(220 ILCS 5/16-124)
Sec. 16-124.
Metering for residential and small
commercial retail customers.
An electric utility shall not require a residential or
small commercial retail customer to take additional metering
or metering capability as a condition of taking delivery
services unless the Commission finds, after notice and
hearing, that additional metering or metering capability is
required to meet reliability requirements. Alternative retail
electric suppliers serving such customers may provide such
additional metering or metering capability at their own
expense or take such additional metering or metering
capability from the utility as a tariffed service. Any
additional metering requirements shall be imposed in a
nondiscriminatory manner. Nothing in this subsection shall be
construed to prevent the normal maintenance, replacement or
upgrade of meters as required to comply with Commission rules.
