Installation

This guideline is primarily intended to provide an overview of the application process involved in becoming a distributed generator. If a prospective power plant owner plans to generate electric energy and the power plant capacity rating is less than one MW, the applicant may proceed without filing an application with the Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) if the following three requirements are met: ? No person is directly and adversely affected. ? The power plant complies with AUC Rule 012: Noise Control (AUC Rule 012). ? There is no effect on the environment.

This guideline is intended to assist the customer in understanding the connection process that results in connection of the customer's generation facility to Hydro Ottwwa's distribution network. This guideline does not provide all the details of costs or responsibilities that the customer may assume; such details will be evaluated for each specific request.

Third parties must use certified equipment (both behind the meter and on the distribution grid) when attempting to interconnect new components to the grid. Certified equipment is equipment that has passed through rigorous certification testing procedures done by Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories (NRTLs); UL is one such example. NRTLs create testing procedures for equipment that verify equipment functionality and safety to pre-set testing standards created by nationally recognized engineering groups such as IEEE.

The document applies to stand-alone rechargeable electric lighting appliances or kits that can be installed by a typical user without employing a technician. This technical specification presents a quality assurance framework that includes product specifications a framework for interpreting test results test methods and standardized specifications sheets templates for communicating test results.

The standard applies to a micro power plant which is the electric energy generation subsystem associated with a decentralized rural electrification system. It provides general requirements for the design, erection and operation of micro power plants and general requirements to ensure the safety of persons and property. The plants covered by this specification are low-voltage AC, three- or single-phase, with rated capacity less than or equal to 100 kVA.

The standard specifies the general requirements for the design and the implementation of micro grids used in decentralized rural electrification to ensure the safety of persons and property and their satisfactory operation according to the scheduled use.

The scope of this NWIP is to prepare normative documents on safety dealing with: 1) main risks related to couples of use cases and associated technologies; 2) technical contents and results to be included in the safety report and auditing framework; 3) list of main features to be validated by testing; 4) scale at which the storage system must be tested; and 5) recommendations to prevent or mitigate accidental effect.

The ISO 9000 family addresses various aspects of quality management and contains some of ISO’s best known standards. The standards provide guidance and tools for companies and organizations who want to ensure that their products and services consistently meet customer’s requirements, and that quality is consistently improved.

Readiness of emergency power is a key consideration in safeguarding building occupants in the event of a disruption of the normal utility supply. NFPA 111 covers performance requirements for stored electric energy systems providing an alternate source of electrical power in buildings and facilities during interruption of the normal power source.

These requirements cover ESS that are intended to store energy from power or other sources and provide electrical or other types of energy to loads or power conversion equipment. The ESS may include equipment for charging, discharging, control, protection, communication, controlling the system environment, fuel or other fluid movement and containment, etc. The system may contain other ancillary equipment related to the functioning of the energy storage system.
