Common use of Technical and Interconnection Requirements Clause in Contracts

Technical and Interconnection Requirements. 6.1 The metering arrangement and the interconnection of the Renewable Energy Generating System with the network of RInfra shall be as per the provisions of the Net Metering Regulations and the technical standards and norms specified by the Central Electricity Authority for connectivity of distributed generation resources and for the installation and operation of meters. 6.2 The Eligible Consumer has installed or shall install an isolation device (both automatic and in-built within inverter and external manual relays) and agrees to provide RInfra full access to the same if required for repair and maintenance of the distribution network. 6.3 If the Eligible Consumer has opted for connectivity with a battery back- up, the inverter shall have a separate back-up wiring to prevent the battery / decentralized generation (DG) power from flowing into the distribution network in the absence of grid supply. 6.4 The Eligible Consumer shall provide appropriate protection for islanding of its Renewable Energy Generating System from the network of RInfra in the event of grid or supply failure. 6.5 The Eligible Consumer shall furnish all relevant data, such as voltage, frequency, circuit breaker, isolation position in the system, Test Certificates for equipments and installations as and when required by RInfra. 6.6 The Eligible Consumer shall take all reasonable precautions as regards the connection of its Renewable Energy Generating System to the distribution network of RInfra to prevent any adverse effect on the: (a) Use of the distribution system of the Distribution licensee; (b) Quality and reliability of supply of electricity through the distribution system of the Distribution licensee 6.7 The Eligible Consumer has installed or shall have installed, before the Effective Date, appropriate device/equipment for control of harmonics injected into the distribution network due to generation of electricity from the Renewable Energy Generating System. Provided that if, at any time, RInfra determines that the Eligible Consumer’s Renewable Energy Generating System is not complying with the relevant IEEE Standards regarding control and prevention of harmonics, the Eligible Consumer shall forthwith disconnect its Renewable Energy Generating System from the network of RInfra, upon direction of RInfra and shall install necessary harmonic suppression equipment and/or undertake repairs as may be required, at his own expense prior to seeking reconnection. Provided further that RInfra shall be authorised to charge the Eligible Consumer penalty, if any and in the manner, as may be specified by the Commission from time to time for injection of harmonics into the grid.
