Knock me over with a feather: JCP&L has approved my plan for the service line. As soon as I receive the permit (which should be Tuesday), I can set things in motion.

It pays to rattle cages. Met with my electrician yesterday, and meeting with JCP&L later today. It will be very interesting to see if JCP&L agrees with my proposal for getting permanent service. I've also requested another window quote.
