Electric Service Terms
The Terms and Conditions for Electric Service for the City of Newton's Electric System
are now in written form and in the future will be distributed to all new Customers
and any existing Customers requesting a copy.
The Electric Service Regulations are intended for use as a Customer Service tool by City personnel to provide
the rules and regulations of how the City Electric Division provides Electric Service to its Customers.
When used in an appropriate manner and with common sense, all new and existing Customers of the City's
Electric System will be treated in a fair and equal manner.
The understanding and cooperation of all City employees is essential if the City is to provide excellent
Customer Service to its Customers. This manual does not address every possible problem, question, or concern
related to Electric Service. Rather, it is a guide for a systematic approach to providing Electric Service.
The Electric Service Regulations will assist in the daily activities of City personnel and will also assist
in training of new employees in their Customer Service duties. Proper utilization of this guide will allow
City personnel to provide the best service possible.
In conclusion, the Terms and Conditions provide the Customer with a guide for what to expect from the City of
Newton and the Electric Service Regulations provide a guide for City personnel to use providing the best service
to Customers of the City's Electric System.
