What is a Department of Public Utility Control (DPUC)?

A department of public utility control (DPUC) is generally a regulatory body at the state level responsible for regulating utilities that provide service within a state. The commission is comprised of either state-elected or state-appointed officials. These members regulate all electric, gas, water, cable and telephone retail in many states, and are also generally responsible for ensuring that utilities are responsive to customers' needs and service requests, and that service is both adequate and reliable.

How Connecticut DPUC describes itself:

The mission of the Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control is to ensure that safe, reliable, modern, and fairly-priced utility services are available throughout Connecticut.
