FOREWORD
FPL, in cooperation with customers and their agents, wishes to provide adequate electric service in an expeditious manner.
This publication, FPL's Electric Service Standards (ESS), is intended to furnish information often required by customers and their agents (builders, architects, engineers, electricians, etc.) to receive FPL's electric service. The ESS is subject to and subordinate in all respects to FPL's Tariff, as amended from time to time and approved by the Florida Public Service Commission, the Florida Administrative Code as it pertains to publicly held utilities, and to the provisions of the current edition of the National Electrical Safety Code.
This document is not intended to be all inclusive and is not a substitute for direct communication between the Customer and FPL. This direct communication is essential to mutually understanding service needs and requirements, and the ability of FPL to provide prompt and adequate electric service.
FPL's ESS is revised periodically due to ongoing changes in engineering and construction practices, and consequently some of the provisions contained herein may be obsolete.
ESS MANUAL ONLINE
It is essential that the Customer or his agent contact FPL's representative or go online to ensure they have the latest issue of FPL's Electric Service Standards. The ESS is available in pdf format and can be opened with adobe acrobat reader. In addition, it can be saved or printed by section or as a complete manual. The ESS can be found on the web at: www.fpl.com/partner/pdf/electric-service-standards.pdf
FPL PROJECT PORTAL
Making it easy to manage your construction project, the new FPL Project Portal is a site that provides you with self-service options such as applying for a construction project, tracking the status of your project, viewing pending and completed requirements, collaborating with your FPL team, and paying your construction bills online. The FPL Project Portal can be found on the web at: partner.fpl.com/construction.html

I. DEFINITIONS
Base Rate Revenue - For use in these Standards, the non-fuel energy (kwh) and demand charge (kwd), if any, revenue resulting from the Customer's electricity use under the applicable rate schedule. Base Rate Revenue excludes, without limitation, customer charges, taxes, franchise fees; fuel, conservation, capacity payment, environmental charges; and any other charges or credits (such as TR rider, transformer rental, or load management or curtailment credits).
CIAC (Contribution in Aid of Construction) - A nonrefundable charge for electric service where (a) the extension is not justified by projected revenues and/or (b) the cost of providing underground electric facilities exceeds the cost of equivalent overhead facilities ("differential" cost), and/or (c) non-standard service, as determined by FPL, is being requested for the load being served.
Commercial Service - For purposes of these Electric Service Standards, any electric service used for non-residential purposes (excluding those applications found in FPL's "lighting" tariffs).
Customer - Any present or prospective user of FPL's electric service, or any person or entity representing him, such as the architect, engineer, electrical contractor, land developer, builder, etc.
Expected Incremental Base Revenue - The estimated Base Rate Revenue, as defined above and determined by FPL, generated on the facilities being installed or upgraded to serve the Customer.
ESS (Electric Service Standards) - The acronym referring to this publication.
FAC (Florida Administrative Code) - The official compilation of the Rules and Regulations of Florida Regulatory Agencies filed with the Dept. of State under the Provisions of Chapter 120, Fla. Statutes.
FPL - Florida Power and Light Company or an employee properly qualified to represent Florida Power and Light Company.
Ground - A conducting connection between an electrical circuit or piece of equipment and the earth, or to a conducting body that serves in place of the earth.
Meter Socket - A meter socket is a device which provides support and means of electrical connection to a watthour meter. It has a wiring chamber, with provisions for conduit entrances and exits, and a means of sealing the meter in place. The word "socket" in these Standards refers to meter socket.
Mobile Home - A mobile home is a factory assembled structure designed to be used as a living unit, and readily movable on its own running gear. It has no permanent foundation.
Multiple Occupancy Building - A unified structure containing five or more individual dwelling units.
Point of Delivery - The location where FPL-owned conductors are connected to customer-owned conductors. Typical points of delivery include weatherheads, meter sockets, service junction boxes, handholes, padmounted transformers, and vaults. The point of delivery shall be determined by FPL. The point of delivery for an FPL owned and maintained underground residential service lateral is the line side of the meter socket, for an FPL owned and maintained overhead service drop the point of delivery is the attachment to the customer's weatherhead.
Recreational Vehicle (RV) - A vehicle designated for temporary living quarters for camping, traveling, or recreational use. It may have its own motive power, or be mounted on or pulled by another vehicle.
Residential Service - Electric service supplied exclusively for domestic purposes in individually metered dwelling units, where permanent residency is established, including the separately metered non-commercial-use facilities of a residential customer (e.g. garages, water pumps, etc.).
Recreational Vehicle Park or Campground - An accommodation for recreational vehicles or other camping outfits where an individual site is rented, and the intent of the park or campground is not to establish permanent residencies.

Secondary Network Service - A type of electric service generally available only in certain parts of downtown Miami from an existing grid of interconnected secondary conductors. This grid is fed from two or more three-phase transformers connected to different primary feeders. Service voltage from the grid is 120/208 volt, four wire wye. Spot network service (single locations or small confined areas) may be 277/480 volt, four wire wye. The network service is only available in specific locations and new secondary networks are not being constructed.
Service - The conductors and equipment that deliver energy from FPL's system to the wiring system of the premise being served. It also means maintenance of voltage and frequency (within acceptable tolerances) by FPL at the point of delivery.
Service Drop - The overhead conductors from FPL's last pole or other aerial support to and including the splices, if any, connecting the Customer's service entrance conductors at the building or other structure.
Service Entrance - The Customer's installation from the service drop or service lateral connection to and including the service equipment.
Service Entrance Conductors - The Customer's conductors from point of connection at the service drop or service lateral to the service equipment.
Service Equipment - The Customer's equipment which controls the electric service and contains the switching and overcurrent protective devices, usually located near the entry point of the service entrance conductors into the building.
Service Lateral - The underground service conductors connecting FPL's distribution system to the Customer's service entrance conductors.
Standard Service - The minimum level of service, as determined by FPL, for the load to which electric service is being requested by the Customer. Typically, this service is overhead (with wood poles), at the standard voltages specified in ESS Section III.A, to the FPL designated point of delivery. Generally, any service requested of FPL that exceeds FPL's minimum level of service is paid for as a CIAC. All service is alternating current (AC) at 60 hertz (cycles per second).
Tariff - Schedule of FPL rates, charges, and General Rules and Regulations for providing electric service. FPL's Electric Tariff is available for inspection at any FPL business office, and is on file with Florida's Public Service Commission (FPSC). The word "Tariff" in these Standards refers to FPL's Electric Tariff.
Temporary/Construction Service - Limited term electric service to operations such as: Exhibitions, Construction Projects, Fairs, Holiday Lighting, Dredging Jobs, etc.
Transformer Vault - An isolated enclosure, with fire resistant walls, ceilings and floor, in which transformers and related equipment are installed and not continuously attended during operation.

A. Early Notification and Coordination
FPL - As used in these Standards, the word "FPL" represents FPL Company or any employee properly qualified to represent FPL Company.
Customer - For the purpose of these Standards, the word "Customer" represents any present or prospective user of FPL's electric service, or any person or entity representing him, such as the architect, engineer, electrical contractor, land developer, or builder, etc.
Contacting FPL - FPL maintains offices throughout its service area. New extensions of electric facilities to serve customers, or modifications to existing electric facilities, are generally handled by FPL's Construction Department. Information concerning a specific installation should be requested by the Customer from FPL's nearest Construction office. Locations are listed at the end of this section. Early Contact with FPL is necessary to ensure provision of electric service in as timely a fashion as possible.
Close coordination is necessary throughout the planning and construction stages by FPL and the Customer, or those representing him. Particular attention shall be given to the scheduling of the construction of paved areas and the various sub grade installations of the several utilities.
FPL strives to supply its Customers' needs for electric service as efficiently, reliably and economically as possible. Although this publication provides many of the guidelines concerning FPL's character of service and policies, it is not possible to document all the detailed information the Customer may require. This publication is not intended to replace direct communication with FPL. Contact with FPL during the early stages of the Customer's design is strongly encouraged to avoid misunderstanding, delays, and unnecessary expense.
A Notification of New Construction form is available upon request for use by the Customer to facilitate the exchange of information between FPL and the design professionals on large projects.
B. Application for Electric Service
Application for electric service shall be well in advance of the date service will be required. All matters pertaining to the use of electric service should be discussed with FPL at that time. Depending on the service requested, a standard written agreement between the Customer and FPL may be required. Depending on the type of premise or load being served, any or all of the following Information may be required of the Customer:
1. Exact location of premise to be served (i.e., site plan, recorded plat, street address, lot, block number and legal description of property)
2. Size of air conditioning, heating, water heating, cooking, etc; type and voltage of other motor load, number of phases, horsepower; street lighting, traffic signals, etc.
3. Mechanical plans, electrical plans, elevations, etc.
4. Utility (water, sewer, gas, etc.) plans, paving & drainage plans, landscaping plans
5. Any special or unusual requirements
Every reasonable effort will be made by FPL to reach a prompt and mutually satisfactory arrangement with the Customer regarding the characteristics of the service to be furnished and the designated point of delivery.

C. Availability of Desired Type of Electric Service
Contact with FPL early in the Customer's planning stage is strongly encouraged to determine availability of service at any location, FPL's standard type of service for the load to be served, and the designated point of delivery. If the standard type of service does not meet the Customer's requirements, FPL will consider supplying the requested type of service, subject to availability, providing the manner of use does not jeopardize the quality of service to others. It may be necessary for the Customer to compensate FPL for any incremental costs of supplying such service. If special FPL equipment is needed, adequate time shall be allowed to obtain it.
Written information concerning availability and character of service for any desired location will be supplied by FPL. FPL will not be responsible for mistakes resulting from information given orally.
Contact with FPL early in the Customer's design stage is essential so that engineering, material procurement, and job scheduling may be performed in a manner conducive to providing timely service to the customer. Any change in plans that is likely to affect the electric service should be communicated to FPL at once. Failure to do so may result in unnecessary delays and/or expense.
D. Contributions by Customer
Throughout these standards, references are made to customer Contributions In Aid of Construction (CIAC), whereby the customer pays for a portion of the requested service. In all cases, ownership of the requested facility remains with FPL, and payments are required well in advance of FPL's construction, allowing for proper scheduling. Contact your FPL representative concerning the "timing" of the payment. Withholding payment until the latter stages of a project's development may cause unnecessary delays and added expense to the Customer.
In the event trenching and conduit are involved, the customer may provide the trench and/or install the FPL provided PVC conduit, where mutually agreed upon by the customer and FPL. The Customer will receive a credit, as determined by FPL, for such work. The amount of the credit is limited to the total amount of CIAC that is due. Typically, the credit will be granted after the work has been inspected by FPL and, in the case of customer installed conduit, after FPL pulls the cable.
E. Rights of Way and Easements
The customer shall furnish and record satisfactory rights of way and easements, including legal descriptions of such easements and all survey work associated with producing legal descriptions of such easements, as required by and at no cost to FPL before FPL commences construction. Only the unaltered FPL standard form 3722 will be accepted for easements. Before FPL starts construction, these rights of way and easements shall be cleared by the customer of trees, tree stumps and other obstructions that conflict with construction, staked to show property corners and survey control points, graded to within six inches of final grade, with soil stabilized. In addition, the customer shall provide stakes showing final grade along the easement. Such clearing and grading shall be maintained by the customer during construction by FPL.
Where plats are concerned, FPL requests the plat be presented before recording so provisions for easements can be included on the plat. This will minimize, if not eliminate, future costs associated with producing, securing, and recording the easement(s).
When building additions to existing structures, care shall be taken not to encroach upon FPL's easements. Violation of FPL's granted easements may result in legal consequences to the building owner. FPL should be contacted early in the design and planning stage in order to determine if changes to FPL's existing easement are required.

F. Measuring (Metering) Electric Consumption
1. FPL's individual electric metering requirements are set forth in Florida Administrative Code 25-6.049, which states in sections (5) through nine (9):
(5) Individual electric metering by the utility shall be required for each separate occupancy unit of new commercial establishments, residential buildings, condominiums, cooperatives, marinas, and trailer, mobile home and recreational vehicle parks. However, individual metering shall not be required for any such occupancy unit for which a construction permit was issued before, and which has received master-metered service continuously since January 1, 1981. In addition, individual electric meters shall not be required:
(a) In those portions of a commercial establishment where the floor space dimensions or physical configuration of the units are subject to alteration, as evidenced by non-structural element partition walls, unless the utility determines that adequate provisions can be made to modify the metering to accurately reflect such alterations;
(b) For electricity used in central heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems, or electric back up service to storage heating and cooling systems;
(c) For electricity used in specialized-use housing accommodations such as hospitals, nursing homes, living facilities located on the same premises as, and operated in conjunction with, a nursing home or other health care facility providing at least the same level and types of services as a nursing home, convalescent homes, facilities certificated under Chapter 651, F.S., college dormitories, convents, sorority houses, fraternity houses, and similar facilities;
(d) For lodging establishments such as hotels, motels, and similar facilities which are rented, leased, or otherwise provided to guests by an operator providing overnight occupancy as defined in paragraph (8)(b);
(e) For separate, specially-designated areas for overnight occupancy, as defined in paragraph (8)(b), at trailer, mobile home and recreational vehicle parks and marinas where permanent residency is not established;
(f) For new and existing time-share plans, provided that all of the occupancy units which are served by the master meter or meters are committed to a time-share plan as defined in Chapter 721, F.S., and none of the occupancy units are used for permanent occupancy.
(g) For condominiums that meet the following criteria: 1. The declaration of condominium requires that at least 95 percent of the units are used solely for overnight occupancy as defined in paragraph (8)(b) of this rule; 2. A registration desk, lobby and central telephone switchboard are maintained; and 3. A record is kept for each unit showing each check-in and check-out date for the unit, and the name(s) of the individual(s) registered to occupy the unit between each check-in and check-out date. (6) Master-metered condominiums. (a) Initial Qualifications In addition to the criteria in paragraph (5)(g), in order to initially qualify for master-metered service, the owner or developer of the condominium, the condominium association, or the customer must attest to the utility that the criteria in paragraph (5)(g) and in this subsection have been met, and that any cost of future conversion to individual metering will be the responsibility of the customer, consistent with subsection (7) of this rule. Upon request and reasonable notice by the utility, the utility shall be allowed to inspect the condominium to collect evidence needed to determine whether the condominium is in compliance with this rule. If the criteria in paragraph (5)(g) and in this subsection are not met, then the utility shall not provide master-metered service to the condominium. (b) Ongoing Compliance The customer shall attest annually, in writing, to the utility that the condominium meets the criteria for master metering in paragraph (5)(g). The utility shall establish the date that annual compliance materials are due based on its determination of the date that the criteria in paragraphs

(5)(g) and (6)(a) were initially satisfied, and shall inform the customer of that date before the first annual notice is due. The customer shall notify the utility within 10 days if, at any time, the condominium ceases to meet the requirements in paragraph (5)(g).
(c) Upon request and reasonable notice by the utility, the utility shall be allowed to inspect the condominium to collect evidence needed to determine whether the condominium is in compliance with this rule.
(d) Failure to Comply If a condominium is master metered under the exemption in this rule and subsequently fails to meet the criteria contained in paragraph (5)(g), or the customer fails to make the annual attestation required by paragraph (6)(b), then the utility shall promptly notify the customer that the condominium is no longer eligible for master-metered service. If the customer does not respond with clear evidence to the contrary within 30 days of receiving the notice, the customer shall individually meter the condominium units within six months following the date on the notice. During this six month period, the utility shall not discontinue service based on failure to comply with this rule. Thereafter, the provisions of Rule 256.105, F.A.C., apply.
(7) When a structure or building is converted from individual metering to master metering, or from master metering to individual metering, the customer shall be responsible for the costs incurred by the utility for the conversion. These costs shall include, but not be limited to, any remaining undepreciated cost of any existing distribution equipment which is removed or transferred to the ownership of the customer, plus the cost of removal or relocation of any distribution equipment, less the salvage value of any removed equipment.
(8) For purposes of this rule: (a) "Occupancy unit" means that portion of any commercial establishment, single and multi-unit residential building, or trailer, mobile home or recreational vehicle park, or marina which is set apart from the rest of such facility by clearly determinable boundaries as described in the rental, lease, or ownership agreement for such unit. (b) "Overnight Occupancy" means use of an occupancy unit for a short term such as per day or per week where permanent residency is not established. (9)(a) Where individual metering is not required under subsection (5) and master metering is used in lieu thereof, reasonable apportionment methods, including sub-metering may be used by the customer of record or the owner of such facility solely for the purpose of allocating the cost of the electricity billed by the utility. The term "cost" as used herein means only those charges specifically authorized by the electric utility's tariff, including but not limited to the customer, energy, demand, fuel, conservation, capacity and environmental charges made by the electric utility plus applicable taxes and fees to the customer of record responsible for the master meter payments. The term does not include late payment charges, returned check charges, the cost of the customer-owned distribution system behind the master meter, the customer of record's cost of billing the individual units, and other such costs. (b) Any fees or charges collected by a customer of record for electricity billed to the customer's account by the utility, whether based on the use of sub-metering or any other allocation method, shall be determined in a manner which reimburses the customer of record for no more than the customer's actual cost of electricity. (c) Each utility shall develop a standard policy governing the provisions of sub-metering as provided for herein. Such policy shall be filed by each utility as part of its tariffs. The policy shall have uniform application and shall be nondiscriminatory.

G. Conjunctive Billing or Totalized Metering as disallowed in FAC 25-6.102
(1) Conjunctive billing means totalizing metering, additive billing, plural meter billing, conjunctional metering, and all like or similar billing practices which seek to combine, for billing purposes, the separate consumptions and registered demands of two or more points of delivery serving a single customer.
(2) A single point of delivery of electric service to a user of such service is defined as the single geographical point where a single class of electric service, as defined in a published rate tariff, is delivered from the facilities of the utility to the facilities of the customer.
(3) Conjunctive billing shall not be permitted. Bills for two or more points of delivery to the same customer shall be calculated separately for each such point of delivery.
(4) A customer operating a single integrated business* under one name in two or more buildings and/or energy consuming locations may request a single point of delivery and such request shall be complied with by the utility providing that:
(a) Such buildings or locations are situated on a single unit of property; or (b) Such buildings or locations are situated on two or more units of property which are
immediately adjoining, adjacent or contiguous; or (c) Such buildings or locations are situated on two or more units of property, which are
immediately adjoining, adjacent or contiguous except for intervening streets, alleys or highways.
In all cases arising in sub-paragraph (a), (b), or (c), it shall be the customer's responsibility to provide the electrical facilities necessary for distributing the energy beyond the single delivery point [or pay to FPL a monthly rental fee for FPL-owned facilities beyond the meter].
*The word "business" as used in this section shall be construed as including residences and educational, religious, governmental, commercial, and industrial operations.
H. Electrical Inspections and Connection of Service
When a Customer's electrical installation has been completed, it shall be inspected by the local electrical inspector to ensure compliance with the National Electrical Code and such local rules that may apply. FPL cannot energize new service installations until such inspection has been made, and until formal notice from the inspecting authority has been received by FPL.
I. Customer Responsibility for Safety and Adequacy of Wiring
Electric service is rendered to the Customer with the understanding that he will not use any appliance or device which is not properly constructed, controlled and protected, or that may adversely affect service rendered to him or other Customers. FPL shall reserve the right to discontinue or refuse service to any apparatus or device, which in its opinion, may adversely affect the service to any other Customer or utility or that may be of an improper or unsafe type (FAC 25-6.105), even if the inspection, as mentioned in paragraph "H" above, has been received by FPL. However, FPL assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any portion of the Customer's wiring installation, FPL depends upon the local inspecting authority to ensure the adequacy of the wiring on the customer's premise.
Compliance with the National Electrical Code, National Electrical Safety Code and local codes ensures that the installation conforms to recognized minimum safe practices. It is the responsibility of the Customer to comply with all Code requirements.

The Customer shall decide whether additional capacity should be provided for future load growth. In general, FPL recommends that an adequate margin for load growth be provided.
J. Access to FPL Facilities
Access to the Customer's premise shall be provided for the purpose of reading meters, installing, maintaining, inspecting or removing FPL's property, and other purposes incident to performance under or termination of FPL's agreement with the Customer, and in such performance, FPL or its representatives shall not be liable for trespass.
All employees of FPL who may have business on the Customer's property are required to identify themselves as FPL employees upon request. If anyone representing himself as an employee of FPL cannot produce identification, FPL is to be notified at once.
K. Load Balance
To prevent overloading the service conductors and transformer coils, the Customer's electrical load shall be properly balanced on the service entrance conductors and service equipment.
On 120/240 volt, four wire delta services, the conductor identified as high voltage to ground, commonly known as the "high leg" or "power leg", shall only be used to feed into a three phase load circuit and shall not be used as a phase to ground conductor.
L. Customer Owned Generators
1. Standby Generator
In some cases, the Customer may wish to provide an emergency 60 hertz generator to supply a portion, or all, of his electric service in the event of failure of FPL's service.
In such cases, the Customer shall provide a transfer device which meets the National Electrical Code and is listed and labeled by a Nationally Recognized Test Lab (NRTL), such as U.L., to a standard equal to U.L. 1008 Transfer Switch Equipment, or listed and labeled to one of the following;
U.L. 67 Panel boards U.L. 98 Enclosed switches U.L. 891 Switchboards
AND, the device is also labeled as "Suitable for use as transfer equipment in accordance with article 702 of the NEC" or similar verbiage indicating that it can be used as transfer equipment. Note: the second label, referring to the using the device as transfer equipment, will not have a U.L. mark on the label, but still meets U.L. by the existence of the first label. This switch shall be provided by the customer and shall disconnect the Customer's service equipment from FPL's lines before connecting it to the emergency generator.
2. Parallel Generation and Cogeneration
FPL approval is required where the Customer is considering the use of Cogeneration (the simultaneous production in one facility of electricity and other useful forms of energy such as steam or heat) or small power producer generation (i.e., those using renewable resource fuel sources) if it is to connect to FPL's system. Consult with FPL for further details.
Customers considering the installation of generating equipment intended to supply a portion or all of their electric service, shall consult with FPL regarding the design, installation and the

operation of this generating equipment. Momentary parallel generation is limited to 100ms maximum. Generation other than cogeneration and small power producers shall not operate in parallel with FPL's systems without proper protective equipment for the interconnection as outlined by FPL. The Customer's system design shall be submitted for review and approval by FPL before any connection is made. The Customer is responsible for the full cost of any modifications to FPL's facilities necessary to accommodate the Customer's system.
Caution: FPL shall be consulted before any type of generating or communications equipment is installed and connected to any circuit which is or could be fed from FPL's distribution system.
M. Unauthorized Attachments
FPL prohibits any attachments to its poles or other equipment unless specifically authorized by agreement. Such attachments include, but are not limited to fences, banners, signs, clotheslines, basketball backboards, antennas, placards, political posters or any advertising matter. FPL prohibits attachments to electricity meters such as power monitoring devices, shielding to prevent RF communication, and locking devices to prevent utility access. FPL will remove unauthorized attachments without notice. Meter sockets and Customer's electric service risers are not to be attached to FPL poles, except where permitted by FPL.
Customer owned secondary capacitors, surge arresters, or photovoltaic system interconnects may not be installed inside or outside the meter socket or connected to FPL's conductors. It is suggested these devices be installed in, or adjacent to, the customer's disconnect panel(s) on the load side of the main line switch. Meter socket base bypass switches, such as generator interconnection devices, may not be installed inside or outside the meter socket, refer to section "L" above for generator connection requirements. Also, external grounding bars and other devices are not allowed to be attached to the outside of the meter enclosure.
FPL forbids any work on or access to any of its facilities without authorization.
N. Continuity of Service
FPL strives to furnish reliable, dependable service at a reasonable cost. It cannot guarantee service continuity, however, and provides service in accordance with standards set forth in its Electric Tariff. Some Customers may have equipment which cannot tolerate an occasional interruption. They may wish to invest in a standby system which will supply uninterrupted power upon failure of FPL's service, or when transient interruptions occur. Some computer based systems are sensitive to short voltage spikes or dips on the normal 60 hertz voltage wave. Very short interruptions caused by a fast opening and closing of an FPL circuit breaker may also affect these systems. These transients are unavoidable on a distribution system serving many and varied customer loads and subject to the natural elements. The Customer should consider these conditions as part of his electric service environment. He should choose equipment which can operate satisfactorily in this environment or purchase suitable power conditioning equipment such as an uninterruptible power supply.
O. Conservation Programs
FPL offers conservation incentive programs to help customers reduce energy costs. While helping customers manage electricity more efficiently, FPL reduces the purchase of expensive fuel oil and delays power plant construction, thus reducing costs. Customers can obtain conservation incentive information by calling the phone number listed on their electric bill.

III. SERVICE PROVISIONS
A. Standard Service
FPL's standard service is that supplied by overhead lines, with wood poles, to FPL's designated point of delivery, at the standard voltages specified below. All service is alternating current at 60 hertz (60 cycles per second). All voltages and frequencies mentioned are nominal values.
Single phase, three wire 120/240 volt service is furnished for ordinary lighting loads, household equipment, small appliances, and motors. This voltage is standard throughout FPL's service area for residences and for commercial and industrial applications where three phase service is not required, in the opinion of FPL, or available. Three phase service will be provided where available, or where in the opinion of FPL, the use of single phase is impractical. This, as with all service, is subject to the line extension provisions of section III.C. Devices to convert single phase to three phase can be obtained for a wide range of three phase motors, therefore availability of three phase service for smaller motors should be discussed in advance with FPL. A neutral conductor de-rated no more than 30% from the service conductor ampacity is required for all services.
Voltages Under 600V - In most locations, FPL's overhead secondary distribution system provides service at the following standard voltages:
- Single phase, 120 volt, two wire - Single phase, 480 volt, two wire (street lighting) - Single phase, 120/240 volt, three wire - Single phase, 240/480 volt, three wire
In some locations, FPL's system is able to provide service at the following voltages:
- Three phase, 120/240 volt, four-wire delta - Three phase, 120/208 volt, four wire wye - Single phase, 120/208 volt, three wire (from a three phase, four wire wye system) - Three phase, 277/480 volt, four wire wye
120/240 volt, four-wire delta is determined by FPL to be the standard 3 phase voltage for loads in which individual motor sizes are greater than or equal to 7.5 hp (but not exceeding 20 hp), or, the 3 phase "demand" load does not exceed 75 KVA, or, the "total" demand load does not exceed 150 KVA, and the use of single phase, in the opinion of FPL, is impractical. When the Customer desires three phase, 120/208 or 277/480 volt will be considered the standard voltage only where, in the opinion of FPL, three phase service is required, and 120/240 volt delta service is not, in the opinion of FPL, the standard voltage for the load being served, unless otherwise mutually advantageous to both FPL and the Customer.
Voltages Over 600V - Service requirements for installations requiring higher distribution voltages (primary voltages) are subject to special negotiation between the Customer and FPL. Customers accepting primary voltage will provide, through ownership or rental, all distribution facilities required beyond the metered point, and, all facilities required for reducing or increasing the FPL supplied voltage to any other voltage which he may require.
If the customer will be leasing transformers from FPL for use beyond the metered point, in addition to the voltages under 600V listed above, the following voltages over 600V may be available:
- Single phase, 2400/4160 volt* - Single phase, 7620/13,200 volt** - Single phase, 13,200/22,860 volt***
- Three phase, 2400/4160 volt grounded wye - Three phase, 7620/13,200 volt grounded wye - Three phase, 13,200/22,860 volt grounded wye
(For connection phase to neutral to a grounded wye system rated: *2400/4160 volts; **7,620/13,200 volts; ***13,200/22,860 volts)

Typically, where the customer requests service considered by FPL to be non-standard for the load being served, the Customer will bear the additional expense as a CIAC.
B. Point of Delivery
The point of delivery is defined as that location where FPL's electric facilities connect to those of the Customer's. FPL will give considerable weight to the Customer's preference, but shall reserve the right to designate this location. Should the Customer request a location other than that designated by FPL, and FPL approves, the Customer shall be responsible for all additional costs to extend beyond FPL's designated point.
C. Extension of FPL's Electric Facilities
1. General - Amounts due as Contributions In Aid of Construction (CIAC) from customers who require extensions or "upgrades" of distribution facilities are calculated in accordance with Florida Administrative Code (FAC) Section 25-6.064 and FPL's Tariff (General Rules and Regulations paragraph 2.2).
2. Overhead Extensions - FPL extends or upgrades its overhead facilities at no charge if:
a. the facilities being built are for standard service for the load being served, and b. FPL's expenditure is supported by the Estimated Annual base rate Revenue (EAR)
Other factors that may affect the approval of the extension include:
- The potential of other customers to be served from the same extension or addition within a five year period
- The permanency of the installation being served - The expected completion date of the project - The need to improve facilities at or near the area to be served such that the line
extension can be installed - Issuance of a construction permit - Examination of architectural plans
A nonrefundable Contribution in Aid of Construction (CIAC) will be required for any overhead extension where the total estimated job cost for the extension or upgrade (excluding service drops and meters) required to provide standard service, as determined by FPL, exceeds four (4) times the estimated annual incremental base rate revenue (EAR). This CIAC amount is equal to the difference between that estimated total job cost (excluding service drops and meters) and four (4) times the EAR. For upgrade of facilities, the customer is also charged for the Net Book Value of the existing facilities removed and receives a credit for salvageable items. If the customer requests facilities that are not typically required, in the opinion of FPL, to serve the load, a CIAC in addition to the above difference will also be required. This additional amount is equal to the difference (including service drops and meters) between FPL's estimated cost to provide the standard service and the estimated cost of the non-standard service requested by the Customer.
3. Underground Extensions - Where, in FPL's opinion, overhead distribution facilities are typically provided to serve the load for which service is requested, but underground is provided instead (due to Customer request or the requirement of a governmental agency), a CIAC is required which is equal to the difference between the total estimated cost to provide the overhead standard service and the total estimated cost of the underground. This differential cost includes all service drops and meters.

Furthermore, if the cost of the overhead system for standard service could not have been supported by estimated incremental base rate revenue, the Customer would pay an additional CIAC amount equal to the difference between that total estimated job cost (excluding service drops and meters) and four (4) times the EAR.
D. Residential Service (under 600v)
A single, one phase, 120/240 volt, three wire overhead service drop per lot is the standard service offered by FPL to residential customers. Excluding any extension charges that might apply (section III.C.2) this service is offered at no charge to FPL's designated point of delivery. Three phase service may be available but only under special circumstances and CIAC charges might apply.
FPL will provide residential underground electric service upon request when the Customer or developer pays the difference between the estimated cost of underground and the estimated cost of overhead facilities, as defined in FPL's General Rules and Regulations for Electric Service and Underground Residential Tariff. The charges quoted in the Tariff are based on conditions which permit employment of rapid construction techniques. This Tariff applies to all residential customers, including those where underground is required by local ordinance.
Underground residential service is offered under the provisions of the Residential Tariff for:
- New subdivisions, known as URD (Underground Residential Distribution) Subdivisions - New underground service laterals from overhead systems - Replacement of existing overhead and underground service laterals - New multiple occupancy residential buildings
1. Underground Service for New Residential Subdivisions (Less than 5 units per building)
When requested, FPL will provide underground distribution facilities in accordance with its standard practices, in (a) recognized new residential subdivisions of five or more building lots and (b) tracts of land upon where five or more separate dwelling units are to be located.
Developers of new URD subdivisions are to contact FPL before the platting process so easements can be included in the plat. Survey work associated with producing legal descriptions of such easements for FPL facilities is to be completed by the developer's surveyor where needed. Early notice also enables FPL to design an efficient URD system and consider preferences the developer may have concerning the location of FPL facilities.
FPL will normally provide the trench and backfill for all its underground distribution facilities, including service laterals. The Customer will provide and install the service entrance conduit (downpipe), the meter socket, and the wiring from the meter socket to the service entrance equipment (Fig. IV-11a,b). If the Customer wants to trench, backfill, and install the FPL provided conduit, and FPL agrees, a credit will be applied towards the contribution amount, up to the amount of the charges that are due.
The charges for underground service are based upon arrangements that will permit serving the subdivision's underground distribution system from overhead feeder mains. If feeder mains are deemed necessary by FPL to provide and/or maintain adequate service and are required to be installed underground by the Applicant or a governmental agency, the Applicant shall pay FPL the difference between the cost of such underground feeder mains and the cost of equivalent overhead feeder mains.
Tariff charges for underground service to new residential subdivisions are based on timely and reasonably full use of the land being developed. Where FPL is required to construct underground facilities through a section or sections of the development where full use of facilities, as determined by FPL, may not be realized for at least two years, FPL may require a deposit

before construction commences. This deposit, to guarantee performance, will be based on the estimated total cost of such facilities. The amount of the deposit, without interest, in excess of any differential charges for underground service will be returned to the applicant on a pro rata basis at quarterly intervals on the basis of utilization. Any portion remaining un-refunded after five years from the date FPL is first ready to render service from the extension will be retained by FPL.
2. Underground Service from an Overhead System to New Residential Buildings (Less than 5 units per building)
FPL will normally provide the trench and backfill, and provide and install the PVC conduit and service lateral conductors. The Customer will provide and install the service entrance conduit (downpipe), provide and install the meter socket and the wiring from the meter socket to the service entrance equipment (Fig. IV-11a,b). If the Customer requests to trench and backfill, and install the FPL provided conduit, and FPL agrees, a credit will be applied towards the CIAC amount, up to the amount of the charges that are due.
If the customer prefers to install, own, and maintain the underground service lateral, FPL will install a handhole at the base of the pole, at the charge specified in the tariff. Customer risers are not permitted to be attached to FPL or telephone company poles.
3. Replacement of Existing Overhead and Underground Residential Service Laterals
If a residential customer wishes to replace an existing FPL overhead service drop with an underground service lateral, or to relocate an existing FPL underground service lateral, or to replace a customer owned underground service lateral, FPL will provide the underground service lateral according to the terms, provisions, and charges specified in the tariff.
The Customer shall provide the trench and backfill, install the FPL provided PVC, and provide all restoration. The trench shall be deep enough to provide 24" of cover (36" maximum) over FPL's service lateral. The customer shall also provide and install the downpipe from the meter socket, replace the meter socket if necessary, and perform all rework necessary to accommodate the new service lateral (Fig. IV-11a,b). If requested by the Customer, and FPL approves, FPL may provide the trench and backfill and install the conduit, but the Customer shall pay for this work based on a specific cost estimate. In either case, FPL will provide, install, and connect the service lateral cable from the secondary source to the meter socket.
4. Mobile Home and Recreational Vehicle (RV) Parks
Individual electric metering by the utility is required for each separate occupancy unit (where the intent is to establish permanent residency) in trailer, mobile home and recreational vehicle (RV) parks for which construction was commenced after January 1, 1981.
FPL will supply service to these individual units provided the service entrances are properly wired and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local building codes, and the wiring is approved by the local inspector.
Overhead service typically requires no CIAC provided the estimated revenue supports the estimated cost of any extension that might be required (section III.C). Underground service requires CIAC in accordance with FPL's Tariff.
FPL's overhead service drop or buried service lateral may not terminate directly on a mobile home or recreational vehicle, but shall run to a pole or pedestal mounted service entrance provided by the Customer. The customer's service equipment is to be mounted on the load side of the meter socket. The wiring from the pole or pedestal to the Mobile Home or RV is also provided and installed by the customer.

For overhead service, a treated pole or equivalent shall be furnished to provide adequate support and elevation for FPL's service drop. Overhead service drops shall have 16 feet of clearance crossing over areas subject to mobile home or recreational vehicle movement. Other clearances are specified in section IV.B and Fig. IV-5.
If service is underground, an approved pedestal shall be furnished to support and protect FPL's cable and meter (Fig. IV-13a,b,c). If the Customer wishes to furnish and use a pedestal which combines the service equipment and the meter socket, he may do so only if he uses equipment on FPL's approved list. It shall be the Customer's responsibility to obtain authorization from FPL before any commitments are made to use this equipment at a particular location. There will be no charge to FPL.
Where individual electric metering is required, it is often advantageous for the Customer to group multiple meter sockets and service equipment on a single pole or pedestal (Fig. IV-13c). Where overhead service is provided, this is aesthetically advantageous in that the number of aerial service drops is minimized. Where underground service is provided, this reduces the CIAC amount required by FPL.
In those parks or areas of parks designated for overnight occupancy (where the intended use is not for purposes of permanent residency), individual electric metering is not required, nor provided by FPL. In these cases, electric consumption is considered commercial use, and FPL will provide a single point of service (or multiple points if deemed necessary or appropriate by FPL) with each point individually metered. Electric wiring from these points to the individual units is the responsibility of the Customer.
5. Multiple Occupancy Buildings (5 Units or more per building)
For new residential multiple occupancy buildings (five or more dwelling units), the Customer may request underground service. FPL will provide underground facilities at or near the building at no cost to the Customer provided FPL is allowed to build its distribution facilities in the most economic and efficient manner. If FPL determines a padmounted transformer is necessary, the transformer will be the point of delivery, to which point the Customer will install (and FPL will connect) his cables. The customer will furnish the transformer pad location per FPL pad specifications (section V.A). The location will typically lie between FPL's source of power and the portion of the building closest to the available source.
Should a point of delivery not preferred by FPL be desired by the Customer, a CIAC will be required to cover any additional cost that might be incurred. Should the Customer provide the suitable location but FPL elects to place its transformer equipment elsewhere, FPL may elect to install its buried secondary conductors to an FPL owned handhole. In this case, the handhole would be the point of delivery.
The Customer shall extend his building service to FPL's designated point of delivery regardless of the distance from Customer's switchgear.
When feeder mains on tracts of land upon which multiple occupancy buildings will be constructed are deemed necessary by FPL to provide and/or maintain adequate service, and underground installation is requested by the Customer or required by a governmental agency, the Customer shall contribute the difference between the cost of underground and the cost of overhead feeder mains. There will typically be no contribution required from the Customer with respect to construction of underground distribution facilities to multiple occupancy dwellings other than feeder mains as long as FPL is free to construct such extensions in the most economic manner, and reasonable full use is made of the tract of land upon which the multiple-occupancy residential buildings will be constructed. Other conditions may require special considerations or arrangements.

6. High-Rise Buildings (Residential, Commercial, or Mixed Use)
General - Standard service to high rise buildings is from a single main vault provided by the Customer, at ground level. If solid bus is used to carry power from the vault to the meter rooms, the bus from the main vault to the meter rooms must be "feeder bus" or "riser bus". "Plug bus" is not allowed prior to the meter centers due to possible current diversion. The Customer may request that FPL extend primary service vertically to single phase transformer vaults located at intervals in the building. This "stacked" vault option is available only if certain criteria are met, FPL agrees, and local codes and inspecting authorities allow this type of construction.
Economic considerations to FPL and the Customer are key factors in deciding whether to use stacked vaults. If stacked vaults are requested, and FPL approves, the Customer will be required to contribute the differential cost. That cost is the difference between the estimated cost of a single main vault and the estimated cost of the multiple vaults.
Criteria for Single Main Vaults:
The load must exceed the following capability or CIAC will apply: - 1000 KVA for 120/208V loop or radial type padmounted transformers - 1000 KVA for 277/480V loop type padmounted transformers - 2500 KVA for 277/480V radial type padmounted transformers
Criteria for Stacked Vaults:
- The units shall be metered according to the requirements set forth in Florida Administrative Code 25-6.049
- Single phase vaults shall be 120/240V and the capacity of the vault shall not exceed 167 KVA
- All switching equipment and/or throwover equipment shall be located in the ground floor main vault
- All critical loads shall be served from the ground floor main vault - At least 6 stacked vaults shall be required, as determined by FPL, to serve the load - The Customer shall adhere strictly to FPL's specifications concerning vault and duct
construction (section V.C)
The Main Vault - The same specifications that apply to any other grade level vault apply also to the main vault of a high-rise, stacked vault distribution system (section V.B). FPL will furnish separate specifications for the main vault.
Agreement to Proceed - The Customer shall secure agreement from FPL on the use of stacked vaults in the early design stages. When this agreement has been reached, the vaults should be physically located near the center of the load they will serve. Single phase vaults will be spaced 3 floors apart (i.e. floor 3, 6, 9, 12, etc.) serving the floor containing the vault and the floors immediately below and above the vault.
The Customer shall obtain engineering information from FPL as to how much space will be needed for FPL's electrical equipment. The Customer should obtain FPL's detailed vault specifications before completion of the design stage.

E. Commercial Service (under 600v)
For commercial Customers whose load is such that, if located in an overhead area it could be served by one (or bank of) single phase aerial transformer(s) rated 100 kVA or less (as determined by FPL), standard service is considered by FPL to be overhead (with wood poles), at the standard voltages specified in section III.A, to the FPL designated point of delivery.
Commercial Underground Service
For loads where overhead service is considered standard by FPL, and underground service is either requested by the customer or required by local governmental agency, a CIAC equal to the difference between the estimated cost of underground and the estimated cost of overhead will be required. These differential charges are specified in FPL's Underground Commercial Distribution Tariff, providing the service requested is at the standard voltage, in the opinion of FPL, for the load being served. Special situations or requests for non-standard voltage may require specific cost estimates. Where EAR does not support the estimated cost of an FPL line extension, additional CIAC will be required (section III.C).
a. Underground Service to Small Commercial Loads
In overhead areas where the meter socket is located at least 5 feet but not more than 100 feet from the utility pole, and where the Customer's main line switch is no more than 60 Amps for a two-wire 120 volt or 125 Amps for a three-wire 120/240 volt service, FPL will install the underground service to the meter socket if the Customer prefers (typically, this is the only situation FPL will install underground service conductor to a commercial Customer's meter socket, unless otherwise mutually advantageous to both the Customer and FPL). A CIAC is required. The Customer provides the trench and backfill (24" minimum cover); the 2" PVC conduit from the meter socket (see Fig. IV-11a,b) to the base of the pole (24" radius 90o 2" PVC bend at base of pole); all restoration, easements and permits.
Otherwise, the customer can install his underground service conductors to an FPL handhole at the base of the pole (where FPL will connect its conductors to the Customer's), where CIAC also applies; or, the customer can elect to receive overhead service. Customer owned risers for commercial electric service are not permitted on FPL or Telephone Company poles.
Where FPL's secondary source is "underground" (i.e. vault, padmounted transformer, or handhole), the customer provides and installs the service conductors, and FPL connects those conductors at that secondary source. If that underground secondary source was existing before the request for service, no CIAC would typically be required.
b. Underground Service to Moderate Commercial Loads
In overhead areas where, in the opinion of FPL, the load is such that secondary voltage can be provided at an overhead source, FPL will provide secondary conductors to a handhole at the base of the pole where FPL will connect to the Customer's underground conductors. If a transformer (or transformers) must be hung to make this secondary voltage available, FPL will consider installing underground primary cable to a padmounted transformer, where FPL will connect to the Customer's underground conductors. In either case, CIAC applies.
If either of these options is not desirable, the customer can elect to receive overhead service. Customer owned risers for commercial electric service are not permitted on FPL or Telephone Company poles.
Where FPL's secondary source is "underground" (i.e. vault, padmounted transformer, or handhole), the customer provides and installs the service conductors, and FPL connects those conductors at the secondary source. If that underground secondary source was existing before the request for service, no CIAC would typically be required.

c. Underground Service to Large Commercial Loads
If the load is such that, if located in an overhead area it could not be served by one (or bank of) single phase aerial transformer(s) rated 100 kVA or less, in the opinion of FPL, FPL's standard service then would consist of underground primary cables (from an overhead source determined by FPL) to a radial padmounted transformer. CIAC would typically not be required if the cost of an equivalent overhead line extension is justified (section III.C), but would be required for cases including, but not limited to; radials that cannot originate from an overhead source where, for instance, a pad mounted switch cabinet must be installed; "loop" systems; underground primary conductors that do not originate at an overhead source at FPL's preferred location; points of delivery requested beyond those designated by FPL; etc.
For larger loads exceeding 2500 KVA and other special circumstances, FPL's standard service consists of underground primary cables from an overhead source (determined by FPL) to a radial vault. The CIAC provisions stated in the preceding paragraph apply to vaults, as well. For padmounted transformer and vault specifications, refer to section V.
d. Automatic Throwover Facilities to Large Commercial Loads
Throwover facilities enable a customer's primary electrical feed to be switched from a preferred source to an emergency source, using automatic FPL switching equipment. Throwover facilities are provided at no charge only in FPL designated underground areas where for physical, operating, or economic reasons, an underground throwover system is in the collective best interest of FPL and its customers.
In non-designated underground areas, throwover facilities may be provided, although CIAC would apply. If a throwover system is feasible, the CIAC would include, but not be limited to, the estimated cost of all additional equipment required for operation of the throwover system and the estimated cost of the additional emergency feeder to the customer's location. New installations with a demand load of at least 500 KVA will be granted a credit, not to exceed the amount of CIAC required, equal to their first year's annual base rate revenue. Existing customers increasing their demand load at least 500 KVA will be granted a credit, not to exceed the amount of CIAC required, equal to their first year's annual base rate revenue.
The type of throwover system equipment to be installed is the decision of FPL. If the customer specifically requests a more expensive option than required for the load being served, the additional cost is borne as CIAC.
For additional information concerning throwover service, refer to the Automatic Throwover System Design Process in the OpModel.
e. Loop service to Large Commercial Loads
Loop service can be provided in lieu of throwover based on the criteria stated in section (d) above. Loop service may be more economical when there is only one feeder (source) available.
Examples of Loop:
Some typical examples of loop service include but are not limited to, strip shopping centers, building supply chains, grocery stores, large hotels, outdoor malls, etc.
For additional information concerning loop service, contact your local construction representative.

F. Underground Service Connections in the City of Miami Network Area
Service voltage in the City of Miami Downtown Network Grid is four wire, three phase wye, 120/208 volts. When other voltages are desired, the Customer is requested to contact FPL to determine their availability. Network service is only available from the existing network grid, new secondary networks are not being constructed.
Service may be available from the underground street secondary mains, or from a vault, depending on the magnitude of the load involved.
For service from the secondary mains, the Customer will provide and install, at the Customer's expense, the conduit and cables from the Customer's main switch or FPL's metering devices to the point of delivery. The point of delivery will be FPL's manhole, pullbox or vault located at or near the property line, as designated by FPL. FPL will connect the Customer's secondary cable to FPL's facilities.
FPL may, where it is mutually advantageous, elect to extend primary circuits into the Customer's property and serve the immediate and adjoining premises from a standard (non-networked) transformer vault located on the Customer's property. See section V.
G. Temporary/Construction Service
1. General
Temporary/construction service is usually a limited term service to installations such as fairs, exhibitions, construction projects, displays and similar projects. Contact FPL regarding availability and applicable installation and removal charges before installing the temporary facility. These nonrefundable charges are paid in advance of FPL's construction.
Where the Customer's service entrance cable does not exceed 200 ampere capacity, the nonrefundable flat charge is specified in FPL's Tariff (Sheet No. 4.030). Larger services may require additional charges. For overhead service, the charge covers installation and removal of an overhead service and meter, at an existing secondary source. For an underground service, the charge covers connecting and disconnecting the Customer's service cable to FPL's existing underground facilities, including installation and removal of the meter. Contact FPL to determine current charges and availability of temporary/construction service.
Service may be single phase or three phase, 60 hertz, at the available standard secondary distribution voltage. This service is available only when FPL has existing capacity in lines, transformers and other equipment at the requested point of delivery.
For overhead temporary service, the Customer shall provide a sturdy and adequate service drop support, complete with service entrance and FPL approved meter enclosure, to accommodate FPL's service drop and meter (Fig. IV-1). In an underground area, a pedestal with FPL approved meter socket shall be provided to accommodate the meter, and the Customer's service cable shall be installed up to FPL's facilities (Fig. IV-2). An adequate amount of service cable shall be left available for FPL crews to pull into the handhole or transformer for connection. Note: In underground residential distribution (URD) areas, handholes will not be installed by FPL for the sole purpose of providing temporary service.
If specific electrical service other than that stated above is required, FPL, at the Customer's request, will determine its feasibility and may provide such service based on the estimated cost of installing and removing such additional electrical equipment. This estimated cost is payable in advance to FPL and will be subject to adjustment or refund based on the actual costs. The additional service may be overhead or underground, depending on circumstances at the particular location, as determined by FPL.

All temporary/construction services shall be subject to all of the applicable Rules, Regulations and Tariff charges of FPL, including service charges. The energy used by the temporary service will be billed monthly under the appropriate rate schedule applicable to commercial and industrial type installations.
The Customer's installation shall satisfy all the requirements of the National Electrical Code and other authorities having jurisdiction.
2. Reduced Cost Alternatives
a. TOP
The TOP (temporary overhead permanent) alternative is available for residential and small commercial customers where the permanent FPL approved meter socket, meter, and weatherhead are configured such that they can be used for temporary service. Upon receipt of the temporary inspection, FPL installs the permanent service to the meter socket, and this service is used for construction purposes until the Certificate of Occupancy is obtained. Since no additional work is required by FPL for this type service, no additional construction charges are required, provided that all of the FPL construction work can be performed in a single field visit. However, check with your local authorities first. Not all inspectors allow this alternative.
b. TUG
The TUG (temporary underground) alternative is available for underground residential services where the permanent FPL approved meter socket, meter, and downpipe are configured such that they can be used for temporary service. Upon receipt of the temporary inspection, FPL installs the permanent service to the meter socket, and this service is used for construction purposes until the Certificate of Occupancy is obtained. Since no additional work is required by FPL for this type service, no additional construction charges (other than the cost of the permanent underground service itself) are required, provided that all of the FPL construction work can be performed in a single field visit. However, check with your local authorities first. Not all inspectors allow this alternative.
One variation of the TUG involves building a portion of the permanent wall and mounting the permanent meter socket, down pipe and customer switch panel on it. The main line switch and breakers for a 120V duplex GFCI receptacle and a 50A 230V receptacle are mounted in the panel with the receptacles mounted below the panel. A minimum 6 mil clear plastic sheet is mounted over the panel to protect it from the weather and a sticker warning of live electrical is placed on the panel. Upon receipt of the Customer's contribution for the permanent underground service, the application for service and the inspection, FPL will install the permanent underground service and meter, and the receptacles mentioned above are used for construction power.
H. Unauthorized Connections & Disconnections
All connections of the Customer's wiring to that of FPL, all disconnects of service entrance conductors, all meter removals and installations and all breaking of FPL meter equipment seals shall be made only by FPL, except as allowed in Section III.I of these standards.
Any other connection or disconnection of FPL's service by the Customer or his agent is prohibited. If done with the intent to injure or defraud, it is punishable by law. Violators will be prosecuted.

The Customer will normally own all the service facilities on his side of the point of delivery; i.e., the point where FPL's wires carrying the voltage of supply are to join the Customer's wires, except for the meters which will be owned by FPL.
The Customer shall notify FPL, in advance, when a change in service (service change) is being considered to accommodate provisions that service and metering facilities remain adequate.
Care must be taken when planning the service change to ensure the existing FPL owned conductors will be long enough to reach the new service equipment. If the FPL service must be replaced in order to reach the new service equipment, the customer may be responsible for the cost of the service replacement.
When a service change requires disconnection of FPL's service, the customer shall request a disconnect/reconnect from FPL. The Customer shall establish an advance appointment to ensure proper coordination between his electrical contractor and FPL crews who will disconnect the service and later reconnect after an inspection (when required by local authorities) is received.
Exception:
FPL normally performs both the disconnect and the reconnect. In certain cases however, the Customer's licensed and qualified electrical contractor is allowed, at his option, but only when approved by FPL, to perform the disconnect on overhead services only, when the following criteria are met:
- The Customer shall be a residential or small commercial facility with a main line switch rating of 300 Amps or less, served by an FPL single phase overhead service. No three phase service shall be disconnected by an electrical contractor. FPL must disconnect all three phase services to ensure that proper phase rotation is maintained.
- FPL service attachment point at the building or structure shall remain intact. No service shall be removed from the attachment point or the attachment point altered in any way.
- The meter socket(s) must not have an FPL locking device installed.
- If multiple meters are involved, the electrician shall "mark" each meter and socket.
- Only a licensed and qualified electrical contractor may perform the disconnect function and he shall schedule a reconnect date (appointment) with FPL before disconnecting the service. If the appointment is not made before the disconnect, FPL will not be responsible for a same day reconnect.
- The service shall be cut on the load side of FPL's connection to the customer's service conductors. No FPL conductors are to be cut.
- The service shall be disconnected before removing the meter(s). No meter is to be removed from an energized meter socket.
- FPL personnel only are to perform the reconnect, and only after an inspection (if required by the local authority) has been received. Electrical contractors are not allowed to reconnect the service.
- The decision to perform this type of disconnect is entirely voluntary for the electrical contractor and allows work to commence without having to wait for FPL to disconnect the service. However, the electrical contractor still has the option of FPL performing the disconnect if he prefers.
J. Service to Special Equipment
The operation of electric furnaces, electric dredges and draglines, large motors and other heavy utilization equipment, if served from FPL's distribution system, might interfere with service to other Customers. Contact FPL concerning the requirements for furnishing this type of service. Refer to Section IX.

K. Service to Boat Facilities
FPL electric service to marinas and private docks will be to a designated point of delivery on shore. The Customer shall bring his service conductors to the point of delivery (such as a handhole, pedestal, junction box, or padmounted transformer). FPL will not extend its conductors onto marinas or docks.
The Customer should install his FPL-approved meter sockets so as not to be a hazard to people on the dock and they shall be accessible for meter maintenance and monthly readings. The socket shall be mounted such that the meter will face the dock and not the open water and not represent a protrusion hazard.
L. 2 wire, 480V Metered Service
On all self-contained, metered installations (320 amperes or less) where the service voltage is 480V to ground (2 wire), a non-automatic disconnect device shall be provided and installed by the Customer on the line side of each individual meter. For meter centers, there shall be one disconnect device on the line side of each meter. The disconnect device shall be lockable or sealable by FPL and adjacent to each meter. The Customer-owned non-automatic (no over current protection) disconnect device ampacity must meet all NEC Guidelines. A lever bypass equipped meter enclosure is required and shall be selected from the Approved Meter Equipment Enclosure List.

IV. SERVICE and METER CONNECTIONS
A. Service Equipment
1. General
The Customer should consult FPL at an early stage to verify availability of service (section II.C) and to determine the FPL designated point of delivery (section III.B). Contact with FPL should be made before the purchase of equipment and its installation. This FPL approval is not a substitute for inspection and approval by the local electrical inspection authority. FPL assumes no responsibility for the Customer's wiring installation. Upon request, FPL will inform the Customer of available short circuit currents.
The Customer shall provide, install, own, and maintain all service entrance conductors, service equipment, and metering equipment cabinets (section VI). The service equipment usually consists of a circuit breaker or switch and fuses, and their accessories, located near the point of entrance of the supply conductors to the buildings or otherwise defined area. It is intended to be the main control and means of cutoff of the supply.
FPL will provide, install, own and maintain adequate meters (and other appurtenant equipment as needed) to measure the electrical quantities required to apply its rate schedules and contracts.
The Customer may choose the type of service equipment he prefers, consistent with local building codes and the National Electrical Code (NEC). It shall be able to successfully interrupt the maximum fault current available at its location. Where load growth is possible, FPL recommends that the capacity of service entrance conductors and service equipment be greater than the minimum requirements of the NEC or other local codes. FPL encourages residential Customers to install a service entrance with a capacity of at least 150 amperes for average homes and more in the case of larger homes.
Service entrance equipment shall be in a location which is accessible and not likely to become obstructed.
Meters shall not be located in the median of divided roads or highways.
The customer's service conductors shall be continuous from the point of delivery to the metering equipment. If splice boxes, pull boxes, troughs, or other such items are located in the service run, they shall provide a means of sealing by FPL with standard company meter seals. Conductors installed in raceways shall comply with NEC Article 300.3.
The customer's service conductors shall be marked (tagged) at the source with the location served. See Fig. IV-14 for tagging details. The customer service cables are to be installed as a set per conduit (i.e. 3 phase service A, B, C, N in one conduit) and marked accordingly to identity cable leg i.e. red, white and blue.
No fuses should be installed at any point in the grounded neutral conductor of the service entrance.
No resistor or reactor or other similar fault current limiting device shall be installed in the neutral or the phase conductors of the service entrance without the approval of FPL.
Where customer owned stepdown transformers are required they will be installed on the load side of the meters.
Where permitted by applicable codes, the service equipment will be on the load side of the meters except that if the service is fed from the City of Miami Downtown Network Grid, the service equipment will precede the meter.
A main disconnecting switch may be ahead of the meters when more than six meters are grouped (Fig. IV-12b). This is because the NEC requires a main disconnect switch where it

would otherwise be necessary to operate more than six switches to completely disconnect the building service.
When installed ahead of the meters, the door of the main switch shall be sealable in both the "on" and "off" positions. The handle shall be sealable in the "off" position. A minimum horizontal separation of 3 feet shall be maintained between natural gas service equipment (vented regulators) and electric metering or termination equipment. Transformers shall have a minimum separation of 5 feet from natural gas service equipment. A minimum separation of 5' shall be maintained between electric metering or termination equipment and liquid petroleum facilities on site but not filled on site. If the liquid petroleum facilities are filled on site the minimum separation is 10 feet.
All commercial installations and all residential three phase installations must contain lever bypass, jaw tension/release socket blocks with the exception of small (120V or 120/240V, with 100 amp meter enclosure), non-critical loads such as:
Lighted signs and billboards
Temporary construction poles and service to construction trailers
Irrigation pumps
Residential detached garages
Gate openers
Barns
Apartment / Condo house meters
Bus stops
Street lighting
The use of a Metallic fishtape to pull service conductors into FPL owned equipment is not allowed.
2. Ampere Rating
a. Residential
The rating of the service entrance equipment shall satisfy the general requirements stated above, the NEC and local building codes. Article 230 of the NEC states that the minimum rating for a one family dwelling with six or more two-wire branch circuits, or an initial computed load of 10 kVA or more is 100 ampere, three-wire. For dwelling units with less load, as computed in accordance with NEC guidelines, the minimum may be 60 ampere, three wire if approved by the inspecting authority. In very special cases where the load is only one or two two-wire branch circuits, the service disconnecting means may have a rating of no less than 15 amperes or 30 amperes, respectively, if approved by the inspecting authority.
As stated previously, FPL recommends that the service entrance have more capacity than the minimum required by the NEC. Local inspecting authorities shall be consulted, since some locations may have requirements that exceed the minimums.

b. Commercial
The rating of the service equipment for commercial or industrial occupancies will depend on the connected load, and in most cases, will be specified by the Customer's engineer.
It is important that the requirements be reviewed with FPL at an early date so that a satisfactory solution as to service voltage and service entrance location can be determined. At this time, details as to the nature and size load to be served may be given to FPL, if this has not already been done.
The service equipment should be chosen to satisfy all the requirements of the Customer for the control of his load and should be consistent with the NEC, local building codes and the rules of the inspecting authority.
One requirement is that the service equipment shall be able to safely interrupt the maximum fault current available at its location. Upon request, FPL will supply information which will permit the maximum available fault current to be determined.
FPL emphasizes that changes in the Customer's load and other loads in the area may require changes in FPL's system. These changes may increase the available fault current. Allowance should be made for this possible increase.
c. Service Equipment Rated Below 600 Volts
In those cases where the Customer's ampere demand at these voltages exceeds 600 amperes, or the Customer's service entrance wire size exceeds 1-800 KCMIL or 2-500 KCMIL conductors, per phase, FPL will normally require the Customer to furnish a current transformer cabinet and an instrument transformer rated meter socket, installed ahead of his service equipment. The Customer will also furnish and install a 1-1/2 inch conduit from the cabinet to the meter socket (refer to the specifications found in section VI). FPL will provide and perform the current transformer installation, install the secondary wiring from the current transformer to the meter socket, and install the meter.
On all self-contained metered installations (320 amperes or less) where the service voltage is 480V to ground (2 wire), a non-automatic disconnect device shall be provided and installed by the Customer on the line side of each individual meter. The disconnect device shall be lockable or sealable by FPL and adjacent to each meter. The Customer-owned non-automatic (no over current protection) disconnect device ampacity must meet all NEC Guidelines. A lever bypass equipped meter enclosure is required and shall be selected from the Approved Meter Equipment Enclosure List.
For service disconnecting means rated 1,000 amperes or more used on a solidly grounded 277/480 volt wye service, ground-fault protection shall be provided. This may be omitted, if approved by the inspecting authority or if the service equipment controls a continuous industrial process where a non-orderly shutdown would otherwise introduce additional or increased hazards.
Where for any reason, a main disconnecting switch is required in multi-metered service installations; it will be on the line side of the meters. The door of this switch box shall be sealable. No socket or current transformer cabinet will be required ahead of this switch.

d. Service Equipment Rated Over 600 Volts
When the Customer takes service at primary voltage, he shall provide service equipment rated for the voltage supplied. The service equipment will normally be on the load side of FPL's instrument transformer metering installation.
The service equipment shall satisfy all the requirements of the NEC, the building code, and the inspecting authority.
FPL shall be consulted so that the Customer's primary service equipment may be coordinated with FPL's feeder protection circuit breakers and fuses.
For padmounted primary metering, the customer will either provide a metering cabinet listed on FPL's approved enclosure list, or FPL will provide the metering cabinet and bill the customer the cost. For primary metering in vaults, FPL will provide, own, and maintain the metering cabinet located inside the vault.
B. Overhead Service
For residential overhead service, the attachment will normally be within ten feet of the corner, on the side of the building nearest FPL's secondary facilities (Fig. IV-4). The Customer's service entrance should be installed in such fashion that service drop wires will not cross over buildings, swimming pools, or adjacent property not owned by the Customer. FPL may provide the Customer with two copies of an "Electric Service and Meter Location" sketch (FPL form 1453) confirming the service location (Fig. IV-3).
1. Vertical Clearance to Ground
The point of attachment for service drops not exceeding 150 volts from any conductor to ground shall allow ten feet of ground clearance to lowest point of sag in the service drop.
Service drops exceeding 150 volts but less than 300 volts from any conductor to ground shall allow ten & one-half feet of ground clearance to lowest point of sag.
Where the service drop must pass over immediately adjacent driveways or parking areas subject to truck traffic or if it is within 25 feet of a swimming pool or if the voltage to ground is over 300 volts, additional clearance shall be provided. In these cases a greater attachment height shall be provided.
The required attachment height will be shown on the "Electric Service & Meter Location" sketch. It is important the Customer furnish this information to the building contractor and electrician.
2. Clearance from Building Openings
Service conductors shall have a clearance of not less than three feet from windows, doors, porches, fire escapes or similar openings.
3. Clearance from Swimming Pools
FPL requires a minimum horizontal clearance of 10 feet from its overhead facilities to swimming pool edges or pool enclosures. Underground facilities require a 5 feet minimum horizontal clearance from the swimming pool. Additional clearances apply to diving boards and other pool accessories depending on configuration. Failure to maintain these required clearances will result in costly relocations. Please contact FPL for any questions regarding clearances prior to construction of the pool and facilities.

4. Anchorage for Overhead Service Drop Cable or Wires
The Customer shall provide a safe and adequate anchorage for FPL's overhead service drop conductors at the agreed upon location and height.
FPL will furnish, and the Customer will install, a suitable attachment for the service drop. The attachment device furnished will vary, to be compatible with the type of building construction (Fig. IV-6a thru 6c).
FPL WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE TO THE CUSTOMER'S BUILDING OR WIRING RESULTING FROM FAILURE OF THIS ANCHORAGE.
The point of service drop attachment and its height will be shown on the "Electric Service and Meter Location" sketch. It should be sufficient to provide all the required clearances as shown in Fig. IV-5. The location should be accessible from the ground by a ladder.
Where the height of the building would not allow adequate clearance from service drop to ground, the Customer shall furnish and install a service mast or other approved extension (Fig. IV-6a). FPL will provide and install the bracket for attaching the service drop to the service mast.
5. Installation of Service Entrance
The service entrance conductors shall be provided and installed by the customer in accordance with local building codes and the latest NEC. The conductors will extend a minimum of 36 inches beyond the service weatherhead to permit connection to FPL's service drop wires. FPL limits the number of customer conductors per service to three per phase (i.e. - 3 weatherheads with one conductor per phase; or 2 weatherheads - one with parallel conductors and one with single conductors; or 1 weatherhead with three conductors per phase where allowed by code). Call your local new construction office in situations where the load exceeds the capacity of three 750 KCMIL AL or CU conductors per phase.
The service entrance weatherhead shall be above the service drop attachment. If this is impractical, the weatherhead shall not be farther than 24" from the point of attachment.
Service drop conductors and service entrance conductors will be arranged in a manner that will prevent water from getting into the service entrance raceway or cable sheath (Fig. IV-6a).
The neutral conductor of the service entrance shall be identified by the Customer.
Wiring of the meter socket shall be as shown in the appropriate sketch of Fig. IV-8.
The service entrance conduit is installed by the Customer from the service weatherhead to the meter socket or the service entrance equipment, when this precedes the meter. It may be either exposed on the exterior building wall, or concealed within the structure itself in a permanently inaccessible location. Condulets (such as LB, LL, LR) shall not be used. Where exposed to the weather, conduit shall have threaded joints and shall be arranged to drain.
In the case of the service entrance conductors for a three phase, four wire delta service, one of the ungrounded conductors will have a higher voltage to ground than the other two conductors (Fig. IV-8, Meter Symbol J). This conductor shall be durably and permanently marked by an outer finish that is orange in color or by other durable effective means, and landed on the right side of the meter can. This marking will ensure connection to the proper FPL conductor when the service is connected.

Multiplexed overhead service drops of 750v to ground or less located more than 10 feet horizontally from a swimming pool
A. Roads, streets and other areas subject to truck traffic ................................................................................ 16 feet (NEC = 18')
B. Driveways, parking lots and alleys ................................................................................................................. 15 feet (NEC = 18') Exception - Residential driveways only where attachment height at building does not permit 15 feet of clearance:
Voltage limited to 300v to ground: Service Drops ....................................12.5 feet (NEC = 12') Drip Loops .........................................10.5 feet (NEC = 12')
Voltage limited to 150v to ground: Service Drops .......................................12 feet (NEC = 12') Drip Loops ............................................10 feet (NEC = 12')
C. Spaces and ways subject to pedestrian or restricted traffic only ............................................................... 12 feet (NEC = 12') Exception - Where attachment height at building does not permit 12 feet of clearance:
Voltage limited to 300v to ground: Service drops and drip loops........10.5 feet (NEC = 12')
Voltage limited to 150v to ground: Service drops and drip loops...........10 feet (NEC = 10')
D. Other land (such as cultivated, grazing, forest, orchard, etc.) traversed by vehicles............................... 16 feet (NEC = 18')
NOTES: -120v single phase, 120/240v single phase, and 120/208v wye 3 phase services meet the 150v to ground criteria. -120/240v open or closed delta 3 phase and 277/480v wye 3 phase services meet the 300v to ground criteria. -240/480v delta services do not meet either the 150v or 300v to ground criteria and do not qualify for the exception to the basic clearance. The clearances above are NESC minimum values for worst-case sag conditions. The attachment height at the building or customer's service pole must be sufficient to provide these clearances for all situations involved. Good judgment dictates that initial installation be made at higher values to ensure code compliance under worst-case sag conditions. For additional details and clarification regarding these and all clearances, refer to Article 23 of the NESC.

FIGURE IV-10 Intersystem Bonding Termination
NEC Article 250.94 has been revised in the 2008 Code, thereby affecting all new installations and existing installations where alterations are made. The Code has identified a new device called the Intersystem Bonding Termination or IBT. The IBT is defined as "a device that provides a means for connecting communications system(s), grounding conductor(s) and bonding conductor(s) at the service equipment or metering equipment enclosure* or at the disconnecting means for buildings or structures supplied by a feeder or branch circuit."
PREFERRED INSTALLATION

NOTES: (APPLICABLE TO FIGURES 11a and 11b)
1. Backfill adjacent to cable must be free of boards, debris, and rocks larger than 1" in diameter. 2. Aim service conduit towards designated source of Company's service. End of conduit must be at
least 24" away from any permanent structure (patio, porch, etc.) measured at right angle from the structure. Cap or plug the end of pipe. 3. The service lateral must cross the property line within the limits of the easements and should be in a direct line to meter as nearly as practical. It must have at least 5' horizontal clearance to any swimming pool. 4. Conduit bend requirement of National Electrical Code Section 346-10 "the internal diameter of the conduit will not be effectively reduced." 5. With FPL approval, slight variances in customer's downpipe size may be accepted if suitable adapter fitting is also provided by the customer. For example, 2-½"downpipe may be accepted if adapter to FPL 2" PVC conduit is provided. 6. Conductor sizes shown in tables are for triplex cables. 7. If load conductors enter from the side, entrance must be opposite side of FPL conductors. When two load conduits are used, they must be kept to one side of the can, allowing space for the line conductors. See Figure IV-9. Center position may not be used for the downpipe.
8. Schedule 80 PVC is acceptable to use, where an obstruction exists at the downpipe the customer must extend the service conduit a minimum of 24" past the obstruction. FPL will provide the 90 degree bend, if the customer provides the 90 degree bend it must be a 24" radius bend. Field Bends are NOT acceptable!

- maintain access to FPL to padmounted equipment located on the Customer's property (eight feet of clearance from the door side and three feet of clearance from other sides from items such as fences, shrubs and other obstructions are to be maintained by the Customer, as shown in Fig. V-1. FPL will help plan the Customer's installations of fences, shrubs, etc. near FPL facilities such that they will not obstruct access or cause damage to FPL's facilities. Where adequate access to FPL facilities is maintained, faster service restoration is made possible in the event of a power interruption.);
- provide suitable barriers, if specified by FPL, to protect the padmounted transformer and associated metering equipment from vehicular traffic;
- FPL requires a minimum easement of 10' for conductor, 10' x 10' for pad mount transformers and 20' x 20' for switchgear. Additional easement may be required depending on installation, field conditions and other equipment;
- clear trench route, have to grade, as specified in section II.E;
- conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes (approval from the local inspecting authority shall be provided to FPL before FPL will connect service).
FPL Will: - provide transformer specifications to the Customer; - determine if a secondary connection cabinet will be required; - provide and install the transformer, the concrete pad (if applicable), and the primary cable and conduit. If only one, single-meter Customer is served (greater than 600 amps), and no future additional meters will be connected, current transformers may be placed in padmounted transformer before the Customer's service is tapped to its secondary. This would avoid the need for a current transformer cabinet. However, the meter socket and connecting conduit shall still be installed by the Customer. The meter socket will not be mounted on the padmounted transformer. The location of the meter socket will be specified by FPL.

VI. METERING EQUIPMENT
A. Equipment Furnished and Installed by FPL
FPL provides and installs, at its expense, adequate metering instruments to measure the electric service used by the Customer. Usually, only one watt-hour meter per Customer is needed. However, FPL will furnish whatever metering, in its opinion, is required.
Self-contained socket-based meters will be furnished and installed by FPL when the service current is (100, 200 or 320 amps) and the service voltage is 120- 480 Volts. Self-contained K-Base (Bolt-in) meters will be furnished and installed by FPL for service current up to 600 amps maximum.
Instrument transformers are provided and installed by FPL when the voltage or current exceeds the rating of FPL's standard self-contained meter. Generally, current transformers will be used if the service exceeds 480 amps continuous or 600 amps maximum (320 amps for 480V, 2 wire service). Close coordination between the Customer and FPL is required to ensure these instrument transformers are installed at the most appropriate time. Current transformer design and improper selection can result in inaccurate metering.
B. Equipment Furnished, Installed, and Owned by the Customer
All meter sockets (meter enclosures) are to be provided and installed by the Customer and shall be listed on FPL's approved meter enclosure list.
For commercial, self-contained metering, FPL requires meter sockets with lever by-pass capability to eliminate service interruptions on meter changes.
All Instrument Transformer (IT) rated metering equipment enclosures are to be provided and installed by the Customer. These include IT rated meter sockets, wall mounted and weatherhead IT cabinets, and miscellaneous junction boxes/utility cabinets (Fig. VI-2 thru VI-7). Refer to FPL Specification 6.3.4 Customer Owned Instrument Transformer Cabinets, Equipment Enclosure & Junction Boxes. For padmounted primary metering, the customer has two options. FPL will provide the metering cabinet and charge the customer the cost of the cabinet, or the customer will provide a padmounted metering cabinet found in FPL's approved meter enclosure list. For primary metering in vaults, FPL will provide, install, and maintain the primary metering cabinet.
In some cases, the Customer might prefer prefabricated, combination socket and disconnect assemblies for multiple occupancy buildings (e.g. apartment or condominium buildings, shopping centers, etc.) as shown in Fig. IV-12b, or pedestal mounted equipment for mobile home parks as shown in Fig. IV-13b. Such equipment for all three phase and nonresidential installations shall contain lever by-pass, jaw tension/release socket blocks. It shall be the Customer's responsibility to obtain authorization from FPL to use this equipment for a particular installation before committing to its use. FPL maintains an approved list of equipment. Information and specifications on any such special meter equipment not on FPL's approved list shall be submitted to FPL for approval before installation. Refer to FPL Specification 6.3.1 Customer Owned Meter Enclosures for Self-Contained Watt-hour Meters and the Approved Metering Equipment Enclosure List found in Section VII in this publication.
On all self-contained, metered installations where the service voltage is 480V to ground (320 amperes or less, 2 wire), a non-automatic disconnect device shall be provided and installed by the Customer on the line side of each individual meter. For meter centers, there shall be one disconnect device on the line side of each meter. The disconnect device shall be lockable or sealable by FPL and adjacent to each meter. The Customer-owned non-automatic (no over current protection) disconnect device ampacity must meet all NEC Guidelines. A lever bypass equipped meter enclosure is required and shall be selected from the Approved Meter Equipment Enclosure List.
Meter socket enclosures and CT cabinets shall not be used as raceways for other conductors. Splices of any type are not allowed inside meter enclosures. The conductor must be continuous. Lugs designed for

multiple conductors are only allowed on the line side of the meter if the conductors must be paralleled from the FPL source (i.e. - the ampacity of a single conductor is insufficient to serve the load) and the lugs are listed for such use. These lugs shall not be used to provide a source for a second meter enclosure (i.e. two meter enclosures served from a single service) or to directly connect any customer equipment (i.e. customer generation system or surge protectors). Lugs designed for multiple conductors are allowed on the load side of the meter provided the meter can is UL approved to accept parallel lugs, the total load of the conductors does not exceed the rating of the meter or the service, the lugs have an anti-rotation ridge and are UL listed for such use.
C. Metering Configurations & Approved Equipment
FPL specifies the metering configuration (See Fig. VI-1) for each service to be metered. FPL also requires that previously approved enclosures be used for each installation. The Customer is responsible for using the correct and approved enclosures. Failure to do so may result in delay of service and additional expense. The list of approved enclosures (current at the time of this publication) is provided in Section VII. If necessary, the most current list of approved enclosures can be obtained from your local FPL representative or online at http://www.FPL.com/builder, using the Electric Service Standards link.
D. Location of Metering Equipment
The metering equipment's location will be designated by an FPL representative. The Customer will provide the meter location free of cost to FPL.
1. Sequence in Service Entrance
Where permitted by Code authorities, the metering equipment will usually precede all service equipment. Customer owned step-down transformers shall be installed on the load side of the meter. On the City of Miami Downtown Network Grid only, the service equipment should precede the meter.
2. Located Outdoors
Except where meter rooms are used, all metering installations shall be outdoors, on a vertical wall or other substantial support where the view from the ground is unobstructed. They should be readily accessible to FPL at all times so they may be read, inspected, removed or tested with a minimum of disruption of service to the Customer. The preferable height of the centerline of the meter is five feet, six inches above ground. The maximum distance shall be six feet and the minimum five feet, except meter pedestals for mobile homes may have a minimum height of 36". The meter location should not be affected by a kitchen discharge fan or other vents, or the drain from a roof gutter or air conditioner, and should be free from vibration. Sockets shall be securely attached to the building wall, pedestal, metal rack, or other permanent structure, and aligned so that the meter is both level and plumb (Fig. IV-7). Attachment to temporary structures (except for temporary service) or structures subject to early deterioration is prohibited.
When the equipment is exposed to vehicular traffic, FPL may require that the metering equipment be protected by concrete filled 4" steel pipes firmly installed in the ground, similar to those shown in Fig. V-1.
3. Located Indoors
When meters are located in a meter room, the room should have adequate lighting and contain only meters and associated equipment, and should remain unlocked so meters are readily accessible. In unusual cases where an unlocked meter room would impose a severe hardship on the Customer, arrangements can be made to furnish keys to FPL so the meters will always be accessible to meter readers. The meter room may then be locked, provided this does not violate any local code or rule.

The meter room must not be used for storage. The centerline of the meters should be five feet, six inches above the floor, but when necessary because of grouping may be a maximum of 72" and a minimum of 22".
4. Flood Elevation Standards
If local ordinances require meters to be located at or above base flood elevation, the Customer is responsible for providing and maintaining a means of ready access to the meter (for maintenance and reading by FPL personnel). See Fig. VI-9, page 16 of this section for details. Any additional costs incurred by FPL for providing special service to meet the Customer's flood insurance requirements shall be paid by the Customer.
E. Identification of Meters
If a building requires more than one meter, or if the meter is not directly within the boundaries of the premise served, FPL cannot render service until the meter socket or cabinet and the service equipment have been properly marked to show plainly the location served and the character of the service (Fig. VI-8). Multiple meter sockets shall be "rung out" by the electrical contractor and marked with the appropriate unit numbers before FPL will tap the service and set meters. This marking requirement includes IT rated meter sockets. These markings by the Customer should be plain and permanent, giving the street number to the door of the premise served or the symbol appearing on the entrance door when this door does not carry a street number. The name of the Customer will not suffice for identification. The meter sockets in multi-unit buildings shall be clearly and durably marked. Mark the exterior of all meter enclosures, the main line switch (when installed adjacent to the meter enclosure), and the inside of the meter enclosure (whenever feasible to do so).
F. Relocation or Upgrade of Metering Equipment
Whenever it is necessary to relocate or upgrade an existing metering installation, the new installation shall be made by the Customer in accordance with these standards. The customer shall be responsible for all costs associated with any work or modification to the customer's facilities which causes FPL to have to replace or modify its existing facilities. A definite schedule for the switch-over to the new meter shall be arranged in advance by the Customer so FPL can accommodate the request upon completion of the Customer's electrical work. The new service entrance shall be inspected and approved by local authorities before service can be restored. No energized service entrance shall be left unmetered, and all meters shall be re-identified as to what units they serve. Refer also to section III.I.
G. Load Profile Metering Requirements
Load Profile Meters may be required when the Customer's load exceeds 500 KWD. Solid State Data Recorders (SSDR) are no longer installed for new services. Load Profile Meters in the form of RecordersUnder-Glass (RUG) or SMART meters are the correct equipment to be installed for all new services. Metering equipment enclosures and associated cabinets are provided and installed by the Customer, typically located near the point of metering at the Customer's service entrance (Fig. VI-7). Load Profile metering only requires an SJB cabinet if two or more meters are involved in the installation.
The Customer may be required to provide two (2) 3/4" PVC or metallic conduits from the FPL telephone jack cabinet to the point of access to the telephone system. Contact FPL for details.
Both RUG and SMART meters provide one channel of Load Profile recording as well as collect data from up to (2) additional pulse-initiating meters. Two or more meters on a Load Profile installation are combined on one account. In addition to basic Load Profile functions, SMART meters provide Power Quality Monitoring and wireless communication capabilities. SMART Meters may require additional cabinets or junction boxes installed to facilitate the antennas required for wireless communications.

H. Installation of FPL's Metering Equipment in Customer's Switch Cabinets
Installation of CTs in customer's switch cabinets is discouraged and will only be approved if no other location for the CTs is practical. If FPL's equipment is installed in the Customer's switch cabinet:
1. The installation must be approved by FPL prior to the purchase of the customer's equipment. 2. For IT rated metering, the customer shall sign a Hold Harmless Agreement absolving FPL of damage to the switch cabinet during installation or damage caused by failure of the CTs. 3. The CT compartment of the customer's switch cabinet must comply with FPL's Specification for Customer Owned Instrument Transformer Cabinets, Equipment Enclosures and Junction Boxes Spec. # 6.3.4 (available upon request on an "as needed" basis). 4. The meter enclosure/meter socket must be on FPL's Approved Metering Equipment Enclosure List found in Section VII. 5. For both self-contained and IT rated metering, the line-side of the conductors in the switch cabinet must be routed through secured or sealable troughs, conduits, or in such a way to prevent unauthorized taps to be made before the meter. 6. FPL will always provide and install the CTs used in metering the customer. 7. Only FPL approved metering CTs will be used in metering applications. 8. All other rules associated to a proper meter installation (e.g. - meter rings, enclosure covers and meter seals) must be observed. 9. All meter enclosures, cabinets and panels housing FPL equipment must have provisions for sealing. 10. All self-contained meter sockets must be lever bypass type sockets.

Approved Meter Equipment Enclosure List
Revised 7/1/2020
The attached list of self-contained meter sockets and enclosures has been approved for use in the service areas served by the utilities of the Meter Equipment Group. Approval is based on the unit's compliance with the MEG specifications, particularly U.L. listing, sealing requirements, bypass characteristics, and certain operational concerns. The MEG makes no claims regarding nameplate ratings or load side attachments beyond the sealed portion of the meter socket. We recommend that all units be used as intended by the manufacturer. All additional data is supplied for informational purposes only.
NOTES:
A.
All commercial or three phase applications require a unit with an approved bypass device.
(Configuration 3, 4 or 5)
B.
All sockets are listed as their maximum socket amperage. 320/400 Amp enclosures are listed as 400 Amp
maximum and 480/600 Amp enclosures are listed as 600 Amp maximum.
C.
Aluminum enclosures are recommended in salt spray areas.
D.
Sealing rings (ring-type sockets) along with all lugs/connectors (line and load side) are considered
to be part of the meter enclosure. The customer/contractor is thereby responsible for furnishing these
items. Please contact your utility representative to determine the proper size lugs/connectors. The
sealing ring must be a captive-screw type equivalent to ABB #01L0028G02, Milbank MR-4/A3068,
Landis & Gyr #9738-8002, or Ekstrom 10-9090.
E.

VIII. GROUNDING
DATE

SECTION: PAGE
VIII: 1 of 2
VIII. GROUNDING
A. General
The Customer's service entrance installation shall satisfy all grounding requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any applicable building codes, and is subject to acceptance of local inspecting authorities.
FPL's service drop or service lateral includes a grounded conductor. This conductor is grounded at the source transformer location and generally interconnected with other grounded conductors. This grounded conductor will normally be attached to a grounding connector in the meter socket and also to one in the service equipment and to the neutral or ground bus in the service equipment. When meter sockets with Customer owned isolated neutrals are required by local codes, a separate Customer owned grounding conductor shall be run by the Customer from the service equipment to the grounding connection of the meter socket.
The NEC allows several methods of supplying a grounding electrode. A ground rod is not the only means of supplying the grounding electrode. A brief discussion of the NEC requirements is provided in the following notes and is not intended to be all-inclusive. The NEC and your local inspecting authorities should be consulted for additional details and for those that may have changed since the time of this printing. FPL accepts any method which satisfies the NEC and the local inspecting authorities.
Local inspecting authorities may have more stringent requirements than the NEC. For example, some inspecting authorities require the use of a concrete-encased electrode as described in Article 250.52. This electrode would consist of at least 20 continuous feet of one or more bare or zinc galvanized or other electrically conductive coated steel reinforcing bars or rods of not less than 1/2 inch in diameter or of at least 20 feet of bare copper conductor not smaller than No. 4. The electrode would be encased in at least 2 inches of concrete and located within or near the bottom of a concrete foundation or footing that is in direct contact with the earth (no vapor barrier).
B. Notes on Grounding Customer's Service Entrance:
1. FPL's point of delivery includes a grounded conductor. The point of delivery is normally at the weatherhead (in the case of an FPL overhead service lateral), the meter can (in the case of an FPL underground service lateral), a padmounted transformer, or a vault.
2. The customer shall connect this FPL grounded conductor to the service equipment by extending a customer-owned grounded conductor along with the other conductors of the customer's service entrance which attach to FPL at the point of delivery. This grounded conductor shall be extended even though it may not be required as a circuit conductor by the NEC and shall be sized according to NEC Article 250.
3. The customer's service entrance wiring shall be grounded as required by the NEC, Article 250, and any local code in effect.
4. The grounded wiring system to each premise shall have a grounding electrode conductor connected to a grounding electrode meeting the requirements of the NEC. This grounded conductor shall be connected to the grounded service conductor at any accessible point on the load side of the service drop or lateral to and including the service equipment terminals provided to connect the grounded service conductor.
5. The equipment grounding conductor and the service equipment enclosure shall be connected to the grounded conductor of the system within the service equipment or within the service conductor enclosure.

6. The grounding electrode system is discussed in Article 250.52 of the NEC. Article 250.52 states that, if available on the premises, each of the following along with any "derived" electrodes shall be bonded together to form the grounding electrode system: (1) metal underground water pipe 10 feet or more in length, (2) metal frame of building in direct contact with the earth for 10 or more feet or with concrete encased hold down bolts that are connected to a concrete encased electrode, (3) concrete encased electrode at least 20 feet in length, (4) ground ring at least 20 feet in length, (5) rod and pipe electrodes at least 8 feet in length, (6) other listed electrodes, or (7) plate electrodes. The rod or pipe electrode may be a 5/8" diameter stainless steel, copper or zinc coated steel rod, or a smaller diameter listed rod, or a pipe of at least 3/4" diameter (galvanized or coated if steel), all driven 8' into the earth. A plate electrode shall expose not less than two square feet of surface to exterior soil. Iron or steel plates shall be at least 1/4 inch thick and nonferrous plates shall be at least .06 inch thick. A single rod, pipe, or plate electrode having a resistance to earth of more than 25 ohms shall have a supplemental electrode installed no closer than 6 feet away. Aluminum electrodes ARE NOT PERMITTED. A metal underground gas piping system SHALL NOT BE USED AS A GROUNDING ELECTRODE.
7. For additional grounding information, see the National Electrical Code, Article 250, and local building codes in effect in the area. If local building code requirements exceed those of the National Electrical Code, installations shall comply with the local codes.

IX. MOTORS, CONTROLLERS AND AIR CONDITIONERS
A. General
Before ordering or installing any large polyphase or single phase motor, FPL should be consulted to determine the character and adequacy of the available service and the allowable starting current at the premises to be served. This information should be passed on to the suppliers of the proposed motorized equipment. This will assist suppliers in providing equipment and protective devices to obtain satisfactory operation at minimum cost, considering both initial installation and future maintenance.
Motors less than 7.5 horse power can be served with single phase service, unless three phase service is already being supplied. Motors 7.5 to 20 horsepower require open delta service (or wye if already being supplied), and motors larger than 20 horsepower require wye service. Availability of three phase service should be discussed in advance with FPL.
Single phase motors larger than one-half horsepower fed from 120/240 volt circuits should be connected for 240 volt operation. Smaller motors may be connected for 240 volts, where practicable, at the Customer's option.
The current required to start a motor is much greater than that required to operate it at full load after it has reached rated speed. If not controlled, this starting current may cause severe voltage fluctuations, not only on the wiring of the Customer using the motor, but also on other Customers' wiring. The more frequently the motor is started, the more objectionable these voltage fluctuations become.
The National Electrical Code, in Article 430, provides a table (430.7(B)) which classifies motors by their "locked-rotor" (starting) input requirements. A code letter is assigned to each requirement bracket. The brackets are given in "kilovolt-amperes" per horsepower which can be easily converted to amperes for a given motor. The starting current increases as the code letter increases. The appropriate letter is stamped on the motor nameplate.
Using this information, FPL has prepared Table IX-1 for single phase motors, five horsepower and below. This table lists code letters and starting currents which will be acceptable at most locations on FPL's system. The value given is for one motor which does not start more than four times per hour. Table IX-2 provides similar data for single phase air conditioners, but is based on the unit's rated output rather than horsepower.
B. FPL Approval of Starting Means for Large Motors
For motors larger than those listed in Table IX-1, or which start more frequently, the Customer may be required to provide reduced voltage or incremental starting equipment, to reduce each step of starting current to the value shown. FPL shall be consulted and will advise the Customer of its requirements.
In the case of three phase motors, because of the variety of service conditions and the large number of motor sizes available, FPL shall be contacted in each case to determine if reduced voltage or incremental starting will be required. If two or more motors are started simultaneously, the starting limitations apply to the total current of the group.

C. Motor Protection and Power Factor
It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that all motor circuits include protection which at a minimum meets the National Electrical Code and any applicable local codes. Note: such protection is designed to protect personnel from electrical and fire hazard, it is not intended to protect the motor from damage. For this reason, FPL recommends that the customer add the following to motor circuits to reduce the risk of equipment damage.
The use of automatic time delay circuit breakers or time delay fuses is strongly recommended when protecting motors against damage from excessive currents. The time delay feature will eliminate unnecessary operation of the breakers or blowing of fuses during motor starting or temporary overloads.
Under Voltage Protection - A low-voltage release is designed to disconnect the motor automatically and return the starting device to the "off" position upon partial or total failure of the supply voltage. It is used, where applicable, for motors that cannot safely be subjected to full voltage at starting, or where low voltage would result in injury or damage to equipment. This release should be of the time delay type, capable of adjustment to a maximum of at least two seconds and set at the lowest value suitable for proper protection. FPL will be glad to advise the Customer on the proper interval for coordination with FPL's circuit breakers. This will prevent unnecessary disconnection of the motor on momentary voltage fluctuations or loss of voltage.
Single Phase Protection - When installing three phase motors, the Customer should consider the possibility of the loss of one phase, either in his own installation or in FPL's supply lines. This "single phasing" may happen regardless of the precautions taken to avoid it, and FPL therefore strongly recommends that devices be installed to protect the equipment against the damage that may result.
Phase Reversal Protection - Three phase motors for applications to elevators, cranes, hoists, well pumps or other installations where reversal of rotation might cause damage to equipment or constitute a hazard to personnel should have phase rotation protection.
Reclose Protection - Motors which cannot be safely subjected to full voltage starting, or processes which may create a safety hazard upon an uncontrolled re-start, should be designed to require manual or time delay re-start upon the interruption of the supply voltage.
Phase Imbalance Protection Imbalanced three phase voltages may cause unequal phase currents. Heating caused by the imbalanced currents can shorten the life of a motor. Because of this, the American National Standards Institute, ANSI C84.1-2006 Standard for Power Systems and Equipment, recommends that "electric supply systems be designed and operated to limit the maximum voltage imbalance to 3 percent when measured at the electric-utility revenue meter under no-load conditions".
ANSI uses the formula:
Percent Imbalance = Maximum deviation from the average divided by the average
To protect motors from damage due to amperage imbalance, imbalance protection should be installed at the motor to limit full load operation if the voltage imbalance exceeds 3%, or the amperage imbalance exceeds 30%.
Note: Some brands of protection on the market for chillers and other motors use the formula:
Percent Imbalance = (Highest phase lowest phase) divided by the average

DATE

SECTION: PAGE
IX: 4 of 5
Devices using this formula should be set at 4% voltage and 40% amperage to provide the same protection as the ANSI formula.
Under voltage, single phase, phase reversal and imbalance protection are all available through the installation of an electronic phase loss protector in the motor control circuit. Such protective devices are supplied and installed by the Customer. FPL is not responsible for damage to motors from power abnormalities.
Surge protection should also be considered for installation at the motor breaker panel. Surge protection can help reduce damage to a motor's windings from external spikes, as well as reduce damage to customer equipment from power spikes generated by large motors starting and stopping.
Power Factor
Power factor is a calculation representing the relationship of "real" power (kw) which performs useful work in turning a motor, to "apparent" power (kva) which magnetizes motor and transformer coils. Motor loads frequently adversely affect the power factor of a circuit, usually from oversized or lightly loaded motors. Certain other types of loads can reduce power factor. A low power factor also reduces the capacity of circuit conductors to deliver "real" power and can increase wiring costs as well as electric demand on the utility system. FPL reserves the right to adjust meter reading kw for billing where power factor is less than 85%.
Capacitors are sometimes connected on the load side of a motor controller to improve the power factor of the circuit. When this is done, the total kvar connected should not exceed the value required to raise the power factor of the motor to unity when it is running unloaded.
D. Air Conditioners that require excessive starting currents
A number of single phase 240 volt air conditioning units currently on the market require starting currents that exceed the 40 amps per ton allowed by FPL design practices. This will cause voltage flicker (momentary voltage dips) to exceed the limits to which FPL's distribution systems have been designed, and in many cases, flicker conditions quite objectionable to homeowners having these units.
Air conditioning units causing the majority of complaints seem to be those with the "scroll" type compressor, that are 3 tons or greater. Unlike their predecessor reciprocating compressor types, these systems do not require a starting capacitor system to start, so the manufacturers are no longer installing them. Without starting capacitors, the starting currents drawn on the electrical distribution system and "seen" by the customer as flicker have increased dramatically.
We strongly suggest you verify, before purchasing, that the units you obtain require starting currents of 40 amps or less per ton. If these limits are exceeded, "hard start kits" should be installed. If further reductions are necessary, "delay start" mechanisms might be considered so all the units components (compressor, air handler, condensing fan) do not start simultaneously. Installing this equipment at the factory can be done for minimal cost (far less than retrofits in the field) and will prevent customer complaints. If FPL has to oversize new facilities or upgrade existing facilities due to starting currents exceeding the 40 amp per ton threshold, CIAC charges would apply.
Air conditioning manufacturers do not routinely publish starting current values. For units without

X. ELECTRICAL DISTURBANCES
Electric welders, furnaces, electric draglines, electric dredges, large, frequently started, motorized equipment, variable speed drives, SCR converters, and tankless water heaters are examples of equipment that have operating characteristics which may require rapidly fluctuating amounts of current. If the device is large, significant voltage fluctuations may result, even on a system which is adequate for normal service. These voltage fluctuations may affect the operation and life of other equipment in the customer's facility as well as the equipment of other customers in the vicinity.
Section IX covers FPL's requirements when frequent starting of large motors is involved.
When service is required for any of the other devices mentioned, or similar devices, FPL shall be consulted. It may be found that the device cannot be served at the specific location unless special facilities and control equipment are provided both by FPL and the Customer.
The cost for any additional or upgraded facilities that are required to be installed by FPL in order to serve these devices will be borne by the customer as CIAC. If the adverse effects cannot be mitigated by the installation of additional or upgraded facilities, or if these devices cause objectionable flicker to other customers' service, FPL may require the device to be disconnected from the electrical system.
There are other devices, such as silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) devices, or any device which suddenly interrupts current at other than a natural zero point, which may cause high frequency voltage oscillations or transients in the circuit. This may be detrimental to the Customer's service or to that of an adjacent Customer. It may be necessary for the Customer to install filters or other corrective devices if he wishes to continue the use of such equipment.
If the Customer uses carrier current or any other system that superimposes a voltage with a frequency other than the normal 60 hertz voltage on his wiring, he shall provide filters or other equipment, as required, to prevent it from appearing on FPL's distribution system.

Radio and television antennas, their lead-in cables, guy wires and metallic supports shall be kept well clear of electric powerlines. They should be installed in accordance with Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, and any applicable local building code.
The shortest distance between the power conductor and the antenna mast should exceed the height of the antenna mast from the ground.
The antenna or lead in conductors should not cross over electric light or power circuits. These items should be kept well away from such circuits, but where this is impossible, they shall have a clearance of at least 2 feet to circuits of less than 250 volts between conductors. Where practicable, these items should not cross under electric light and power circuits or be closer than 10 feet to power circuits of more than 250 volts between conductors.
Most contacts between antennas and power lines occur either during antenna installation or subsequent maintenance. The homeowner installing an antenna should be sure it is well away from any exposed electric wires. He should be certain that neither the antenna and mast nor the lead-in nor guy wires could possibly contact the power wires if the installer loses control of any component of the assembly.

XII. STREET & OUTDOOR SECURITY LIGHTING
A. FPL Owned - Street Lighting
The application of FPL's Street Lighting Rate schedule (SL-1), as defined in FPL Tariff Sheet 8.715, is for the lighting of streets and roadways, whether public or private, which are thoroughfares for normal flow of vehicular traffic. Lighting for other applications such as: municipally and privately owned parking lots; parks and recreational areas; or any other area not expressly defined above, is not permitted under this schedule. Fixtures installed under SL-1 are High Pressure Sodium Vapor (HPSV).
FPL's LED Lighting Schedule (LT-1), as defined in FPL Tariff Sheet 8.735, is for the purpose of lighting streets whether public or private, roadways, and common areas, other than individual residential locations. This includes but is not limited to parking lots, homeowners' association common areas, or parks. Fixtures installed under LT-1 are Light Emitting Diode (LED).
If FPL is requested to install, own, and maintain its street lighting facilities, service is subject to the terms and conditions of rate schedule SL-1 or LT-1 together with FPL's Street Lighting Agreement, which must be properly executed prior to the installation or modification of any FPL owned street lighting facility.
For FPL owned street lighting facilities, A CIAC will be required from the customer for:
a. the estimated differential cost between employing rapid construction techniques in trenching, backfilling, and pole installation work where no obstructions exist, and the added cost to overcome obstructions such as sprinkler systems, paved surfaces (such as sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and roadways), landscaping, sodding and other obstructions encountered along the Street Lighting System installation route, including repair and replacement. As an alternative to paying FPL for these added costs, the customer can elect to perform the trenching work and restoration himself. If that work involves trench (and installation of conduit provided by FPL), the Customer will be reimbursed by FPL for the value, as determined by FPL, of that trench (based on rapid construction, no obstructions) and conduit installation, up to the amount of CIAC that is due.
b. the installation cost of any new overhead distribution facilities and/or the cost of alterations to existing distribution facilities which are required in order to serve the Street Lighting System less four (4) times the additional annual non-fuel energy revenue generated by the installation or alteration of the Street Lighting System, plus where underground facilities are installed, the differential installation cost between underground and overhead distribution facilities.
These costs, if any, shall be paid by the Customer before the commencement of any construction work by FPL. The Customer shall also pay any additional costs associated with design modifications requested after the original estimate has been made. FPL does not design to, or guarantee minimum street lighting levels based on any IES standards.
If FPL street lighting facilities installed under rate schedule SL-1 must be removed for any reason (Customer request, relocation, upgrade, modification, termination or breach of the Agreement, etc.) the Customer shall pay FPL an amount equal to the original installed cost of the removed facilities less any salvage value and depreciation (based on current depreciation rates as approved by the Florida Public Service Commission) plus removal cost.
If FPL lighting facilities installed under rate schedule LT-1 must be removed for any reason (Customer request, relocation, upgrade, modification, termination or breach of the Agreement, etc.) the Customer shall pay FPL the remaining fixture, pole, and conductor charges for the period remaining on the currently active term of service plus the cost to remove the facilities.
Customers converting FPL owned HPSV or MH fixtures (SL-1) to FPL owned LED fixtures (LT-1) pay a monthly "Conversion Recovery Fee" to cover the cost of the conversion.

In the event of relocated facilities under either rate schedule, all relocation costs will be borne by the Customer.
If these terms and conditions are unacceptable to the Customer, or if the poles and fixtures offered by FPL are not those desired by the Customer, the Customer may wish to consider installing his own street lighting facilities.
B. Customer-owned Street Lighting
For Customer owned street lighting systems, where the street light facilities are installed, owned, and maintained by the Customer, FPL will specify the service location, and require the customer to install a single phase, 60 Hertz metered service in accordance with Rate Schedule (SL-1M), as defined in FPL Tariff Sheet 8.718.
Refer to the ESS Section IV Service and Meter Connections to connect service.
C. Customer-owned Traffic Lighting
For Customer owned traffic lighting systems, including traffic signal facilities, pedestiran crossings, school flashing zones, and emergency crossings, where the facilities are installed, owned, and maintained by the Customer, FPL will specify the service location, and require the customer to install a single phase, 60 Hertz metered service in accordance with Rate Schedule (SL-2M), as defined in FPL Tariff Sheet 8.731. .

D. Outdoor Security Lighting
The application of FPL's Outdoor Lighting Rate Schedule (OL-1), as defined in FPL Tariff Sheet 8.725, is for year-round outdoor security lighting of yards, walkways, and other areas on property owned by individuals or organizations. This rate schedule is not available for Street Lighting applications (public or private roadway lighting). Lights to be served hereunder shall be at locations which are easily and economically accessible to FPL vehicles, equipment and personnel for construction and maintenance.
It is intended that FPL-owned security lights be installed on existing FPL-owned facilities (distribution poles with secondary conductor), or "short extensions." Short extensions are limited to the installation of a single pole and span of secondary per light. There is no defined limit to the number of outdoor security lights available to one customer.
Where more extensive lighting systems are required, such as parking lots or other "engineered lighting level" applications where more than a single pole extension, or more than FPL lights installed on existing distribution facilities is required, the Customer can elect to provide the fixtures, supports & circuit wiring. FPL will specify the service location, connect to the customer's system, and provide energy-only services, if applicable, in accordance with rate schedule OL-1. If the Customer requests, or, if the energy provided through the Customer's metered service under a GS Rate is to the Customer's advantage, the service for the lighting can be provided under the appropriate GS rate schedule.
The number of outdoor lights is limited to four (4) lights per pole on those poles entirely devoted to the support of outdoor lights, and two lights on all other poles. These limits are to be reduced wherever FPL engineering opinion or construction forces recommend.
Luminaires installed on poles along an adjacent roadway must be faced towards private property. The bracket length for conventional luminaires is 2-1/2 feet. Longer brackets will be considered only at locations accessible to FPL equipment and personnel.

Standard installations requiring installation of only outdoor lighting facilities covered by a monthly charge (e.g. luminaire, bracket, single span of secondary per light, pole, down guy, UG conductors, etc.) generally require no CIAC.
However, when installation or modification of distribution facilities is required for which there is no monthly charge (e.g. transformers, additional spans of secondary beyond the allowed single span per light, change in height of existing poles, installation of mid-span poles, etc.) a CIAC will be required equal to the total estimated cost of those facilities not included in the schedule of monthly charges. EAR is not a factor in determining this CIAC amount.
For outdoor lighting applications requiring UG conductors, the customer must provide the trench, backfill, and restoration. If mutually agreed by the customer and FPL, FPL will provide the trench, but at the customer's expense.
E. Disconnect Devices for Customer-Owned Street / Outdoor Security Lighting
When a customer-owned street/outdoor lighting circuit (a circuit being one or more lights served from one service point) is to be installed under the street/outdoor lighting rate schedules (SL-1, OL-1), the customer shall install a fused disconnect device for each circuit. Installation of the disconnect device is required whether the circuit is individual or group control. The disconnect device is required to isolate the customer's circuit during maintenance, isolate FPL's system from malfunctioning customer equipment, and comply with any applicable building code requirements.
Location of Customer's Disconnect Device:
a. Overhead FPL Service Point:
Customer disconnect device can be mounted on the customer's street/outdoor light pole provided that the distance to FPL's overhead service point allows for the provision of an FPL overhead service and that the attachment height allows for proper clearances.
Customer's disconnect device can be installed in customer handhole adjacent to the utility pole. FPL will terminate its underground cable (from the overhead source) in the customer handhole if this arrangement is acceptable to the customer. Otherwise, FPL will provide its own handhole at the base of the pole and terminate the customer's cable therein. In either case, a Contribution In Aid of Construction (CIAC) may be required.
Customer's disconnect device can be installed on a pedestal adjacent to the pole. FPL will extend its underground cable (from the overhead source) to its handhole adjacent to the utility pole and terminate the customer's cable therein. CIAC may be required. If sufficient attachment height is made available by the customer, FPL may provide an overhead service.
No customer equipment is to be installed on the utility-owned pole. Customer-owned secondary risers will be allowed only for those governmental agencies that have executed a Public Body Joint Use Pole Agreement.
b. Underground FPL Service Point:
Customer disconnect device shall be installed adjacent to FPL's service point on customer's pedestal or in customer's handhole. FPL will terminate the customer's cable at the service point.
Both the fusing and the cable from the FPL service point to customer's disconnect device shall BE installed by the customer in accordance with applicable building codes.
Customer-owned disconnect devices are not to be installed to control FPL-owned street lighting facilities.

F. Group Control Photoelectric Relays a. Overhead FPL Service Point:
The customer shall install, own, and maintain the photoelectric relay. For these installations, FPL will continue to provide transformation, as necessary, and connect the electric service as before. The remainder of the equipment (together with the photoelectric relay) will be installed and maintained by the customer, but cannot be installed on the utility pole.
This information and wiring diagram should appear on the preliminary streetlight plans for each project to allow FPL the opportunity to review and provide comments prior to final acceptance for each project.
Should the customer owned photoelectric relay fail for any reason, FPL asks the customer's cooperation in making timely repairs to avoid the 24 hour burning of street lights. Should timely repairs not be made, FPL may exercise its option of billing the maintaining agency for the increased energy consumption until the repairs are made.
b. FPL Underground Service Point:
The customer shall install, own, and maintain the photoelectric relay to group controlled customer owned streetlight circuits fed from handholes or padmounted transformers.
Should the customer owned photoelectric relay fail for any reason, FPL asks the customer's cooperation in making timely repairs to avoid the 24 hour burning of street lights. Should timely repairs not be made, FPL may exercise its option of billing the maintaining agency for the increased energy consumption until
the repairs are made.

XIV. Safety Six
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, workplace accidents kill more than 5,000 U.S. workers every year. We urge our customers and employees to practice safe work habits to prevent serious injuries and save lives! Always follow the Safety 6 rules to prevent the most common mistakes around power lines.
Rule 1: Work a safe distance
This is the most important rule: Work at a safe distance from all power lines. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires that equipment be kept at least 10 feet away from power lines from 0-50 kV. For higher voltage lines, the required distance is even greater (see table below). When uncertain of a power line's voltage, stay 20 feet away for voltages up 350 kV and 50 feet away for voltages greater than 350 kV. Cranes and derricks are required to take additional steps before beginning work (see OSHA Standards 29 CFR 1926.1400 effective Nov. 8, 2010). Call FPL at 1-800-375-4375 or your local utility to identify the voltage of power lines before you begin working.
If you witness a violation of the rules, stay away from the equipment and warn the operator to move away from the power line.
FPL Power Line Voltages
0 50 kV Over 50 kV to 200 kV Over 200 kV to 350 kV Over 350 kV to 500 kV Over 500 kV to 750 kV
Rule 2: Stay calm - stay away
OSHA Mimimum Approach Distance
(OSHA 1926.1408 Table A)
10 feet 15 feet 20 feet 25 feet 35 feet
When operating a piece of equipment You should that contacts a power line
You are not in danger from a fire or from being struck by a power line
You are in danger and must get off the equipment
Stay where you are. Move the equipment away from the power line, if
possible. Warn others not to approach the equipment. Call FPL at 1-800-4OUTAGE (1-800-468-8243) or call
911 to contact FPL or your local utility for assistance.
Jump as far away from the equipment as you can and land with both feet together. (No part of your body should touch the equipment and the ground at the same time.)
Hop or shuffle away from the equipment with your feet together to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Once clear, do not return to the equipment until FPL declares it safe.
Call 911 and/or call FPL at 1-800-4OUTAGE (1-800468-8243) or your local utility.

You should
Stay away. Warn fellow workers to stay away. Call 911 and/or call FPL at 1-800-4OUTAGE (1-800-
468-8243) or your local utility.
Rule 3: Ladders and lines don't mix
Before you begin working, look up and note the location of power lines. You can be seriously hurt or killed if the object you are holding or standing on contacts a power line.
Before raising or extending any equipment capable of reaching a power line, check in all directions for power lines.
Keep a safe distance from any power line, measuring from the end or tip of your own extended reach and including the end or tip of any object you are holding or carrying. Remember to allow even greater distance for safety near higher voltage lines such as transmission lines.
Even nonmetallic ladders and equipment can conduct electricity.
Rule 4: Call before you dig
One easy call to 811 starts the process of getting underground utility lines marked for free. Utility company locators will mark the approximate location and type of underground utilities
with paint and flags. To avoid costly repairs and construction delays, be sure to contact Sunshine State One
Call of Florida at 811 or 1-800-432-4770 at least two full business days in advance of any excavation work.* Visit www.CallSunshine.com for more information.
* In accordance with the Underground Facility Damage Prevention and Safety Act, Chapter 556, Florida Statutes
Rule 5: Look up and live
Look up when working around overhead power lines, especially when trees are nearby. Branches can hide power lines from view.
Look up for power lines when using tools of any kind. Even nonmetallic tools can conduct electricity.
Cranes and derricks that approach working distance within 20 feet of power lines with operating voltages up to 350 kV, or within 50 feet of power lines with voltages greater than 350 kV, are mandated to take "encroachment prevention measures." See OSHA Standards 29 CFR 1926.1400.
Look up for power lines when putting up scaffolding, framing a building, painting, pruning trees or picking fruit.
Before moving a tree under a power line, look up and determine the maximum height to lift the tree. Keep a safe distance away as required by OSHA. Trees can conduct electricity.
Look up for power lines when working on top of buildings.

FPL calls your attention to the fact that there may be energized, high voltage electric lines, both overhead and underground, located in the area of this project. It is imperative that you visually survey the area and that you also take the necessary steps to identify all overhead and underground facilities prior to commencing construction to determine whether the construction of any proposed improvements will bring any person, tool, machinery, equipment or object closer to FPL's power lines than the OSHA-prescribed limits. If it will, you must either re-design your project to allow it to be built safely given the pre-existing power line location, or make arrangements with FPL to either deenergize and ground our facilities, or relocate them, possibly at your expense. You must do this before allowing any construction near the power lines. It is impossible for FPL to know or predict whether or not the contractors or subcontractors, and their employees, will operate or use cranes, digging apparatus or other mobile equipment, or handle materials or tools, in dangerous proximity to such power lines during the course of construction, and, if so, when and where. Therefore, if it becomes necessary for any contractor or subcontractor, or their employees, to operate or handle cranes, digging apparatus, draglines, mobile equipment, or any other equipment, tools or materials in such a manner that they might come closer to underground or overhead power lines than is permitted by local, state or federal regulations, you and any such contractor or subcontractor must notify FPL in writing of such planned operation prior to the commencement thereof and make all necessary arrangements with FPL in order to carry out the work in a safe manner. Any work in the vicinity of the electric lines should be suspended until these arrangements are finalized and implemented.
The National Electrical Safety Code ("NESC") prescribes minimum clearances that must be maintained. If you build your structure so that those clearances cannot be maintained, you may be required to compensate FPL for the relocation of our facilities to comply with those clearances. As such, you should contact FPL prior to commencing construction near pre-existing underground or overhead power lines to make sure that your proposed improvement does not impinge upon the NESC clearances.
It is your responsibility and the responsibility of your contractors and subcontractors on this project to diligently fulfill the following obligations:
1.
Make absolutely certain that all persons responsible for operating or handling cranes, digging apparatus, draglines, mobile equipment or any equipment, tool, or material capable
of contacting a power line, are in compliance with all applicable state and federal regulations, including but not limited to U.S. Department of Labor OSHA Regulations, while performing their
work.
2.
Make sure that all cranes, digging apparatus, draglines, mobile equipment, and all other equipment or materials capable of contacting a
power line have attached to them any warning signs required by U.S. Department of Labor OSHA Regulations.
3.
