For installations of up to 3.68kW (kilowatts) per phase at more than one property; and more than one generator at a single property and/or more than one house with the same postcode when the last two digits are ignored (For example - PH1 2xx) has had generation installed, within a 28-day period, you are required to apply to us prior to connecting your generation equipment and wait for us to come back to you to say whether any work is required before you can connect.
This still applies even if the total generation across all the properties or generators is less than 3.68kW. We may have to carry out works to our network to allow your generation to operate correctly. It can take up to 45 working days for you to receive a quotation from us for this application. The 45 working day countdown will start from the date you send us the correct information outlined below.
