What this bond does
The utility deposit bond provides the payment security described in the requested instrument for the EPB account. EPB’s electric rules allow a reasonable deposit and distinguish residential from nonresidential calculations.
- Who needs it
- The EPB customer named in a request for bond security, including a business arranging security for its electric service account. Match the electric account holder, service location and requested form.
- Who it protects
- The named utility’s payment exposure is the relevant interest. The bond is not insurance against a power interruption, equipment damage or your business’s inability to pay its normal electric bills.

Questions about this bond
Can I use a residential deposit example for my business bond?
Use EPB’s amount for the actual account. Its rules distinguish residential class-average security from a nonresidential calculation based on the customer’s highest projected monthly bill.
Does EPB use one fixed nonresidential security amount?
Its published electric rules set a ceiling of twice the highest projected monthly bill, as determined by EPB. The final request for your account supplies the amount to enter.
Will the bond pay my monthly electric bills?
You remain responsible for the bills. The bond provides the security described in the issued form, not a prepaid balance or business-income insurance.
Will purchasing this schedule my power connection?
No. Complete the security submission and coordinate connection and other service requirements with EPB. The purchase action begins the bond application.
