Responsibilities:
Under the direction of the Village Administrator, the Electric
Department is responsible for maintaining, operating, and
repairing a variety of mechanical equipment used in the
electrical distribution system and street lighting system.
In addition, and when directed by the Village
Administrator, the Electric Department shall perform tasks in
other Village departments.
The Electric Department
currently serves approximately 940 residential customers, 156
general service and commercial customers, and 11 industrial
customers. The electric
system currently has 25 miles of 12,470 voltage distribution line,
1,300 utility poles, 430 streetlights, and 390 transformers.
The Village purchases power through the wholesale supplier
American Municipal Power Inc. (AMP), which delivers this power via a
first energy transmission line at 69,000 volts to our electric
substation. This energy
is reduced down to 12,470 volts for the utilization of power for the
Village. The electric
crew is composed of qualified journeymen linemen with all the proper
training. They operate
three vehicles: a 1995 (55 ft.) bucket truck, a 2001 (40 ft.) bucket
truck, and a 1989 digger derrick.
