2. Charge Application and Definitions
Supercustomer Billing and Payment
2.1
Supercustomer billing and payment applies to Metering Points registered as Non-Half Hourly
(NHH) metered or NHH unmetered. The Supercustomer approach makes use of aggregated
data obtained from the Supercustomer Distribution Use of System (DUoS) Report.
2.2
Invoices are calculated on a periodic basis and sent to each User, for whom SHEPD is
transporting electricity through its Distribution System. Invoices are reconciled, over a period of
approximately 14 months, to ensure the cash positions of Users and SHEPD are adjusted to
reflect later and more accurate consumption figures.
2.3
The charges are applied on the basis of the Line Loss Factor Classes (LLFCs) assigned to a
Metering Point Administration Number (MPAN), and the units consumed within the time
periods specified in this statement. These time periods may not necessarily be the same as
those indicated by the Time Pattern Regimes (TPRs) associated to the Standard Settlement
Configuration (SSC) – specific to Distribution Network Operators (DNOs). All LLFCs are
assigned at the sole discretion of SHEPD. Where a User identifies an incorrectly applied
LLFC, SHEPD may at our sole discretion apply the correct LLFC and/or charges backdated
from the date the LLFC became incorrect, up to a maximum of three years. The charges in this
document are shown exclusive of VAT. Invoices take account of previous Settlement runs and
include VAT.
Supercustomer Charges
2.4
Supercustomer charges are generally billed through the following components:
A fixed charge - pence/MPAN/day, there will only be one fixed charge applied to each
MPAN) in respect of which the User is registered; and
Unit charges - pence/kilowatt-hour (kWh), more than one unit charge may be applied.
2.5
Users who wish to supply electricity to Customers whose Metering System is Measurement
Class A or B and settled on Profile Classes (PC) 1 through to 8 will be allocated the relevant
charge structure set out in Annex 1.
2.6
Measurement Class A charges apply to Exit/Entry Points where NHH metering is used for
Settlement.
2.7
Measurement Class B charges apply to Exit Points deemed to be suitable as Unmetered
2
Supplies as permitted in the Electricity (Unmetered Supply) Regulations 2001 and where
3
operated in accordance with BSCP520 .
2.8
Identification of the appropriate charge can be made by cross reference to the LLFC.
2.9
Valid Settlement Profile Class/Standard Settlement Configuration/Meter Timeswitch Code
(PC/SSC/MTC) combinations for these LLFCs are detailed in Market Domain Data (MDD).
2.10 Where an MPAN has an invalid settlement combination the LLFC will be used to determine the
Tariff; where it is necessary and appropriate, SHEPD will amend the LLFC to a valid one.
When it is not possible to correct the LLFC, SHEPD will contact the relevant User, in
accordance with the BSC, MRA Clause 24.5 and MRA WP 108, to amend the registration
details. In relation to invalid settlement combinations, SHEPD reserves the right to apply the
'Domestic Unrestricted' Unit and MPAN charge as the default to all relevant reconciliations.
2.11 The time periods for the charge rates are as specified by the SSC. To determine the
appropriate charge rate for each SSC/TPR a lookup table is provided in the spreadsheet that
accompanies this statement4.

2.12 The ‘Domestic Off-Peak’ and ‘Small Non-Domestic Off-Peak’ charges are supplementary to
either an Unrestricted or a Two Rate charge.
Site-Specific Billing and Payment
2.13 Site-specific billing and payment applies to Metering Points registered as Half Hourly (HH)
metered. The site-specific billing and payment approach to Distribution Use of System (DUoS)
billing makes use of Half Hourly (HH) metering data received through Settlement.
2.14 Invoices are calculated on a periodic basis and sent to each User, for whom SHEPD is
transporting electricity through its Distribution System. Where an account is based on
estimated data, the account shall be subject to any adjustment which may be necessary
following the receipt of actual data from the User.
2.15 The charges are applied on the basis of the Line Loss Factor Classes (LLFCs) assigned to the
MPAN (or the MSID for CVA (Central Volume Allocation) sites), and the units consumed within
the time periods specified in this statement.
Site-Specific Billed Charges
2.16 Site-Specific billed charges may include the following components:
A fixed charge in pence/MPAN/day for SVA sites; or pence/MSID/day for CVA sites;
A capacity charge in pence/kVA/day, for agreed Maximum Import Capacity (MIC) and/or
Maximum Export Capacity (MEC);
An excess capacity charge in pence/kVA/day, if a site exceeds its MIC and/or MEC;
Unit charges in pence/kWh, more than one unit charge may be applied; and
An excess reactive power charge in pence/kVArh, for each unit in excess of the reactive
charge threshold.
2.17 Users who wish to supply electricity to Customers whose Metering System is Measurement
Class C, D, E or CVA will be allocated the relevant charge structure dependent upon the
voltage and location of the Metering Point.
2.18 Measurement Class C, E or CVA charges will apply to Exit/Entry Points where HH metering, or
an equivalent meter, is used for Settlement purposes.
2.19 Measurement Class D charges apply to Exit Points deemed to be suitable as Unmetered
Supplies as permitted in the Electricity (Unmetered Supply) Regulations 2001 and where
operated in accordance with BSCP520.
2.20 For SVA sites, fixed charges are generally levied on a per MPAN basis. Where two or more
half-hourly MPANs are located at the same point of connection, the relevant number of fixed
charges will be applied. For CVA sites, fixed charges are generally levied on a pence per
MSID basis. Where MSID(s) is shared at a site, fixed charges would apply for import and
export separately. For further details and examples please refer to the MRA Schedule 8
guidance on metering points.
2.21 LV & HV Designated Properties will be allocated the relevant charge structure set out in Annex
1.
2.22 Designated EHV Properties will be allocated the relevant charge structure set out in Annex 2.
2.23 Where LV and HV Designated Properties or Designated EHV Properties have more than one
point of connection separate charges will be applied to each point of connection.
Time Period for Half Hourly Metered Properties
2.24 The time periods for the application of unit charges to LV & HV Designated Properties that are
Half Hourly metered are detailed in Annex 1.
2.25 The time periods for the application of unit charges to Designated EHV Properties are detailed
in Annex 2.
Time Period for Half Hourly Unmetered Properties
2.26 The time periods for the application of unit charges to connections that are pseudo HH
metered are detailed in Annex 1.
Page 7 of 38
Application of Capacity Charges
2.27 The following sections explain the application of Capacity charges and Exceeded Capacity
charges.
Chargeable Capacity
2.28 The Chargeable Capacity is, for each billing period, the MIC/MEC as detailed below.
2.29 The MIC/MEC will be agreed with SHEPD at the time of connection or pursuant to a later
change in requirements. Following such an agreement (be it at the time of connection or later)
no reduction in MIC/MEC will be allowed for a period of one year. In the absence of an
agreement the Chargeable Capacity, save for error or omission, will be based on the last MIC
and/or MEC previously agreed by SHEPD for the relevant premises’ connection. A Customer
can seek to agree or vary the MIC and/or MEC by contacting SHEPD using the contact details
in paragraph 1.7.
2.30 Reductions to the MIC/MEC may only be permitted once in a 12 month period and no
retrospective changes will be allowed. Where MIC/MEC is reduced the new lower level will be
agreed with reference to the level of the Customer’s maximum demand. It should be noted that
where a new lower level is agreed the original capacity may not be available in the future
without the need for network reinforcement and associated charges.
Exceeded Capacity
2.31 Where a Customer takes additional unauthorised capacity over and above the MIC/MEC, the
excess will be classed as Exceeded Capacity. The exceeded portion of the capacity will be
charged at the excess capacity charge p/kVA/day rate, based on the difference between the
MIC/MEC and the actual capacity. This will be charged for the duration of the full month in
which the breach occurs.
Demand Exceeded Capacity
Demand Exceeded Capacity Max(2
AI 2
max(RI , RE) 2
MIC,0)
Where:
AI = Active Import (kWh)
RI = Reactive Import (kVArh)
RE = Reactive Export (kVArh)
MIC = Maximum Import Capacity (kVA)
2.32 Only reactive import and reactive export values occurring at times of active import are used in
the calculation.
2.33 This calculation is completed for every half hour and the maximum value from the billing period
is captured.

2.34 Only reactive import and reactive export values occurring at times of active export are used in
the calculation.
2.35 This calculation is completed for every half hour and the maximum value from the billing period
is captured.
Standby Capacity for Additional Security on Site
2.36 Where standby capacity charges are applied, the charge will be set at the same rate as that
applied to the normal MIC. Where, at the customer’s request, additional security for the
Connection Point(s) is provided by reserved network capacity at two different sources of
supply, SHEPD reserves the right to charge for the capacity held at each source.
Page 8 of 38
Minimum Capacity Levels
2.37 There is no minimum capacity threshold.
Application of charges for excess reactive power
2.38 When an individual HH metered MPAN’s reactive power (measured in kVArh) at LV and HV
Designated Properties exceeds 33% of total active power (measured in kWh), excess reactive
power charges will apply. This threshold is equivalent to an average power factor of 0.95
during the period. Any reactive units in excess of the 33% threshold are charged at the rate
appropriate to the particular charge.
2.39 Power Factor is calculated as follows:
Cos θ = Power Factor
kVArh

the calculation.
2.42 The square root calculation will be to two decimal places.
2.43 This calculation is completed for every half hour and the values summated over the billing
period.
Generation Chargeable Reactive Power
Where:
Generation Chargeable kVArh

AE ,0
AE = Active Export (kWh)
RI = Reactive Import (kVArh)
RE = Reactive Export (kVArh)
2.44 Only reactive import and reactive export values occurring at times of active export are used in
the calculation.
2.45 The square root calculation will be to two decimal places.
2.46 This calculation is completed for every half hour and the values summated over the billing
period.
Generation Charges for Pre-2005 Designated EHV Properties
2.47 Designated EHV Properties that were connected to the Distribution System under a pre-2005
connection charging policy are eligible for exemption from Generation Use of System charges
unless one of the following criteria has been met:
Page 9 of 38
25 years have passed since their first energisation/connection date, in which
case, Generation Use of System charges will apply from the next charging year
st
following the expiry of their 25 years exemption (starting 1 April), or
The Designated EHV Property customer has provided notice to SHEPD that they
wish to opt in to Generation Use of System charges. If a notice to opt in has been
provided there will be no further opportunity to opt out.
2.48 Furthermore, if an exempt Customer makes an alteration to its export requirement then the
Customer may be eligible to be charged for the additional capacity required or energy imported
or exported. For example, where a generator increases its export capacity the incremental
increase in export capacity will attract DUoS charges as other non-exempt generators.
Provision of billing data
2.49 Where HH metering data is required for Use of System charging and this is not provided
through Settlement processes, such metering data shall be provided by the User of the system
to SHEPD in respect of each calendar month within five working days of the end of that
calendar month. The metering data shall identify the amount consumed and/or produced in
each half hour of each day and shall separately identify active and reactive import and export.
Metering data provided to SHEPD shall be consistent with that received through the metering
equipment installed. Metering data shall be provided in an electronic format specified by
SHEPD from time to time and in the absence of such specification, metering data shall be
provided in a comma separated text file in the format of D0275 MRA data flow (as agreed with
SHEPD). The data shall be e-mailed to duos.income.billing@sse.com.
2.50 SHEPD requires details of reactive power imported or exported to be provided for all
Measurement Class C (mandatory HH metered) sites and for Measurement Class E (elective
HH metered sites). It is also required for CVA sites and exempt distribution network
boundaries with difference metering. SHEPD reserves the right to levy a charge on Users who
fail to provide such reactive data. In order to estimate missing reactive data, a Power Factor of
0.95 lag will be applied to the active consumption in any half hour.
Licensed Distributor Network Operator charges
2.51 Licensed Distributor Network Operator (LDNO) charges are applied to LDNOs who operate
Embedded Networks.
2.52 The charge structure for LV and HV Designated Properties reflects the host LV and HV
Designated Properties’ charges. The relevant charge structures are set out in Annex 4.
2.53 Where an MPAN has an invalid Settlement Combination, the ‘LDNO HV: Domestic
Unrestricted’ fixed and unit charge will be applied as default until the invalid combination is
corrected. Where there are multiple SSC-TPR combinations, the default ‘LDNO HV: Domestic
Unrestricted’ fixed and unit charge will be applied for each invalid TPR combination.
2.54 The charge structure for Designated EHV Properties connected to Embedded Networks in
operated by SHEPD will be calculated individually and includes the Host DNO’s boundary
charges. The relevant charge structures are set out in Annex 2.
2.55 For Nested Networks, the relevant charging principles set out in DCUSA Schedule 21 apply.

Page 11 of 38
4. Schedule of Line Loss Factors
Role of Line Loss Factors in the Supply of Electricity
4.1
Electricity entering or exiting the DNOs’ networks is adjusted to take account of energy which
5
is lost as it is distributed through the network.
4.2
This adjustment is made to ensure that energy bought or sold by a User, from/to a Customer,
accounts for energy lost as part of distributing energy to and from the Customer’s premises.
4.3
DNOs are responsible for calculating the Line Loss Factors (LLFs) and providing these factors
to Elexon. Elexon manage the Balancing and Settlement Code. The code covers the
governance and rules for the balancing and settlement arrangements.
4.4
Annex 5 provides the LLFs which must be used to adjust the Metering System volumes to take
account of losses on the distribution network.
Calculation of Line Loss Factors
4.5
LLFs are calculated in accordance with BSC Procedure (BSCP) 128. BSCP 128 determines
the principles which DNOs must comply with when calculating LLFs.
4.6
LLFs are calculated using either a generic method or a site specific method. The generic
method is used for sites connected at LV or HV and the site specific method is used for sites
connected at EHV or where a request for site specific LLFs has been agreed. Generic LLFs
will be applied to all new EHV sites until sufficient data is available for a site specific
calculation.
4.7
The Elexon website (http://www.elexon.co.uk/pages/losses.aspx) contains more information on
LLFs. This page also has links to BSCP 128. Our website contains the SHEPD LLF
methodology statement.
Line Loss Factor time periods
4.8
LLFs are calculated for a set number of time periods during the year. These time periods are
detailed in Annex 5.
Line Loss Factor tables
4.9
When using the LLF tables in Annex 5 reference should be made to the LLFC allocated to the
MPAN to find the appropriate LLF.
4.10 The Elexon Portal website, https://www.bsccentralservices.com/, contains the LLFs in
standard industry data format (D0265). A user guide with details on registering and using the
portal can be downloaded from https://www.elexonportal.co.uk/userguide.
5
Energy can be lost for technical and non-technical reasons and losses normally occur by heat dissipation through power
flowing in conductors and transformers. Losses can also reduce if a customer’s action reduces power flowing in the distribution
network. This might happen when a customer generates electricity and the produced energy is consumed locally.

5. Notes for Designated EHV Properties
Charges for Designated EHV Properties
5.1
The charges for Designated EHV Properties are based on available information at the time
that this statement was published. A new or modified connection will result in changes to
current network utilisations which will then form the basis of future prices: the charge
determined in this statement will not necessarily be the charge in subsequent years because
of the interaction between new and existing network connections and any other changes made
to the Distribution System which may affect the charges.
Charges for New Designated EHV Properties
5.2
Charges for any new Designated EHV Properties calculated after publication of the current
statement will be published in an addendum to that statement as and when necessary.
5.3
The form of the addendum is detailed in Annex 6 of this statement.
5.4
The addendum will be sent to DCUSA parties and published as a revised ‘Schedule of
Charges and other tables’ spreadsheet on our website. The addendum will include charge
information that under enduring circumstances would be found in Annex 2 and Line Loss
Factors that would normally be found in Annex 5.
5.5
The new Designated EHV Properties charges will be added to Annex 2 in the next full
statement released.
Charges for Amended Designated EHV Properties
5.6
Where an existing Designated EHV Property connection is modified and energised in the
charging year, SHEPD may revise its charges for the modified Designated EHV Property. If
revised charges are appropriate, an addendum will be sent to relevant DCUSA parties and
published as a revised ‘Schedule of charges and other tables’ spreadsheet on our website
www.ssepd.co.uk. The modified Designated EHV Property charges will be added to Annex 2 in
the next full statement released.
Demand Side Management
5.7
For Designated EHV Properties some customers may be able to benefit from entering into a
Demand Side Management ("DSM") Agreement with SHEPD.
5.8
DSM arrangements are based on a formal commitment by the Customer to materially reduce
their Maximum Import Capacity in certain time periods, as determined by SHEPD, and are
subject to SHEPD securing appropriate arrangements with the host DNO. Subject to all
contractual arrangements being in place and the Customer reducing their Maximum Import
Capacity to meet the defined parameters in the Agreement, reduced use of system charges
will apply. The scale of the reduction can vary and is linked to the magnitude of the locational
cost component of the DUoS charges.
5.9
Any reduction in use of system charges applicable to the Customer will be assessed on a sitespecific basis by SHEPD will take into account the extent of reduction which the customer is
willing to contractually commit to.
5.10 Any Customers who wish to enquire whether they can take advantage of DSM should contact:

Additional Notes
The Domestic and Non-Domestic off-peak (related MPAN) tariffs are supplementary to a standard
unrestricted tariff.
Off-peak terms are only available to metering points that are already on such terms and where:
a) the customer retains the original off-peak equipment and the circuits from which the off-peak
supply is taken are separated from all other circuits;
b) the function of the off-peak equipment is not duplicated by other equipment connected to the
other circuits; and
c) “off-peak equipment” means appliances such as thermal storage heaters, storage water
heaters or other equipment as agreed by SHEPD
Generally, Domestic DUoS tariffs are available only to premises:
a) used exclusively as a single private residence; or
b) comprising more than one private residence where the estimated maximum demand of the
supply does not exceed 25 kW
Generally, the Small Non Domestic tariffs are only available to premises which use less than
70kW/kVA and have a whole current meter
HV Medium Non-Domestic tariff is closed to new HV customers. All new HV customers will require
half-hourly metering
st
LV Sub HH Metered tariff will be applied for new customers from 1 April 2013. If an existing
customer (or his Supplier) makes a request for an exit point to be allocated as LV Sub HH Metered
tariff, we would need to ratify that the validity criteria is met. If so, we will accommodate as
appropriate.
If an existing customer (or his Supplier) makes a request for an exit point to be allocated as

The Domestic and Non-Domestic Off Peak (related MPAN) tariffs are supplementary to a standard published tariff and therefore only available under these
conditions.
Preserved tariffs are only available to existing supplies, subject to certain conditions:
a) Suppliers may not normally transfer a meter point from one preserved tariff to another preserved tariff;
b) If a supply under a preserved tariff should cease, other than on change of tenancy, the preserved tariff may not normally be restored;
c) Any additional load required to be supplied on the preserved tariff must be within the existing supply capacity.
