Commonwealth Edison Company TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued) ILL.C.C. No. 4
Where any of the Customer's utilization equipment has characteristics which, in the Company's
judgment, may cause interference with service to other customers or result in operation at a low
power factor, the Customer shall, at the request of the Company, provide suitable facilities to
preclude such interference or improve such power factor, or both, as the case may be. Otherwise,
the Company shall have the right to provide, at the expense of the Customer, the facilities
necessary to preclude such condition or conditions.
Where for any reas6n facilities in excess of a standard installation are provided by the Company,
such facilities shall be installed, maintained and operated in accordance with the provisions of
the Company's Optional or Non-Standard Facilities rider and Meter Lease rider.
Metering.
The Company will furnish and maintain all metering equipment necessary for measuring and billing the
electricity supplied. The Customer shall provide a suitable place for the metering equipment which
shall be readily accessible to employes of the Company for reading, testing, inspecting or
exchanging such metering equipment.
Each separate point of delivery required by the Customer will be metered separately and billed as a
separate account unless otherwise provided in the rate.
Where the Company, prior to July 13, 1970, permitted more than one family living quarters in the
former Central Illinois Electric and Gas Co. territory to be served through one meter, the
kilowatthours specified in each block of Rate 1 shall be multiplied by the number of separate
family living quarters so served when computing the bill. Monthly minimum and customer charges
shall also be multiplied by the number of separate living quarters so served when computing the
bill.
Light Bulb Service.
Unless specifically provided for in the rate, light bulb service will not be provided by the
Company.
Testing of Utilization Equipment.
If any customer served under a rate which includes a demand charge has an abrupt increase in demand
occasioned by the testing of utilization equipment for use on his premises, the increased demand so
occasioned shall not be taken into account in the determination of the Customer's maximum demand;
provided that the Customer shall have arranged with the Company, in writing at least five days in
advance, for the making of the test at a time approved by the Company. Such testing will not be
approved during peak periods (as defined in Rate 6L of this schedule) from June 1 through
September 30.
Company's Property and Protection Thereof.
All meters, transformers, poles, structures and other facilities placed on the Customer's premises by
the Company for the purpose of rendering electric service to said premises, unless otherwise
expressly provided, shall be and remain the property of the Company, the the Customer shall
exercise reasonable care to protect such property from loss or damage. When there is a change in
the Customer's operation or construction which, in the judgment of the Company, makes the

Commonwealth Edison Company TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued) ILL.C.C. No. 4
In cases where the Customer installs, owns and maintains his own metering equipment in parallel with
the Company's metering equipment for purposes of demand control or other reasons, the sole basis for
billing shall be the demands and energy registered on the Company's meters.
Payment of Bills.
Bills issued by the Company for electric service are payable without the addition of late payment
charges if payment is received by the Company on or before the due dates shown on the bills. If
any amount due is not received by the Company by the due date, a late payment charge will be added
to the amount due in accordance with the following provisions:
Residential Customers.
Bills are due within 21 days after the billing date and the late payment charge is applicable
thereafter. The Company will, however, extend a due date in accordance with Illinois Commerce
Commission General Order 172 by up to ten days in those circumstances and for those customers
specified in that General Order.
Customers Served Under Rider 15 and Other Governmental Agencies.
Bills are due within 45 days after the billing date and the late payment charge is applicable
thereafter.
Customers Having Five or More Premises.
Customers regularly operating five or more premises may, upon written request to the Company, have a

Commonwealth Edison Company TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued) ILL.C.C. No. 4
Temporary or Seasonal Service.
When the Customer will make only temporary use of electric service, the Customer shall pay to the
Company in advance the estimated cost to the Company, including taxes, if any, of furnishing,
installing and removing such facilities as the Company may provide for such temporary service.
When service to a Customer is disconnected and reconnected on a seasonal basis at the Customer's
request, reconnection of the same service for that Customer shall be provided upon payment of an
amount equal to the Monthly Customer Charges applicable to the period during which service was
disconnected, plus the estimated cost to disconnect or remove and reconnect or reinstall Company
facilities. The Company may elect to use, in lieu of detailed estimates of costs, flat charges, as
in effect from time to time, for work performed hereunder. Such flat charges shall not be higher
that the Company's unit costs for such work.
Temporary or seasonal service is not available for service to installations requiring the application
of Rider 4 or Rider 5.
Company-owned Residential Service Connections.
Certain residential customers have been provided with Company-owned service connections which include
Company-owned poles on private property under previously applicable rules of service. The Company
shall continue to own and maintain such service connections required to provide service to the
Customers except that (a) the Company will, at the Customer's request, transfer such service
connection (except the portion thereof constituting a standard service connection) to the Customer
in good and serviceable condition, or (b) the Customer shall accept full ownership of such service
connection (except the portion thereof constituting a standard service connection) and shall
thereafter maintain it if, at his request, the Company is required to (1) relocate such service
connection, (2) increase the capacity of such service connection, or (3) rebuild all or a part of
such service connection to provide an additional phase or phases. The Company shall perform the
required modifications of the service connection at its expense and shall transfer such modified
service connection to the Customer in good and serviceable condition.

The Company will not furnish electricity for resale except as provided under Rider 12.
Assignment.
The benefits and obligations of the contract for service shall inure to and be binding upon the
successors and assigns of the original parties thereto, respectively, for the full term thereof;
provided, that no assignment shall be made by the Customer without first obtaining the Company's
written consent and provided, further, that the successor shall execute and deliver to the Company
an agreement assuming and agreeing to be bound by the original contract.
Agents Cannot Modify Agreement.
No agent has the authority to amend, modify, or alter the contract for service, or waive any of its
conditions, or to bind the Company by making any promises or representations not contained therein.
Fire or Other Casualty - Customer's Premises.
In case a fire or other casualty shall occur on the premises, rendering them unfit for the purposes
of the Customer's business, the Customer's contract shall thereupon be suspended until such time as
the premises shall have been reconstructed and reoccupied by the Customer for the purposes of his
business.
Residential Conservation Service Plan Energy Audits.

• Commonwealth Edison Company TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued) ILL.C.C. No. 4
Electric Energy Contingency Plan.
The provisions herein are to be implemented in the event of shortages of electric energy arising from
inadequate fuel supplies or from other long-term energy or capacity shortages. The provisions do
not apply in the event of short-term shortages of adequate capacity to meet loads during emergency
conditions of only a few hours' duration, and in any event shall not prevent the Company from
taking whatever steps are necessary, at any tine, in whatever order, and with or without notice, to
preserve integrity of the Company's system and interconnected network.
In the event of any developing shortage of electric energy, as above described, the Company will
first take steps it deems appropriate to obtain additional sources of fuel or electric energy and
will apply any appropriate electricity or fuel conservation measures to its own operation, to the
extent possible without reducing personnel and production efficiency. The Company will also, to
the extent possible, employ voltage reductions (not intentionally to exceed 8%) to reduce energy
use, and will, to the extent permitted by the applicable rate provisions, interrupt its
interruptible customers in order to conserve energy. The Company will, if practicable, notify
customers by appropriate media announcements 24 hours in advance of any planned nominal voltage
reduction in excess of 5%.
If the preceding measures are inadequate or are likely to be inadequate to alleviate the electric
energy shortage, the Company shall notify the Office of the Chief Clerk of the Illinois Commerce
Commission and the Commission's Electric Engineering Section of the present status of the energy
shortage, measures that have been taken by the Company, what the Company plans to do, and what the
public can do on a voluntary basis to alleviate the shortage. The Company may, if it believes
appropriate, and before or after such notice to the Commission, survey some or all of its largest
commercial and industrial customers to determine whether any such customers may be planning a
reduction in their electricity use for other reasons, and what other measures could be taken to
reduce their electricity use. The Company may, but only after 24-hour advance notice to the
Commission, make public appeals for voluntary curtailment of electricity use. Any means of
communication which the Company believes appropriate, ranging from the mass media to individual
customer contact may be employed, and the Company may make appropriate suggestions to the public
concerning measures that can be taken to reduce use.
If the above measures fail to alleviate the shortage of electric energy, and if the Company's
"expected period of electricity supply" as defined below declines to 30 days or less, the Company
will, upon 24-hour notice to the Commission, implement a plan of mandatory curtailment.
The Company will, by media communications it considers appropriate, notify customers of the amount of
curtailment required. Such amount will be expressed as a percentage of electricity use during an
appropriate base period preceding appeals for voluntary curtailment. In addition, the Company will
individually notify by telephone, with confirmation in writing, all customers with demands of 1,500
kilowatts or more and supply to the Commission a list of all such customers so notified. The
Company's initial notice of mandatory curtailment shall not require curtailment in excess of 30%.
If, however, the Company subsequently determines that a greater percentage curtailment than that
initially specified is necessary it may, after 24-hour notice to the Commission, notify customers
that such greater curtailment will be required.
Any customer not complying with a mandatory curtailment of electricity use will be subject to
disconnection of service, notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this tariff or the
Commission's General Order 172, upon 48-hour notice to the customer and to the Commission's
Electric Engineering Section. Such disconnection shall be effective for the duration of the period
of mandatory curtailment, unless the customer presents a plan for compliance and complies with the
mandatory curtailment then in effect. Curtailment will not be required, however, to the extent
that it would seriously jeopardize "essential services", as defined below. The Commission's
Electric Engineering Section shall be notified of restoration of service to any customer
disconnected for failure to comply with the required mandatory curtailment.
As a part of any plan of mandatory curtailment the Company may, upon 24-hour notice to the
Commission, implement a plan of rotating interruptions of distribution system circuits, avoiding to
the extent necessary and practicable interruption of circuits providing electricity for "essential
services". Such interruptions shall be limited to no more than three hours at a time and to no
more than nine hours per day for any circuit. The Company will, to the extent possible, notify
customers through the public media of the times at which their service may be interrupted. The
Company will maintain a current record of customer locations at which respirators, kidney dialysis
units and other similar life support equipment dependent upon electricity are used, and will to the
extent possible avoid interruption of servide to such customers unless prior precautions to protect
their health and safety have been taken.
10-85 - 5 -
Commonweel'th Edison Company TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued) ILL.C.C. No. 4
For purposes hereof the "expected period of electricity supply" shall be the estimated number of days
before the Company will be unable to meet its projected system loads because of insufficient fuel,
interruption of electricity supplies from other interconnected utilities or other causes. The
following factors shall be taken into account in estimating such number of days:
(1) current supplies of fuel plus anticipated fuel deliveries and any possible transfer of fuel
from one station to another,
(2) expected system electricity use, taking into account the effect of efforts to conserve
electricity, and
(3) the expected availability of owned generating capacity, availability of outside sources of
electricity, commitments to sell electricity to other systems and the effect of conservation
measures by the Company in its own operation.
For purposes hereof "essential services" shall mean those services or activities requiring the use of
electrticity for the protection of the public health, safety or security or to aid in alleviating
the electricity shortage. Customers providing essential services are exempt from mandatory
curtailment requirements only to the extent necessary to provide those services, and are not
necessarily exempt from inclusion in a plan of rotating interruption of distribution system
circuits. Such inclusion may, for example, occur because the Company has no knowledge of such
customers on particular circuits or because the importance of interrupting particular circuits in
order to distribute more fairly the burden of achieving needed load curtailment outweighs the
importance of an uninterrupted supply of electricity to such customers on those circuits.
Facilities deemed to be engaged in providing essential services are subject to change by the
Illinois Commerce Commission. Examples of facilities which may be engaged, in whole or in part, in
providing essential services include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following:
1. Facilities for life support:
A. Hospitals and convalescent homes.
B. Respirators, kidney dialysis units and other similar equipment.
2. Facilities for national, state or local security:
A. Missile sites.
B. Defense communication network centers.
C. Civil defense facilities.
D. Prisons.
E. Other governmental facilities essential for national defense or emergency services.
3. Facilities for public health and safety:
A. Police and fire control facilities.
B. Traffic signal and control, and highway lighting facilities.
C. Public utility facilities, including those for providing electricity, natural or
manufactured gas, garbage collection, water and sewage disposal.
D. Operation, guidance control and navigation facilities for public transportation and
shipping, including rail, mass transit, and commercial air and water transportation.
E. Communication facilities, including telephone, telegraph, radio and television.
F. Medical and food supply facilities.
4. Facilities for the production and distribution of energy resources.
A. Coal mining and transportation facilities.
B. Facilities for the production, storage and distribution of natural or manufactured gas and
petroleum fuels.
C. Facilities for the production, transmission and distribution of electricity.
D. Construction of facilities that would aid in alleviating the instant electricity shortage.

RIDER 20
ELECTRIC FUEL ADJUSTMENT CLAUSE
Applicable to all Rates except Rates 23 and 26 and also applicable to Riders 13, 160 25 and 26
This rider is applicable to all kilowatthours (KWH's) of energy supplied to customers served by the
Company under the above designated rates and riders and under individual contracts on file with the
Illinois Commerce Commission (Commission) where the charge for such energy is subject to adjustment for
increases and decreases in the cost of fuel.
Costs passed through the Fuel Adjustment Clause represent either actual historical costs or estimates of
historical costs (when actual is not available at time of computation), subject to adjustment as actual
costs become available. The fuel costs used in calculating the Fuel Adjustment Charge are the total of
allowable fuel and fuel related costs as identified herein.
The charges for all KWH's of energy supplied to designated customers shall be increased or decreased by a
fuel adjustment charge or credit determined as follows:
FAC = (CF + CPP - CNS/ - BFC + Ra + Ro x GT
S /
where:
FAC = Fuel Adjustment Charge or Credit per KWH: The amount in cents per KWH, rounded to the nearest
.001e, to be charged for each KWH in any monthly billing period.
The FAC is subject to adjustment to minimize accumulated over/under recoveries of fuel costs
by application of the automatic reconciliation factor (Ra) and the ordered reconciliation
factor (Ro) as defined herein.
CF = Allowable Cost of Fuel associated with Company owned generating plants: Fuel cost includes
the cost of all fossil and nuclear fuel consumed in the Company's owned plants and/or in
plants owned by wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company and/or the Company's share of fossil
and nuclear fuel consumed in jointly owned or leased plants during the determination period.
CPP = Allowable Energy Cost associated with Purchased Power: Purchased power includes emergency,
contract and economy purchases from other electric utilities and from customers served under
the Company's Rider 4, Parallel Operation of Customer's Qualifying Generating Facilities.
Only the energy related portion of the charges for power purchased during the determination
period is included. All other associated charges are specifically excluded. Non-monetary
exchanges of power are not included.
CNS = Fuel Costs associated with Sales Not Subject to the Fuel Adjustment Clause:
Non-jurisdictional sales include sales for resale, interdepartmental sales, energy furnished
without charge and other sales not subject to the Fuel Adjustment Clause.
Such fuel costs are calculated on the basis of the average fuel costs during the determination
period except in the case of fuel costs associated with interchange power sales (emergency,
contract and economy power sales to other electric utilities) which are the amounts recovered
with respect to fuel in such sales, ordinarily the incremental cost of such fuel.
S = Sales: KWH's billed to ultimate consumers, during the determination period, subject to the
Fuel Adjustment Clause.
BFC = Base Fuel Cost: The base fuel cost is the fuel cost included in the energy charges of the
Company's rates. This base cost is equal to 1.600 cents per kilowatthour.
Re = Automatic Reconciliation Factor: The automatic reconciliation factor (Ra) is triggered when
the accumulated balance of the over/under recoveries of allowable costs at the end of the last
month of the determination period exceeds ten percent of (CF + CPP - CNS) for the
determination period.
If so triggered, the automatic reconciliation factor (Ra) is positive or negative (depending
on whether there has been an accumulated under or over recovery) and shall be equal to ten
percent of
C CF + CPP - CNS 1
S I
for the determination period related to the billing period in which the factor is to be
applied.
Ro = Ordered Reconciliation Factor: The FAC is subject to an ordered reconciliation factor (Ro) as
may be required by the Commission.

(Continued from Sheet No.24)
Late Payment Charge.
The late payment charge provided for in the Terms and Conditions of this Schedule of Rates shall be applicable to all charges
under this rate.
Minimum Charge.
The minimum monthly charge shall be the monthly customer charge.
'Maximum Charge.
For customers with demand meters, the average cost of electricity hereunder in any month, exclusive of the Monthly
Customer Charge, shall not exceed the sum of 19.786t and the fuel adjustment per kilowatthour provided, however, that
such guaranteed charge shall not operate to reduce the Customer's bill to an amount less than the minimum charge.
Maximum Demand.
For General Service—Time of Day customers,the maximum demand in any month shall be the highest 30-minute demand es-
tablished during the peak periods in such month.
For General Service customers,the maximum demand shall be the highest 30-minute demand established during such month.
Application of Demand Charge.
The Company shall provide a demand meter and the demand charge shall apply when a customer's monthly kilowatthour use
exceeds 2,000 kilowatthours in each of two successive monthly billing periods or if his maximum demand or monthly
kilowatthour use is estimated as in excess of ten kilowatts or 2,000 kilowatthours, respectively. Any customer to whom the
demand charge would not ordinarily apply under the foregoing sentence, may, at his request and upon payment of appro-
priate meter rentals, be provided with a demand meter and billed the demand charge rather than the charge in lieu thereof.
In such case,meter rentals shall be payable for the period during which the Customer elects to retain the meter,but not less
than 12 months, unless he becomes entitled to a demand meter prior to the end of the 12-month period. A customer who is
entitled to a demand meter shall not be required to pay rental or other separate charges for such meter.
Whether or not a demand meter is installed, the charge in lieu of demand charge shall apply to any customer, except a cus-
tomer paying rental for a demand meter in accordance with the foregoing paragraph, whose use has not exceeded 2,000
kilowatthours and whose maximum demand has not exceeded ten kilowatts in any month of the preceding 16-month period,
and shall continue to apply until the Customer's use exceeds 2,000 kilowatthours in two successive monthly billing periods or
his demand exceeds ten kilowatts in two successive monthly billing periods.
'Measurement of Demand and Kilowattbours Supplied.
Where two or more metering installations are provided on the Customer's premises,the demand in any 30-minute period shall
be determined by adding together the separate demands at each metering installation during such 3&minute period except
that (a) in case the demand at any metering installation is registered by an indicating or cumulative demand meter, the
demand at such installation in each 30-minute period of any month shall be assumed to be the same as the highest demand
in any 30-minute period of such month,and(b)the demand at any installation may be assumed to be 75 percent of the con-
nected load if such connected load is two kilowatts or less, and such demand is to be added to a metered demand. Where
there are two or more watthour metering installations on the Customer's premises,the kilowatthours supplied shall be deter-
mined by adding together the kilowatthours metered at each installation,provided that where the kilowatthours at any such
installation exceed 5,500 in the billing month and are not metered in such a manner as to permit determination of the hours
during which they were delivered, for purposes of applying the time of day provisions of this rate,such kilowatthours shall
be considered to have been delivered in peak periods. If the energy use at such installation is 5,500 kilowatthours or less in
the billing month, a charge of 4.021t per kilowatthour shall apply to such kilowatthours. The maximum demands and
kilowatthours supplied for two or more premises will not be combined for billing purposes hereunder.
Upon request, the Company will provide unmetered service for connected loads not exceeding two kilowatts, where operation
of the Customer's equipment is continuous or is regularly scheduled on an annual basis. For the purposes of billing in such
cases, the monthly kilowatthours shall be determined by multiplying the rated wattage (based upon nameplate or other
appropriate data) of the connected loads by one-twelfth of the annual hours of operation and dividing by 1,000. All
kilowatthours delivered to an unmetered point of supply shall be considered to have been delivered during peak periods.

RATE 6. GENERAL SERVICE
(Continued from Sheet No.25)
In the case of qualifying cable antenna television service locations, kilowatthour usage for billing purposes will initially be
based upon 50 6 of the nameplate rating of the CATV power transformers directly connected to the Company's system;the
monthly kilowatthours may also be determined by test at the Company's option or upon request of the Customer. Tests
must be conducted by or on behalf of the Company within 60 days of the Customer's request. Kilowatthour use determined
by test will be used prospectively only,will apply beginning with the billing period following the test and will continue until
changed by further test or other appropriate data. The Customer shall pay the Company's charge for any test done at its
request, unless the test discloses fewer monthly kilowatthours than are being used for billing. In any event, the Company
shall be entitled to test kilowatthour usage at the Customer's expense once each year at each service location. The Com-
pany's charge for a test shall not exceed$60.00. Notwithstanding other provisions of this rate,the charge in lieu of demand
charge shall not apply,and instead a charge equal to the weighted average of the summer and winter demand charges per
kilowatt divided by one-twelfth of the annual hours of operation of the load shall be applied to the unmetered monthly
kilowatthours as above determined.
Adjustment of Demands.
In case the Customer, as a result of seasonal or vacation variations in load, has an abrupt decrease of at least 50% in his
maximum demand during the months of June through September,he will be entitled to the proration of demand charges in
the billing period in which such decrease occurs,and if,in the same calendar year,he has a subsequent abrupt increase of at
least 100076 in maximum demand during such months, he will be entitled to the proration of demand charges in the billing
period in which such increase occurs, provided that(1)a period of reduced demand continues for at least seven consecutive
days immediately following the demand reduction for which proration is sought, and for at least seven consecutive days
immediately preceding the demand increase for which proration is sought, (2) demands registered by an indicating or
cumulative demand meter shall not be subject to such proration, (3) such proration will be granted only upo« written
request by the Customer stipulating the date of such decrease or increase and received by the Company in advance of such
date,and(4)that proration will be granted for only one such decrease and subsequent increase in each calendar year.
'Service Facilities--Time of Day.
A standard installation furnished by the Company hereunder shall be determined by the provisions of the Company's Rider 6
except that the facilities so provided as standard shall be adequate only to supply service to a load equal to the maximum
30-minute demand of the Customer established during the peak period. If larger facilities are required to serve the excess of
the off-peak demand over the peak period demand, the Customer shall pay, as optional facilities in accordance with the
Company's Rider 6, the cost of any facilities so required. No optional facilities charges shall apply, however, to facilities
existing and in place at the time the Customer qualifies for service hereunder.
'Optional General Service—Time of Day.
Customers with maximum demands of less than 500 kilowatts may elect to be billed in accordance with the provisions of
General Service—Time of Day. Any customer may elect Time of Day service by written application to the Company.Initial
