Interconnection Standards Clause Samples
The Interconnection Standards clause defines the technical and procedural requirements that must be met for two or more systems, networks, or facilities to connect and operate together. Typically, this clause outlines the specifications for equipment compatibility, safety protocols, and performance benchmarks that must be adhered to by all parties involved in the interconnection. For example, it may require compliance with industry standards or regulatory guidelines to ensure seamless and safe integration. The core function of this clause is to ensure reliable, safe, and efficient interoperability between interconnected systems, thereby minimizing operational risks and potential disputes over technical incompatibility.
Interconnection Standards. The Buyer equipment, transmission, and distribution requirements and standards, including the Interconnection Guidelines, shall apply to the installation and to the operation of all of the Seller's equipment and to the interconnection.
Interconnection Standards. The Qualifying Facility shall comply with the interconnection standards as defined in Rider 579 Interconnection Standards Rider.
Interconnection Standards. The interconnection facilities covered by these cost allocation rules are (i) those required for the proposed project to reliably interconnect to the New York State Transmission System or to the Distribution System in a manner that meets the NYISO Minimum Interconnection Standard for ERIS, and (ii) those required for the project to meet the NYISO Deliverability Interconnection Standard for ▇▇▇▇.

Summer period (May - Sept.) on-peak (1) $0.03514 off-peak (2)(5) $0.02374 Winter period (Oct. - Apr.) on-Peak (3) $0.03177 off-Peak (4)(5) $0.02623
Interconnection Standards. 2.4.1 The Interconnection Point(s) shall be established and maintained in accordance with Good Utility Practice and Federal, State, ERO, RRO and RTO standards and policies applicable to Transmission Owner’s interconnection service to Local Distribution Company.
Interconnection Standards. Customer agrees that the generating facility complies with all applicable safety, performance, synchronization, interconnection and reliability standards established by the Missouri Public Service Commission, the National Electrical Safety Code, National Electrical Code, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and Underwriters Laboratories for distributed generation. The following standards shall also be met for solar systems:
a. National Electric Code including but not limited to NEC Articles 690 (guidelines outlining the installation of the system including structural and electrical components) Section 690.12 (rapid shut down requirement) and NEC 705 – regarding the safety and warning signs of the system.
b. Underwriters Laboratories (UL) including but not limited to UL 1741 (Standard for Static Inverters and Charge Controllers for Use in Photovoltaic Systems) and UL 1703 (Standard for Safety: Flat Plate Photovoltaic Modules and Panels)
c. Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards including but not limited to 1547-2003 (Standard for Interconnecting Distributed Resources with Electric Power Systems)
d. Customer’s system shall contain a switch, circuit breaker, fuse or other easily accessible device or feature located in immediate proximity to the Customer’s metering equipment that would allow a utility
Interconnection Standards. CCC must meet the following interconnection standards:
1) The voltage supplied by the Facility will be that voltage normally available on TNP's transmission system at the Facility's site, or such other standard voltage as may be agreed to by the CCC and TNP, and is in compliance with A.N.S.I. Standard C 84.1 and other applicable codes and standards.
2) The frequency of electricity supplied will be 60 hertz.
3) The number of phases of the produced voltage will be compatible with the phase (phases) available on TNP's system at the Facility site. Normally the number of phases shall be the same as those of TNP's system.
4) The protective devices connected between the output of the Facility and TNP's system must be rated for the maximum available fault current which the Facility or TNP's system may be capable of developing at the point of interconnection. Such devices shall disconnect the Facility's generation from TNP's system in the event of a fault on the system
Interconnection Standards. The Qualifying Facility shall be constructed in accordance with the description set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof. The Qualifying Facility shall meet the standards for construction, interconnection, safety and operating reliability set forth in the QF Rules, the QF Tariff and Exhibit B, attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof. MidAmerican may upgrade the voltage of its facilities at the Interconnection Point which upgrade may require QF to modify, at its expense, its facilities at the Interconnection Point for the purpose of maintaining the interconnection of the Qualifying Facility with the MidAmerican Electric System. Any disputes over interconnection, sales, and purchases are subject to resolution by the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission.
Interconnection Standards. Interconnections shall be carried out in a manner consistent with the standards utilized by Brazos Electric in establishing interconnections generally; and, if the interconnection shall be with the Member's distribution system, shall be in compliance with the Interconnection Plan developed by, and on file with, the Member pursuant to Section 23.66(k)(1) of the Substantive Rules of the Commission.
Interconnection Standards. GPTH shall deliver its own traffic, and shall require each of its customers to deliver its traffic, in a digital DS-1 format at such points of presence as are determined by GPTH.
