SVA Line Loss Factor Data

The table below provides SVA Line Loss Factor Data for individual Licensed Distribution System Operators (LDSOs).

Four files for each LDSO are available for download: a full file D0265 flow in ‘Standard Pool’; ‘Pool Transfer’; ‘User File’ formats; and a Summary Report.

Where Line Loss Factors are updated over the course of the BSC Year, the published files are replaced by new versions which do not include information on Settlement Dates prior to the ‘Effective From Date’ of these new LLFCs.

The data below is often updated throughout the course of a year. If you require an earlier version from the year other than that currently displayed, please contact the ELEXON Helpdesk and it will be distributed within 10 working days.

Full and Summarised Data - 01/04/08 – 31/03/09

To clearly identify each file they are named according to the following convention:
 LLF<LDSO><Date><Format><Version>.<Type>

Where:

LDSO will be the four character Supplier Volume Allocation (SVA) Market Participant ID
Date will indicate the first Settlement Date to which this file relates in the form YYYYMMDD
Format will indicate which of the four file formats is used:
SPF – Standard Pool Format
PTF – Pool Transfer Format
UFF – User File Format
SUM – Summary Report
Version will be a two digit version number for the file and will have a leading zero added when less than 10
Type will indicate the underlying file type:
ZIP – ZIP file format
TXT – UNIX file format

In cases where Line Loss Factor Classes (LLFCs) are discontinued, ELEXON does not receive updated D0265 flows or summary files. To monitor whether a LLFC has been discontinued Market Domain Data should be consulted to establish whether the LLFC has an ‘Effective To Date’. In such cases Line Loss Factors pertaining to a LLFC after that date should be disregarded.

The day types, as described in the summary report, have not changed since the implementation of the British Electricity Transmissions and Trading Arrangement (BETTA), so will not take account of the different bank holidays in Scotland.

For details of these file formats please refer to the ElectraLink Data Transfer Handbook, as well as the PDF IconSVA Data Catalogue(2.1Mb) or PDF IconBSCP528(86Kb) published in the BSC and Related Documents section.

Please Note: The size of each file published in full format (D0265) is approximately 0.5 - 1.0 MB after compression.

Should you experience any difficulty in viewing the data displayed on this page please contact the ELEXON Helpdesk on 020 7380 4222 or by emailing helpdesk@elexon.co.uk.
