The members may prescribe that any bylaw or bylaws adopted by them shall not be altered, amended, or repealed by the board of directors.

(c) The bylaws may contain any provisions for the regulation and management of the affairs of the electric membership corporation not inconsistent with law or the articles of incorporation.
