- System components must meet national ANSI and IEEE standards applicable to distributed energy storage systems.
- System design must comply with FKEC’s Standards of Electrical Service and applicable Tier agreement.
- System design must meet the current NESC and NEC requirements.
- Member generation size shall be no larger than required to achieve yearly net zero usage. System sizing to achieve a yearly net zero usage shall be based on the average peak consumption of the 3 highest months experienced in the last 12 months.
- System maximum design shall not exceed 90% of service size. Additional fees may be incurred if service or transformer upgrade is required.
- Member-owned generating facilities between 25 kWAC and 50 kWAC may require, at FKEC’s discretion, a dedicated a dedicated three-phase 120/208V or 277/480 Wye grounded transformer. FKEC will specify any winding connections, grounding, or other requirements based on the specific customer site location and generating system. Open delta transformers will only be connected as a single phase and only supply power to the lighting transformer. This will be at the member’s expense.
- Member generating facilities greater than 50 kWAC will require a dedicated three-phase 120/208V or 277/480 Wye grounded transformer. FKEC will specify any winding connections, grounding, or other requirements based on the specific customer site location and generating system. Open delta transformers will only be connected as a single phase and only supply power to the lighting transformer. This will be at the member’s expense.
- Independent energy storage systems or stored energy systems associated with a PV system can export energy to FKEC’s distribution system. The member must provide documentation that the stored energy design cannot export energy to FKEC’s distribution system.
