CP1291 – Clarify requirements on Meter Administrators relating to Equivalent Meters

Formal title: Clarify requirements on Meter Administrators relating to Equivalent Meters

Summary

Elexon raised CP1291 on behalf of the Meter Administrator Expert Group (MAEG). The CP recommends changes to BSCP520 to: establish Population, Amendment and reporting of data within an Equivalent Meter (EM); clarify Fault Reporting; and include a requirement for a Technical Specification for EM Calculations. The inclusion of a Specification for EM calculations will assist the Auditor in assessing the MA action in executing its obligations under BSCP520. It will also ensure that MAs are clear on their obligations. The CP also proposes to clarify the MA responsibilities when managing faults, which is particularly important for new entrants, who may not be familiar with the arrangements
