Notes:
1. Where installation involves transformer (single phase) or transformer bank (three phase) and a one, two , three, or four pole tap, the charge for the transformer(s) and metering should be added to the charge for the line to determine the total non-recoverable cost to be charged to the customer.
2. Where line extensions in excess of four poles and transformer installations in excess of 500 KVA are required, estimates will be secured from the Electric Department before non-recoverable costs are quoted to the customer.
3. All line estimates are based on #2 aluminum conductor.
4. No money for clearing right-of-way is included in line estimates.  This should be added to costs if applicable.
5. Estimates include money for surveying and engineering expense.
6. Charges in the aforementioned schedule include one service drop.
