EV & HP Application
Application Form for the Installation of Low Carbon Technologies
This application form must be completed and sent by the installer to the DNO directly when installing an Electric Vehicle Charge Point
or Heat Pump. This form should be used for premises with an existing DNO connection. For new DNO connections, this form should be
used in addition to a new electricity connection application. To ensure the safety and security of the Electricity Networks, depending on
the size, type and location of the installation, you may need to apply for a connection with the DNO prior to installation of the device.
To determine if you need to apply to the DNO for a connection prior to installation or not, please ensure you read and understand the
connection processes for Electric Vehicles and Heat Pumps on the ENA website here:
http://www.energynetworks.org/electricity/futures/electric-vehicles-and-heat-pumps.html
For help identifying the correct DNO and their contact details please visit:

0818.pdf
Please note that:
• One form must be submitted per device per premises. For multiple devices (including multiple devices under one controller) or
multiple properties, please use the multiple installations spreadsheet, also available on the ENA website here:
http://www.energynetworks.org/electricity/futures/electric-vehicles-and-heat-pumps.html
• An ‘adequacy of the supply’ assessment is required prior to any Electric Vehicle Charge Point or Heat Pump installation. This
requires a load survey to calculate the new Maximum Demand (MD), including the device to be installed.
• The DNO must be contacted in advance of installation where there is an identified issue with adequacy or safety concern
with the premises existing service equipment, where the new MD is greater than the cut-out rating, where the new MD is >60A
(13.8kVA single phase) for residential properties or the devices do not meet the required standards.* Depending on the size
and/or number of devices being connected, the DNO may ask for additional information to be supplied.
• In certain circumstances, for example if the total MD of the premises is ≤60A and adequacy of the connection is known*, the
DNO shall be notified within 28 days of the installation.
• Any reinforcement costs associated with this installation may be recharged to the customer.
Providing that this form is fully and correctly completed, the following timeframes are applicable:
• Properties with new MD ≤60A and meeting all other relevant requirements* - installers can connect their device(s) and shall
notify the DNO by filling in this form within 28 days of the installation
• Properties with new MD between 60A and 100A inclusive (and not CT metered) - the installer must apply for a connection
prior to installation by filling in this form and the DNO will assess the supply capacity within 10 working days
• Properties with new MD >100A (and not CT metered) - the installer must apply for a connection prior to installation by filling in
this form. Timescales as per the Electricity Distribution Licence, Electricity (Guaranteed Standards of Performance)
Regulations 2010: https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/ofgem-publications/47616/connections-gsop-guidance-sept0809.pdf. See local
DNO connections Guaranteed Standards of Service for specific response timescales in your area.
* All devices must comply with the process described on the ENA website here: http://www.energynetworks.org/electricity/futures/electric-vehicles-and-heat-pumps.html

The installer must ensure no other parallel devices can run simultaneously. If the installation is one controller but multiple
devices, please use the multiple installations spreadsheet
* If the cut-out rating is unknown or uncertain, it can be established by raising an enquiry with the DNO. If the supply capacity
still cannot be established, the ‘Apply to Connect’ process must be followed and the aforementioned timeframes are applicable.
Please note that one should not open the cut out. Guidance on cut-out ratings is available on the ENA website. If the cut-out
rating is unknown, a picture can be provided to the DNO.
