Completing this form accurately will help DNOs process your application as quickly as possible. Please read the following information thoroughly before starting to ensure you have all information required to complete the relevant sections.
|What is eligible |This form is for Electric Vehicle Charge Points (EVCP) or Heat Pumps (HP) being installed in a premises with an existing |
| |Distribution Network Operator (DNO) electricity connection. This form may also be used for the installation of |
| |Vehicle-to-Grid Electric Vehicle Charge Points (V2G EVCP) where the total aggregated capacity of generation/battery |
| |storage equipment in a premises is 17kW (single phase) or 50kW (3-phase) or less. To apply for a new connection to the |
| |network, please contact your relevant DNO. |
|When to complete |This form should always be reviewed prior to installing any new EVCP or HP to determine whether the installation requires |
| |an application or whether it is eligible for the notification process. |
|When to submit |If the installation meets all the notification criteria (Section B) the DNO must be notified within 28 days of installing |
| |the new equipment. If all the criteria in Section B cannot be met, you should submit an application to the DNO using this |
| |form before connecting the new equipment to ensure that the DNO can maintain safe and effective operation of the |
| |electricity network. |
|What to submit |Depending on the nature of the new equipment, the DNO may require additional information. For multiple pieces of equipment|
| |(including multiple pieces of equipment under one controller) or multiple premises, please use the multiple installations |
| |spreadsheet, also available on the ENA website[1]. |
|Finding your DNO |For help identifying your DNO and their contact details please visit the ENA website[2]. |
|Cost |Any reinforcement costs associated with this installation may be charged to the customer. |
Required Information
To populate this form, you will need information about the following.
|Device to be installed |Details of EVCPs or HPs to be installed are required. Where equipment is not registered in the relevant ENA database, |
| |additional information will be required (Section E). A link to the Heat Pump Database can be found on the Databases page |
| |on the ENA website1. Type tested V2G EVCPs can be found in the ENA Type Test Verification Report Register. |
|Existing devices at the |Details of any existing EVCPs, electric heating, battery storage, generation (e.g. solar PV), storage or other large load |
|premises |drawing devices. |
|Maximum demand (MD) |A load survey is required to calculate the Maximum Demand. This should comprise the existing Maximum Demand of the whole |
| |premises and the new equipment to be installed as well as any import or load limiting devices. Further Guidance on such |
| |devices is available in the FAQ section of the Connecting to the networks page on the ENA website1. |
|Supply Capacity / cut-out |If the cut-out rating is unknown or uncertain, it can be established by asking the DNO. The supply capacity MUST be |
|rating |confirmed with the DNO where the MD is greater than the cut-out rating or where the new MD is >60A per phase (13.8kVA |
| |single phase) for residential / non-CT metered premises. |
| |If the cut-out rating is unknown, a photograph can be provided to the DNO together with the application. Please note that |
| |you MUST NOT open the cut-out unless authorised to do so. Further Guidance on cut-out ratings is available on the ENA |
| |website1. |
|Adequacy of supply |An ‘adequacy of supply’ assessment is required prior to installing a EVCP or HP. The DNO must be contacted in advance of |
| |installation where there is an identified issue with adequacy or a safety concern with the premises existing DNO service |
| |equipment. |
Timelines
Providing that this form is fully and correctly completed, the following timeframes are applicable.
|Notifications |Provided the installation meets all the relevant notification criteria (i.e. all the applicable checkboxes in Section B |
| |that are relevant to the installation can be ticked) installers can connect the new EVCP of HP and notify the DNO using |
| |this form within 28 days of their installation. |
|Application (60A < MD ≤ 100A) |The DNO should assess the supply capacity and confirm if the new equipment can be connected within 10 working days of |
| |receiving the completed form. |
|Application (MD > 100A) |The DNO will respond within the timescales as per the Electricity Distribution Licence, Electricity Guaranteed Standards |
| |of Performance (GSoP) Regulations 2010[3]. |

[7] Some DNO cut-outs have more than one DNO service cable terminated in the DNO cut-out. Such a situation indicates a ‘Looped Service’ where there are one or more services connected via the cut-out. Note this may impact on the adequacy of the DNO service equipment. Looped services can be found anywhere but are often found in housing estates from the 1970s & 1980s, rural areas and terraced housing.

How do you convert eV to nm? How do you convert eV to NM? 1 eV = 0.00016 N-m. How do you convert from nm to cm? To convert a nanometer measurement to a centimeter measurement, divide the length by the conversion ratio. The length in centimeters is equal to the nanometers divided by .
