Load Control Information
If you are a
Roseau Electric Cooperative off-peak customer, you can now check
the status of your loads that are being controlled. With a
few steps, you can find the information that is needed to use
the Minnkota's website for the Load Control information.
First,
locate your Roseau Electric bill. On the back side of the bill, you
will see a section that is labeled Energy Usage/Lights Summary.
In this section you find your location number that will
be needed to find your load control information. The
location must have at least two meters.
Next you
will need to view the
Roseau Electric
Dual Heat Load Groups Report. (Adobe
Acrobat Reader is needed to view the Roseau Electric Dual Heat
Load Groups Report.)
After you have
opened this report, simply click on the search button with the
binoculars at the top of the screen and a search engine will
appear on the right hand side of your screen. Put in your
location number in the area that asks, "What word or phrase
would you like to search for?. After you have entered your
location number exactly as it appears on your bill, click on the
search button.
After you
have clicked on the search button, your location number should
appear under results and the report should automatically scroll
to your location number and highlight it. Under your
location, you will see items that we have on file as off-peak.
Pick the item and write down the Load Group and Double Order
numbers. These will be used on the Minnkota website to see
if it is being controlled.
Now we need to go to the Minnkota website.
To obtain the latest information regarding
Minnkota
Power's current state of the load management system,

You will now
see a screen that looks like the following:
By using your numbers under
Load Group and Double Order, you can see if your system is
currently being controlled. For this customer, the Load
Group is 3.01 and the Double Order is 14. By finding 3.01
on the left hand side and finding 14 on the top, we can see that
this person is not currently being controlled.
