meter reading dates of the submetering customer
						differ from those of the submetered party, the average cost of each of the
						submetering customer's billing periods will be applied to the submetered party,
						in proportion to the number of days that the submetered party used energy in
						those periods.
(b) Every
						submetering customer shall indicate, on written bills to a submetered party,
						the present and immediately preceding submeter reading dates, the present and
						immediately preceding submeter readings, the kilowatthours consumed by the
						submetered party, the submetering customer's average cost for all relevent

						appropriate steps to insure that the service delivered to a submetered party is
						delivered at a voltage that is in conformity with the most recent standard for
						service voltage issued by the American National Standards Institute ("ANSI"),
						or within one percent of that received by the submetering customer.
(d) Every submetering customer shall, upon
						request of a submetered party, render a statement of past electric company
						meter readings, total electric company charges applicable to the submetering
						customer, submeter readings and charges applicable to the submetered party, for
						a period of at least twelve months.
(e) Every submetering customer shall read the
						submeters each month, at regularly scheduled intervals. The meter reading date
						should not be advanced or postponed more than five days from the normal reading
						date and to the extent practical, shall coincide with the meter reading of the
						electric company.
(f) In addition
						to the monthly readings, a submetering customer shall read the submeter for a
						submetered party, at the time of initiation of service and termination of
						service to the submetered party. Where a final bill is to be rendered to a
						submetered party upon the termination of service the submetering customer shall
						utilize the last current average kWh cost available for that portion of the
						bill for which there is no current bill available to the submetering
						customer.
