DCRP/MP/23/01: - Engineering Report P28
What is being proposed
This Modification has been raised to assess the requirement to develop an Engineering Report, to provide supportive guidance on the technical application of specific areas of guidance provided in the current version of Engineering Recommendation P28 Issue 2.This Engineering Report is currently in early development, and will be Explanatory in nature. No change to EREC P28 is expected as part of this modification.
Details
Analysis
Distribution network operators assess whether to create explanatory guidance supporting Engineering Recommendation P28 Issue 2, which sets technical standards for distributed generation connections. The proposed Engineering Report would provide additional technical application guidance but would not change P28 itself. No timeline or specific technical areas are identified.
Why it matters
Administrative housekeeping that adds process without changing connection standards. Guidance on guidance creates additional documentation burden without addressing the underlying technical barriers that P28 creates for distributed generation.
