FIRM – Firm industrial customers cannot be curtailed and do not have a back-up fuel source.

Firm industrial rates are negotiated with each industrial customer.
INTERRUPTIBLE – Interruptible industrial customers can be curtailed. Interruptible industrial customers must have a back-up fuel source. Rates are negotiated with each industrial customer.
