An account that has been disconnected for any reason may be required to have the service brought to compliance with current NEC/ NESC codes and co-op policy requirements.

Requirements to include: meter socket, attachment point, instrument metering if applicable and a request for inspection from the State of MN. If the account has been final billed, shows an inactive status, and more than 30 days have lapsed since date of disconnect then update requirements shall be met. In the event a lineman or meter technician finds a safety hazard it is at their discretion to request an electrical inspection. When FMEC receives the evidence of inspection by the licensed electrical contractor, electrical services will be restored within two business days.

If service is reconnected in the same name within twelve months of the disconnect date, the member is required to pay the basic service charge, taxes and any applicable security lights or device fees for each of the disconnected months before service will be reconnected.  If service is disconnected for more than twelve consecutive months, such disconnections are considered permanent.
