A quick definition of public-service commission:

A public-service commission is a group of people who are given the power by the government to regulate public utilities or public-service corporations. These are companies that provide services like electricity, water, and transportation to the public. The commission makes sure that these companies are doing their job properly and that they are not taking advantage of the people who use their services. It's like having a group of grown-ups who make sure everyone plays fair and follows the rules.

A more thorough explanation:

A public-service commission is a body of persons authorized by the government to regulate public utilities or public-service corporations. It is created by a legislature to ensure that these companies provide fair and reasonable services to the public.

For example, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is a public-service commission that regulates communication services in the United States. It ensures that companies like AT&T and Verizon provide reliable and affordable services to their customers.

Another example is a state's public-service commission that regulates electricity and gas companies. It ensures that these companies provide safe and reliable services to their customers at reasonable rates.

Overall, public-service commissions play an important role in protecting the public's interests and ensuring that public utilities and service corporations operate fairly and efficiently.
