Sevier County Electric System can require a security deposit to open or hold a commercial electric account — and accepts a surety bond in place of tying up cash. The amount is the deposit the utility set; we issue the bond at 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. Enter the figure and your exact price appears at the application.

Your business details, the deposit amount the utility set, and the effective date — that is the entire application. The form collects no credit information.
Most applications approve instantly and the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. If a check runs, it is a soft pull that never affects your score.
Submit the executed bond to the utility in place of your cash deposit. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the utility insists.
Sevier County Electric System is the public electric utility serving Sevier County, Tennessee. Like most utilities, it can require a security deposit to open or maintain a commercial electric account, especially for larger accounts or where there is no established payment history. Instead of leaving cash on deposit, a customer can post a surety bond.
The bond is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Sevier County Electric System (the obligee). If the account goes unpaid, the utility can recover against the bond up to the bond amount — exactly as it would draw down a cash deposit.
The bond amount is the deposit the utility set for your account, usually based on estimated usage. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We issue the amount from $100, and the application collects no credit information, so you keep your cash working in the business.
Submit the application with the deposit amount the utility set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to deliver.
