Spencer, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 98 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 98-45
Electrical system to comply with regulations
Operative Text
Every park shall contain an electrical wiring system consisting of wiring fixtures, equipment and appurtenances which shall be installed and maintained in accordance with local electric power company's specifications and regulations.
Section 98-45 of Spencer, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 98 requires that every mobile home or recreational vehicle park maintain a complete electrical wiring system—including fixtures, equipment, and related components—that meets the specifications and regulations set by the local electric power company. The rule applies both to the initial installation and to ongoing maintenance of the system. Compliance is measured against the utility company's own standards rather than a separate municipal electrical code.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Spencer Code § 98-45, operators of parks subject to Chapter 98 are generally expected to ensure that all electrical wiring, fixtures, and appurtenances are installed by qualified personnel in accordance with the local electric power company's current specifications. Ongoing maintenance obligations mean that the system must continue to meet those utility standards over time, not just at the point of initial installation. Keeping documentation of inspections, utility approvals, and any upgrades can help demonstrate that the park remains in compliance with § 98-45.

Section 98-45 of Spencer's Code of Ordinances establishes a baseline right for residents of covered parks to have electrical systems that conform to local utility company standards. If a tenant believes the electrical wiring, fixtures, or equipment in their park does not meet those standards, general enforcement paths can include reporting the condition to the local code enforcement or building department, or contacting a tenant-rights organization familiar with Spencer, N.Y., municipal law. Documenting any electrical hazards or deficiencies in writing and notifying park management is a common first step that residents take when raising a potential § 98-45 concern.
