PPL EU's Right To Refuse Service

PPL EU’s electric service tariff provides that PPL EU may refuse to connect a service or may disconnect an existing service when in PPL EU’s judgment or when PPL EU has received notice that the customer's installation is not in proper operating condition or does not conform with these rules or the customer's equipment or use thereof impairs PPL EU’s equipment or the service to other customers.

Inspection Requirements

Rule 19 of REMSI describes PPL EU’s inspection requirements.

Choice of Agency or Inspector

PPL EU does not recommend one electrical inspection agency or electrical inspector in preference to another. The choice of agency or inspector is the responsibility of the customer or the customer’s electrical contractor.

Certification Requirements

Effective May 10, 2004, PPL EU will accept electrical inspection cut-in cards only from inspectors who are registered or certified by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry and whose names appear on the Listing of Certified and Registered Code Officials Web page click on Certification List (updated daily).

Accepted Signed Cut-in Cards

PPL EU accepts signed cut-in cards from an inspector with the understanding that the inspector is responsibly enforcing the standards of the Uniform Construction Code, NEC, REMSI and any other applicable code. Continued acceptance of an inspector’s signed cut-in cards is contingent upon the inspector maintaining satisfactory performance.

An inspector whose signed cut-in cards are accepted by PPL EU may inspect in any region or area of PPL EU.

Multiple Inspections

When PPL EU receives a cut-in card specifying NEC violations at a premises, PPL EU requires the customer or customer's contractor to:

• correct the situation, and

• secure the services of the same inspector who issued the violation card to re-inspect the corrected facilities.

Re-inspection by another inspector is acceptable to PPL EU only if the original inspector is unavailable due to illness or other unforeseen circumstances, and the customer requires immediate service.
