Executive Summary:
This document contains the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission's Third Amendment Regulations of 2016, effective from the date of publication in the official Gazette (April 29th, 2016). It amends the Delhi Electricity Supply Code and Performance Standards Regulations of 2007, introducing a new regulation (23A) regarding the review of sanctioned load/contract demand by licensees. The regulation outlines procedures for load revision based on maximum demand readings, including consumer notification, security deposit adjustments, and timelines for implementation.
Key Points / Main Content:
Revised Load Computation:
* Licensees must review sanctioned load/contract demand based on the highest average of maximum demand readings over four consecutive months of the previous financial year.
* The minimum sanctioned load is 1kW.
* Revised sanctioned load is rounded off to the lower integer.
Consumer Notification and Action:
* If the computed revised load exceeds the sanctioned load, the licensee must notify the consumer of the proposed increase.
* The notice must include details of readings, enhanced security deposit, and differential Service Line cum Development (SLD) charges.
* Consumers have 30 days to deposit the additional amounts, after which it may be included in the next bill.
SLD Charges:
* Differential SLD charges apply only when the service line is actually changed by the licensee.
* Differential SLD is calculated as the difference between the SLD for the proposed enhanced load and the load for which SLD has already been paid.
* SLD charges are non-refundable.
Implementation and Adjustments:
* Upward revision of sanctioned load/contract demand is applicable for all consumer categories after notice and a 30-day deposit window.
* For domestic consumers, if the computed load is less than the sanctioned load, the licensee seeks consent for load reduction.
* For domestic consumers with sanctioned load up to 5kW, load reduction is automatic if no response is received within 30 days. For loads above 5kW, reduction requires explicit consent.
* Licensees will refund the prorated security deposit in case of load reduction, by adjusting in the energy bill.
Timelines and Compensation:
* Notices for upward or downward revision of sanctioned load/contract demand must be issued by May 31st of the financial year.
* Upward revision notices cannot be issued after May 31st.
* Failure to issue a downward revision notice by May 31st results in a Rs. 500 compensation to the consumer.
* Revisions are effective from July 1st of the financial year.
* A request for any load reduction will be entertained only after six months from the date of load enhancement.
Impact Analysis:
Consumers:
* Impact: Potential changes to sanctioned load/contract demand, leading to adjusted bills, security deposits, and SLD charges. Domestic consumers may experience automatic load reduction if their usage is below their sanctioned load (if below 5kW).
* Action Required: Monitor electricity usage, respond to notices from the licensee regarding load revisions, and pay any additional security deposit or SLD charges if applicable.
Licensees:
* Impact: Required to review sanctioned loads, issue notices, adjust security deposits, and manage SLD charges according to the new regulations. Also, liable for compensation in case of failure to notify downward revisions on time.
* Action Required: Implement processes for reviewing sanctioned loads, issuing notices to consumers, adjusting security deposits, and ensuring compliance with the timelines outlined in the amendment.
Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission:
* Impact: Oversees the implementation and enforcement of the amended regulations.
* Action Required: Monitor the effectiveness of the new regulations and address any issues or disputes that may arise.

F. 17(85)/Engg./DERC/15-1.6/Part File-215178/156.—In exercise of the powers conferred by Section 50 of
the Electricity Act 2003, read with Sections 57, 86 and 181 of the Electricity Act, the Delhi Electricity Regulatory
Commission hereby makes the following amendments in "Delhi Electricity Supply Code and Performance Standards
Regulations. 2007" (hereinafter, referred to as "the Principal Regulations"), as follows :
1.0(cid:9) Short title and commencement
(1) These regulations may be called' the Delhi Electi:icity Supply Code and Performance Standards (Third
Amendment).Regulations, 2016. -(cid:9) •
(2) These regulations shall come into effect from the date of their publication in the official Gazette.
2.0(cid:9) A new Regulation 23A shall be added after Regulation 23 of the Principal Regulations as under:
"23A Review of sanctioned load/contract demand by the licensee
The Licensee shall review the sanctioned load or the contract demand as the case may be, on the basis of Maximum
Demand readings in the following manner:PART III](cid:9)
DELHI GAZETTE : EXTRAORDINARY

(1)(cid:9) Computation of Revised Load:
(i)For revision of sanctioned load or contract demand as the case may be, of the consumer, the Licensee
shall take,
the highest of average of Maximum Demand readings recorded as per billing cycle covering any
four consecutive calendar months in the previous financial year i.e. from I
off to the lower integer as described in the illustration: st April to 31st March, rounded
Provided that the period for billing.

Rounding off for revised sanctioned load :3 kW
(ii)The minimum sanctioned load shall be lkW.
(2)
If the computed revised load pursuant to Regulation 23A (1) exceeds the sanctioned load or contract
dernand as the case may be, the Licensee shall issue a separate notice to the consumer about the proposed
increase in sanctioned load or contract demand. The notice shall contain the details of the exact readings
in the consecutive billing cycle(S) taken,ifito consideration along with details of enhanced security deposit
and the differential Service Line cum Development (SLD) charges, if any, for such increase in sanctioned
load or the contract demand, as the case may be, in accordance with Electricity Act, 2003 to be deposited
by the consumer within 30 days from the date of receipt of notice. If the consumer fails to do so, the
additional amount may be included in the next bill, indicating the reasons for such inclusion in the bill.
Provided that differential SLD charges shall be charged from the consumers only in those cases where the
service line is actually changed by the Licensee.
Provided further that Differential-
SLD charges for enhancement of load shall, be the additional SLD
required for differential load i.e: difference between the proposed enhanced load and the load for Which the
SLD charges has already been paid.
IllustratiOn: — for enhancement of sanctioned load from 4kW to 6kW the consumer Will have to pay a
differential SLD amount of Rs.4000 i.e. Rs.7000 (corresponding to 6kW) - Rs.3000 (corresponding to
4kW).
Further, if a consumer has taken a sanctioned load of 6kW initially and have already paid a SLD of
Rs.7000/- and his sanctioned load is reduced to 4kW. Subsequently, if his load is increased to 7kW then
the differential SLD charged shall be NIL i.e. Rs.7000 (corresponding to 7kW) - Rs.7000 (already paid
corresponding to 6kW) as the SLD charges are non-refundable.
(3) The upward revision of sanctioned load or contract demand of consumers, (after issue of notice and giving 30
days time to the consumer to deposit the enhanced security deposit and the differential SLD charges, if
any) shall be applicable for all categories of consumers.
(4)
In case of domestic category consumers, if the computed load pursuant to Regulation 23A (1) is less than the
sanctioned load or contract demand as the case may be of the consumer, the 'Licensee shall seek the
consent of the consumer for load reduction through a separate notice to the consumer, giving details and
information that his maximum demand is less than the sanctioned load or contract demand.
Provided that for domestic category consumers, having the sanctioned load upto 5kW in the last billing
cycle of previous financial year, if no communication is received from them within expiry of 30 days from
the date, of the receipt of notice, the load shall be reduced automatically; and for domestic consumers
having sanctioned load more than 5kW in the last billing cycle of previous financial year, the load shall be
reduced only on receipt of consent from the consumer.
(5)
In cases of load reduction, the Licensee shall refund the pro-rata security deposit by adjusting the same in
energy bill issued in next billing cycle. In case the refund of security deposit is in excess of the energy bill,6(cid:9) DELHI GAZETTE : EXTRAORDINARY(cid:9) [PART III]
the security deposit shall be refunded in the next energy bill(s). However, the Licensee shall also adjust
the interest accrued on the amount left with Licensee at the interest rate specified for interest on security
deposit.
Illustration:-
Suppose the security deposit of Rs. 750 was deposited @ Rs..150 /kW for initial sanctioned load of 5 kW_.
Subsequently, the -load was increased by 2 kW and an additional security deposit of Rs. 1200 @
Rs. 600/kW was deposited at the applicable rates.. Therefore, the total security deposit is Rs. 1950 for a
sanctiOned load of 7. kW. Thereafter, in case, the load is reduced by 2 kW on the basis of Maximum
Demand readings, the refund of security .deposit will be Rs. 556/- @ Rs. 27,8/ kW (1950+7 = 278)
