When accessing electric power transmission services under conditions of limited throughput of electric networks, the possibility of charging an additional fee is excluded.

31. Restriction of the right to receive electric energy is possible only in case of deviation from normal modes of functioning of the electric network caused by emergency situations and (or) the decommissioning of electric power facilities for repair or decommissioning and leading to a power shortage.

In this case, the limitation of the consumption of electric energy is carried out in accordance with the acts of coordination of emergency and technological armor.

32. The capacity of the electric network is determined by the design scheme of the Unified Energy System of Russia, developed by the system operator in conjunction with the organization managing the unified national (all-Russian) electric network, taking into account the forecast balances of electric energy and power. When carrying out such calculations, repair schedules of the main generating equipment (agreed with the generating companies), equipment of electrical substations and power lines, and power-receiving equipment of consumers of electric energy with controlled load are also taken into account.

The system operator and the organization managing the unified national (all-Russian) electric network communicate to the market participants information on the limitations of the capacity of the electric network, including the results of these calculations.

IV. The procedure for setting tariffs for services for the transfer of electric energy, which provides for accounting for the degree of use of power of the electric network

33. Tariffs for electric power transmission services are established taking into account the use by consumers of the indicated services of the power of the electric network to which they are directly technologically connected.

34. A service consumer must notify the network organization of the declared capacity for the coming calendar year at least 6 months before the next tariff regulation period, which reflects the degree of power utilization by the service consumer.

The value of the declared capacity is determined in relation to each point of connection and cannot exceed the maximum connected capacity at the corresponding point of connection to the network of this consumer of services.

In the absence of the specified notification of the declared capacity when setting tariffs, the maximum connected capacity of the power receiving device (power plant) of the service consumer is adopted.

When determining the basis for setting tariffs for the next regulatory period, the network organization has the right to use for consumers of services that systematically exceed the amount of declared capacity, the amount of capacity declared by the consumer for the next regulation period or the actual amount of used capacity for the past period.

35. Tariffs for electric energy transmission services are set in accordance with the pricing principles for electric and thermal energy in the Russian Federation and the rules of state regulation and application of tariffs for electric and thermal energy in the Russian Federation taking into account paragraph 34 of these Rules.

Consumers of services pay losses of electric energy in excess of the norm in case it is proved that the losses occurred due to the fault of these consumers of services.

39. The amount of loss of electric energy in electric networks, which is part of the fee for services for the transfer of electric energy, is determined on the basis of the standard for losses of electric energy. Loss ratios are established by the authorized federal executive body in accordance with these Rules and the methodology for determining normative and actual losses of electric energy in electric networks.

40. The standards for electric energy losses in electric networks are established in relation to the totality of power lines and other electric grid facilities owned by the respective grid organization, taking into account differentiation by voltage levels of networks when setting tariffs for electric power transmission services.

41. The methodology for determining the regulatory and actual losses of electric energy in electric networks should provide for the calculation of losses based on:

technical characteristics of power lines and other electric grid facilities that determine the amount of variable losses in accordance with the technology of transmission and conversion of electric energy;

normative conditionally constant losses for power lines, power transformers and other electric grid facilities;

regulatory losses in electric energy measuring instruments.

When setting standards, the technical condition of power lines and other facilities of the power grid economy may also be taken into account.

42. Network organizations buy electric energy in order to compensate for the loss of electric energy in their networks:

in the wholesale market of electric energy;

if the grid organization is not a participant in the wholesale electric energy market, - in the retail electric energy market at the place of its activity.

VI. The procedure for the provision and disclosure by network organizations of information on the throughput of electric networks, on their technical characteristics and on the cost of services for the transmission of electric energy

43. The network organization discloses information on the throughput of electric networks and on their technical characteristics in accordance with the standards of information disclosure by subjects of the wholesale and retail electric energy markets.

The connection of certain real estate to electric networks is carried out in the framework of technological connection agreements. Their conclusion is regulated at the level of federal legal acts. What are the key provisions of these sources of law? What are the nuances of connecting objects belonging to individuals and legal entities to electric networks?

  regulation

The way in which technological connections to electric networks should be carried out is regulated by a separate legal act - Decree of the Government of Russia No. 861, adopted on December 27, 2004. This regulatory source has established a number of rules:

On non-discriminatory access of persons to electricity transmission services, dispatch control, as well as trade infrastructure provided by the administrator in the framework of the wholesale market;

On the technological connection of energy reception devices belonging to consumers and other facilities.

In general, the totality of these norms forms the rules for technological connection. Consider the features of this procedure in more detail.

In what cases is the technological connection carried out?

Technological connections to electric networks can be carried out if:

Power receiving devices are put into operation for the first time;

The capacity of previously connected infrastructure of the corresponding type is increasing;

The data on the categories of reliability of supply of devices, connection points, types of economic activity of consumers of electricity were changed, as a result of which adjustments were made in the scheme of external supply of devices for receiving electricity.

Technological connection - a procedure that is carried out on the basis of an agreement between a supplier - a network company, and an applicant in the status of an individual, individual entrepreneur or organization. Technological connections to electric networks are carried out in several stages. Consider them.

Process Connection Stages

The technological rules for connecting to electric networks imply the implementation of this procedure as part of such steps as:

Submission of an application for accession;

Signing a contract with a supplier;

Fulfillment of contractual obligations;

Obtaining permission to admit facilities into operation;

Actual connection and voltage supply;

Drawing up an act of accession and related documents.

We study the specifics of the marked stages in more detail.

Joining steps: filing an application

So, first of all, for the purpose of technological connection, this or that subject of legal relations submits an application to the supplier - the network company, which is located at the closest distance to the applicant’s territory. If necessary, the supplier’s contact details can be provided by the municipal authority.

An application for technological connection to electric networks is sent by the customer in person or through an authorized person. You can also send the corresponding document to the network company by letter. In some cases, suppliers are asked to agree in advance on how to apply by telephone. But in any case, it is recommended to contact the network company in advance and find out which method of document transfer will be optimal.

Contract signing

After the application for technological connection to electric networks is processed by the supplier, the relevant organization draws up and sends the customer a draft contract, as well as technical specifications as an appendix to it. The network company should generally prepare and send the contract to the customer within 30 days from the receipt of the application.

If the partner is not satisfied with the terms of the contract, then he has the right to send to the supplier the reasoned refusal to conclude the contract, as well as proposals for its adjustment. If, within 60 days from the receipt of the draft contract, the customer does not confirm his consent to conclude it or does not express a desire to amend it, the application for accession is canceled. But as soon as the copy signed by the customer is received by the network company, the contract between it and the consumer is considered concluded.

Fulfillment of the terms of the contract

Technological connection to electric networks is a legal relationship in which the emergence of the rights and obligations of the parties is assumed. Their list is prescribed in the contract, which is executed and concluded by the electricity supplier and the consumer at the previous stage. After the contract is signed, the parties must implement the activities provided for by it. Their list can be presented in a fairly wide range - but basically these measures are aimed at preparing the necessary infrastructure for launching facilities into operation.

Authorization from authorities

Technological connections to electric networks can be made only if the admission of certain objects to operation is authorized by the competent federal authority that carries out technological supervision. It should be noted that the Rules of Accession, approved by law, may prescribe cases in which obtaining the appropriate permission is not required for certain categories of applicants.

Actual connection and supply of electricity

After permission for technological connection is obtained, actual connection of customer facilities to electric networks can be carried out. As part of this procedure, various technical measures can be carried out related to the adjustment of the applicant's infrastructure and the supply of electricity to it. After the necessary network parameters are checked and their activation is allowed, electricity is supplied.

  about joining

The final stage of the technological connection procedure is the signing of an act on its implementation. In addition, the preparation of this document may be accompanied by the formation of a number of other sources. In particular, such as the act on delineation of the balance sheet, on operational responsibility, coordination of technological or emergency reservation.

Let us consider in more detail what specific measures are implemented as part of a procedure such as technological connection to electric networks. Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 861 also governs their list.

Joining Events

Relevant activities include:

Preparation of technical specifications;

Development of design documentation;

Fulfillment of technical specifications;

Inspection of devices for receiving electricity;

Actual connection and activation of the switching infrastructure.

Consider the specifics of these events in more detail.

Technological connection measures: preparation of technical conditions

The rules for connecting to electric networks prescribe this measure. In addition, this company must also coordinate with the system operator - the person who performs operational dispatch functions in electric power systems, as well as with related organizations that provide electricity supply services, in cases established by law .

Development of design documentation

The development of the relevant documentation is carried out by both the network company and the customer of the connection. In this case, the first subject of legal relations must follow the obligations that are prescribed in the technical conditions. The customer carries out the development of this documentation, in particular if a technological connection is made to the electrical networks of the land. In this case, it needs to reflect the borders of the corresponding territory. Note that in some legal relations, the development of design documentation by the customer is not carried out.

Fulfillment of technical specifications

The next event to be carried out as part of the technological connection procedure is the fulfillment of the approved technical conditions. In this case, the tasks are assigned, again, to both the network company and its customer. The first subject of legal relations, in particular, is responsible for connecting devices for receiving electricity to the infrastructure that provides emergency operation of automation.

The event under consideration also involves a network company verifying that the customer has completed the technical conditions. The results of this procedure, the technological rules for connecting to electric networks are prescribed to be recorded in separate acts. This check is not carried out if:

The maximum power of devices for receiving electricity owned by the applicants does not exceed 150 kW as part of a temporary connection;

The applicant is an individual and his equipment has a capacity not exceeding 15 kW.

Device inspection

This event, in turn, should be carried out by a representative of the competent federal authority, which is responsible for conducting state supervision in the field of electricity supplies. In addition, the grid company and the owner of the devices for receiving electricity can also participate in the survey. In some cases, the representative of the organization performing operational dispatching functions is connected to the event in question.

Actual affiliate

This event actually corresponds to one of the stages considered by us above, which establish the rules for technological connection to electric networks. So, it is supposed to connect the customer’s facilities to the power grid, after which it will activate the switching infrastructure. Similarly, as soon as the relevant event is completed, acts are signed: on accession, delimitation of the balance sheet, operational responsibility, approval of the reservation.

The most important aspect of legal relations, within the framework of which technological connection of objects to electric networks is carried out is payment for the services of electricity suppliers. Let's consider it in more detail.

Payment for electricity providers

Payment for technological connection to electric networks - IDGC or another supplier - is carried out in accordance with tariffs approved by the relevant organization, rates per unit of capacity, as well as payment formulas. In addition, the customer may need to pay expenses that, from the point of view of the law, are not included in the connection fee. Lists of these costs are usually recorded in separate legal acts adopted by authorities of the Russian regions.

It can be noted that in many cases, customers of network companies are budget organizations. In this case, they need to correctly reflect in the balance sheet the costs of technological connection to electric networks. KOSGU - Classification of operations of the general government sector, requires budgetary institutions to fix these costs in the framework of Section 226.

Certain nuances are characterized by connection to the networks of private residential buildings. Let's consider them in more detail.

Connection to electricity networks of private houses

The rules of accession are generally based on the same rules of law that govern the corresponding procedure, to which legal entities are participants. The algorithm for solving the problem of connecting an individual to a house’s power grid involves the following main actions:

Appeals to the network company - the closest to the land,

Filing to the appropriate organization an application, an arrangement plan for devices for receiving electricity,

Copies of documents proving ownership of the private house and land,

Receiving and fulfilling the technical conditions - independently within the site, with the assistance of the network company - outside it,

Organization of inspection of equipment of network companies and its actual connection.

In general, the actions of the owner of the house are obviously similar to those that characterize the tasks of the organization-customer of the services of the network company, which we examined above in the context of technological connection activities. In this sense, the legislator's approaches to regulating this procedure are characterized by uniformity.

At the same time, it is quite possible that one or another rule of connecting electrical installations to electric networks, formulated in a certain way in the legislation, in practice can be interpreted differently in the context of solving problems characterizing the connection of corporate and private facilities. Therefore, in order to conduct the process of technological connection in full compliance with the requirements of the legislation, it is advisable for the owner of the house to seek the advice of competent specialists.

The cost of services for connecting to electrical networks of residential buildings is usually based on calculations, which are based on a tariff for 15 kW of connected power. The distance of the apartment building to the nearest property is also important. If it exceeds the statutory figures, technological connections to electric networks are carried out on the basis of the tariff determined by orders of regional authorities. For example, the tariff service or the energy commission.

The terms for connecting residential buildings to power grids should not exceed 6 months if the supplier’s energy infrastructure is located at a distance of up to 300 meters from the customer’s property in the city, or within 500 meters in the countryside. This period is extended to 1 year if the distance exceeds the specified values.

Upon completion of the connection of the house to the power grid, as well as in the case of legal relations involving legal entities, acts are signed on technological connection, delimitation of the balance and operational responsibility of the customer and the supplier.

Attention! The technological connection procedure is of a one-time nature:
- payment for technological connection is charged once;
- when changing the form of ownership or the owner (applicant or network organization), a new procedure for technological connection is not required;
- a change in the form of ownership or owner (applicant or network organization) does not entail a repeated payment for technological connection.

4. Filing an application for technological connection

4.1. When deciding on which network organization to submit an application for technological connection, attention should be paid to the distance from the boundaries of the applicant's site to nearby electric grid facilities of the network organization.
The distance from the boundaries of the applicant’s site to the electric grid facilities of the network organization is understood as the minimum distance measured in a straight line from the site’s border (finding connected power receivers) of the applicant to the nearest electric network object (power transmission towers, cable line, switchgear, substation) having voltage class specified in the application, existing or planned for commissioning in accordance with the investment program of the network organization Anisation approved in accordance with the established procedure and within the time limits established for technological connection (see clause 3.5).
If at a distance of less than 300 meters from the boundaries of the applicant’s site there are electric grid facilities of several network organizations, the applicant has the right to send an application to any of them. This rule does not apply to applicants who intend to carry out technological connection of power receiving devices on an individual project.
If at a distance of less than 300 meters from the boundaries of the applicant’s site there is only one network organization, the applicant sends the application to this network organization.
If all electric grid facilities of all grid organizations are located at a distance of 300 meters or more from the boundaries of the site, the applicant must send an application to conclude a contract to the network organization, whose electric grid facilities are located at the smallest distance from the boundaries of the applicant’s site.
Attention! The requirements of the network organization for the applicant to independently resolve issues related to indirect connection (i.e. connection to third-party electric networks) are unreasonable. The grid organization is obliged to resolve issues with the owner of the electric grid facilities, through the objects of which indirect connection will be carried out.
4.2. The application is sent by the applicant to the network organization in 2 copies by a letter with a description of the attachment. The applicant is entitled to submit the application through an authorized representative, and the network organization is obliged to accept such an application.

11. Answers to frequently asked questions about technological connection problems

1. Question: I submitted documents for connecting a house to electric networks to a Network Organization. After 2 weeks, we were informed that our documents were sent to the Private Grid Company, but there are no Grid lines in our area. In a private network company, they charge a lot of money for connecting a house to a power line for each connected kW and increased tariffs for paying for electric energy. What should we do in this situation?
Answer: You need to determine what is the distance from the borders of your land to the nearest electric grid facility of the Network Organization. If this distance is 300 meters or more, then the Network Organization has done the right thing. If the distance is less than 300 meters, then the Network Organization unreasonably refuses to conclude an agreement with you and you have the right to appeal its actions in the prescribed manner.
A private grid organization does not have the right to independently determine the size of the cost of technological connection to its electric networks, as well as the cost of services for the transmission of electric energy through its networks. These tariffs are subject to state regulation and their sizes are established by state bodies authorized for state regulation of tariffs. Moreover, if the power declared by you is up to 15 kW inclusive, the cost of technological connection for you should not exceed 550 rubles.
If the Private Network Organization independently determines the cost of technological connection and the price of services for the transfer of electric energy, it violates the law, including antitrust. You have the right to appeal the actions of the Private Network Organization in the prescribed manner.

2. Question: I submitted an application for technological connection to electric networks to the Network Organization. Due to the lack of reaction of the Network Organization, I wrote a letter to the Network Organization complaining about the delay in the procedure for executing the contract. In response to the complaint, I received a letter with a proposal to conclude a contract with a suspensive condition, according to which the implementation of activities by the Network Organization will be carried out within 6 months from the date of the beginning of the regulatory act of the executive authority in the field of tariff regulation, including the lost revenue of the network organization from connection power receivers with a maximum power not exceeding 15 kW inclusive, in the tariff for the provision of services for the transfer of electric energy.
Answer: This is a gross violation by the Network Organization. The network organization is obliged to conclude an agreement with you and to carry out technological connection activities on time, regardless of when the decision of the regulatory body on compensation for the lost expenses of the network organization is made and comes into force.

3. Question: I submitted an application to the Network Organization, received an agreement on the implementation of technological connection and technical conditions. Due to the fact that the agreement did not comply with the Rules of technological connection, I sent a request to the Network Organization to amend this agreement and bring it into line with the law. What was verbally refused. Are the actions of the Network Organization legitimate?
Answer: If the Grid organization receives from the applicant a refusal to sign the contract due to the fact that it does not comply with the legislation, the Grid organization is obliged to bring the draft contract in accordance with the Rules of technological connection within 5 working days from the date of receipt of such a requirement and submit to the applicant a new edition draft agreement for signing. The failure of the Network Organization in such a situation is unlawful.

4. Question: I submitted an application for technological connection of a 4 kW facility to the Network Organization. For 3 months I constantly called the Network Organization and received the same answer: "Your application is under consideration." After I contacted the website of the Network Organization, I received an answer that the terms for considering applications for the issuance of technical conditions are up to 40 days, but due to the workload of specialists, the terms can be increased. In the end, they refused to issue technical conditions due to the overloaded substation.
Answer: The network organization was obliged to send you the draft contract completed and signed by it and the technical specifications no later than 30 days from the date of receipt of your application. The actions of the Network Organization to delay the sending of these documents to you are unlawful.
In addition, the Network Organization is not entitled to refuse to carry out technological connection due to the load on the substation. You have the right to appeal the actions of the Network Organization in the prescribed manner.

5. Question: I can’t get consent from a neighbor to join the power line, which he partially pulled, since it requires a considerable amount. Does the state somehow regulate this issue, how much can it request from us?
Answer: You are not required to obtain consent from a neighbor to join the power line, which he partially pulled. You must apply for technological connection to the Network Organization. The network organization is obliged to independently resolve all issues with indirect accession through the objects of your neighbor. If the Network organization cannot resolve issues with your neighbor, it is obliged to carry out technological connection in another way.
Moreover, if the power you connect is up to 15 kW inclusive, you pay no more than 550 rubles.
Your neighbor is not entitled to demand payment of money from him. If the technological connection is carried out indirectly, through the objects of your neighbor, he will not have the right to impede the flow of electric energy and does not have the right to demand payment for this. If the owner of electric grid facilities through which an indirect technological connection is made wishes to receive remuneration for this, he should contact the regulatory tariff body, which will establish a tariff for the services rendered to him. At the same time, it will be entrusted with all the obligations that are assigned by the legislation to the network organization.
This conclusion follows from the Rules of non-discriminatory access to electric energy transmission services, the Rules for technological connection, approved by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated December 27, 2004 No. 861.

6. Question: Is the network organization entitled to demand payment for a technological connection (that was the requirement of the client department employees) before I received a draft agreement on technological connection and draft technical conditions?
Answer: The network organization does not have the right to require you to pay a fee for technological connection before you receive the draft contract and technical conditions, since the contract has not yet been concluded with you. An agreement on technological connection is considered concluded from the moment the Network Organization receives the agreement signed by the applicant. Only after that you have obligations to pay for technological connection.

7. Question: The Director of the Network organization signed my application for the technical conditions for the connection of an object with a capacity of 3 kW and sent me to the company LLC with the words "he will solve all other issues." The company LLC concluded an agreement with me on the implementation of design work and an agreement on installation work and their coordination. The total cost of work under the contracts is more than 60,000 rubles. Are the actions of the Network organization and the company LLC legitimate?
Answer: The applicant independently determines which organization will carry out design and installation work within the boundaries of his site (naturally, by agreement with such an organization and if such work is necessary to be carried out). Design and installation work for the applicant can be performed by any organization that engages in these types of activities. If the Network organization imposes on the applicant a specific company that will carry out design and installation work for the applicant, such actions are unlawful. The most stringent liability is established for the coordinated actions of the Network Organization and other persons that lead to restriction of competition and infringement of the interests of consumers of technological connection services by antimonopoly legislation.

8. Question: I need to connect an object with an output of 8 kW to electric networks. Are the actions of the Network Organization legal, which requires me to pay the cost of technological connection in the amount of 4400 rubles, plus VAT, at the rate of 550 rubles. for every kW of power?
Answer: The actions of the Network Organization are illegal. In this case, the cost of technological connection as a whole should not exceed 550 rubles. Moreover, if you are an individual, VAT is already included in this price.

9. Question: The distance from the border of my land plot to the nearest support of the Network Organization is about 6 meters, and the declared maximum power is 5 kW.
When applying for technological connection, I was asked to use a standard modular scheme. To my comment, the representative of the Network Organization replied that the approved schemes will be later and this issue will be resolved at the stage of preparing the contract and technical conditions.
Later, they called me to the office of the Network Organization with a proposal to get acquainted with the draft contract and urgently sign it.
The contract was not presented in full, there were no technical conditions in the contract. In addition, the contract contains requirements for my Network Organization to provide Rostekhnadzor permission to permit the operation of a residential building’s power plant. In addition, in the submitted draft contract, I am offered technological connection for an individual project.
Are the actions of the Network Organization legitimate?

Answer: The network organization committed a set of violations:
1) standard modular technological connection schemes must be approved by the Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation. They are not currently approved. Consequently, the Network Organization does not have the right to demand the submission of a modular scheme by you and does not have the right to refuse you technological connection because of their failure to submit;
2) The network organization does not have the right to demand the urgent (immediate) signing of a draft contract by you. You have the right to sign it within 30 days from the date of receipt of the contract filled out and signed by the Network Organization;
3) the contract must contain technical conditions;
4) for the connection of power plants of your residential building with a capacity of 5 kW, it is not required to obtain a permit from Rostekhnadzor for access to operation;
5) technological connection in your case is carried out in a general manner, and not according to an individual project (power plant capacity is 5 kW).

10. Question: I have submitted an application for the connection of an 8 kW facility. According to the received technical conditions, I have to mount VL-038kV from the RU-04kv GKTP-175 on existing supports to the facility. In order to receive the Act on the delineation of the balance sheet affiliation and the Act on the implementation of technological connection, I must present the certificate of approval for the operation of power receivers received at Rostekhnadzor. In design organizations, the cost of a certificate from Rostekhnadzor is about 15 thousand rubles.
Are the actions of a network organization legal?

Answer: the actions of the Network Organization are unlawful:
1) The network organization is obliged to carry out all activities up to the borders of your land plot and is not entitled to impose obligations on you to lay power lines to your land plot;
2) The network organization is obliged to sign with you an act of delimiting the balance sheet and an act on the implementation of technological connection. At the same time, the Network Organization does not have the right to require the submission of Rostekhnadzor permission to permit the operation of an energy receiving device and your payment of funds.

Technological connection rules No. 861 dated December 27, 2004 include the following sections:

  • General provisions determining the composition of the Rules, as well as the main regulated parameters. These parameters include responsibilities assigned to both the network company and the applicant. In addition, the general provisions of the Rules determine that any person has the right to technological connection to electric networks. In addition, No.   861 dated 12/27/2004  Years determine the procedure for the implementation of technological connection, including the sequence of actions that the applicant must carry out in order for the technological connection to be carried out.
  • The procedure for concluding and executing a contract. This section defines what actions the applicant needs to take in order for the contract with the network company to be drawn up and then concluded. The acceptable form for submitting documents is also determined, as well as a list of documents required for submission. In addition, this section defines the composition of the contract, as well as a list of essential conditions that must be contained in the contract, including the term for the contract. The liability of the parties and the payment procedure are also regulated.
  • Besides, Technological Connection Rules861 dated 12/27/2004 years also determine the criteria by which the possibility or impossibility of technological connection. Unfortunately, not everyone knows that they may refuse to implement a technological connection, referring to the lack of technical ability to make a technological connection in your case. It is in these Rules that the criteria are determined by which the network company is guided in making the decision, as well as the procedure that the parties are required to take in order to ensure the possibility of technological connection.
  • In addition, the Rules of technological connection No. 861 dated December 27, 2004 also include a section regulating the features of technological connection through the redistribution of power between a legal entity and an individual entrepreneur. The same section regulates the procedure in the event of a consumer refusing maximum power in favor of a network company.
  • Also, the Rules of technological connection regulate all the features of a temporary technological connection, including a list of actions that must be taken to implement a temporary technological connection.
  • In addition, the Rules of technological connection No. 861 dated 12/27/2004 also include information on how to restore and reissue documents on technological connection.
  • Of course, the Rules also govern the procedure for verifying compliance with technical conditions. Moreover, it is checked both the fulfillment of technical conditions by the applicant and by the network company, if this was provided for by the contract.

So, as we see, the Rules of technological connection No. 861 dated 12/27/2004 include the definition of absolutely all the nuances that characterize the implementation of technological connection. These Rules govern absolutely any actions both on the part of the applicant and on the part of the network company, therefore, in the event of a dispute, it is absolutely necessary to have a full knowledge of how to proceed in accordance with these Rules. Of course, the applicant rarely has relevant information. In addition, everyone is well aware that the law needs not only to know well, but also to be able to interpret it correctly. In order for the technological connection to be carried out not only in accordance with the current legislation, but also on conditions favorable to you, you must contact the energy service company.

V. The procedure for determining losses in electric networks and payment of these losses

36. Actual losses of electric energy in electric networks are defined as the difference between the amount of electric energy delivered to the electric network from other networks or from electric energy producers and the amount of electric energy consumed by power receiving devices connected to this network, as well as transferred to other network organization.

37. Grid organizations are obliged to compensate for actual losses of electric energy that have occurred in their network facilities, minus losses included in the price of electric energy.

38. Consumers of services, with the exception of electric energy producers, are obligated to pay, as part of the payment for services for the transmission of electric energy, the regulatory losses incurred during the transmission of electric energy through the network of a network organization with which the relevant persons have an agreement, with the exception of losses included in the price (tariff) for electric energy, in order to avoid double counting. Consumers of services pay losses of electric energy in excess of the norm in case it is proved that the losses occurred due to the fault of these consumers of services.

39. The amount of loss of electric energy in electric networks, which is part of the fee for services for the transfer of electric energy, is determined on the basis of the standard for losses of electric energy. Loss ratios are established by the authorized federal executive body in accordance with these Rules and the methodology for determining normative and actual losses of electric energy in electric networks.

40.
