CP1236 – Clarification of De-Energised and Disconnection Processes – Obligations under BSCP 515
Formal title: Clarification of De-Energised and Disconnection Processes - Obligations under BSCP 515
Current Status
Summary
The BSC Auditors have reported compliance failures with respect to LDSO’s not meeting the 5 Working Days (WDs) to issue confirmation of a change on energisation status (D0139), an obligation in BSCP515. The reported failures relate to the BSC Auditor’s interpretation that the 5 WDs relates to the time of the request or the proposed date of visit contained within the flow, rather than the actual date of energisation. CP1236 was raised by ScottishPower and proposes amendments to BSCP515 to provide clarity regarding the issuing of a change of energisation status (D0139 flow) to prevent further differing interpretation of the code.
