FEB. 23.] THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 571

Electric Telegraph Commissioner, any officer of the Post
and Telegraph Department (hereinafter referred to as "an
Electric Inspector") instructed to so act may, for the purpose
of discovering whether the leakage exists at any part of a
circuit within or upon any consumer's premises, whether
the wiring is suitable and the general requirements of the
license are complied with, by notice require the consumer, at
some reasonable time after the service of the notice, to per-
mit him to inspect and test the wires and fittings belonging
to the consumer and forming part of the circuit.
In any case where the Corporation require the services of an
Electric Inspector under this section, they shall pay the
cost of such inspection.
If on such testing and inspection the officer or the Electric
Inspector discovers a leakage from the consumer's wires
exceeding one ten-thousandth part of the maximum supply-
current to the premises, that the requirements of this license
are not properly conformed to, or if the consumer does not
give all due facilities for inspection and testing, the Corpora-
tion shall forthwith discontinue the supply of energy to
the premises in question, giving immediate notice of the dis-
continuance to the consumer, and shall not recommence the
supply until they are reasonably satisfied that the leakage
has been removed, and that the installation is in conformity
with this license.
65. If any consumer is dissatisfied with the action of the
Corporation in refusing to give, or in discontinuing, or in not
recommencing, the supply of energy to his premises, the wires
and fittings of that consumer may, on his application to the
Electric Telegraph Commissioner, and on payment of the
cost of such inspection, be inspected and be tested for the
existence of leakage by an Electric Inspector.
This provision shall be indorsed on every notice given under
the provisions of either of the two last preceding sections.
66. From and after the time when the Corporation shall com-
mence to supply energy through any distributing-main they
shall maintain during such portion of the twenty-four hours
as they shall from time to time determine to supply energy
sufficient power for the use of all the consumers for the time
being entitled to be supplied from such main: Provided that,
for any purposes connected with the efficient working of the
undertaking, the Electric Telegraph Commissioner may give
permission to the Corporation to discontinue the supply at
such intervals of time and for such periods as he may think
expedient. When the supply is so discontinued, public notice,
as far as may be possible, shall be given of such discontinuance,
and of the probable duration thereof.
67. The variation of pressure at any consumer's terminals
shall not under any conditions of the supply which the con-
sumer is entitled to receive exceed 4 per cent. from the normal
pressure at which he is being supplied.
68. The Electric Telegraph Commissioner may at any time
order an inspection to be made of the works, lines, and wires
of the Corporation used for electric-lighting and power pur-
poses. When a defect or defects are found to exist they
must be remedied forthwith, and, should they be serious in
the opinion of the officer or person inspecting, the Electric
Telegraph Commissioner may, on receipt of the report, direct
the Corporation to at once cease transmitting energy either
over the whole of the Corporation's lines and wires, or over any
part thereof that to him may seem fit, until such defect or
defects are repaired or remedied. The cost of such inspec-
tions shall be borne by the Corporation.
69. In running their lines through streets or along roads
where no telegraph or telephone lines exist, the Corporation
shall keep to one side of the street or road, and the Tele-
graph Department, in running its lines, shall do the same.
70. If the Corporation make default in complying with any
of the provisions of this license they shall be liable to a penalty
not exceeding £20 for every such default.
The recovery of a penalty under this license shall not affect
the liability (if any) of the Corporation to make compensation
in respect of any damage or injury which may be caused by
reason of the default.
And I do hereby declare that this license shall come into
force on and after the date of publication thereof in the New
Zealand Gazette.
As witness my hand, this 16th day of February,
1905.

J. G. WARD,
Electric Telegraph Commissioner.
