D. Provision of Service

Initiation of Service


An account is set up in the name of the Applicant(s) when service is required. The Applicant(s) must be the owner(s) or occupants(s) of the Premise for which service is required. The Applicant(s) are required to provide proof of their identity. Maritime Electric will, as promptly as practicable, provide service in accordance with these policies. Electric service will be provided if the installation satisfies the requirements of these policies and the requirements issued by the Electrical and Elevator Inspection Branch of the Planning and Inspection Services Division of the Department of Community Affairs and Attorney General of the Province of Prince Edward Island (or such other authority as may be from time to time charged with such responsibility).

An account may be transferred to another applicant at no charge if the applicant accepts responsibility for any billed or unbilled services for that account. In all other cases a meter reading is required and the applicant is charged for the transfer of service. Fees charged for connections and reconnections are detailed in Section O - Fees and Charges, Service Call Fees and Connection and Reconnection Charges.

Refusal of Service

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Maritime Electric reserves the right to refuse to provide or continue to provide service if any of the following occur:

  • Such service would unduly interfere or does interfere with Maritime Electric's electrical service to other customers or Maritime Electric's own equipment;
  • There are safety concerns at the premises to be served or being served;- Service would contravene law, including orders or regulations of lawfully constituted public agencies;
  • The applicant/customer owes Maritime Electric for service furnished at the same or another address;
  • The applicant/customer refuses to pay any required security deposit; or
  • The applicant/customer fails to provide acceptable access to the service entrance equipment. Note: By special arrangement a key box, approved by the Utility, may be installed which shall contain the necessary key to gain access to metering equipment.
Obligations of Customer

If Maritime Electric's facilities or rental facilities on the customer's premises are damaged by other than ordinary wear and tear, the customer will pay Maritime Electric the charges associated with repairing or replacing these facilities.
