      1.  If a security instrument filed with the Secretary of State grants an interest, as security, in any real property owned by the public utility, a notice of filing of a security instrument affecting real property must be recorded in the office of the county recorder in the county where the real property is located, stating:

      (a) The name of the public utility which executed the security instrument;

      (b) That a security instrument affecting real property in the county has been executed by the public utility; and

      (c) That the security instrument was filed, and other security instruments may later be on file, in the Office of the Secretary of State.
