Net Excess Generation Notes

The Customer shall be credited 5.6 cents per kwh, for Excess Generation. Energy produced by the Customer’s solar or wind renewable energy generator and consumed at the Customer’s location without flowing onto the Cooperative’s distribution system is not billed by the Cooperative, compensated by the Cooperative, or displayed on the billing statement. The Customer shall pay the full retail rate in accordance with the Cooperative’s standard service tariff applicable to the Customer for energy delivered to the Customer by the Cooperative. Any credit that is not used up during the current billing period shall be carried forward for use in subsequent billing periods.

SLD Reqs

The following information on these system components shall appear on the preliminary One-Line Diagram, including manufacturer make and model for the items listed below:

• Breakers - Rating, location and normal operating status (open or closed)
• Buses - Operating voltage
• Capacitors - Size of bank in kVAR
• Current Transformers - Overall ratio, connected ratio
• Fuses - normal operating status, rating (Amps), type
• Generators - Capacity rating (kVA), location, type, method of grounding
• Grounding Resistors - Size (ohms), current (Amps)
• Isolating transformers - Capacity rating (kVA), location, impedance, voltage ratings, primary and secondary connections and method of grounding
• Potential Transformers - Ratio, connection
• Reactors - Ohms/phase
• Relays - Types, quantity, IEEE device number, operator lines indicating the device initiated by the relays.
• Switches - Location and normal operating status (open or closed), type, rating
• Tagging Point - Location, identification

Install Reqs

AC Disconnect Required

• Must be approved for use on the Utility system.
• Must comply with current relevant ANSI and/or IEEE Standards.
• Must have load break capability, unless used in series with a three-phase interrupting device. 
• Must be rated for the application.
• If used as part of a protective relaying scheme, it must have adequate interrupting capability. The Utility will provide maximum short circuit currents and X/R ratios available at the PCC upon request.
• Must be operable and accessible by the Utility at all times (24 hours a day, 7 days a week)
• The Utility will determine if the isolation device will be used as a protective tagging point. If the determination is so made, the device must have a visible open break, provisions for padlocking in the open position and it must be gang operated. If the device has automatic operation, the controls must be located remote from the device.
