For installations in the CWLP service territory, all electrical contractors and electrical installers are required to follow the guidelines set forth in CWLP's Rules and Specifications for Electric Service. This manual, commonly referred to as the "Blue Book," includes CWLP's requirements and costs for residential, commercial and industrial electric service installations. Among the topics covered in the manual are: electric metering, application for electric service, relocation of CWLP electric facilities, supplemental electrical facilities, voltage regulation, net metering and interconnection, use of generators, temporary service, permanent service, electric service upgrades, residential and commercial developments, street lighting, and security lighting.

As of July 1, 2011, CWLP no longer issues self-contained electric meter sockets free of charge. Instead, CWLP will provide an approved list of self-contained meter sockets, and each customer or customer representative will be responsible for purchasing approved self-contained meter sockets from a supply house.

Instrument-rated meter sockets will be available for purchase from CWLP and will be issued at the Electric Distribution Center, located at 1600 S. Groth Street.

For more information or forms intended for use by electrical contractors and installers working in CWLP's service territory, as well as for information related to CWLP's Electric Division, select any of the topics or subtopics listed in the left-hand column of this page.
