List of all BSC Change Proposals
CP1580 Making the Code Subsidiary Documents (CSDs) gender neutral and Housekeeping
CP1580 seeks to make the Code Subsidiary Documents (CSD) gender-neutral in line with the Balancing and Settlement Code (BSC) and present day legal drafting and to correct BSCP602 with a housekeeping change.
CP1579 Allowing HHDCs to undergo Protocol Approval before completing Qualification
This Change Proposal will allow Half Hourly Data Collectors (HHDCs) and Asset Metering Half Hourly Data Collectors (AMHHDCs) to undergo Protocol Approval before or during the Qualification process.
CP1578 Enabling Embedded LDSOs to submit Site Specific LLFs
This CP proposes updates to remove issues that may stop Embedded LDSOs from submitting Site Specific LLFs. These updates will define the process for submitting Site Specific LLFs, including establishing deadlines and requirements for the Embedded and Host LDSOs.
CP1577 To clarify the sending of a D0151 is required for all COS NHH loss processes
BSCP504 requires the outgoing supplier to send a D0151 to terminate their NHHDC appointment on Change of Supply. The positioning of clause 3.2.6.4(a) implies this is only required for non DCC serviced metering systems, whereas this should be a requirement for all metering systems. This CP amend BSCP504 to clarify that 3.2.6.4(a) applies to all Metering Systems.
CP1576 New Interconnector Fuel Type Category: Viking Link
Changes are needed to the Balancing Mechanism Reporting Service (BMRS) to ensure data relating to the new Viking Link Interconnector is provided to market participants alongside existing data relating to Settlement arrangements in the Great Britain (GB) electricity market.
CP1575 Permitting the use of busbar voltage transformers within metering Codes of Practice 1 and 2
This CP seeks to implement the recommendation from the Issue 87 ‘Busbar voltage transformer (VT) metering for Offshore wind farms under OFTO arrangements’ Workgroup by updating Code of Practice 1 and Code of Practice 2 to allow busbar VTs to be used at Offshore and onshore wind farms.
CP1574 Improving the use of the D0215 data flow in the relevant industry processes
This CP seeks to implement the recommendation from the Issue 99 Workgroup, which involves updating Balancing and Settlement Code Procedure (BSCP) 515 ‘Licensed Distribution’ and the Retail Energy Code (REC) Meter Operator Schedule 14 documents to streamline the use of the D0215 flow in its associated processes.
CP1573 Amendments to the IDD Pt 1 Spreadsheet, SVA DC and REC EMAR Data Specification for P376
This Change Proposal seeks to amend the IDD Part 1 Spreadsheet, SVA Data Catalogue Volume 2 and the Retail Energy Code’s’ EMAR Data Specification to ensure that the BSC Configurable Items accurately reflect the P376 solution.
CP1572 Specifying the requirements to provide SLDs for HV and EHV sites
Currently there is no requirement in the BSC to produce SLDs despite a number of BSC processes requiring one to be submitted. Without the requirement to produce SLDs being specified, some Parties have not felt incentivised to create them.
CP1571 Clarify the number of Meter measuring elements and measurement transformers
The Metering Codes of Practice (CoPs) specify the number of measuring elements required to be metered in relation to the number of primary system conductors. However, the requirements don’t appear to be sufficiently clear or are not being complied with.
