10 Repair of faulty street lights

(1) A distributor who fails to repair faulty street lighting on or before the date agreed between a small customer and the distributor as the date by which the repair is to be completed must pay to the customer, as compensation for the loss of illumination, not less than $15.

(2) This clause applies to street lighting that is owned by the distributor or that the distributor is under a legally enforceable obligation to maintain, but does not apply to street lighting to which the distributor merely supplies electricity or connection services.

(3) This clause only applies to or in respect of a small customer if the customer’s premises abut the part of the street that (but for the fault) would ordinarily be illuminated by the street lighting.
