Firstly I’m in the UK.
Has anyone out there made an application using ‘G98 Form C’ to connect to the Grid. My situation is that I have Battery storage and I’m NOT exporting. Any guidance /advice would be hugely appreciated.
Why no export? But start with what you are connecting so we can see G98 should be straightforward PS there is a thread with G99 have a look at that as I’m sure they are very similar
Hi Daza, I’m a tight bugger that has 30KW of batteries and a 100 Gallon how water tank (+ Tesla)
Don’t impose limits on export let the DNO do that. What is the inverter you are connecting?
Thank you. I’ll have a look at the thread you suggested…
I’m using a Multiplus 2
lol what model? Should say rating
A 5KW MP2 with EpEver solar charger and a Cerbo GX
@PaulFairlight sorry mate no point in G98 they will decline you regardless of 0 export as the inverter is rated at 4.4kW as far as they are concerned it just has to have the potential to export and that’s above the 3.68kW for G98
Ahh but the Grid code is set to G98 (3.6KW I think it was).
I think I hear what you are saying and just go for a G99 application?
Yes just go G99 30kWh of battery 3.6kW is going to take a while and if your emptying that it’s going to get really close to the finish of off peak before fully charged or not get there at all
Thank you Daza. Have you ever made an g99 DNO application?
Only though my DNO a couple of time head over to the thread G99 avoidance. If your DNO has an online portal do it on that.
PS you need to know what fuse is in the service head the earthing arrangement if your on a looped supply
Huge thanks for your help. I’m form filling now… Wish me luck!
All the best but pop over to that thread as I put on a single line diagram that you will need as an example and OP and another have added theirs hope that helps
Just to make sure, is this the thread ?.. UK G99 DNO approval, self install commissioning help
No mate it’s this G99 avoidance question - #87 by mfred868
join the club! i fear having to pay 3 and 4 figure sums to a third party just to get g99, it could be a rip off if not careful
I started the g99 avoidance thread.
Thank you mfred868.
Really appreciate your help. I’m off to your thread …
Thank you Daza! Really appreciate your help
