Electricity Transmission Regulations 1996

In this regulation and regulations 22, 23 and 25 —

the group of connections in respect of a user’s access agreement consists of the entry points and exit points specified in the access agreement and the entry points from which standby power is being supplied to one or more of those connections;

if the Electricity Generation and Retail Corporation is providing standby power under an arrangement with a user, then that standby power is to be taken to have been supplied at the connection for Muja power station;

the energy entry amount for the group of connections in respect of an access agreement for a period is determined by applying the following formula:

where —

EEA (in kWh) is the energy entry amount for the group of connections in respect of the access agreement for the period;

ETEntry_j (in kWh) is the quantity of electricity transferred at entry point_j to the electricity transmission network during the period under the access agreement;

LFEntry_j (a rate) is the loss factor for entry point_j determined under regulation 20;

the variable “j” represents an entry point which is one of the group of connections;

the variable “n” represents the number of entry points in the group of connections;

the energy exit amount for the group of connections in respect of a user’s access agreement for a period is determined by applying the following formula:

where —

EEXA (in kWh) is the energy exit amount for the group of connections in respect of the access agreement for the period;

ETExit_i (in kWh) is the quantity of electricity transferred at exit point_i from the electricity transmission network during the period under the access agreement;

LFExit_i (a rate) is the loss factor for exit point_i determined under regulation 20;

the variable “i” represents an exit point which is one of the group of connections;

the variable “n” represents the number of exit points in the group of connections;

the permitted tolerance for a group of connections is —

an amount expressed in kWh equal to 3% of the relevant amount in respect of the group of connections; or

in a case where —

the access agreement is for transporting electricity any of which is derived from a renewable energy source; and

the user was a party to an agreement of that kind when the Electricity Distribution Amendment Regulations (No. 2) 2004 commenced,

1500 kWh;

and

the relevant amount (expressed in kWh) in respect of a group of connections is equal to the aggregate of the contract maximum demand figures for all of the exit points in respect of the group of connections divided by 2.
