DC Power Reduction Clause Samples
The DC Power Reduction clause establishes the conditions under which the direct current (DC) power output from a facility, such as a solar power plant, may be reduced. Typically, this clause outlines the circumstances that justify a reduction—such as maintenance, grid constraints, or safety requirements—and may specify notification procedures or limits on the duration and extent of such reductions. Its core practical function is to provide a clear framework for managing and communicating reductions in DC power output, thereby minimizing disputes and ensuring operational flexibility when external or internal factors necessitate a temporary decrease in generation.
DC Power Reduction. DC Power Reduction With Reservation allows CLEC to reserve a fuse or breaker position on the power board or battery distribution fuse board (BDFB) when reducing a secondary power feed to zero. CLEC will pay a monthly power maintenance charge to retain the existing power cabling and fuse position for future power augment requests or until such time as CLEC notifies Qwest it wishes to discontinue the option. DC Power Reduction Without Reservation allows CLEC to reduce the ordered amps on a primary or secondary feed to a minimum of twenty (20) amps.
8.2.1.32.1 Applications for DC Power Reduction may be submitted only for Collocation sites that have been completed and accepted by CLEC, otherwise CLEC should follow standard change or augment procedures including the applicable rates for changes or augments. On the Collocation Application, CLEC should indicate that it is a request for DC Power Reduction and identify the specific power feeds to be reduced. Qwest will notify CLEC of any deficiencies in the Collocation Application, within ten (10) Days of receipt. A quotation for the DC Power Reduction will be provided to CLEC within twenty-five (25) Days. The quoted nonrecurring charges will be honored for thirty (30) Days from the quotation. CLEC payment of all quoted nonrecurring charges constitutes acceptance and Qwest will then perform the work. If CLEC accepts the quotation within seven (7) Days, Qwest shall complete the DC Power Reduction within ninety (90) Days of receipt of the Collocation Application. If CLEC accepts the quotation after seven (7) Days, Qwest shall complete the DC Power Reduction within ninety (90) Days of receipt of CLEC's acceptance.
8.2.1.32.2 CLEC assumes all responsibility for outages or impacts to CLEC services and equipment due to the reduction in DC power. Restoration of the DC power is contingent upon the desired power and fuse availability.
8.2.1.32.3 Before submitting a Collocation Application requesting DC Power Reduction, CLEC's financial obligations for the Collocation site must be current, with the exception of formally disputed charges. Billing to CLEC will be revised to reflect the reduced DC power upon receipt of payment of the quoted charges effective back to the date of acceptance by Qwest of the Collocation Application.
8.2.1.32.4 If a shortage of fuse positions is imminent, Qwest will notify CLEC of the need to exercise its option to reuse the power feed and fuse, or relinquish the fuse position for use by another CLE...

DC Power Reduction. DC Power Reduction With Reservation allows CLEC to reserve a fuse or breaker position on the power board or battery distribution fuse board (BDFB) when reducing a secondary power feed. Power must be reduced down to zero. CLEC will retain the existing power cabling and fuse position for future power requests or until such time as CLEC informs Qwest it wishes to discontinue the option. See Section 8.5.5.2.
