FOREWORD
FPL, in cooperation with customers and their agents, wishes to provide adequate electric service in an
expeditious manner.
This publication, FPL's Electric Service Standards (ESS), is intended to furnish information often required by
customers and their agents (builders, architects, engineers, electricians, etc.) to receive FPL's electric
service. The ESS is subject to and subordinate in all respects to FPL's Tariff, as amended from time to time
and approved by the Florida Public Service Commission, the Florida Administrative Code as it pertains to
publicly held utilities, and to the provisions of the current edition of the National Electrical Safety Code.
This document is not intended to be all inclusive and is not a substitute for direct communication
between the Customer and FPL. This direct communication is essential to mutually understanding
service needs and requirements, and the ability of FPL to provide prompt and adequate electric
service.
FPL's ESS is revised periodically due to ongoing changes in engineering and construction practices, and
consequently some of the provisions contained herein may be obsolete.
ESS MANUAL ONLINE
It is essential that the Customer or his agent contact FPL's representative or go online to ensure they have
the latest issue of FPL's Electric Service Standards. The ESS is available in pdf format and can be opened
with adobe acrobat reader. In addition, it can be saved or printed by section or as a complete manual.
The ESS can be found on the web at: www.fpl.com/partner/pdf/electric-service-standards.pdf
FPL PROJECT PORTAL
Making it easy to manage your construction project, the new FPL Project Portal is a site that provides you
with self-service options such as applying for a construction project, tracking the status of your project,
viewing pending and completed requirements, collaborating with your FPL team, and paying your
construction bills online.

Processes
I. DEFINITIONS
Base Rate Revenue - For use in these Standards, the non-fuel energy (kwh) and demand charge
(kwd), if any, revenue resulting from the Customer's electricity use under the applicable rate schedule.
Base Rate Revenue excludes, without limitation, customer charges, taxes, franchise fees; fuel,
conservation, capacity payment, environmental charges; and any other charges or credits (such as
TR rider, transformer rental, or load management or curtailment credits).
CIAC (Contribution in Aid of Construction) - A nonrefundable charge for electric service where (a)
the extension is not justified by projected revenues and/or (b) the cost of providing underground
electric facilities exceeds the cost of equivalent overhead facilities ("differential" cost), and/or (c)
non-standard service, as determined by FPL, is being requested for the load being served.
Commercial Service - For purposes of these Electric Service Standards, any electric service used
for non-residential purposes (excluding those applications found in FPL's "lighting" tariffs).
Customer - Any present or prospective user of FPL's electric service, or any person or entity
representing him, such as the architect, engineer, electrical contractor, land developer, builder, etc.
Expected Incremental Base Revenue - The estimated Base Rate Revenue, as defined above and
determined by FPL, generated on the facilities being installed or upgraded to serve the Customer.
ESS (Electric Service Standards) - The acronym referring to this publication.
FAC (Florida Administrative Code) - The official compilation of the Rules and Regulations of Florida
Regulatory Agencies filed with the Dept. of State under the Provisions of Chapter 120, Fla. Statutes.
FPL - Florida Power and Light Company or an employee properly qualified to represent Florida Power
and Light Company.
Ground - A conducting connection between an electrical circuit or piece of equipment and the earth,
or to a conducting body that serves in place of the earth.
Meter Socket - A meter socket is a device which provides support and means of electrical connection
to a watthour meter. It has a wiring chamber, with provisions for conduit entrances and exits, and a
means of sealing the meter in place. The word "socket" in these Standards refers to meter socket.
Mobile Home - A mobile home is a factory assembled structure designed to be used as a living unit,
and readily movable on its own running gear. It has no permanent foundation.
Multiple Occupancy Building - A unified structure containing five or more individual dwelling units.
Point of Delivery - The location where FPL-owned conductors are connected to customer-owned
conductors. Typical points of delivery include weatherheads, meter sockets, service junction boxes,
handholes, padmounted transformers, and vaults. The point of delivery shall be determined by FPL.
The point of delivery for an FPL owned and maintained underground residential service lateral is the
line side of the meter socket, for an FPL owned and maintained overhead service drop the point of
delivery is the attachment to the customer’s weatherhead.
Recreational Vehicle (RV) - A vehicle designated for temporary living quarters for camping, traveling,
or recreational use. It may have its own motive power, or be mounted on or pulled by another vehicle.
Residential Service - Electric service supplied exclusively for domestic purposes in individually
metered dwelling units, where permanent residency is established, including the separately metered
non-commercial-use facilities of a residential customer (e.g. garages, water pumps, etc.).

Secondary Network Service - A type of electric service generally available only in certain parts of
downtown Miami from an existing grid of interconnected secondary conductors. This grid is fed from
two or more three-phase transformers connected to different primary feeders. Service voltage from
the grid is 120/208 volt, four wire wye. Spot network service (single locations or small confined areas)
may be 277/480 volt, four wire wye. The network service is only available in specific locations and
new secondary networks are not being constructed.
Service - The conductors and equipment that deliver energy from FPL's system to the wiring system
of the premise being served. It also means maintenance of voltage and frequency (within acceptable
tolerances) by FPL at the point of delivery.
Service Drop - The overhead conductors from FPL's last pole or other aerial support to and including
the splices, if any, connecting the Customer's service entrance conductors at the building or other
structure.
Service Entrance - The Customer's installation from the service drop or service lateral connection to
and including the service equipment.
Service Entrance Conductors - The Customer's conductors from point of connection at the service
drop or service lateral to the service equipment.
Service Equipment - The Customer's equipment which controls the electric service and contains the
switching and overcurrent protective devices, usually located near the entry point of the service
entrance conductors into the building.
Service Lateral - The underground service conductors connecting FPL's distribution system to the
Customer's service entrance conductors.
Standard Service - The minimum level of service, as determined by FPL, for the load to which
electric service is being requested by the Customer. Typically, this service is overhead (with wood
poles), at the standard voltages specified in ESS Section III.A, to the FPL designated point of
delivery. Generally, any service requested of FPL that exceeds FPL's minimum level of service is
paid for as a CIAC. All service is alternating current (AC) at 60 hertz (cycles per second).
Tariff - Schedule of FPL rates, charges, and General Rules and Regulations for providing electric
service. FPL's Electric Tariff is available for inspection at any FPL business office, and is on file with
Florida's Public Service Commission (FPSC). The word "Tariff" in these Standards refers to FPL's
Electric Tariff.
Temporary/Construction Service - Limited term electric service to operations such as: Exhibitions,
Construction Projects, Fairs, Holiday Lighting, Dredging Jobs, etc.
Transformer Vault - An isolated enclosure, with fire resistant walls, ceilings and floor, in which
transformers and related equipment are installed and not continuously attended during operation.
Underground Distribution - A distribution system where the conductors are buried with or without
enclosing ducts. Newer systems are in conduit. Transformers, switches and other equipment are
normally above ground, or enclosed in vaults or other enclosures.
URD - (Underground Residential Distribution) - An underground distribution system, primarily
supplying single phase, three wire service laterals to residential dwelling units. Most conductors are
buried and new systems are in conduit. Transformers and primary switches are contained in above
ground padmounted enclosures.

Customer - For the purpose of these Standards, the word "Customer" represents any present or
prospective user of FPL's electric service, or any person or entity representing him, such as the
architect, engineer, electrical contractor, land developer, or builder, etc.
Contacting FPL - FPL maintains offices throughout its service area. New extensions of electric
facilities to serve customers, or modifications to existing electric facilities, are generally handled
by FPL's Construction Department. Information concerning a specific installation should be
requested by the Customer from FPL's nearest Construction office. Locations are listed at the
end of this section. Early Contact with FPL is necessary to ensure provision of electric service
in as timely a fashion as possible.
Close coordination is necessary throughout the planning and construction stages by FPL and the
Customer, or those representing him. Particular attention shall be given to the scheduling of the
construction of paved areas and the various sub grade installations of the several utilities.
FPL strives to supply its Customers' needs for electric service as efficiently, reliably and
economically as possible. Although this publication provides many of the guidelines concerning
FPL's character of service and policies, it is not possible to document all the detailed information
the Customer may require. This publication is not intended to replace direct communication
with FPL. Contact with FPL during the early stages of the Customer's design is strongly
encouraged to avoid misunderstanding, delays, and unnecessary expense.
A Notification of New Construction form is available upon request for use by the Customer to
facilitate the exchange of information between FPL and the design professionals on large
projects.
B. Application for Electric Service

Application for electric service shall be well in advance of the date service will be required. All
matters pertaining to the use of electric service should be discussed with FPL at that time.
Depending on the service requested, a standard written agreement between the Customer and
FPL may be required. Depending on the type of premise or load being served, any or all of the
following Information may be required of the Customer:
1. Exact location of premise to be served (i.e., site plan, recorded plat, street address, lot,
block number and legal description of property)
2. Size of air conditioning, heating, water heating, cooking, etc; type and voltage of other
motor load, number of phases, horsepower; street lighting, traffic signals, etc.
3. Mechanical plans, electrical plans, elevations, etc.
4. Utility (water, sewer, gas, etc.) plans, paving & drainage plans, landscaping plans
5. Any special or unusual requirements
Every reasonable effort will be made by FPL to reach a prompt and mutually satisfactory
arrangement with the Customer regarding the characteristics of the service to be furnished and
the designated point of delivery.

DATE
Electric Service Standards 9-16-19

Distribution Engineering II. GENERAL II: 2 of 13
C. Availability of Desired Type of Electric Service

Contact with FPL early in the Customer's planning stage is strongly encouraged to determine
availability of service at any location, FPL's standard type of service for the load to be served, and
the designated point of delivery. If the standard type of service does not meet the Customer's
requirements, FPL will consider supplying the requested type of service, subject to availability,
providing the manner of use does not jeopardize the quality of service to others. It may be
necessary for the Customer to compensate FPL for any incremental costs of supplying such
service. If special FPL equipment is needed, adequate time shall be allowed to obtain it.
Written information concerning availability and character of service for any desired location will be
supplied by FPL. FPL will not be responsible for mistakes resulting from information given orally.
Contact with FPL early in the Customer's design stage is essential so that engineering, material
procurement, and job scheduling may be performed in a manner conducive to providing timely
service to the customer. Any change in plans that is likely to affect the electric service should be
communicated to FPL at once. Failure to do so may result in unnecessary delays and/or
expense.
D. Contributions by Customer
Throughout these standards, references are made to customer Contributions In Aid of
Construction (CIAC), whereby the customer pays for a portion of the requested service. In all
cases, ownership of the requested facility remains with FPL, and payments are required well in
advance of FPL's construction, allowing for proper scheduling. Contact your FPL representative
concerning the "timing" of the payment. Withholding payment until the latter stages of a project's
development may cause unnecessary delays and added expense to the Customer.
In the event trenching and conduit are involved, the customer may provide the trench and/or
install the FPL provided PVC conduit, where mutually agreed upon by the customer and FPL.
The Customer will receive a credit, as determined by FPL, for such work. The amount of the
credit is limited to the total amount of CIAC that is due. Typically, the credit will be granted after
the work has been inspected by FPL and, in the case of customer installed conduit, after FPL
pulls the cable.
E. Rights of Way and Easements

The customer shall furnish and record satisfactory rights of way and easements, including legal
descriptions of such easements and all survey work associated with producing legal descriptions
of such easements, as required by and at no cost to FPL before FPL commences construction.
Only the unaltered FPL standard form 3722 will be accepted for easements. Before FPL starts
construction, these rights of way and easements shall be cleared by the customer of trees, tree
stumps and other obstructions that conflict with construction, staked to show property corners and
survey control points, graded to within six inches of final grade, with soil stabilized. In addition,
the customer shall provide stakes showing final grade along the easement. Such clearing and
grading shall be maintained by the customer during construction by FPL.
Where plats are concerned, FPL requests the plat be presented before recording so provisions
for easements can be included on the plat. This will minimize, if not eliminate, future costs
associated with producing, securing, and recording the easement(s).
When building additions to existing structures, care shall be taken not to encroach upon FPL's
easements. Violation of FPL's granted easements may result in legal consequences to the
building owner. FPL should be contacted early in the design and planning stage in order to
determine if changes to FPL's existing easement are required.

F. Measuring (Metering) Electric Consumption

1. FPL's individual electric metering requirements are set forth in Florida Administrative Code
25-6.049, which states in sections (5) through nine (9):
(5) Individual electric metering by the utility shall be required for each separate occupancy unit of new
commercial establishments, residential buildings, condominiums, cooperatives, marinas, and trailer, mobile
home and recreational vehicle parks. However, individual metering shall not be required for any such
occupancy unit for which a construction permit was issued before, and which has received master-metered
service continuously since January 1, 1981. In addition, individual electric meters shall not be required:
(a) In those portions of a commercial establishment where the floor space dimensions or physical
configuration of the units are subject to alteration, as evidenced by non-structural element partition walls,
unless the utility determines that adequate provisions can be made to modify the metering to accurately
reflect such alterations;
(b) For electricity used in central heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems, or electric back up
service to storage heating and cooling systems;
(c) For electricity used in specialized-use housing accommodations such as hospitals, nursing homes,
living facilities located on the same premises as, and operated in conjunction with, a nursing home or other
health care facility providing at least the same level and types of services as a nursing home, convalescent
homes, facilities certificated under Chapter 651, F.S., college dormitories, convents, sorority houses, fraternity
houses, and similar facilities;
(d) For lodging establishments such as hotels, motels, and similar facilities which are rented, leased, or
otherwise provided to guests by an operator providing overnight occupancy as defined in paragraph (8)(b);
(e) For separate, specially-designated areas for overnight occupancy, as defined in paragraph (8)(b), at
trailer, mobile home and recreational vehicle parks and marinas where permanent residency is not
established;
(f) For new and existing time-share plans, provided that all of the occupancy units which are served by
the master meter or meters are committed to a time-share plan as defined in Chapter 721, F.S., and none of
the occupancy units are used for permanent occupancy.
(g) For condominiums that meet the following criteria:
1. The declaration of condominium requires that at least 95 percent of the units are used solely for
overnight occupancy as defined in paragraph (8)(b) of this rule;
2. A registration desk, lobby and central telephone switchboard are maintained; and
3. A record is kept for each unit showing each check-in and check-out date for the unit, and the name(s)
of the individual(s) registered to occupy the unit between each check-in and check-out date.
(6) Master-metered condominiums.
(a) Initial Qualifications – In addition to the criteria in paragraph (5)(g), in order to initially qualify for
master-metered service, the owner or developer of the condominium, the condominium association, or the
customer must attest to the utility that the criteria in paragraph (5)(g) and in this subsection have been met,
and that any cost of future conversion to individual metering will be the responsibility of the customer,
consistent with subsection (7) of this rule. Upon request and reasonable notice by the utility, the utility shall
be allowed to inspect the condominium to collect evidence needed to determine whether the condominium is
in compliance with this rule. If the criteria in paragraph (5)(g) and in this subsection are not met, then the
utility shall not provide master-metered service to the condominium.
(b) Ongoing Compliance – The customer shall attest annually, in writing, to the utility that the
condominium meets the criteria for master metering in paragraph (5)(g). The utility shall establish the date
that annual compliance materials are due based on its determination of the date that the criteria in paragraphs

DATE

(5)(g) and (6)(a) were initially satisfied, and shall inform the customer of that date before the first annual
notice is due. The customer shall notify the utility within 10 days if, at any time, the condominium ceases to
meet the requirements in paragraph (5)(g).
(c) Upon request and reasonable notice by the utility, the utility shall be allowed to inspect the
condominium to collect evidence needed to determine whether the condominium is in compliance with this
rule.
(d) Failure to Comply – If a condominium is master metered under the exemption in this rule and
subsequently fails to meet the criteria contained in paragraph (5)(g), or the customer fails to make the annual
attestation required by paragraph (6)(b), then the utility shall promptly notify the customer that the
condominium is no longer eligible for master-metered service. If the customer does not respond with clear
evidence to the contrary within 30 days of receiving the notice, the customer shall individually meter the
condominium units within six months following the date on the notice. During this six month period, the utility
shall not discontinue service based on failure to comply with this rule. Thereafter, the provisions of Rule 25-
6.105, F.A.C., apply.
(7) When a structure or building is converted from individual metering to master metering, or from master
metering to individual metering, the customer shall be responsible for the costs incurred by the utility for the
conversion. These costs shall include, but not be limited to, any remaining undepreciated cost of any existing
distribution equipment which is removed or transferred to the ownership of the customer, plus the cost of
removal or relocation of any distribution equipment, less the salvage value of any removed equipment.
(8) For purposes of this rule:
(a) “Occupancy unit” means that portion of any commercial establishment, single and multi-unit residential
building, or trailer, mobile home or recreational vehicle park, or marina which is set apart from the rest of such
facility by clearly determinable boundaries as described in the rental, lease, or ownership agreement for such
unit.
(b) “Overnight Occupancy” means use of an occupancy unit for a short term such as per day or per week
where permanent residency is not established.
(9)(a) Where individual metering is not required under subsection (5) and master metering is used in lieu
thereof, reasonable apportionment methods, including sub-metering may be used by the customer of record
or the owner of such facility solely for the purpose of allocating the cost of the electricity billed by the utility.
The term “cost” as used herein means only those charges specifically authorized by the electric utility’s tariff,
including but not limited to the customer, energy, demand, fuel, conservation, capacity and environmental
charges made by the electric utility plus applicable taxes and fees to the customer of record responsible for
the master meter payments. The term does not include late payment charges, returned check charges, the
cost of the customer-owned distribution system behind the master meter, the customer of record’s cost of
billing the individual units, and other such costs.
(b) Any fees or charges collected by a customer of record for electricity billed to the customer’s account
by the utility, whether based on the use of sub-metering or any other allocation method, shall be determined
in a manner which reimburses the customer of record for no more than the customer’s actual cost of
electricity.
(c) Each utility shall develop a standard policy governing the provisions of sub-metering as provided for
herein. Such policy shall be filed by each utility as part of its tariffs. The policy shall have uniform application
and shall be nondiscriminatory.

DATE

Design Support
G. Conjunctive Billing or Totalized Metering as disallowed in FAC 25-6.102

(1) Conjunctive billing means totalizing metering, additive billing, plural meter billing,
conjunctional metering, and all like or similar billing practices which seek to combine, for
billing purposes, the separate consumptions and registered demands of two or more points of
delivery serving a single customer.
(2) A single point of delivery of electric service to a user of such service is defined as the single
geographical point where a single class of electric service, as defined in a published rate
tariff, is delivered from the facilities of the utility to the facilities of the customer.
(3) Conjunctive billing shall not be permitted. Bills for two or more points of delivery to the
same customer shall be calculated separately for each such point of delivery.
(4) A customer operating a single integrated business* under one name in two or more buildings
and/or energy consuming locations may request a single point of delivery and such request
shall be complied with by the utility providing that:
(a) Such buildings or locations are situated on a single unit of property; or
(b) Such buildings or locations are situated on two or more units of property which are
immediately adjoining, adjacent or contiguous; or
(c) Such buildings or locations are situated on two or more units of property, which are
immediately adjoining, adjacent or contiguous except for intervening streets, alleys or
highways.
In all cases arising in sub-paragraph (a), (b), or (c), it shall be the customer's responsibility to
provide the electrical facilities necessary for distributing the energy beyond the single delivery
point [or pay to FPL a monthly rental fee for FPL-owned facilities beyond the meter].
*The word "business" as used in this section shall be construed as including residences and
educational, religious, governmental, commercial, and industrial operations.
H. Electrical Inspections and Connection of Service

When a Customer's electrical installation has been completed, it shall be inspected by the local
electrical inspector to ensure compliance with the National Electrical Code and such local rules
that may apply. FPL cannot energize new service installations until such inspection has been
made, and until formal notice from the inspecting authority has been received by FPL.
I. Customer Responsibility for Safety and Adequacy of Wiring

Electric service is rendered to the Customer with the understanding that he will not use any
appliance or device which is not properly constructed, controlled and protected, or that may
adversely affect service rendered to him or other Customers. FPL shall reserve the right to
discontinue or refuse service to any apparatus or device, which in its opinion, may adversely
affect the service to any other Customer or utility or that may be of an improper or unsafe type
(FAC 25-6.105), even if the inspection, as mentioned in paragraph “H” above, has been received
by FPL. However, FPL assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any portion of the Customer's
wiring installation, FPL depends upon the local inspecting authority to ensure the adequacy of the
wiring on the customer’s premise.
Compliance with the National Electrical Code, National Electrical Safety Code and local codes
ensures that the installation conforms to recognized minimum safe practices. It is the
responsibility of the Customer to comply with all Code requirements.

DATE

The Customer shall decide whether additional capacity should be provided for future load growth.
In general, FPL recommends that an adequate margin for load growth be provided.
J. Access to FPL Facilities

Access to the Customer's premise shall be provided for the purpose of reading meters, installing,
maintaining, inspecting or removing FPL's property, and other purposes incident to performance
under or termination of FPL's agreement with the Customer, and in such performance, FPL or its
representatives shall not be liable for trespass.
All employees of FPL who may have business on the Customer's property are required to identify
themselves as FPL employees upon request. If anyone representing himself as an employee of
FPL cannot produce identification, FPL is to be notified at once.
K. Load Balance
To prevent overloading the service conductors and transformer coils, the Customer's electrical
load shall be properly balanced on the service entrance conductors and service equipment.
On 120/240 volt, four wire delta services, the conductor identified as high voltage to ground,
commonly known as the "high leg" or "power leg", shall only be used to feed into a three phase
load circuit and shall not be used as a phase to ground conductor.
L. Customer Owned Generators

1. Standby Generator
In some cases, the Customer may wish to provide an emergency 60 hertz generator to supply a
portion, or all, of his electric service in the event of failure of FPL's service.
In such cases, the Customer shall provide a transfer device which meets the National Electrical
Code and is listed and labeled by a Nationally Recognized Test Lab (NRTL), such as U.L., to a
standard equal to U.L. 1008 Transfer Switch Equipment, or listed and labeled to one of the
following;
U.L. 67 Panel boards

U.L. 98 Enclosed switches
U.L. 891 Switchboards
AND, the device is also labeled as "Suitable for use as transfer equipment in accordance with
article 702 of the NEC" or similar verbiage indicating that it can be used as transfer equipment.
Note: the second label, referring to the using the device as transfer equipment, will not have a
U.L. mark on the label, but still meets U.L. by the existence of the first label. This switch shall be
provided by the customer and shall disconnect the Customer’s service equipment from FPL’s
lines before connecting it to the emergency generator.
2. Parallel Generation and Cogeneration

FPL approval is required where the Customer is considering the use of Cogeneration (the
simultaneous production in one facility of electricity and other useful forms of energy such as
steam or heat) or small power producer generation (i.e., those using renewable resource fuel
sources) if it is to connect to FPL's system. Consult with FPL for further details.
Customers considering the installation of generating equipment intended to supply a portion
or all of their electric service, shall consult with FPL regarding the design, installation and the

DATE

Design Support
operation of this generating equipment. Momentary parallel generation is limited to 100ms

maximum. Generation other than cogeneration and small power producers shall not operate
in parallel with FPL's systems without proper protective equipment for the interconnection as
outlined by FPL. The Customer's system design shall be submitted for review and approval
by FPL before any connection is made. The Customer is responsible for the full cost of any
modifications to FPL's facilities necessary to accommodate the Customer's system.
Caution: FPL shall be consulted before any type of generating or communications
equipment is installed and connected to any circuit which is or could be fed from FPL's
distribution system.
M. Unauthorized Attachments
FPL prohibits any attachments to its poles or other equipment unless specifically authorized by
agreement. Such attachments include, but are not limited to fences, banners, signs, clotheslines,
basketball backboards, antennas, placards, political posters or any advertising matter. FPL
prohibits attachments to electricity meters such as power monitoring devices, shielding to prevent
RF communication, and locking devices to prevent utility access. FPL will remove unauthorized
attachments without notice. Meter sockets and Customer's electric service risers are not to be
attached to FPL poles, except where permitted by FPL.
Customer owned secondary capacitors, surge arresters, or photovoltaic system interconnects
may not be installed inside or outside the meter socket or connected to FPL's conductors. It is
suggested these devices be installed in, or adjacent to, the customer’s disconnect panel(s) on the
load side of the main line switch. Meter socket base bypass switches, such as generator
interconnection devices, may not be installed inside or outside the meter socket, refer to section
“L” above for generator connection requirements. Also, external grounding bars and other
devices are not allowed to be attached to the outside of the meter enclosure.
FPL forbids any work on or access to any of its facilities without authorization.
N. Continuity of Service
FPL strives to furnish reliable, dependable service at a reasonable cost. It cannot guarantee
service continuity, however, and provides service in accordance with standards set forth in its
Electric Tariff. Some Customers may have equipment which cannot tolerate an occasional
interruption. They may wish to invest in a standby system which will supply uninterrupted power
upon failure of FPL's service, or when transient interruptions occur. Some computer based
systems are sensitive to short voltage spikes or dips on the normal 60 hertz voltage wave. Very
short interruptions caused by a fast opening and closing of an FPL circuit breaker may also affect
these systems. These transients are unavoidable on a distribution system serving many and
varied customer loads and subject to the natural elements. The Customer should consider these
conditions as part of his electric service environment. He should choose equipment which can
operate satisfactorily in this environment or purchase suitable power conditioning equipment such
as an uninterruptible power supply.
O. Conservation Programs
FPL offers conservation incentive programs to help customers reduce energy costs. While
helping customers manage electricity more efficiently, FPL reduces the purchase of expensive
fuel oil and delays power plant construction, thus reducing costs. Customers can obtain
conservation incentive information by calling the phone number listed on their electric bill.

DATE

P. Contacting FPL
FPL Customer Service may be contacted 24 hours a day by calling the number on the bottom of
your bill or the number in your local phone book. Contact regarding new construction and
changes in service requirements (service changes) should be directed to your local FPL
Construction Service Planning Office which is open during normal business hours. The following
pages list FPL's Construction Service Planning Offices and the approximate areas they serve.

Delivery Assurance – III. SERVICE PROVISIONS III: 1 of 12

Design Support
III. SERVICE PROVISIONS
A. Standard Service
FPL's standard service is that supplied by overhead lines, with wood poles, to FPL's designated
point of delivery, at the standard voltages specified below. All service is alternating current at 60
hertz (60 cycles per second). All voltages and frequencies mentioned are nominal values.
Single phase, three wire 120/240 volt service is furnished for ordinary lighting loads, household
equipment, small appliances, and motors. This voltage is standard throughout FPL's service area
for residences and for commercial and industrial applications where three phase service is not
required, in the opinion of FPL, or available. Three phase service will be provided where available,
or where in the opinion of FPL, the use of single phase is impractical. This, as with all service, is
subject to the line extension provisions of section III.C. Devices to convert single phase to three
phase can be obtained for a wide range of three phase motors, therefore availability of three phase
service for smaller motors should be discussed in advance with FPL. A neutral conductor de-rated
no more than 30% from the service conductor ampacity is required for all services.
Voltages Under 600V - In most locations, FPL's overhead secondary distribution system
provides service at the following standard voltages:
- Single phase, 120 volt, two wire
- Single phase, 480 volt, two wire (street lighting)
- Single phase, 120/240 volt, three wire
- Single phase, 240/480 volt, three wire
In some locations, FPL's system is able to provide service at the following voltages:
- Three phase, 120/240 volt, four-wire delta
- Three phase, 120/208 volt, four wire wye
- Single phase, 120/208 volt, three wire (from a three phase, four wire wye system)
- Three phase, 277/480 volt, four wire wye
120/240 volt, four-wire delta is determined by FPL to be the standard 3 phase voltage for loads
in which individual motor sizes are greater than or equal to 7.5 hp (but not exceeding 20 hp),
or, the 3 phase "demand" load does not exceed 75 KVA, or, the "total" demand load does not
exceed 150 KVA, and the use of single phase, in the opinion of FPL, is impractical. When the
Customer desires three phase, 120/208 or 277/480 volt will be considered the standard voltage
only where, in the opinion of FPL, three phase service is required, and 120/240 volt delta
service is not, in the opinion of FPL, the standard voltage for the load being served, unless
otherwise mutually advantageous to both FPL and the Customer.
Voltages Over 600V - Service requirements for installations requiring higher distribution
voltages (primary voltages) are subject to special negotiation between the Customer and FPL.
Customers accepting primary voltage will provide, through ownership or rental, all distribution
facilities required beyond the metered point, and, all facilities required for reducing or increasing
the FPL supplied voltage to any other voltage which he may require.
If the customer will be leasing transformers from FPL for use beyond the metered point, in
addition to the voltages under 600V listed above, the following voltages over 600V may be
available:
- Single phase, 2400/4160 volt* - Three phase, 2400/4160 volt grounded wye
- Single phase, 7620/13,200 volt** - Three phase, 7620/13,200 volt grounded wye
- Single phase, 13,200/22,860 volt*** - Three phase, 13,200/22,860 volt grounded wye
(For connection phase to neutral to a grounded wye system rated: *2400/4160 volts;
**7,620/13,200 volts; ***13,200/22,860 volts)

DATE


Design Support
Typically, where the customer requests service considered by FPL to be non-standard for the
load being served, the Customer will bear the additional expense as a CIAC.
B. Point of Delivery
The point of delivery is defined as that location where FPL's electric facilities connect to those of
the Customer's. FPL will give considerable weight to the Customer's preference, but shall reserve
the right to designate this location. Should the Customer request a location other than that
designated by FPL, and FPL approves, the Customer shall be responsible for all additional costs
to extend beyond FPL's designated point.
C. Extension of FPL's Electric Facilities

1. General - Amounts due as Contributions In Aid of Construction (CIAC) from customers who
require extensions or "upgrades" of distribution facilities are calculated in accordance with
Florida Administrative Code (FAC) Section 25-6.064 and FPL's Tariff (General Rules and
Regulations paragraph 2.2).
2. Overhead Extensions - FPL extends or upgrades its overhead facilities at no charge if:
a. the facilities being built are for standard service for the load being served, and
b. FPL's expenditure is supported by the Estimated Annual base rate Revenue (EAR)
Other factors that may affect the approval of the extension include:
- The potential of other customers to be served from the same extension or addition within
a five year period
- The permanency of the installation being served
- The expected completion date of the project
- The need to improve facilities at or near the area to be served such that the line
extension can be installed
- Issuance of a construction permit
- Examination of architectural plans
A nonrefundable Contribution in Aid of Construction (CIAC) will be required for any overhead
extension where the total estimated job cost for the extension or upgrade (excluding service
drops and meters) required to provide standard service, as determined by FPL, exceeds four
(4) times the estimated annual incremental base rate revenue (EAR). This CIAC amount is
equal to the difference between that estimated total job cost (excluding service drops and
meters) and four (4) times the EAR. For upgrade of facilities, the customer is also charged for
the Net Book Value of the existing facilities removed and receives a credit for salvageable
items. If the customer requests facilities that are not typically required, in the opinion of FPL, to
serve the load, a CIAC in addition to the above difference will also be required. This additional
amount is equal to the difference (including service drops and meters) between FPL's
estimated cost to provide the standard service and the estimated cost of the non-standard
service requested by the Customer.
3. Underground Extensions - Where, in FPL's opinion, overhead distribution facilities are
typically provided to serve the load for which service is requested, but underground is provided
instead (due to Customer request or the requirement of a governmental agency), a CIAC is
required which is equal to the difference between the total estimated cost to provide the
overhead standard service and the total estimated cost of the underground. This differential
cost includes all service drops and meters.

DATE
02-14-20

Design Support
Furthermore, if the cost of the overhead system for standard service could not have been
supported by estimated incremental base rate revenue, the Customer would pay an additional
CIAC amount equal to the difference between that total estimated job cost (excluding service
drops and meters) and four (4) times the EAR.
D. Residential Service (under 600v)
A single, one phase, 120/240 volt, three wire overhead service drop per lot is the standard service
offered by FPL to residential customers. Excluding any extension charges that might apply (section
III.C.2) this service is offered at no charge to FPL's designated point of delivery. Three phase
service may be available but only under special circumstances and CIAC charges might apply.
FPL will provide residential underground electric service upon request when the Customer or
developer pays the difference between the estimated cost of underground and the estimated cost
of overhead facilities, as defined in FPL's General Rules and Regulations for Electric Service and
Underground Residential Tariff. The charges quoted in the Tariff are based on conditions which
permit employment of rapid construction techniques. This Tariff applies to all residential customers,
including those where underground is required by local ordinance.
Underground residential service is offered under the provisions of the Residential Tariff for:
- New subdivisions, known as URD (Underground Residential Distribution) Subdivisions

- New underground service laterals from overhead systems
- Replacement of existing overhead and underground service laterals
- New multiple occupancy residential buildings
1. Underground Service for New Residential Subdivisions (Less than 5 units per building)
When requested, FPL will provide underground distribution facilities in accordance with its
standard practices, in (a) recognized new residential subdivisions of five or more building lots
and (b) tracts of land upon where five or more separate dwelling units are to be located.
Developers of new URD subdivisions are to contact FPL before the platting process so
easements can be included in the plat. Survey work associated with producing legal
descriptions of such easements for FPL facilities is to be completed by the developer's surveyor
where needed. Early notice also enables FPL to design an efficient URD system and consider
preferences the developer may have concerning the location of FPL facilities.
FPL will normally provide the trench and backfill for all its underground distribution facilities,
including service laterals. The Customer will provide and install the service entrance conduit
(downpipe), the meter socket, and the wiring from the meter socket to the service entrance
equipment (Fig. IV-11a,b). If the Customer wants to trench, backfill, and install the FPL
provided conduit, and FPL agrees, a credit will be applied towards the contribution amount, up
to the amount of the charges that are due.
The charges for underground service are based upon arrangements that will permit serving the
subdivision's underground distribution system from overhead feeder mains. If feeder mains
are deemed necessary by FPL to provide and/or maintain adequate service and are required
to be installed underground by the Applicant or a governmental agency, the Applicant shall pay
FPL the difference between the cost of such underground feeder mains and the cost of
equivalent overhead feeder mains.
Tariff charges for underground service to new residential subdivisions are based on timely and
reasonably full use of the land being developed. Where FPL is required to construct under-
ground facilities through a section or sections of the development where full use of facilities, as
determined by FPL, may not be realized for at least two years, FPL may require a deposit

DATE


Design Support
before construction commences. This deposit, to guarantee performance, will be based on the
estimated total cost of such facilities. The amount of the deposit, without interest, in excess of
any differential charges for underground service will be returned to the applicant on a pro rata
basis at quarterly intervals on the basis of utilization. Any portion remaining un-refunded after
five years from the date FPL is first ready to render service from the extension will be retained
by FPL.
2. Underground Service from an Overhead System to New Residential Buildings

(Less than 5 units per building)
FPL will normally provide the trench and backfill, and provide and install the PVC conduit and
service lateral conductors. The Customer will provide and install the service entrance conduit
(downpipe), provide and install the meter socket and the wiring from the meter socket to the
service entrance equipment (Fig. IV-11a,b). If the Customer requests to trench and backfill,
and install the FPL provided conduit, and FPL agrees, a credit will be applied towards the CIAC
amount, up to the amount of the charges that are due.
If the customer prefers to install, own, and maintain the underground service lateral, FPL will
install a handhole at the base of the pole, at the charge specified in the tariff. Customer risers
are not permitted to be attached to FPL or telephone company poles.
3. Replacement of Existing Overhead and Underground Residential Service Laterals
If a residential customer wishes to replace an existing FPL overhead service drop with an
underground service lateral, or to relocate an existing FPL underground service lateral, or to
replace a customer owned underground service lateral, FPL will provide the underground
service lateral according to the terms, provisions, and charges specified in the tariff.
The Customer shall provide the trench and backfill, install the FPL provided PVC, and provide
all restoration. The trench shall be deep enough to provide 24" of cover (36" maximum) over
FPL's service lateral. The customer shall also provide and install the downpipe from the meter
socket, replace the meter socket if necessary, and perform all rework necessary to
accommodate the new service lateral (Fig. IV-11a,b). If requested by the Customer, and FPL
approves, FPL may provide the trench and backfill and install the conduit, but the Customer
shall pay for this work based on a specific cost estimate. In either case, FPL will provide, install,
and connect the service lateral cable from the secondary source to the meter socket.
4. Mobile Home and Recreational Vehicle (RV) Parks

Individual electric metering by the utility is required for each separate occupancy unit (where
the intent is to establish permanent residency) in trailer, mobile home and recreational vehicle
(RV) parks for which construction was commenced after January 1, 1981.
FPL will supply service to these individual units provided the service entrances are properly
wired and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local building codes,
and the wiring is approved by the local inspector.
Overhead service typically requires no CIAC provided the estimated revenue supports the
estimated cost of any extension that might be required (section III.C). Underground service
requires CIAC in accordance with FPL's Tariff.
FPL's overhead service drop or buried service lateral may not terminate directly on a mobile
home or recreational vehicle, but shall run to a pole or pedestal mounted service entrance
provided by the Customer. The customer's service equipment is to be mounted on the load
side of the meter socket. The wiring from the pole or pedestal to the Mobile Home or RV is
also provided and installed by the customer.

DATE
02-14-20

Design Support
For overhead service, a treated pole or equivalent shall be furnished to provide adequate
support and elevation for FPL's service drop. Overhead service drops shall have 16 feet of
clearance crossing over areas subject to mobile home or recreational vehicle movement. Other
clearances are specified in section IV.B and Fig. IV-5.
If service is underground, an approved pedestal shall be furnished to support and protect FPL's
cable and meter (Fig. IV-13a,b,c). If the Customer wishes to furnish and use a pedestal which
combines the service equipment and the meter socket, he may do so only if he uses equipment
on FPL's approved list. It shall be the Customer's responsibility to obtain authorization from
FPL before any commitments are made to use this equipment at a particular location. There
will be no charge to FPL.
Where individual electric metering is required, it is often advantageous for the Customer to
group multiple meter sockets and service equipment on a single pole or pedestal (Fig. IV-13c).
Where overhead service is provided, this is aesthetically advantageous in that the number of
aerial service drops is minimized. Where underground service is provided, this reduces the
CIAC amount required by FPL.
In those parks or areas of parks designated for overnight occupancy (where the intended use
is not for purposes of permanent residency), individual electric metering is not required, nor
provided by FPL. In these cases, electric consumption is considered commercial use, and FPL
will provide a single point of service (or multiple points if deemed necessary or appropriate by
FPL) with each point individually metered. Electric wiring from these points to the individual
units is the responsibility of the Customer.
5. Multiple Occupancy Buildings (5 Units or more per building)

For new residential multiple occupancy buildings (five or more dwelling units), the Customer
may request underground service. FPL will provide underground facilities at or near the
building at no cost to the Customer provided FPL is allowed to build its distribution facilities in
the most economic and efficient manner. If FPL determines a padmounted transformer is
necessary, the transformer will be the point of delivery, to which point the Customer will install
(and FPL will connect) his cables. The customer will furnish the transformer pad location per
FPL pad specifications (section V.A). The location will typically lie between FPL's source of
power and the portion of the building closest to the available source.
Should a point of delivery not preferred by FPL be desired by the Customer, a CIAC will be
required to cover any additional cost that might be incurred. Should the Customer provide the
suitable location but FPL elects to place its transformer equipment elsewhere, FPL may elect
to install its buried secondary conductors to an FPL owned handhole. In this case, the handhole
would be the point of delivery.
The Customer shall extend his building service to FPL's designated point of delivery regardless
of the distance from Customer's switchgear.
When feeder mains on tracts of land upon which multiple occupancy buildings will be
constructed are deemed necessary by FPL to provide and/or maintain adequate service, and
underground installation is requested by the Customer or required by a governmental agency,
the Customer shall contribute the difference between the cost of underground and the cost of
overhead feeder mains. There will typically be no contribution required from the Customer with
respect to construction of underground distribution facilities to multiple occupancy dwellings
other than feeder mains as long as FPL is free to construct such extensions in the most
economic manner, and reasonable full use is made of the tract of land upon which the
multiple-occupancy residential buildings will be constructed. Other conditions may require
special considerations or arrangements.

DATE


Design Support
6. High-Rise Buildings (Residential, Commercial, or Mixed Use)

General - Standard service to high rise buildings is from a single main vault provided by the
Customer, at ground level. If solid bus is used to carry power from the vault to the meter rooms,
the bus from the main vault to the meter rooms must be “feeder bus” or “riser bus”. “Plug bus”
is not allowed prior to the meter centers due to possible current diversion. The Customer may
request that FPL extend primary service vertically to single phase transformer vaults located at
intervals in the building. This "stacked" vault option is available only if certain criteria are met,
FPL agrees, and local codes and inspecting authorities allow this type of construction.
Economic considerations to FPL and the Customer are key factors in deciding whether to use
stacked vaults. If stacked vaults are requested, and FPL approves, the Customer will be
required to contribute the differential cost. That cost is the difference between the estimated
cost of a single main vault and the estimated cost of the multiple vaults.
Criteria for Single Main Vaults:
The load must exceed the following capability or CIAC will apply:
- 1000 KVA for 120/208V loop or radial type padmounted transformers
- 1000 KVA for 277/480V loop type padmounted transformers
- 2500 KVA for 277/480V radial type padmounted transformers
Criteria for Stacked Vaults:
- The units shall be metered according to the requirements set forth in Florida
Administrative Code 25-6.049
- Single phase vaults shall be 120/240V and the capacity of the vault shall not exceed 167
KVA
- All switching equipment and/or throwover equipment shall be located in the ground floor
main vault
- All critical loads shall be served from the ground floor main vault
- At least 6 stacked vaults shall be required, as determined by FPL, to serve the load
- The Customer shall adhere strictly to FPL's specifications concerning vault and duct
construction (section V.C)
The Main Vault - The same specifications that apply to any other grade level vault apply also
to the main vault of a high-rise, stacked vault distribution system (section V.B). FPL will furnish
separate specifications for the main vault.
Agreement to Proceed - The Customer shall secure agreement from FPL on the use of
stacked vaults in the early design stages. When this agreement has been reached, the vaults
should be physically located near the center of the load they will serve. Single phase vaults will
be spaced 3 floors apart (i.e. – floor 3, 6, 9, 12, etc.) serving the floor containing the vault and
the floors immediately below and above the vault.
The Customer shall obtain engineering information from FPL as to how much space will be
needed for FPL's electrical equipment. The Customer should obtain FPL's detailed vault
specifications before completion of the design stage.

DATE

E. Commercial Service (under 600v)

For commercial Customers whose load is such that, if located in an overhead area it could be
served by one (or bank of) single phase aerial transformer(s) rated 100 kVA or less (as determined
by FPL), standard service is considered by FPL to be overhead (with wood poles), at the standard
voltages specified in section III.A, to the FPL designated point of delivery.
Commercial Underground Service
For loads where overhead service is considered standard by FPL, and underground service is
either requested by the customer or required by local governmental agency, a CIAC equal to the
difference between the estimated cost of underground and the estimated cost of overhead will be
required. These differential charges are specified in FPL's Underground Commercial Distribution
Tariff, providing the service requested is at the standard voltage, in the opinion of FPL, for
the load being served. Special situations or requests for non-standard voltage may require
specific cost estimates. Where EAR does not support the estimated cost of an FPL line extension,
additional CIAC will be required (section III.C).
a. Underground Service to Small Commercial Loads
In overhead areas where the meter socket is located at least 5 feet but not more than 100 feet
from the utility pole, and where the Customer's main line switch is no more than 60 Amps for a
two-wire 120 volt or 125 Amps for a three-wire 120/240 volt service, FPL will install the
underground service to the meter socket if the Customer prefers (typically, this is the only
situation FPL will install underground service conductor to a commercial Customer's meter
socket, unless otherwise mutually advantageous to both the Customer and FPL). A CIAC is
required. The Customer provides the trench and backfill (24" minimum cover); the 2" PVC
conduit from the meter socket (see Fig. IV-11a,b) to the base of the pole (24" radius 90o 2"
PVC bend at base of pole); all restoration, easements and permits.
Otherwise, the customer can install his underground service conductors to an FPL handhole at
the base of the pole (where FPL will connect its conductors to the Customer's), where CIAC
also applies; or, the customer can elect to receive overhead service. Customer owned risers
for commercial electric service are not permitted on FPL or Telephone Company poles.
Where FPL's secondary source is "underground" (i.e. vault, padmounted transformer, or
handhole), the customer provides and installs the service conductors, and FPL connects those
conductors at that secondary source. If that underground secondary source was existing
before the request for service, no CIAC would typically be required.
b. Underground Service to Moderate Commercial Loads
In overhead areas where, in the opinion of FPL, the load is such that secondary voltage can
be provided at an overhead source, FPL will provide secondary conductors to a handhole at
the base of the pole where FPL will connect to the Customer's underground conductors. If a
transformer (or transformers) must be hung to make this secondary voltage available, FPL will
consider installing underground primary cable to a padmounted transformer, where FPL will
connect to the Customer's underground conductors. In either case, CIAC applies.
If either of these options is not desirable, the customer can elect to receive overhead service.
Customer owned risers for commercial electric service are not permitted on FPL or
Telephone Company poles.
Where FPL's secondary source is "underground" (i.e. vault, padmounted transformer, or
handhole), the customer provides and installs the service conductors, and FPL connects those
conductors at the secondary source. If that underground secondary source was existing before
the request for service, no CIAC would typically be required.

DATE


Design Support
c. Underground Service to Large Commercial Loads

If the load is such that, if located in an overhead area it could not be served by one (or bank
of) single phase aerial transformer(s) rated 100 kVA or less, in the opinion of FPL, FPL's
standard service then would consist of underground primary cables (from an overhead source
determined by FPL) to a radial padmounted transformer. CIAC would typically not be required
if the cost of an equivalent overhead line extension is justified (section III.C), but would be
required for cases including, but not limited to; radials that cannot originate from an overhead
source where, for instance, a pad mounted switch cabinet must be installed; "loop" systems;
underground primary conductors that do not originate at an overhead source at FPL's preferred
location; points of delivery requested beyond those designated by FPL; etc.
For larger loads exceeding 2500 KVA and other special circumstances, FPL's standard service
consists of underground primary cables from an overhead source (determined by FPL) to a
radial vault. The CIAC provisions stated in the preceding paragraph apply to vaults, as well.
For padmounted transformer and vault specifications, refer to section V.
d. Automatic Throwover Facilities to Large Commercial Loads

Throwover facilities enable a customer’s primary electrical feed to be switched from a preferred
source to an emergency source, using automatic FPL switching equipment. Throwover facilities
are provided at no charge only in FPL designated underground areas where for physical,
operating, or economic reasons, an underground throwover system is in the collective best
interest of FPL and its customers.
In non-designated underground areas, throwover facilities may be provided, although CIAC
would apply. If a throwover system is feasible, the CIAC would include, but not be limited to,
the estimated cost of all additional equipment required for operation of the throwover system
and the estimated cost of the additional emergency feeder to the customer’s location. New
installations with a demand load of at least 500 KVA will be granted a credit, not to exceed the
amount of CIAC required, equal to their first year’s annual base rate revenue. Existing
customers increasing their demand load at least 500 KVA will be granted a credit, not to exceed
the amount of CIAC required, equal to their first year’s annual base rate revenue.
The type of throwover system equipment to be installed (ATS Powell-Esco vs. Vac-Pac) is
the decision of FPL. If the customer specifically requests a more expensive option than
required for the load being served, the additional cost is borne as CIAC.
For additional information concerning throwover service, contact you local construction
representative.
e. Loop service to Large Commercial Loads
Loop service can be provided in lieu of throwover based on the criteria stated in section (d)
above. Loop service may be more economical when there is only one feeder (source)
available.
Examples of Loop:
Some typical examples of loop service include but are not limited to, strip shopping centers,
building supply chains, grocery stores, large hotels, outdoor malls, etc.
For additional information concerning loop service, contact you local construction
representative.
F. Underground Service Connections in the City of Miami Network Area

DATE
02-14-20

Design Support
Service voltage in the City of Miami Downtown Network Grid is four wire, three phase wye, 120/208
volts. When other voltages are desired, the Customer is requested to contact FPL to determine
their availability. Network service is only available from the existing network grid, new secondary
networks are not being constructed.
Service may be available from the underground street secondary mains, or from a vault, depending
on the magnitude of the load involved.
For service from the secondary mains, the Customer will provide and install, at the Customer's
expense, the conduit and cables from the Customer's main switch or FPL's metering devices to the
point of delivery. The point of delivery will be FPL's manhole, pullbox or vault located at or near the
property line, as designated by FPL. FPL will connect the Customer's secondary cable to FPL's
facilities.
FPL may, where it is mutually advantageous, elect to extend primary circuits into the Customer's
property and serve the immediate and adjoining premises from a standard (non-networked)
transformer vault located on the Customer's property. See section V.
G. Temporary/Construction Service
1. General
Temporary/construction service is usually a limited term service to installations such as fairs,
exhibitions, construction projects, displays and similar projects. Contact FPL regarding availability
and applicable installation and removal charges before installing the temporary facility. These
nonrefundable charges are paid in advance of FPL's construction.
Where the Customer's service entrance cable does not exceed 200 ampere capacity, the
nonrefundable flat charge is specified in FPL's Tariff (Sheet No. 4.030). Larger services may
require additional charges. For overhead service, the charge covers installation and removal of
an overhead service and meter, at an existing secondary source. For an underground service, the
charge covers connecting and disconnecting the Customer's service cable to FPL's existing
underground facilities, including installation and removal of the meter. Contact FPL to determine
current charges and availability of temporary/construction service.
Service may be single phase or three phase, 60 hertz, at the available standard secondary
distribution voltage. This service is available only when FPL has existing capacity in lines,
transformers and other equipment at the requested point of delivery.
For overhead temporary service, the Customer shall provide a sturdy and adequate service drop
support, complete with service entrance and FPL approved meter enclosure, to accommodate
FPL's service drop and meter (Fig. IV-1). In an underground area, a pedestal with FPL approved
meter socket shall be provided to accommodate the meter, and the Customer's service cable shall
be installed up to FPL's facilities (Fig. IV-2). An adequate amount of service cable shall be left
available for FPL crews to pull into the handhole or transformer for connection. Note: In
underground residential distribution (URD) areas, handholes will not be installed by FPL
for the sole purpose of providing temporary service.
If specific electrical service other than that stated above is required, FPL, at the Customer's
request, will determine its feasibility and may provide such service based on the estimated cost of
installing and removing such additional electrical equipment. This estimated cost is payable in
advance to FPL and will be subject to adjustment or refund based on the actual costs. The
additional service may be overhead or underground, depending on circumstances at the particular
location, as determined by FPL.

DATE


Design Support
All temporary/construction services shall be subject to all of the applicable Rules, Regulations and
Tariff charges of FPL, including service charges. The energy used by the temporary service will
be billed monthly under the appropriate rate schedule applicable to commercial and industrial type
installations.
The Customer's installation shall satisfy all the requirements of the National Electrical Code and
other authorities having jurisdiction.
2. Reduced Cost Alternatives
a. TOP
The TOP (temporary overhead permanent) alternative is available for residential and small
commercial customers where the permanent FPL approved meter socket, meter, and
weatherhead are configured such that they can be used for temporary service. Upon
receipt of the temporary inspection, FPL installs the permanent service to the meter
socket, and this service is used for construction purposes until the Certificate of
Occupancy is obtained. Since no additional work is required by FPL for this type service,
no additional construction charges are required, provided that all of the FPL construction
work can be performed in a single field visit. However, check with your local authorities
first. Not all inspectors allow this alternative.
b. TUG
The TUG (temporary underground) alternative is available for underground residential
services where the permanent FPL approved meter socket, meter, and downpipe are
configured such that they can be used for temporary service. Upon receipt of the
temporary inspection, FPL installs the permanent service to the meter socket, and this
service is used for construction purposes until the Certificate of Occupancy is obtained.
Since no additional work is required by FPL for this type service, no additional construction
charges (other than the cost of the permanent underground service itself) are required,
provided that all of the FPL construction work can be performed in a single field visit.
However, check with your local authorities first. Not all inspectors allow this alternative.
One variation of the TUG involves building a portion of the permanent wall and mounting
the permanent meter socket, down pipe and customer switch panel on it. The main line
switch and breakers for a 120V duplex GFCI receptacle and a 50A 230V receptacle are
mounted in the panel with the receptacles mounted below the panel. A minimum 6 mil
clear plastic sheet is mounted over the panel to protect it from the weather and a sticker
warning of live electrical is placed on the panel. Upon receipt of the Customer's
contribution for the permanent underground service, the application for service and the
inspection, FPL will install the permanent underground service and meter, and the
receptacles mentioned above are used for construction power.
H. Unauthorized Connections & Disconnections

All connections of the Customer's wiring to that of FPL, all disconnects of service entrance
conductors, all meter removals and installations and all breaking of FPL meter equipment seals
shall be made only by FPL, except as allowed in Section III.I of these standards.
Any other connection or disconnection of FPL's service by the Customer or his agent is prohibited.
If done with the intent to injure or defraud, it is punishable by law. Violators will be prosecuted.
I. Change in Service Requirements (Service Changes)

DATE
02-14-20

Design Support
The Customer will normally own all the service facilities on his side of the point of delivery; i.e., the
point where FPL's wires carrying the voltage of supply are to join the Customer's wires, except for
the meters which will be owned by FPL.
The Customer shall notify FPL, in advance, when a change in service (service change) is being
considered to accommodate provisions that service and metering facilities remain adequate.
Care must be taken when planning the service change to ensure the existing FPL owned
conductors will be long enough to reach the new service equipment. If the FPL service must be
replaced in order to reach the new service equipment, the customer may be responsible for the
cost of the service replacement.
When a service change requires disconnection of FPL's service, the customer shall request a
disconnect/reconnect from FPL. The Customer shall establish an advance appointment to ensure
proper coordination between his electrical contractor and FPL crews who will disconnect the service
and later reconnect after an inspection (when required by local authorities) is received.
Exception:
FPL normally performs both the disconnect and the reconnect. In certain cases however, the
Customer's licensed and qualified electrical contractor is allowed, at his option, but only when
approved by FPL, to perform the disconnect on overhead services only, when the following
criteria are met:
- The Customer shall be a residential or small commercial facility with a main line switch rating
of 300 Amps or less, served by an FPL single phase overhead service. No three phase
service shall be disconnected by an electrical contractor. FPL must disconnect all three
phase services to ensure that proper phase rotation is maintained.
- FPL service attachment point at the building or structure shall remain intact. No service shall
be removed from the attachment point or the attachment point altered in any way.
- The meter socket(s) must not have an FPL locking device installed.
- If multiple meters are involved, the electrician shall "mark" each meter and socket.
- Only a licensed and qualified electrical contractor may perform the disconnect function and
he shall schedule a reconnect date (appointment) with FPL before disconnecting the service.
If the appointment is not made before the disconnect, FPL will not be responsible for a same
day reconnect.
- The service shall be cut on the load side of FPL's connection to the customer's service
conductors. No FPL conductors are to be cut.
- The service shall be disconnected before removing the meter(s). No meter is to be removed
from an energized meter socket.
- FPL personnel only are to perform the reconnect, and only after an inspection (if required by
the local authority) has been received. Electrical contractors are not allowed to reconnect
the service.
- The decision to perform this type of disconnect is entirely voluntary for the electrical contractor
and allows work to commence without having to wait for FPL to disconnect the service.
However, the electrical contractor still has the option of FPL performing the disconnect if he
prefers.
J. Service to Special Equipment

The operation of electric furnaces, electric dredges and draglines, large motors and other heavy
utilization equipment, if served from FPL's distribution system, might interfere with service to other
Customers. Contact FPL concerning the requirements for furnishing this type of service. Refer to
Section IX.

DATE


Design Support
K. Service to Boat Facilities

FPL electric service to marinas and private docks will be to a designated point of delivery on shore.
The Customer shall bring his service conductors to the point of delivery (such as a handhole,
pedestal, junction box, or padmounted transformer). FPL will not extend its conductors onto
marinas or docks.
The Customer should install his FPL-approved meter sockets so as not to be a hazard to people
on the dock and they shall be accessible for meter maintenance and monthly readings. The socket
shall be mounted such that the meter will face the dock and not the open water and not represent
a protrusion hazard.
L. 2 wire, 480V Metered Service
On all self-contained, metered installations (320 amperes or less) where the service voltage is 480V
to ground (2 wire), a non-automatic disconnect device shall be provided and installed by the
Customer on the line side of each individual meter. For meter centers, there shall be one
disconnect device on the line side of each meter. The disconnect device shall be lockable or
sealable by FPL and adjacent to each meter. The Customer-owned non-automatic (no over current
protection) disconnect device ampacity must meet all NEC Guidelines. A lever bypass equipped
meter enclosure is required and shall be selected from the Approved Meter Equipment Enclosure
List.

Delivery Assurance – IV. SERVICE and METER CONNECTIONS IV: 1 of 24

Design Support
IV. SERVICE and METER CONNECTIONS

A. Service Equipment
1. General
The Customer should consult FPL at an early stage to verify availability of service (section II.C)
and to determine the FPL designated point of delivery (section III.B). Contact with FPL should
be made before the purchase of equipment and its installation. This FPL approval is not a
substitute for inspection and approval by the local electrical inspection authority. FPL assumes
no responsibility for the Customer's wiring installation. Upon request, FPL will inform the
Customer of available short circuit currents.
The Customer shall provide, install, own, and maintain all service entrance conductors, service
equipment, and metering equipment cabinets (section VI). The service equipment usually
consists of a circuit breaker or switch and fuses, and their accessories, located near the point of
entrance of the supply conductors to the buildings or otherwise defined area. It is intended to be
the main control and means of cutoff of the supply.
FPL will provide, install, own and maintain adequate meters (and other appurtenant equipment as
needed) to measure the electrical quantities required to apply its rate schedules and contracts.
The Customer may choose the type of service equipment he prefers, consistent with local
building codes and the National Electrical Code (NEC). It shall be able to successfully interrupt
the maximum fault current available at its location. Where load growth is possible, FPL
recommends that the capacity of service entrance conductors and service equipment be greater
than the minimum requirements of the NEC or other local codes. FPL encourages residential
Customers to install a service entrance with a capacity of at least 150 amperes for average
homes and more in the case of larger homes.
Service entrance equipment shall be in a location which is accessible and not likely to become
obstructed.
Meters shall not be located in the median of divided roads or highways.
The customer’s service conductors shall be continuous from the point of delivery to the metering
equipment. If splice boxes, pull boxes, troughs, or other such items are located in the service run,
they shall provide a means of sealing by FPL with standard company meter seals. Conductors
installed in raceways shall comply with NEC Article 300.3.
The customer’s service conductors shall be marked (tagged) at the source with the location
served. See Fig. IV-14 for tagging details. The customer service cables are to be installed as a
set per conduit (i.e. 3 phase service A, B, C, N in one conduit) and marked accordingly to identity
cable leg i.e. red, white and blue.
No fuses should be installed at any point in the grounded neutral conductor of the service
entrance.
No resistor or reactor or other similar fault current limiting device shall be installed in the neutral or
the phase conductors of the service entrance without the approval of FPL.
Where customer owned stepdown transformers are required they will be installed on the load side
of the meters.
Where permitted by applicable codes, the service equipment will be on the load side of the
meters except that if the service is fed from the City of Miami Downtown Network Grid, the service
equipment will precede the meter.
A main disconnecting switch may be ahead of the meters when more than six meters are
grouped (Fig. IV-12b). This is because the NEC requires a main disconnect switch where it

DATE
10-09-19

Design Support
would otherwise be necessary to operate more than six switches to completely disconnect the
building service.
When installed ahead of the meters, the door of the main switch shall be sealable in both the "on"
and "off" positions. The handle shall be sealable in the "off" position.
A minimum horizontal separation of 3 feet shall be maintained between natural gas service
equipment (vented regulators) and electric metering or termination equipment. Transformers
shall have a minimum separation of 5 feet from natural gas service equipment. A minimum
separation of 5’ shall be maintained between electric metering or termination equipment and
liquid petroleum facilities on site but not filled on site. If the liquid petroleum facilities are filled
on site the minimum separation is 10 feet.
All commercial installations and all residential three phase installations must contain lever bypass,
jaw tension/release socket blocks with the exception of small (120V or 120/240V, with 100 amp
meter enclosure), non-critical loads such as:
 Lighted signs and billboards
 Temporary construction poles and service to construction trailers
 Irrigation pumps
 Residential detached garages
 Gate openers
 Barns
 Apartment / Condo house meters
 Bus stops
 Street lighting
The use of a Metallic fishtape to pull service conductors into FPL owned equipment is not
allowed.
2. Ampere Rating
a. Residential
The rating of the service entrance equipment shall satisfy the general requirements stated above,
the NEC and local building codes. Article 230 of the NEC states that the minimum rating for a
one family dwelling with six or more two-wire branch circuits, or an initial computed load of 10 kVA
or more is 100 ampere, three-wire. For dwelling units with less load, as computed in accordance
with NEC guidelines, the minimum may be 60 ampere, three wire if approved by the inspecting
authority. In very special cases where the load is only one or two two-wire branch circuits, the
service disconnecting means may have a rating of no less than 15 amperes or 30 amperes,
respectively, if approved by the inspecting authority.
As stated previously, FPL recommends that the service entrance have more capacity than the
minimum required by the NEC. Local inspecting authorities shall be consulted, since some
locations may have requirements that exceed the minimums.

DATE
10-09-19

Design Support
b. Commercial
The rating of the service equipment for commercial or industrial occupancies will depend on the
connected load, and in most cases, will be specified by the Customer's engineer.
It is important that the requirements be reviewed with FPL at an early date so that a satisfactory
solution as to service voltage and service entrance location can be determined. At this time,
details as to the nature and size load to be served may be given to FPL, if this has not already
been done.
The service equipment should be chosen to satisfy all the requirements of the Customer for the
control of his load and should be consistent with the NEC, local building codes and the rules of
the inspecting authority.
One requirement is that the service equipment shall be able to safely interrupt the maximum fault
current available at its location. Upon request, FPL will supply information which will permit the
maximum available fault current to be determined.
FPL emphasizes that changes in the Customer's load and other loads in the area may require
changes in FPL's system. These changes may increase the available fault current. Allowance
should be made for this possible increase.
c. Service Equipment Rated Below 600 Volts

In those cases where the Customer's ampere demand at these voltages exceeds 600 amperes,
or the Customer's service entrance wire size exceeds 1-800 KCMIL or 2-500 KCMIL conductors,
per phase, FPL will normally require the Customer to furnish a current transformer cabinet and an
instrument transformer rated meter socket, installed ahead of his service equipment. The
Customer will also furnish and install a 1-1/2 inch conduit from the cabinet to the meter socket
(refer to the specifications found in section VI). FPL will provide and perform the current
transformer installation, install the secondary wiring from the current transformer to the meter
socket, and install the meter.
On all self-contained metered installations (320 amperes or less) where the service voltage is
480V to ground (2 wire), a non-automatic disconnect device shall be provided and installed by the
Customer on the line side of each individual meter. The disconnect device shall be lockable or
sealable by FPL and adjacent to each meter. The Customer-owned non-automatic (no over
current protection) disconnect device ampacity must meet all NEC Guidelines. A lever bypass
equipped meter enclosure is required and shall be selected from the Approved Meter Equipment
Enclosure List.
For service disconnecting means rated 1,000 amperes or more used on a solidly grounded
277/480 volt wye service, ground-fault protection shall be provided. This may be omitted, if
approved by the inspecting authority or if the service equipment controls a continuous industrial
process where a non-orderly shutdown would otherwise introduce additional or increased
hazards.
Where for any reason, a main disconnecting switch is required in multi-metered service
installations; it will be on the line side of the meters. The door of this switch box shall be sealable.
No socket or current transformer cabinet will be required ahead of this switch.

DATE
10-09-19

Design Support
d. Service Equipment Rated Over 600 Volts

When the Customer takes service at primary voltage, he shall provide service equipment rated for
the voltage supplied. The service equipment will normally be on the load side of FPL's instrument
transformer metering installation.
The service equipment shall satisfy all the requirements of the NEC, the building code, and the
inspecting authority.
FPL shall be consulted so that the Customer's primary service equipment may be coordinated
with FPL's feeder protection circuit breakers and fuses.
For padmounted primary metering, the customer will either provide a metering cabinet listed on
FPL’s approved enclosure list, or FPL will provide the metering cabinet and bill the customer the
cost. For primary metering in vaults, FPL will provide, own, and maintain the metering cabinet
located inside the vault.
B. Overhead Service
For residential overhead service, the attachment will normally be within ten feet of the corner, on
the side of the building nearest FPL's secondary facilities (Fig. IV-4). The Customer's service
entrance should be installed in such fashion that service drop wires will not cross over buildings,
swimming pools, or adjacent property not owned by the Customer. FPL may provide the
Customer with two copies of an "Electric Service and Meter Location" sketch (FPL form 1453)
confirming the service location (Fig. IV-3).
1. Vertical Clearance to Ground

The point of attachment for service drops not exceeding 150 volts from any conductor to ground
shall allow ten feet of ground clearance to lowest point of sag in the service drop.
Service drops exceeding 150 volts but less than 300 volts from any conductor to ground shall
allow ten & one-half feet of ground clearance to lowest point of sag.
Where the service drop must pass over immediately adjacent driveways or parking areas subject
to truck traffic or if it is within 25 feet of a swimming pool or if the voltage to ground is over 300
volts, additional clearance shall be provided. In these cases a greater attachment height shall be
provided.
The required attachment height will be shown on the "Electric Service & Meter Location" sketch.
It is important the Customer furnish this information to the building contractor and electrician.
2. Clearance from Building Openings

Service conductors shall have a clearance of not less than three feet from windows, doors,
porches, fire escapes or similar openings.
3. Clearance from Swimming Pools

FPL requires a minimum horizontal clearance of 10 feet from its overhead facilities to swimming
pool edges or pool enclosures. Underground facilities require a 5 feet minimum horizontal
clearance from the swimming pool. Additional clearances apply to diving boards and other pool
accessories depending on configuration. Failure to maintain these required clearances will
result in costly relocations. Please contact FPL for any questions regarding clearances prior to
construction of the pool and facilities.

DATE
10-09-19

Design Support
4. Anchorage for Overhead Service Drop Cable or Wires

The Customer shall provide a safe and adequate anchorage for FPL's overhead service drop
conductors at the agreed upon location and height.
FPL will furnish, and the Customer will install, a suitable attachment for the service drop. The
attachment device furnished will vary, to be compatible with the type of building construction (Fig.
IV-6a thru 6c).
FPL WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE TO THE CUSTOMER'S BUILDING OR
WIRING RESULTING FROM FAILURE OF THIS ANCHORAGE.
The point of service drop attachment and its height will be shown on the "Electric Service and
Meter Location" sketch. It should be sufficient to provide all the required clearances as shown in
Fig. IV-5. The location should be accessible from the ground by a ladder.
Where the height of the building would not allow adequate clearance from service drop to ground,
the Customer shall furnish and install a service mast or other approved extension (Fig. IV-6a).
FPL will provide and install the bracket for attaching the service drop to the service mast.
5. Installation of Service Entrance
The service entrance conductors shall be provided and installed by the customer in accordance
with local building codes and the latest NEC. The conductors will extend a minimum of 36 inches
beyond the service weatherhead to permit connection to FPL’s service drop wires. FPL limits the
number of customer conductors per service to three per phase (i.e. - 3 weatherheads with one
conductor per phase; or 2 weatherheads - one with parallel conductors and one with single
conductors; or 1 weatherhead with three conductors per phase where allowed by code). Call your
local new construction office in situations where the load exceeds the capacity of three 750
KCMIL AL or CU conductors per phase.
The service entrance weatherhead shall be above the service drop attachment. If this is
impractical, the weatherhead shall not be farther than 24" from the point of attachment.
Service drop conductors and service entrance conductors will be arranged in a manner that will
prevent water from getting into the service entrance raceway or cable sheath (Fig. IV-6a).
The neutral conductor of the service entrance shall be identified by the Customer.
Wiring of the meter socket shall be as shown in the appropriate sketch of Fig. IV-8.
The service entrance conduit is installed by the Customer from the service weatherhead to the
meter socket or the service entrance equipment, when this precedes the meter. It may be either
exposed on the exterior building wall, or concealed within the structure itself in a permanently
inaccessible location. Condulets (such as LB, LL, LR) shall not be used. Where exposed to the
weather, conduit shall have threaded joints and shall be arranged to drain.
In the case of the service entrance conductors for a three phase, four wire delta service, one of
the ungrounded conductors will have a higher voltage to ground than the other two conductors
(Fig. IV-8, Meter Symbol J). This conductor shall be durably and permanently marked by an
outer finish that is orange in color or by other durable effective means, and landed on the right
side of the meter can. This marking will ensure connection to the proper FPL conductor when the
service is connected.

A. Padmounted Transformer Requirements

Complete requirements are contained in FPL specifications given to Customers for individual projects.
Typical pad mounted transformer requirements include, but are not limited to the following:
The Customer Will:
- provide a transformer pad location per FPL specifications. Transformers should be installed at least 15
feet from doors and windows. If this is unachievable, the absolute minimum distance is 5 feet.
Transformer installations between 5 and 15 feet must be approved by FPL Design and Standards;
- pour and cure the concrete pad according to FPL specifications, or install the FPL supplied pre-cast
pad, for transformers sized 750 KVA and larger;
- bring the service entrance conductors out to the transformer, installed in accordance with National
Electrical Code requirements, leaving adequate cable, as determined by FPL, for FPL to make
connections in the transformer, the number of cables limited as shown below:

- maintain access to FPL to padmounted equipment located on the Customer's property (eight feet of
clearance from the door side and three feet of clearance from other sides from items such as fences,
shrubs and other obstructions are to be maintained by the Customer, as shown in Fig. V-1. FPL will
help plan the Customer's installations of fences, shrubs, etc. near FPL facilities such that they will not
obstruct access or cause damage to FPL's facilities. Where adequate access to FPL facilities is
maintained, faster service restoration is made possible in the event of a power interruption.);
- provide suitable barriers, if specified by FPL, to protect the padmounted transformer and associated
metering equipment from vehicular traffic;
- FPL requires a minimum easement of 10’ for conductor, 10’ x 10’ for pad mount transformers and 20’ x
20’ for switchgear. Additional easement may be required depending on installation, field conditions and
other equipment;
- clear trench route, have to grade, as specified in section II.E;
- conform to the requirements of the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes (approval from
the local inspecting authority shall be provided to FPL before FPL will connect service).
FPL Will:
- provide transformer specifications to the Customer;
- determine if a secondary connection cabinet will be required;
- provide and install the transformer, the concrete pad (if applicable), and the primary cable and conduit.
If only one, single-meter Customer is served (greater than 600 amps), and no future additional meters will
be connected, current transformers may be placed in padmounted transformer before the Customer's
service is tapped to its secondary. This would avoid the need for a current transformer cabinet. However,
the meter socket and connecting conduit shall still be installed by the Customer. The meter socket will not
be mounted on the padmounted transformer. The location of the meter socket will be specified by FPL.

Design Support
VI. METERING EQUIPMENT

A. Equipment Furnished and Installed by FPL
FPL provides and installs, at its expense, adequate metering instruments to measure the electric service
used by the Customer. Usually, only one watt-hour meter per Customer is needed. However, FPL will
furnish whatever metering, in its opinion, is required.
Self-contained socket-based meters will be furnished and installed by FPL when the service current is (100,
200 or 320 amps) and the service voltage is 120- 480 Volts. Self-contained K-Base (Bolt-in) meters will be
furnished and installed by FPL for service current up to 600 amps maximum.
Instrument transformers are provided and installed by FPL when the voltage or current exceeds the rating
of FPL's standard self-contained meter. Generally, current transformers will be used if the service exceeds
480 amps continuous or 600 amps maximum (320 amps for 480V, 2 wire service). Close coordination
between the Customer and FPL is required to ensure these instrument transformers are installed at the
most appropriate time. Current transformer design and improper selection can result in inaccurate
metering.
B. Equipment Furnished, Installed, and Owned by the Customer

All meter sockets (meter enclosures) are to be provided and installed by the Customer and shall be listed
on FPL's approved meter enclosure list.
For commercial, self-contained metering, FPL requires meter sockets with lever by-pass capability to
eliminate service interruptions on meter changes.
All Instrument Transformer (IT) rated metering equipment enclosures are to be provided and installed by
the Customer. These include IT rated meter sockets, wall mounted and weatherhead IT cabinets, and
miscellaneous junction boxes/utility cabinets (Fig. VI-2 thru VI-7). Refer to FPL Specification 6.3.4
Customer Owned Instrument Transformer Cabinets, Equipment Enclosure & Junction Boxes. For
padmounted primary metering, the customer has two options. FPL will provide the metering cabinet and
charge the customer the cost of the cabinet, or the customer will provide a padmounted metering cabinet
found in FPL’s approved meter enclosure list. For primary metering in vaults, FPL will provide, install, and
maintain the primary metering cabinet.
In some cases, the Customer might prefer prefabricated, combination socket and disconnect assemblies
for multiple occupancy buildings (e.g. apartment or condominium buildings, shopping centers, etc.) as
shown in Fig. IV-12b, or pedestal mounted equipment for mobile home parks as shown in Fig. IV-13b.
Such equipment for all three phase and nonresidential installations shall contain lever by-pass, jaw
tension/release socket blocks. It shall be the Customer's responsibility to obtain authorization from FPL to
use this equipment for a particular installation before committing to its use. FPL maintains an approved list
of equipment. Information and specifications on any such special meter equipment not on FPL’s approved
list shall be submitted to FPL for approval before installation. Refer to FPL Specification 6.3.1 Customer
Owned Meter Enclosures for Self-Contained Watt-hour Meters and the Approved Metering Equipment
Enclosure List found in Section VII in this publication.
On all self-contained, metered installations where the service voltage is 480V to ground (320 amperes or
less, 2 wire), a non-automatic disconnect device shall be provided and installed by the Customer on the line
side of each individual meter. For meter centers, there shall be one disconnect device on the line side of
each meter. The disconnect device shall be lockable or sealable by FPL and adjacent to each meter. The
Customer-owned non-automatic (no over current protection) disconnect device ampacity must meet all NEC
Guidelines. A lever bypass equipped meter enclosure is required and shall be selected from the Approved
Meter Equipment Enclosure List.
Meter socket enclosures and CT cabinets shall not be used as raceways for other conductors. Splices of
any type are not allowed inside meter enclosures. The conductor must be continuous. Lugs designed for
DATE
10-23-2019

Design Support
multiple conductors are only allowed on the line side of the meter if the conductors must be paralleled from
the FPL source (i.e. - the ampacity of a single conductor is insufficient to serve the load) and the lugs are
listed for such use. These lugs shall not be used to provide a source for a second meter enclosure (i.e. -
two meter enclosures served from a single service) or to directly connect any customer equipment (i.e.
customer generation system or surge protectors). Lugs designed for multiple conductors are allowed on
the load side of the meter provided the meter can is UL approved to accept parallel lugs, the total load of
the conductors does not exceed the rating of the meter or the service, the lugs have an anti-rotation ridge
and are UL listed for such use.
C. Metering Configurations & Approved Equipment

FPL specifies the metering configuration (See Fig. VI-1) for each service to be metered. FPL also requires
that previously approved enclosures be used for each installation. The Customer is responsible for using
the correct and approved enclosures. Failure to do so may result in delay of service and additional expense.
The list of approved enclosures (current at the time of this publication) is provided in Section VII. If
necessary, the most current list of approved enclosures can be obtained from your local FPL representative
or online at http://www.FPL.com/builder, using the Electric Service Standards link.
D. Location of Metering Equipment
The metering equipment's location will be designated by an FPL representative. The Customer will provide
the meter location free of cost to FPL.
1. Sequence in Service Entrance
Where permitted by Code authorities, the metering equipment will usually precede all service
equipment. Customer owned step-down transformers shall be installed on the load side of the meter.
On the City of Miami Downtown Network Grid only, the service equipment should precede the meter.
2. Located Outdoors
Except where meter rooms are used, all metering installations shall be outdoors, on a vertical wall or
other substantial support where the view from the ground is unobstructed. They should be readily
accessible to FPL at all times so they may be read, inspected, removed or tested with a minimum of
disruption of service to the Customer. The preferable height of the centerline of the meter is five feet,
six inches above ground. The maximum distance shall be six feet and the minimum five feet, except
meter pedestals for mobile homes may have a minimum height of 36".
The meter location should not be affected by a kitchen discharge fan or other vents, or the drain from a
roof gutter or air conditioner, and should be free from vibration. Sockets shall be securely attached to
the building wall, pedestal, metal rack, or other permanent structure, and aligned so that the meter is
both level and plumb (Fig. IV-7). Attachment to temporary structures (except for temporary service) or
structures subject to early deterioration is prohibited.
When the equipment is exposed to vehicular traffic, FPL may require that the metering equipment be
protected by concrete filled 4" steel pipes firmly installed in the ground, similar to those shown in Fig.
V-1.
3. Located Indoors
When meters are located in a meter room, the room should have adequate lighting and contain only
meters and associated equipment, and should remain unlocked so meters are readily accessible. In
unusual cases where an unlocked meter room would impose a severe hardship on the Customer,
arrangements can be made to furnish keys to FPL so the meters will always be accessible to meter
readers. The meter room may then be locked, provided this does not violate any local code or rule.

DATE
10-23-2019

Design Support
The meter room must not be used for storage. The centerline of the meters should be five feet, six
inches above the floor, but when necessary because of grouping may be a maximum of 72" and a
minimum of 22".
4. Flood Elevation Standards

If local ordinances require meters to be located at or above base flood elevation, the Customer is
responsible for providing and maintaining a means of ready access to the meter (for maintenance and
reading by FPL personnel). See Fig. VI-9, page 16 of this section for details. Any additional costs
incurred by FPL for providing special service to meet the Customer's flood insurance requirements shall
be paid by the Customer.
E. Identification of Meters
If a building requires more than one meter, or if the meter is not directly within the boundaries of the premise
served, FPL cannot render service until the meter socket or cabinet and the service equipment have been
properly marked to show plainly the location served and the character of the service (Fig. VI-8). Multiple
meter sockets shall be “rung out” by the electrical contractor and marked with the appropriate unit numbers
before FPL will tap the service and set meters. This marking requirement includes IT rated meter sockets.
These markings by the Customer should be plain and permanent, giving the street number to the door of
the premise served or the symbol appearing on the entrance door when this door does not carry a street
number. The name of the Customer will not suffice for identification. The meter sockets in multi-unit
buildings shall be clearly and durably marked. Mark the exterior of all meter enclosures, the main line switch
(when installed adjacent to the meter enclosure), and the inside of the meter enclosure (whenever feasible
to do so).
F. Relocation or Upgrade of Metering Equipment

Whenever it is necessary to relocate or upgrade an existing metering installation, the new installation shall
be made by the Customer in accordance with these standards. The customer shall be responsible for all
costs associated with any work or modification to the customer’s facilities which causes FPL to have to
replace or modify its existing facilities.
A definite schedule for the switch-over to the new meter shall be arranged in advance by the Customer so
FPL can accommodate the request upon completion of the Customer's electrical work. The new service
entrance shall be inspected and approved by local authorities before service can be restored. No energized
service entrance shall be left unmetered, and all meters shall be re-identified as to what units they serve.
Refer also to section III.I.
G. Load Profile Metering Requirements

Load Profile Meters may be required when the Customer’s load exceeds 500 KWD. Solid State Data
Recorders (SSDR) are no longer installed for new services. Load Profile Meters in the form of Recorders-
Under-Glass (RUG) or SMART meters are the correct equipment to be installed for all new services.
Metering equipment enclosures and associated cabinets are provided and installed by the Customer,
typically located near the point of metering at the Customer's service entrance (Fig. VI-7). Load Profile
metering only requires an SJB cabinet if two or more meters are involved in the installation.
The Customer may be required to provide two (2) 3/4" PVC or metallic conduits from the FPL telephone
jack cabinet to the point of access to the telephone system. Contact FPL for details.
Both RUG and SMART meters provide one channel of Load Profile recording as well as collect data from
up to (2) additional pulse-initiating meters. Two or more meters on a Load Profile installation are combined
on one account. In addition to basic Load Profile functions, SMART meters provide Power Quality
Monitoring and wireless communication capabilities. SMART Meters may require additional cabinets or
junction boxes installed to facilitate the antennas required for wireless communications.

H. Installation of FPL’s Metering Equipment in Customer’s Switch Cabinets
Installation of CTs in customer’s switch cabinets is discouraged and will only be approved if no other
location for the CTs is practical. If FPL’s equipment is installed in the Customer’s switch cabinet:
1. The installation must be approved by FPL prior to the purchase of the customer’s equipment.
2. For IT rated metering, the customer shall sign a Hold Harmless Agreement absolving FPL of
damage to the switch cabinet during installation or damage caused by failure of the CTs.
3. The CT compartment of the customer’s switch cabinet must comply with FPL’s Specification for
Customer Owned Instrument Transformer Cabinets, Equipment Enclosures and Junction Boxes Spec.
# 6.3.4 (available upon request on an “as needed” basis).
4. The meter enclosure/meter socket must be on FPL’s Approved Metering Equipment
Enclosure List found in Section VII.
5. For both self-contained and IT rated metering, the line-side of the conductors in the switch cabinet
must be routed through secured or sealable troughs, conduits, or in such a way to prevent
unauthorized taps to be made before the meter.
6. FPL will always provide and install the CTs used in metering the customer.
7. Only FPL approved metering CTs will be used in metering applications.
8. All other rules associated to a proper meter installation (e.g. - meter rings, enclosure covers and
meter seals) must be observed.
9. All meter enclosures, cabinets and panels housing FPL equipment must have provisions for sealing.
10. All self-contained meter sockets must be lever bypass type sockets.

a. FPL Only

Approved Meter Equipment Revised
Enclosure List: 5/1/2019
The attached list of self-contained meter sockets and enclosures has been approved for use in the service areas
served by the utilities of the Meter Equipment Group. Approval is based on the unit's compliance with the MEG
specifications, particularly U.L. listing, sealing requirements, bypass characteristics, and certain operational concerns.
The MEG makes no claims regarding nameplate ratings or load side attachments beyond the sealed portion of the
meter socket. We recommend that all units be used as intended by the manufacturer. All additional data is
supplied for informational purposes only.
NOTES:
A. All commercial or three phase applications require a unit with an approved bypass device.
(Configuration 3, 4 or 5)
B. All sockets are listed as their maximum socket amperage. 320/400 Amp enclosures are listed as 400 Amp
maximum and 480/600 Amp enclosures are listed as 600 Amp maximum.
C. Aluminum enclosures are recommended in salt spray areas.
D. Sealing rings (ring-type sockets) along with all lugs/connectors (line and load side) are considered
to be part of the meter enclosure. The customer/contractor is thereby responsible for furnishing these
items. Please contact your utility representative to determine the proper size lugs/connectors. The
sealing ring must be a captive-screw type equivalent to ABB #01L0028G02, Milbank MR-4/A3068,
Landis & Gyr #9738-8002, or Ekstrom 10-9090.
E. The "configuration" refers to the various meter connecting arrangements used to accommodate the utility
meter. These configurations are described below:

Delivery Assurance – VIII: 1 of 2

Design Support VIII. GROUNDING
VIII. GROUNDING
A. General
The Customer's service entrance installation shall satisfy all grounding requirements of the
National Electrical Code (NEC) and any applicable building codes, and is subject to acceptance of
local inspecting authorities.
FPL's service drop or service lateral includes a grounded conductor. This conductor is grounded at
the source transformer location and generally interconnected with other grounded conductors. This
grounded conductor will normally be attached to a grounding connector in the meter socket and
also to one in the service equipment and to the neutral or ground bus in the service equipment.
When meter sockets with Customer owned isolated neutrals are required by local codes, a
separate Customer owned grounding conductor shall be run by the Customer from the service
equipment to the grounding connection of the meter socket.
The NEC allows several methods of supplying a grounding electrode. A ground rod is not the only
means of supplying the grounding electrode. A brief discussion of the NEC requirements is
provided in the following notes and is not intended to be all-inclusive. The NEC and your local
inspecting authorities should be consulted for additional details and for those that may have
changed since the time of this printing. FPL accepts any method which satisfies the NEC and the
local inspecting authorities.
Local inspecting authorities may have more stringent requirements than the NEC. For example,
some inspecting authorities require the use of a concrete-encased electrode as described in
Article 250.52. This electrode would consist of at least 20 continuous feet of one or more bare or
zinc galvanized or other electrically conductive coated steel reinforcing bars or rods of not less
than 1/2 inch in diameter or of at least 20 feet of bare copper conductor not smaller than No. 4.
The electrode would be encased in at least 2 inches of concrete and located within or near the
bottom of a concrete foundation or footing that is in direct contact with the earth (no vapor barrier).
B. Notes on Grounding Customer's Service Entrance:

1. FPL's point of delivery includes a grounded conductor. The point of delivery is normally at the
weatherhead (in the case of an FPL overhead service lateral), the meter can (in the case of an
FPL underground service lateral), a padmounted transformer, or a vault.
2. The customer shall connect this FPL grounded conductor to the service equipment by
extending a customer-owned grounded conductor along with the other conductors of the
customer's service entrance which attach to FPL at the point of delivery. This grounded
conductor shall be extended even though it may not be required as a circuit conductor by the
NEC and shall be sized according to NEC Article 250.
3. The customer's service entrance wiring shall be grounded as required by the NEC, Article 250,
and any local code in effect.
4. The grounded wiring system to each premise shall have a grounding electrode conductor
connected to a grounding electrode meeting the requirements of the NEC. This grounded
conductor shall be connected to the grounded service conductor at any accessible point on
the load side of the service drop or lateral to and including the service equipment terminals
provided to connect the grounded service conductor.
5. The equipment grounding conductor and the service equipment enclosure shall be connected
to the grounded conductor of the system within the service equipment or within the service
conductor enclosure.

Design Support VIII. GROUNDING
6. The grounding electrode system is discussed in Article 250.52 of the NEC. Article 250.52
states that, if available on the premises, each of the following along with any "derived"
electrodes shall be bonded together to form the grounding electrode system: (1) metal
underground water pipe 10 feet or more in length, (2) metal frame of building in direct contact
with the earth for 10 or more feet or with concrete encased hold down bolts that are connected
to a concrete encased electrode, (3) concrete encased electrode at least 20 feet in length, (4)
ground ring at least 20 feet in length, (5) rod and pipe electrodes at least 8 feet in length, (6)
other listed electrodes, or (7) plate electrodes. The rod or pipe electrode may be a 5/8”
diameter stainless steel, copper or zinc coated steel rod, or a smaller diameter listed rod, or a
pipe of at least 3/4” diameter (galvanized or coated if steel), all driven 8' into the earth. A plate
electrode shall expose not less than two square feet of surface to exterior soil. Iron or steel
plates shall be at least 1/4 inch thick and nonferrous plates shall be at least .06 inch thick. A
single rod, pipe, or plate electrode having a resistance to earth of more than 25 ohms shall
have a supplemental electrode installed no closer than 6 feet away. Aluminum electrodes ARE
NOT PERMITTED. A metal underground gas piping system SHALL NOT BE USED AS A
GROUNDING ELECTRODE.
7. For additional grounding information, see the National Electrical Code, Article 250, and local
building codes in effect in the area. If local building code requirements exceed those of the
National Electrical Code, installations shall comply with the local codes.

Delivery Assurance – IX. MOTORS, CONTROLLERS and AIR IX: 1 of 5

Design Support CONDITIONERS
IX. MOTORS, CONTROLLERS AND AIR CONDITIONERS
A. General
Before ordering or installing any large polyphase or single phase motor, FPL should be consulted
to determine the character and adequacy of the available service and the allowable starting current
at the premises to be served. This information should be passed on to the suppliers of the
proposed motorized equipment. This will assist suppliers in providing equipment and protective
devices to obtain satisfactory operation at minimum cost, considering both initial installation and
future maintenance.
Motors less than 7.5 horse power can be served with single phase service, unless three phase
service is already being supplied. Motors 7.5 to 20 horsepower require open delta service (or wye
if already being supplied), and motors larger than 20 horsepower require wye service. Availability
of three phase service should be discussed in advance with FPL.
Single phase motors larger than one-half horsepower fed from 120/240 volt circuits should be
connected for 240 volt operation. Smaller motors may be connected for 240 volts, where
practicable, at the Customer's option.
The current required to start a motor is much greater than that required to operate it at full load
after it has reached rated speed. If not controlled, this starting current may cause severe voltage
fluctuations, not only on the wiring of the Customer using the motor, but also on other Customers'
wiring. The more frequently the motor is started, the more objectionable these voltage fluctuations
become.
The National Electrical Code, in Article 430, provides a table (430.7(B)) which classifies motors by
their "locked-rotor" (starting) input requirements. A code letter is assigned to each requirement
bracket. The brackets are given in "kilovolt-amperes" per horsepower which can be easily
converted to amperes for a given motor. The starting current increases as the code letter
increases. The appropriate letter is stamped on the motor nameplate.
Using this information, FPL has prepared Table IX-1 for single phase motors, five horsepower and
below. This table lists code letters and starting currents which will be acceptable at most locations
on FPL's system. The value given is for one motor which does not start more than four times per
hour. Table IX-2 provides similar data for single phase air conditioners, but is based on the unit's
rated output rather than horsepower.
B. FPL Approval of Starting Means for Large Motors
For motors larger than those listed in Table IX-1, or which start more frequently, the Customer
may be required to provide reduced voltage or incremental starting equipment, to reduce each
step of starting current to the value shown. FPL shall be consulted and will advise the Customer of
its requirements.
In the case of three phase motors, because of the variety of service conditions and the large
number of motor sizes available, FPL shall be contacted in each case to determine if reduced
voltage or incremental starting will be required. If two or more motors are started simultaneously,
the starting limitations apply to the total current of the group.

C. Motor Protection and Power Factor

It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that all motor circuits include protection
which at a minimum meets the National Electrical Code and any applicable local codes.
Note: such protection is designed to protect personnel from electrical and fire hazard, it
is not intended to protect the motor from damage. For this reason, FPL recommends
that the customer add the following to motor circuits to reduce the risk of equipment
damage.
The use of automatic time delay circuit breakers or time delay fuses is strongly recommended
when protecting motors against damage from excessive currents. The time delay feature will
eliminate unnecessary operation of the breakers or blowing of fuses during motor starting or
temporary overloads.
Under Voltage Protection - A low-voltage release is designed to disconnect the motor
automatically and return the starting device to the "off" position upon partial or total failure of the
supply voltage. It is used, where applicable, for motors that cannot safely be subjected to full
voltage at starting, or where low voltage would result in injury or damage to equipment. This
release should be of the time delay type, capable of adjustment to a maximum of at least two
seconds and set at the lowest value suitable for proper protection. FPL will be glad to advise
the Customer on the proper interval for coordination with FPL's circuit breakers. This will
prevent unnecessary disconnection of the motor on momentary voltage fluctuations or loss of
voltage.
Single Phase Protection - When installing three phase motors, the Customer should consider
the possibility of the loss of one phase, either in his own installation or in FPL's supply lines.
This "single phasing" may happen regardless of the precautions taken to avoid it, and FPL
therefore strongly recommends that devices be installed to protect the equipment against the
damage that may result.
Phase Reversal Protection - Three phase motors for applications to elevators, cranes, hoists,
well pumps or other installations where reversal of rotation might cause damage to equipment
or constitute a hazard to personnel should have phase rotation protection.
Reclose Protection - Motors which cannot be safely subjected to full voltage starting, or
processes which may create a safety hazard upon an uncontrolled re-start, should be designed
to require manual or time delay re-start upon the interruption of the supply voltage.
Phase Imbalance Protection – Imbalanced three phase voltages may cause unequal phase
currents. Heating caused by the imbalanced currents can shorten the life of a motor. Because
of this, the American National Standards Institute, ANSI C84.1-2006 Standard for Power
Systems and Equipment, recommends that “electric supply systems be designed and operated
to limit the maximum voltage imbalance to 3 percent when measured at the electric-utility
revenue meter under no-load conditions”.
ANSI uses the formula:
Percent Imbalance = Maximum deviation from the average divided by the average
To protect motors from damage due to amperage imbalance, imbalance protection should be
installed at the motor to limit full load operation if the voltage imbalance exceeds 3%, or the
amperage imbalance exceeds 30%.
Note: Some brands of protection on the market for chillers and other motors use the formula:
Percent Imbalance = (Highest phase – lowest phase) divided by the average

DATE


Devices using this formula should be set at 4% voltage and 40% amperage to provide the same
protection as the ANSI formula.
Under voltage, single phase, phase reversal and imbalance protection are all available
through the installation of an electronic phase loss protector in the motor control circuit.
Such protective devices are supplied and installed by the Customer. FPL is not
responsible for damage to motors from power abnormalities.
Surge protection should also be considered for installation at the motor breaker panel.
Surge protection can help reduce damage to a motor's windings from external spikes, as
well as reduce damage to customer equipment from power spikes generated by large
motors starting and stopping.
Power Factor
Power factor is a calculation representing the relationship of "real" power (kw) which performs
useful work in turning a motor, to "apparent" power (kva) which magnetizes motor and
transformer coils. Motor loads frequently adversely affect the power factor of a circuit, usually
from oversized or lightly loaded motors. Certain other types of loads can reduce power factor.
A low power factor also reduces the capacity of circuit conductors to deliver "real" power and
can increase wiring costs as well as electric demand on the utility system. FPL reserves the
right to adjust meter reading kw for billing where power factor is less than 85%.
Capacitors are sometimes connected on the load side of a motor controller to improve the
power factor of the circuit. When this is done, the total kvar connected should not exceed the
value required to raise the power factor of the motor to unity when it is running unloaded.
D. Air Conditioners that require excessive starting currents

A number of single phase 240 volt air conditioning units currently on the market require starting
currents that exceed the 40 amps per ton allowed by FPL design practices. This will cause
voltage flicker (momentary voltage dips) to exceed the limits to which FPL’s distribution systems
have been designed, and in many cases, flicker conditions quite objectionable to homeowners
having these units.
Air conditioning units causing the majority of complaints seem to be those with the “scroll” type
compressor, that are 3 tons or greater. Unlike their predecessor reciprocating compressor
types, these systems do not require a starting capacitor system to start, so the manufacturers
are no longer installing them. Without starting capacitors, the starting currents drawn on the
electrical distribution system and “seen” by the customer as flicker have increased dramatically.
We strongly suggest you verify, before purchasing, that the units you obtain require starting
currents of 40 amps or less per ton. If these limits are exceeded, “hard start kits” should be
installed. If further reductions are necessary, “delay start” mechanisms might be considered so
all the units components (compressor, air handler, condensing fan) do not start simultaneously.
Installing this equipment at the factory can be done for minimal cost (far less than retrofits in the
field) and will prevent customer complaints. If FPL has to oversize new facilities or upgrade
existing facilities due to starting currents exceeding the 40 amp per ton threshold, CIAC charges
would apply.
Air conditioning manufacturers do not routinely publish starting current values. For units without

DATE


starting capacitors a “rough” approximation of the starting current can be obtained by adding the
Locked Rotor Amp (LRA) values for the compressor, condenser fan and air handler, and
multiplying this total by 1.10. For further information on this subject contact your local FPL
construction representative.

Processes
X. ELECTRICAL DISTURBANCES
Electric welders, furnaces, electric draglines, electric dredges, large, frequently started, motorized
equipment, variable speed drives, SCR converters, and tankless water heaters are examples of
equipment that have operating characteristics which may require rapidly fluctuating amounts of
current. If the device is large, significant voltage fluctuations may result, even on a system which is
adequate for normal service. These voltage fluctuations may affect the operation and life of
other equipment in the customer's facility as well as the equipment of other customers in the
vicinity.
Section IX covers FPL's requirements when frequent starting of large motors is involved.
When service is required for any of the other devices mentioned, or similar devices, FPL shall be
consulted. It may be found that the device cannot be served at the specific location unless special
facilities and control equipment are provided both by FPL and the Customer.
The cost for any additional or upgraded facilities that are required to be installed by FPL in order to
serve these devices will be borne by the customer as CIAC. If the adverse effects cannot be mitigated
by the installation of additional or upgraded facilities, or if these devices cause objectionable flicker to
other customers’ service, FPL may require the device to be disconnected from the electrical system.
There are other devices, such as silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) devices, or any device which
suddenly interrupts current at other than a natural zero point, which may cause high frequency voltage
oscillations or transients in the circuit. This may be detrimental to the Customer's service or to that of
an adjacent Customer. It may be necessary for the Customer to install filters or other corrective
devices if he wishes to continue the use of such equipment.
If the Customer uses carrier current or any other system that superimposes a voltage with a frequency
other than the normal 60 hertz voltage on his wiring, he shall provide filters or other equipment, as
required, to prevent it from appearing on FPL's distribution system.

XI. RADIO, TELEVISION AND MISCELLANEOUS ANTENNAS
Radio and television antennas, their lead-in cables, guy wires and metallic supports shall be kept well
clear of electric powerlines. They should be installed in accordance with Article 810 of the National
Electrical Code, and any applicable local building code.
The shortest distance between the power conductor and the antenna mast should exceed the height
of the antenna mast from the ground.
The antenna or lead in conductors should not cross over electric light or power circuits. These items
should be kept well away from such circuits, but where this is impossible, they shall have a clearance
of at least 2 feet to circuits of less than 250 volts between conductors. Where practicable, these items
should not cross under electric light and power circuits or be closer than 10 feet to power circuits of
more than 250 volts between conductors.
Most contacts between antennas and power lines occur either during antenna installation or
subsequent maintenance. The homeowner installing an antenna should be sure it is well away from
any exposed electric wires. He should be certain that neither the antenna and mast nor the lead-in nor
guy wires could possibly contact the power wires if the installer loses control of any component of the
assembly.

XII. STREET & OUTDOOR SECURITY LIGHTING
A. FPL Owned - Street Lighting

The application of FPL's Street Lighting Rate schedule (SL-1), as defined in FPL Tariff Sheet 8.715, is for the
lighting of streets and roadways, whether public or private, which are thoroughfares for normal flow of
vehicular traffic. Lighting for other applications such as: municipally and privately owned parking lots; parks
and recreational areas; or any other area not expressly defined above, is not permitted under this schedule.
Fixtures installed under SL-1 are High Pressure Sodium Vapor (HPSV).
FPL’s LED Lighting Schedule (LT-1), as defined in FPL Tariff Sheet 8.735, is for the purpose of lighting
streets whether public or private, roadways, and common areas, other than individual residential locations.
This includes but is not limited to parking lots, homeowners’ association common areas, or parks. Fixtures
installed under LT-1 are Light Emitting Diode (LED).
If FPL is requested to install, own, and maintain its street lighting facilities, service is subject to the terms
and conditions of rate schedule SL-1 or LT-1 together with FPL's Street Lighting Agreement, which must
be properly executed prior to the installation or modification of any FPL owned street lighting facility.
For FPL owned street lighting facilities, A CIAC will be required from the customer for:
a. the estimated differential cost between employing rapid construction techniques in trenching,
backfilling, and pole installation work where no obstructions exist, and the added cost to overcome
obstructions such as sprinkler systems, paved surfaces (such as sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and
roadways), landscaping, sodding and other obstructions encountered along the Street Lighting System
installation route, including repair and replacement. As an alternative to paying FPL for these added
costs, the customer can elect to perform the trenching work and restoration himself. If that work involves
trench (and installation of conduit provided by FPL), the Customer will be reimbursed by FPL for the
value, as determined by FPL, of that trench (based on rapid construction, no obstructions) and conduit
installation, up to the amount of CIAC that is due.
b. the installation cost of any new overhead distribution facilities and/or the cost of alterations to existing
distribution facilities which are required in order to serve the Street Lighting System less four (4) times the
additional annual non-fuel energy revenue generated by the installation or alteration of the Street Lighting
System, plus where underground facilities are installed, the differential installation cost between
underground and overhead distribution facilities.
These costs, if any, shall be paid by the Customer before the commencement of any construction work by
FPL. The Customer shall also pay any additional costs associated with design modifications requested after
the original estimate has been made. FPL does not design to, or guarantee minimum street lighting
levels based on any IES standards.
If FPL street lighting facilities installed under rate schedule SL-1 must be removed for any reason (Customer
request, relocation, upgrade, modification, termination or breach of the Agreement, etc.) the Customer shall
pay FPL an amount equal to the original installed cost of the removed facilities less any salvage value and
depreciation (based on current depreciation rates as approved by the Florida Public Service Commission)
plus removal cost.
If FPL lighting facilities installed under rate schedule LT-1 must be removed for any reason (Customer
request, relocation, upgrade, modification, termination or breach of the Agreement, etc.) the Customer shall
pay FPL the remaining fixture, pole, and conductor charges for the period remaining on the currently active
term of service plus the cost to remove the facilities.
Customers converting FPL owned HPSV or MH fixtures (SL-1) to FPL owned LED fixtures (LT-1) pay a
monthly “Conversion Recovery Fee” to cover the cost of the conversion.

Customer.
If these terms and conditions are unacceptable to the Customer, or if the poles and fixtures offered by FPL
are not those desired by the Customer, the Customer may wish to consider installing his own street lighting
facilities.
B. Customer-owned Street Lighting
For Customer owned street lighting systems, where the street light facilities are installed, owned, and
maintained by the Customer, FPL will specify the service location, and require the customer to install a
single phase, 60 Hertz metered service in accordance with Rate Schedule (SL-1M), as defined in FPL

For Customer owned traffic lighting systems, including traffic signal facilities, pedestiran crossings, school
flashing zones, and emergency crossings, where the facilities are installed, owned, and maintained by the
Customer, FPL will specify the service location, and require the customer to install a single phase, 60
Hertz metered service in accordance with Rate Schedule (SL-2M), as defined in FPL Tariff Sheet 8.731.

Refer to the ESS Section IV – Service and Meter Connections to connect service
D. Outdoor Security Lighting

The application of FPL's Outdoor Lighting Rate Schedule (OL-1), as defined in FPL Tariff Sheet 8.725, is for
year-round outdoor security lighting of yards, walkways, and other areas on property owned by individuals or
organizations. This rate schedule is not available for Street Lighting applications (public or private roadway
lighting). Lights to be served hereunder shall be at locations which are easily and economically accessible to
FPL vehicles, equipment and personnel for construction and maintenance.
It is intended that FPL-owned security lights be installed on existing FPL-owned facilities (distribution poles
with secondary conductor), or "short extensions." Short extensions are limited to the installation of a single
pole and span of secondary per light. There is no defined limit to the number of outdoor security lights
available to one customer.
Where more extensive lighting systems are required, such as parking lots or other "engineered lighting level"
applications where more than a single pole extension, or more than FPL lights installed on existing
distribution facilities is required, the Customer can elect to provide the fixtures, supports & circuit wiring. FPL
will specify the service location, connect to the customer’s system, and provide energy-only services, if
applicable, in accordance with rate schedule OL-1.
If the Customer requests, or, if the energy provided through the Customer's metered service under a GS
Rate is to the Customer's advantage, the service for the lighting can be provided under the appropriate GS
rate schedule.
The number of outdoor lights is limited to four (4) lights per pole on those poles entirely devoted to the
support of outdoor lights, and two lights on all other poles. These limits are to be reduced wherever FPL
engineering opinion or construction forces recommend.
Luminaires installed on poles along an adjacent roadway must be faced towards private property. The
bracket length for conventional luminaires is 2-1/2 feet. Longer brackets will be considered only at locations
accessible to FPL equipment and personnel.

Design Support XII. STREET & OUTDOOR SECURITY LIGHTING
Standard installations requiring installation of only outdoor lighting facilities covered by a monthly charge (e.g.
luminaire, bracket, single span of secondary per light, pole, down guy, UG conductors, etc.) generally require
no CIAC.
However, when installation or modification of distribution facilities is required for which there is no monthly
charge (e.g. transformers, additional spans of secondary beyond the allowed single span per light, change in
height of existing poles, installation of mid-span poles, etc.) a CIAC will be required equal to the total
estimated cost of those facilities not included in the schedule of monthly charges. EAR is not a factor in
determining this CIAC amount.
For outdoor lighting applications requiring UG conductors, the customer must provide the trench, backfill,
and restoration. If mutually agreed by the customer and FPL, FPL will provide the trench, but at the
customer's expense.
E. Disconnect Devices for Customer-Owned Street / Outdoor Security Lighting
When a customer-owned street/outdoor lighting circuit (a circuit being one or more lights served from one
service point) is to be installed under the street/outdoor lighting rate schedules (SL-1, OL-1), the customer
shall install a fused disconnect device for each circuit. Installation of the disconnect device is required
whether the circuit is individual or group control. The disconnect device is required to isolate the
customer's circuit during maintenance, isolate FPL's system from malfunctioning customer equipment,
and comply with any applicable building code requirements.
Location of Customer's Disconnect Device:
a. Overhead FPL Service Point:
Customer disconnect device can be mounted on the customer's street/outdoor light pole provided
that the distance to FPL's overhead service point allows for the provision of an FPL overhead
service and that the attachment height allows for proper clearances.
Customer's disconnect device can be installed in customer handhole adjacent to the utility pole.
FPL will terminate its underground cable (from the overhead source) in the customer handhole if
this arrangement is acceptable to the customer. Otherwise, FPL will provide its own handhole at
the base of the pole and terminate the customer's cable therein. In either case, a Contribution In
Aid of Construction (CIAC) may be required.
Customer's disconnect device can be installed on a pedestal adjacent to the pole. FPL will extend
its underground cable (from the overhead source) to its handhole adjacent to the utility pole and
terminate the customer's cable therein. CIAC may be required. If sufficient attachment height is
made available by the customer, FPL may provide an overhead service.
No customer equipment is to be installed on the utility-owned pole. Customer-owned secondary
risers will be allowed only for those governmental agencies that have executed a Public Body Joint
Use Pole Agreement.
b. Underground FPL Service Point:

Customer disconnect device shall be installed adjacent to FPL's service point on customer's
pedestal or in customer's handhole. FPL will terminate the customer's cable at the service point.
Both the fusing and the cable from the FPL service point to customer's disconnect device shall BE
installed by the customer in accordance with applicable building codes.
Customer-owned disconnect devices are not to be installed to control FPL-owned street lighting
facilities.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, workplace accidents kill more than 5,000 U.S. workers every
year. We urge our customers and employees to practice safe work habits to prevent serious injuries and
save lives! Always follow the Safety 6 rules to prevent the most common mistakes around power lines.
Rule 1: Work a safe distance

This is the most important rule: Work at a safe distance from all power lines. The Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires that equipment be kept at least 10 feet away from
power lines from 0-50 kV. For higher voltage lines, the required distance is even greater (see table below).
When uncertain of a power line’s voltage, stay 20 feet away for voltages up 350 kV and 50 feet away for
voltages greater than 350 kV. Cranes and derricks are required to take additional steps before beginning
work (see OSHA Standards 29 CFR 1926.1400 effective Nov. 8, 2010). Call FPL at 1-800-375-4375 or
your local utility to identify the voltage of power lines before you begin working.
If you witness a violation of the rules, stay away from the equipment and warn the operator to move away
from the power line.

Rule 3: Ladders and lines don't mix

Before you begin working, look up and note the location of power lines. You can be
seriously hurt or killed if the object you are holding or standing on contacts a power line.
 Before raising or extending any equipment capable of reaching a power line, check in all
directions for power lines.
 Keep a safe distance from any power line, measuring from the end or tip of your own
extended reach and including the end or tip of any object you are holding or carrying.
Remember to allow even greater distance for safety near higher voltage lines such as
transmission lines.
 Even nonmetallic ladders and equipment can conduct electricity.
Rule 4: Call before you dig
 One easy call to 811 starts the process of getting underground utility lines marked for free.
 Utility company locators will mark the approximate location and type of underground utilities
with paint and flags.
 To avoid costly repairs and construction delays, be sure to contact Sunshine State One
Call of Florida at 811 or 1-800-432-4770 at least two full business days in advance of any
excavation work.* Visit www.CallSunshine.com for more information.

Rule 5: Look up and live
Look up when working around overhead power lines, especially when trees are nearby.
Branches can hide power lines from view.
 Look up for power lines when using tools of any kind. Even nonmetallic tools can conduct
electricity.
 Cranes and derricks that approach working distance within 20 feet of power lines with
operating voltages up to 350 kV, or within 50 feet of power lines with voltages greater than
350 kV, are mandated to take “encroachment prevention measures.” See OSHA Standards
29 CFR 1926.1400.
 Look up for power lines when putting up scaffolding, framing a building, painting, pruning
trees or picking fruit.
 Before moving a tree under a power line, look up and determine the maximum height to lift
the tree. Keep a safe distance away as required by OSHA. Trees can conduct electricity.
 Look up for power lines when working on top of buildings.

 Before transporting large boats or large objects, please identify a safe route that avoids
power lines. If you cannot avoid power lines, please call 1-800-375-4375 to coordinate
transport and temporary removal* or de-energizing of FPL power lines.
* Charges may apply for temporary removal or relocation of power lines. You may need to coordinate transportation of oversized
objects with local authorities.
Rule 6: Downed lines can be deadly

Always assume that any downed power line is energized, and stay away.
 Do not touch or attempt to move any power line.

 Call 911 and 1-800-4OUTAGE (1-800-468-8243) or your local utility immediately.
 If a fellow worker touches a downed line or is handling equipment that contacts a power
line, remember that any rescue attempt places you in danger.
 If you must rescue a person in contact with a power line, never use your hands. Use a dry,
nonconductive object to move the person to safety.

NOTIFICATION OF FPL FACILITIES

Customer/Agency _______________________________________________ Date of Meeting/Contact: ___________________________
Developer/Contractor Name ________________________________________ Project Number/Name: ___________________________
Location of Project _______________________________________________ City: ____________________________________________
FPL Representative ______________________________________________ Phone: __________________________
Developer/Contractor Representative _________________________________ FPL Work Request #/Work Order #: ___________________
FPL calls your attention to the fact that there may be energized, high voltage electric lines, both overhead and underground, located in the area of this project. It is imperative that you visually
survey the area and that you also take the necessary steps to identify all overhead and underground facilities prior to commencing construction to determine whether the construction of any
proposed improvements will bring any person, tool, machinery, equipment or object closer to FPL’s power lines than the OSHA-prescribed limits. If it will, you must either re-design your project
to allow it to be built safely given the pre-existing power line location, or make arrangements with FPL to either deenergize and ground our facilities, or relocate them, possibly at your expense.
You must do this before allowing any construction near the power lines. It is impossible for FPL to know or predict whether or not the contractors or subcontractors, and their employees,
will operate or use cranes, digging apparatus or other mobile equipment, or handle materials or tools, in dangerous proximity to such power lines during the course of construction, and, if so,
when and where. Therefore, if it becomes necessary for any contractor or subcontractor, or their employees, to operate or handle cranes, digging apparatus, draglines, mobile equipment, or
any other equipment, tools or materials in such a manner that they might come closer to underground or overhead power lines than is permitted by local, state or federal regulations, you and
any such contractor or subcontractor must notify FPL in writing of such planned operation prior to the commencement thereof and make all necessary arrangements with FPL in order to carry
out the work in a safe manner. Any work in the vicinity of the electric lines should be suspended until these arrangements are finalized and implemented.
The National Electrical Safety Code ("NESC") prescribes minimum clearances that must be maintained. If you build your structure so that those clearances cannot be maintained, you may be
required to compensate FPL for the relocation of our facilities to comply with those clearances. As such, you should contact FPL prior to commencing construction near pre-existing
underground or overhead power lines to make sure that your proposed improvement does not impinge upon the NESC clearances.
It is your responsibility and the responsibility of your contractors and subcontractors on this project to diligently fulfill the following obligations:
1. Make absolutely certain that all persons responsible for operating or handling cranes, digging apparatus, draglines, mobile equipment or any equipment, tool, or material capable
of contacting a power line, are in compliance with all applicable state and federal regulations, including but not limited to U.S. Department of Labor OSHA Regulations, while performing their
work.
2. Make sure that all cranes, digging apparatus, draglines, mobile equipment, and all other equipment or materials capable of contacting a
power line have attached to them any warning signs required by U.S. Department of Labor OSHA Regulations.
3. Post and maintain proper warning signs and advise all employees, new and old alike, of their obligation to keep themselves, their tools,
materials and equipment away from power lines per the following OSHA minimum approach distances (refer to OSHA regulations for restrictions):
*Power Line Voltages **Personnel and Equipment Cranes and Derricks Travel under or near Power Lines (on construction sites, no load)
(29 CFR 1910.333 and 1926.600) (29 CFR 1926.1407, 1408) (29 CFR 1926.600 – Equipment) (1926.1411 – Cranes and Derricks)
0 - 750 volts 10 Feet 10 Feet 4 Feet 4 Feet
751 - 50,000 volts 10 Feet 10 Feet 4 Feet 6 Feet
69,000 volts 11 Feet 15 Feet 10 Feet 10 Feet
*When uncertain of the voltage, maintain a distance of 20 feet for voltages up to 350,000 volts and 50 feet for voltages greater than 350,000 volts.
**For personnel approaching insulated secondary conductors less than 750 volts, avoid contact (Maintain 10 Feet to bare energized conductors less than 750 volts). For qualified personnel
and insulated aerial lift equipment meeting requirements of 29 CFR 1910.333, distances may be reduced to those shown in 29 CFR 1910.333 Table S-5.
4. All excavators are required to contact the Sunshine State One Call of Florida, phone number 1-800-432-4770 or 811 a minimum of two working days (excluding weekends) in
advance of commencement of excavation to ensure facilities are located accurately.
5. Conduct all locations and excavations in accordance with the Florida Statute 556 of the Underground Facilities Damage Prevention & Safety Act and all local city and county
ordinances that may apply.
6. When an excavation is to take place within a tolerance zone, an excavator shall use increased caution to protect underground facilities.
The protection requires hand digging, pot holing, soft digging, vacuum methods, or similar procedures to identify underground facilities.
A copy of this notification must be provided by you to each contractor and subcontractor on this project, to be shared with their supervision and employees prior to commencing work on this
project.
