such authority is not preempted by federal law. The rules shall include prescriptive standards for inspection, maintenance, repair,
and replacement of the transmission and distribution systems of electric utilities;
shall apply to each substantial type of transmission or distribution equipment or
facility; shall establish uniform interconnection standards to ensure transmission
and distribution system safety and reliability and shall otherwise provide for high
quality, safe, and reliable electric service; shall include standards for operation,
reliability, and safety during periods of emergency and disaster; and shall include
voltage standards for efficient operation of single-phase motors. The rules regarding interconnection shall seek to prevent barriers to new technology

the commission shall initiate proceedings open to the public to solicit comments from
all interested parties. Additionally, rules under this division shall include nondiscriminatory metering
standards. (B) The commission shall require each electric utility to report annually to the commission

Periodically as determined by commission rule under division (A) of section 4928.06 of the Revised Code and in a proceeding initiated under division (B) of section 4928.16 of the Revised Code , the commission shall review a utility's report to determine the utility's compliance
