1. Introduction To be able to participate in the Electricity Market Reform (EMR) Contracts for Difference (CFD) all CFD Generators must have a Metering System installed that is compliant with the CFD Agreement Terms and Conditions. This Metering System must be installed at such a point so as to measure the Metered Volume of the CFD Generator. The metering requirements in the CFD agreement can vary depending on the individual configuration of the CFD Generator. This can be as a result of the Generator type (e.g. Baseload, Intermittent, and Dual Scheme), building the scheme in a modular way or operating on a Private Network. Each CFD Generator will have an individual Agreement that will specify that Generator s requirements to the Low Carbon Contracts Company (LCCC); the CFD Counterparty. 2. Purpose The purpose of this document is to answer the following questions: What is the Electrical Schematic Obligation? What are the metering requirements for CFD Generators? What are the metering requirements for CFD Generators that are a Dual Scheme? What are the metering requirements for CFD Generators that are Offshore Wind and building the Facility in Phases? What are the metering requirements for CFD Generators operating on a Private Network? What are the test facility requirements? What are the Meter setup requirements? 3. What is the Electrical Schematic Obligation? The Generator is required to submit a copy of the Electrical Schematic Diagram (simplified single line diagram) to LCCC showing the locations of the Facility Metering Equipment. This will include Current Transformers (CT) and Voltage Transformers (VT) as well as the type of Balancing and Settlement Code (BSC) approved meters and type of communications equipment installed. The Electrical Schematic Diagram must include any relevant Meter Point Administration Number (MPAN)/Metering System ID (MSID) for a CFD Generator that is registered with the Central Metering Registration Service (CMRS) or Supplier Metering Registration Service (SMRS) and is using BSC Settlement metering. Any CFD Generator operating on a Private Network that has no MPAN/MSID will include the Meter serial numbers instead of the MPAN/MSID. The Electrical Schematic Diagram must be date and time stamped, and as an Operational Conditions Precedent accompanied by a Directors Certificate 1 certifying that the information contained in, and enclosed with, is true, complete and accurate in all material respects and is not misleading, in each case by reference to the facts and circumstances then existing. 1 Template in Annex 8 of the CFD Standard Terms and Conditions Page 5 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

The location of the CTs and VTs should be at the Defined Metering Point (DMP) of the Facility and in such a position so as to measure net Metered Volume of the Facility. The DMP is the connection point of the Facility to the Total System (Distribution or Transmission System) or Private Network. It would be expected to see the ratio, accuracy class and rated burden of the CTs and VTs on the Electrical Schematic Diagram. If any of the CTs or VTs is multi-ratio then the ratio used for CFD purposes must be highlighted. A basic example is illustrated in Diagram 1 (11.1 Appendix 1). In this simplified example any protection, control and instrumentation equipment has been removed to highlight the Metering Equipment. Single line diagrams that include protection, control and instrumentation equipment are acceptable. If any material change to the Facility Metering Equipment occurs then the Generator is required to inform the LCCC (send an Electrical Schematic Obligation Notice 2 ) within two Working Days of the change and provide an updated version of the Electrical Schematic Diagram within 10 Working Days of the change. Both the notice and the updated diagram should be accompanied by a Directors Certificate. A material change to a Metering System would be a change to: 1. Switchgear containing Measurement Transformers; and/or 2. The primary plant associated with the Metering System, i.e. Measurement Transformers. A material change for the Electrical Schematic Diagram would also include any equipment on the diagram that has been changed resulting in the original diagram submitted being incorrect. A material change can be a change of the: CT or VT ratio; CT or VT accuracy class or rated burden; location of the DMP; switchgear / primary plant; type of BSC approved Meter used (for a Private Network this would be a Meter serial number change); and type of communications system used. 2 Template in Annex 8 of the CFD Standard Terms and Conditions Page 6 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

4. What are the metering requirements for CFD Generators? 4.1 Metering Requirements For any CFD Generator that is part of the BSC Settlement System the Metering Equipment will meet the requirements as specified in the BSC Section L 3 and the applicable Code of Practice 4 (CoP), depending on the capacity of the circuit. The obligations for calibration, testing and commissioning of Metering Equipment are in CoP4. A CFD Generator can choose to exceed these requirements to install a more robust and accurate Metering System; for example by installing a Meter of a better accuracy class than the specified minimum. A CFD Generator operating on a Private Network must meet the metering requirements of the CFD Private Network Agreement. This will be described in Section 7. For a BSC registered Generator using their Settlement Metering System as the CFD Generator Facility Metering Equipment the metering arrangement will be compliant with the applicable CoP at the time of registration for Settlement. The metering DMP for the current version (26 February 2015) of the CoPs is illustrated in the Electrical Schematic Diagram example shown in Diagram 2 (11.2 Appendix 1). In the example the CFD Generator is an Onshore Wind Farm and has a main Import/Export Grid Connection for the site and a separate connection for unrelated load (e.g. site office lights and facilities). In the CFD Agreement the Generator is referred to as the Facility and the Metering System used to measure net Metered Volume is the Facility Metering Equipment. The DMP is at the Boundary Point. So for a BSC registered Generator (Central Volume Allocation (CVA) or Supplier Volume Allocation (SVA) registered) the Boundary Point is the connection to the Distribution or Transmission System, as applicable. The connection point for a Private Network CFD Generator is the connection point of the Facility to that Private Network. 4.2 Meter Data Requirements The CFD Agreement specifies that the Generator must provide Loss Adjusted Metered Output (LAMO) to the LCCC. LCCC has appointed EMR Settlement Ltd (EMRS) to receive LAMO and provide the CFD Settlement Services. This requires Half Hourly Meters to be used to provide the data used by EMRS. Net Metered Volume is the Gross Generation less any parasitic and site load used by the Generator. In effect anything produced less anything consumed by the CFD Generator. 4.3 Adjustment for Losses The LAMO is the net Metered Volume multiplied by any applicable Line Loss Factor (LLF) or Transmission Loss Multiplier (TLM) for every Settlement Period (i.e. every 30 minute period). For Metered Volumes submitted through a BSC process the LLF and TLM will be applied through the applicable process. For a CFD Generator connected to a Private Network this will be done by EMRS. 3 http://www.elexon.co.uk/bsc-related-documents/balancing-settlement-code/bsc-sections/ 4 http://www.elexon.co.uk/bsc-related-documents/related-documents/codes-of-practice/ Page 7 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

4.4 Metering Faults The CFD Generator is required under the Metering Compliance Obligation to investigate any fault or issue with the Facility Metering Equipment of which it is notified by the LCCC or required to investigate pursuant to the BSC. Where individual items of Metering Equipment are to be replaced, then only those items need to be commissioned at that time. Metering Systems in their entirety do not need to be commissioned when items are replaced within that system unless there is a material change to the Metering System. A material change to a Metering System would be a change to: 1. Switchgear containing Measurement Transformers; and/or 2. The primary plant associated with the Metering System, i.e. Measurement Transformers. A material change to a Metering System would result in the need to ensure that all items of Metering Equipment comprising that Metering System are compliant with the latest version of the applicable CoP. Page 8 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

5. What are the metering requirements for CFD Generators that are a Dual Scheme? A Dual Scheme Facility is an installation where only part of the site generation is eligible for a CFD Agreement. In this instance the Facility is the CFD Generator and the Generating Station is the whole site (i.e. including both the CFD Generator Unit and at least one other Generator Unit that is not part of the Facility). The net Metered Volume is the Gross Generation of the Facility less the Estimated Imported Electricity Allowance. If the CFD contract specifies either a Renewable Qualifying Multiplier (RQM) or a Combined Heat and Power Qualifying Multiplier (CHPQM) the LAMO is multiplied by this factor. The Estimated Imported Electricity Allowance is a calculation of the proportion of imported electricity used by the Facility. It is only to be used when the Facility demand for electricity cannot be measured separately from the demand of the Generating Station. The metering arrangement for this scenario is illustrated in the simplified single line diagram in Diagram 3 (11.3 Appendix 1). From that example it can be seen that the imported electricity for the Generating Station is measured by Meter M 2. To calculate the Estimated Imported Electricity Allowance the following calculation is performed: Where; Estimated Imported Electricity Allowance(MWh)=AI[M 2 ] B C AI[M 2 ] is the total Imported Input Electricity (MWh) used by the Generating Station in that Settlement Unit (i.e. 30 minute period); B is the lesser of the Installed Capacity (MW) and the Maximum Contract Capacity (MW) of the Facility as at such Settlement Unit. This is for the CFD Generator. C is the aggregate capacity (MW) of all Generating Units (including CFD Generator) comprising the Generating Station as at such Settlement Unit. If the Dual Scheme is part of the BSC Settlement System the Metering Equipment will meet the requirements as specified in the BSC Section L 5 and the applicable CoP 6, depending on the capacity of the circuit. The obligations for calibration, testing and commissioning of Metering Equipment are in CoP4. In an existing site, being used in CFD, the Metering System must meet the applicable CoP at the time of registration for Settlement, only if there has been a significant material change (e.g. replacement of switchgear containing Measurement Transformers) is the site required to upgrade to the current CoP. If the Dual Scheme is not part of the BSC Settlement System the Metering Equipment will meet the requirements as specified in the CFD Private Network Agreement. 5 http://www.elexon.co.uk/bsc-related-documents/balancing-settlement-code/bsc-sections/ 6 http://www.elexon.co.uk/bsc-related-documents/related-documents/codes-of-practice/ Page 9 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

6. What are the metering requirements for CFD Generators that are Offshore Wind and building the Facility in Phases? A site that is an Offshore Wind Farm that intends to build in a modular phased way over a period of years will have to meet the requirements of either the Single Metering or Apportioned Metering Phasing Agreement. If the Offshore Wind Farm is part of the BSC Settlement Metering System then the Metering Equipment will meet the requirements as specified in the BSC Section L 7 and the applicable CoP 8, depending on the capacity of the circuit. The obligations for calibration, testing and commissioning of Metering Equipment are in CoP4. See the Metering for Offshore Wind Farms Guidance Note 9 for more information on the requirements under the BSC. If the Offshore Wind Farm is not part of the BSC Settlement System the Metering Equipment will meet the requirements as specified in the CFD Private Network Agreement. 6.1 Single Metering Phasing In the Single Metering option each phase of the project must separately and accurately record the net Metered Volumes. So in the Electrical Schematic Diagram example shown in Diagram 4 (11.4 Appendix 1) Phase 1 was completed in 2015, Phase 2 in 2017 and Phase 3 in 2019 and each of these phases has a compliant Metering System installed to record the net generation of each phase. 6.2 Apportioned Metering Phasing In the Apportioned Metering option net Metered Volume is recorded for the whole project (i.e. all phases). This is achieved via one central metering point, as illustrated in the Electrical Schematic Diagram in Diagram 5 (11.5 Appendix 1). The total Metered Volume from that central point is then apportioned to each individual phase based on the overall functionality of that phase. The Metered Output in this case is the LAMO multiplied by the apportionment percentage of the relevant phase. The apportionment percentage is the sum of the turbine installed capacity of the relevant phase divided by the sum of the turbine installed capacity of all phases. 7 http://www.elexon.co.uk/bsc-related-documents/balancing-settlement-code/bsc-sections/ 8 http://www.elexon.co.uk/bsc-related-documents/related-documents/codes-of-practice/ 9 https://www.elexon.co.uk/bsc-related-documents/bsc-guidance-notes/ Page 10 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

7. What are the metering requirements for CFD Generators operating on a Private Network? 7.1 Metering Requirements A Generator that doesn t have a direct connection to the Total System (either Distribution or Transmission System) is considered to be operating on a Private Network. The Private Network will have a connection to the Total System. The Boundary Point of the Facility is the connection point to that Private Network. A CFD Generator operating on a Private Network must meet the additional requirements of the Private Network Metering Operational Framework (MOF) and the Technical System Requirements (TSR) in their CFD Agreement (Annex 6 & 7) 10. This includes the minimum specification that the Metering Equipment requires to be and the testing and commissioning requirements. Any Generator can choose to exceed these requirements to install a more robust and accurate Metering System. For example by installing a Meter of a better accuracy class than the specified minimum. There are two types of generator that can operate on a Private Network: Hybrid Generator A Generator that has access to a Grid Connection and has a Market Supply Agreement with an Onsite Customer; and Islanded Generator A Generator that has a Market Supply Agreement with an Onsite Customer but which does not have access to a Grid Connection. The DMP is at the connection point of the Facility to the Private Network. The preferred solution is for the point of measurement (i.e. CTs and VTs) to be located at this point so as one Metering System is measuring the net Metered Volume of the Facility, as illustrated in the Electrical Schematic Diagram in Diagram 6 (11.6 Appendix 1). Subject to approval by the LCCC the net Metered Volume of the Facility can be measured by multiple Meters and the net Metered Volume can be calculated, as illustrated in the Electrical Schematic Diagrams in Diagrams 7, 8 and 9 (11.7, 11.8 and 11.9 Appendix 1). In each example the Gross Generation of the CFD Generator is measured independently from the parasitic and site load. From these meters the net Metered Volume can be derived as follows: Net Metered Volume(MWh)=Gross Generation(MWh)-(Parasitic Load(MWh)+Other Site Load(MWh)) This is not the preferred option of the LCCC but an option that will be allowed if the LCCCs nominated representative is satisfied either from the Electrical Schematic Diagram or at the witnessing of commissioning and proving tests of the Metering System that net Metered Volume can be accurately recorded and reported. The Meter must be connected so that it is normally energised to allow interrogation for EMR settlement purposes. 10 https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/contracts-for-difference-standard-terms-and-conditions Page 11 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

7.2 Additional Conditions Precedent There is additional Operational Further Conditions Precedent related to metering in the Private Network Agreement, the Generator must submit: manufacturer s certificates for the installed Meters and metering CTs and VTs (to the relevant standards in the TSR); a Directors Certificate confirming that the Meters and Metering CTs and VTs have been calibrated, installed, commissioned, proved and tested; a Key Meter Technical Details Form (MOF Appendix 1); a report from a suitably qualified person (approved by the LCCC) confirming that the Facility Metering Equipment has satisfied all the testing requirements in the MOF & TSR; the Metering Access Contact Information; and the voltage class of the Facility for calculating LLF (this must be accompanied by a Directors Certificate certifying that the voltage class is correct). All Operational Conditions Precedent must be accompanied by a Directors Certificate certifying that the information contained in, and enclosed with, the Operational CP Notice is true, complete and accurate in all material respects and is not misleading, in each case by reference to the facts and circumstances then existing. The Key Meter Technical Details are the Meter serial numbers, the Outstation number of channels, the measurement quantity ID (e.g. AE for Active Export), the Meter multiplier, the pulse multiplier, the CT and/or VT serial numbers and the CT and/or VT ratios. The Generator is responsible for sealing of the Metering Equipment. This includes the Meters, Outstation, panel doors, potential fuses and test terminal facilities if not contained within a metering panel. A Re-Sealing Form (MOF Appendix 1) must be maintained and updated by the Generator. If any seal is broken or damaged the LCCC shall be notified. 7.3 Commissioning As a CFD Generator operating on a Private Network is not subject to the commissioning requirements in the BSC they are specified in the CFD Agreement in the MOF section. Prior to the Start Date the CFD Generator must perform an initial Metering Commissioning Test. The LCCC can choose to attend the metering commissioning and proving tests (they may opt to send a suitably qualified person to witness) or review the test results to determine compliance. If any of the Key Meter Technical Details have changed or any item of the Facility Metering Equipment is repaired / replaced another commissioning and proving test must be performed. A Metering Equipment Commissioning Record must be completed (MOF Appendix 1) for each commissioning test and submitted to the LCCC. The commissioning test must satisfy the requirements of the MOF Section 6. For every proving test (both main and check Meters) the results must be submitted to the LCCC. The proving test must satisfy the requirements of the MOF Section 7. The Generator may perform a subsequent Meter calibration test to check that the Meters are operating within the allowed error tolerances to determine whether it can be left in service. They will be checked Page 12 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

at various current values and power factors by an instrument of an accuracy class better than the Meter under test. The test instrument used must have a current calibration test certificate from a calibration laboratory that has been accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS), or a similarly accredited international body. These tests will be performed by secondary injection. The test results must be submitted using the relevant Subsequent Metering Calibration Test Record (MOF Appendix 1); either Class 1 Meters or Class 0.2s / 0.5s Meters. 7.4 Adjustment for Losses The LAMO will be adjusted for LLF and TLM by EMRS. LLF shall be applied from the Private Network connection point to the Distribution System to the Transmission System Boundary. Should the Facility be part of a Third Party Access site the electrical losses from the Private Network connection point of the Third Party Access site to the Boundary Point of the Private Network to the Total System should be calculated by the Private Network Operator using an approved methodology. This calculation of losses will have been validated through the Metering Dispensation (BSCP32 11 ) process that all Third Party Access sites are subject to. The CFD Generator must have a copy of the electrical losses methodology statement from the Private Network Operator if electrical losses for the Private Network have been applied. This will be in addition to the LLF for the Distribution System the Private Network is connected to. 7.5 Metering Faults The CFD Generator is required under the Metering Compliance Obligation to investigate any fault or issue with the Facility Metering Equipment of which it is notified by the LCCC or otherwise required to investigate pursuant to the MOF and the TSRs. Where individual items of Metering Equipment are to be replaced, then only those items need to be commissioned at that time. Metering Systems in their entirety do not need to be commissioned when items are replaced within that system unless there is a material change to the Metering System. A material change to a Metering System would be a change to: 1. Switchgear containing Measurement Transformers; and/or 2. The primary plant associated with the Metering System, i.e. Measurement Transformers. A material change to a Metering System would result in the need to ensure that all items of Metering Equipment comprising that Metering System are compliant with the latest version of the MOF / TSR. 11 https://www.elexon.co.uk/bsc-related-documents/related-documents/bscps/ Page 13 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

8. What are the test facility requirements? For any CFD Generator that has its Metering Equipment Registered in Settlements the test facilities must meet the requirements as specified in the applicable CoP 12 as a minimum, depending on the capacity of the circuit. For any CFD Generator that is operating on a Private Network the test facilities must meet the requirements of the MOF and the TSR specified in the terms of the CFD Agreement as a minimum. The Meter(s) are connected to the secondary side of the CTs and/or VTs via test terminal facilities and in the case of voltage connections also via fuses. These facilities should be configured so as to allow the Meter(s) to be isolated while the circuit is energised for test purposes or replacing the Meters. For CoP1 and CoP2 Metering Systems (and Type 1 Metering Systems on Private Networks) separate testing facilities shall be provided for the main and check Meters, this allows one Meter to be worked on or removed while the other continues to measure the required volumes. For CoP3 Metering Systems (and Type 2, Type 3 Metering Systems on Private Networks) testing facilities shall be provided close by the Meters of each circuit. If the option of using a second set of CTs for the check Meters is used in a Private Network Type 2 site separate testing facilities will be required for the main and check Meters. Effectively the testing facilities required are a separate test facility for each set of metering CTs. For all situations the Meters are separately fused. This is a minimum requirement and any CFD Generator in a CoP3 site or a Type 2, Type 3 Private Network site can install separate testing facilities for the main and check Meters should they wish, irrelevant of the number of sets of metering CTs installed. Examples of test facilities can be seen in Diagrams 10, 11 and 12 (11.10, 11.11 and 11.12 Appendix 1). Table 1 shows the relevant minimum requirements for the test facilities. Table 1: Minimum Test Facility Requirements Code of Practice Private Network Option Example CoP 1 Type 1 Diagram 10 CoP 2 13 (2 Sets of CTs / Windings) Type 2 1 (2 Sets of CTs / Windings) Diagram 10 CoP 2 1 (1 Set of CTs / Winding) Type 2 1 (1 Set of CTs / Winding) Diagram 11 CoP 3 Type 3 Diagram 12 An example of the type of test facility positions for normal running, isolation and testing can be seen in Diagram 13 (11.13 Appendix 1). Other types of test facility can be used; the example used is for illustration of the functionality required. 12 http://www.elexon.co.uk/bsc-related-documents/related-documents/codes-of-practice/ 13 In a CoP 2 and Type 2 metering solution there is an option to have a second CT or a second winding for the check Meter. If this option has been chosen a test facility is required for each CT or winding. Page 14 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

9. What are the Meter setup requirements? As a minimum the Half Hourly Meter must record Active Import (AI) and Active Export (AE) on a half hourly basis (i.e. an AI and AE load profile channel). If the Meter is also being used for BSC Settlement purposes there will be a requirement to record Reactive Energy in addition. All data will be in a Settlement Period format. This will be of 30 minute duration starting on the hour or half hour; there will be 48 periods in a day starting at 00:00hrs. Each Settlement Period will be in energy format (e.g. multiples of Wh). The Meter time will be set to Co-ordinated Universal Time (UTC), also known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). No switching between UTC and British Summer Time (BST) shall occur for Settlement Period data storage within the Meter. The display of the Meter will have a cumulative AI and AE register (if used for BSC purposes there will be Reactive Energy registers in addition), the CT & VT ratios, current date and time as a minimum. The method for submitting Metered Volumes to EMRS is described in WP195 Working Practice on Capacity Market and Contracts for Difference Metered Data 14. 10. Need more information?

11.4 Diagram 4 Single Metering This example shows the metering for the completed 3 Phases where, for example, Phase 1 was completed in 2015; Phase 2 was completed in 2017; and Phase 3 completed in 2019. Page 19 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

11.5 Diagram 5 Apportioned Metering One Central Meter Point This example shows the metering for the completed 3 Phases where, for example, Phase 1 was completed in 2015; Phase 2 was completed in 2017; and Phase 3 completed in 2019. For each Phase the Metered Output=LAMO x Apportionment Percentage. Where the apportionment percentage is the total installed capacity of the relevant phase divided by the total installed capacity of all phases. Page 20 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

11.6 Diagram 6 Private Network Preferred Option The supply for Generating Unit demand for electricity ( parasitic load ) and site load is accounted for in Meter M 1. This Meter is measuring the net Generation of the CFD Generator. LLF is the Private Network electrical losses (if applicable) and LDSO LLF combined. Page 21 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

11.7 Diagram 7 Private Network Option 1 The supply for Generating Unit demand for electricity ( parasitic load ) is accounted for in Meter M 2. The non-generation related demand of the CFD Generator is measured by Meter M 3. To get the net Generation of the CFD Generator subtract the parasitic load and non-generation related demand from the gross Generation recorded by Meter M 1. LLF is the Private Network electrical losses (if applicable) and LDSO LLF combined. Page 22 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

11.8 Diagram 8 Private Network Option 2 The supply for Generating Unit demand for electricity ( parasitic load ) is accounted for in Meter M 2. The non-generation related demand of the CFD Generator is measured by Meter M 3. To get the net Generation of the CFD Generator subtract the parasitic load and non-generation related demand from the gross Generation recorded by Meter M 1.

11.10 Diagram 10 Testing Facilities Option 1 An example of the minimum testing facilities required for a CoP1 and a Private Network Type 1 installation. A set of multi-core cables will come from the main VT or main winding for the main Meter and another set of multi-core cables will come from the check VT or check winding for the check Meter. Any other burden connected to the VT would be connected to the check winding and separately fused. A set of multi-core cables will come from the main CT or main winding for the main Meter and another set of multi-core cables will come from the check CT or check winding for the check Meter.

11.11 Diagram 11 Testing Facilities Option 2 An example of the minimum testing facilities required for a CoP2 installation. If a second set of CTs and/or VTs is used for the check Meter, refer to Diagram 10. One set of multi-core cables will come from the VT and be used for main and check Meter. The connections will be separated in the metering panel. Any other burden connected to the VT must be connected to another winding and separately fused.

11.12 Diagram 12 Testing Facilities Option 3 An example of the minimum testing facilities required for a CoP3 and a Private Network Type 2 and Type 3 installation. Only capable to be used in a Type 2 installation if one set of CTs is used. If a second set of CTs and/or a second VT is used for the check Meter refer to Diagram 10. One set of multi-core cables will come from the VT and be used for main and check Meter. The connections will be separated in the metering panel. Any other burden connected to the VT must be separately fused. Page 27 of 28 V1.0 EMR Settlement Limited 2015

11.13 Diagram 13 Testing Facilities Position Options Examples of the four modes of operation of the testing facilities connected to the CTs: Normal running position; Shorted position; Connection of a test instrument to prevailing load; and Shorted to allow secondary injection of the metering. Other types of test facilities are available and may have a different method of operation to the example illustrated. The instructions on the operation of the test facilities as provided by their manufacturer must be followed. The example used below is for illustration of the functionality required.
