Title 58 - Public Utilities, Services and Carriers
CHAPTER 27 - ELECTRIC UTILITIES AND ELECTRIC COOPERATIVES
SECTION 58-27-1590. Meters to measure electricity going into or out of State; records and reports thereof.
When an electrical utility is engaged in both interstate business and intrastate business in this State and at any time transmits electricity either into or from this State (a) by the use, either wholly or in part, of any transmission line or other facilities also used in intrastate service in this State, (b) if the electricity is generated by the use, either wholly or in part, of any facilities also used in intrastate service in this State, or (c) if the electricity is a part of any supply of electricity acquired by purchase, exchange, or any means other than actual generation and any part of the supply of electricity is also at any time used in intrastate service in this State, the commission may require the electrical utility to maintain at or near the state line, within this State, a meter or meters of a type or types to be approved by the commission before installation which must accurately and separately measure and register the electricity coming into and going out of this State. Any such electrical utility shall make records and reports of the meter readings as the Office of Regulatory Staff requires, all to the end that the Office of Regulatory Staff, in the performance of its duties in relation to intrastate operations and rates in this State, may at all times be able to determine with reasonable accuracy the results of the intrastate operations in this State of the electrical utility apart from its interstate operation or its operations in any other state or states and to segregate with reasonable precision the property devoted to interstate service or to the services of any other state or states.
