  • Annex

    A N N E X E
    1. Definitions

    For the purposes of these rules, the following terms have the following meanings:

    1. Absorption of reactive power

    Electrical transmission reactivates by the connection point intended to serve the user of the public electricity network.

    1. 2. Food

    When a user is connected to (x) public network (x) (s) by several power supplies, it is contractually appropriate for the designation of its main, complementary and emergency power supplies with the (s) manager (s) of the public network (x) (s) to (x) which (s) it is connected.

    1. 2. Main power (s)

    The main (s) power(s) of a doi user (ven) will allow you to ensure that the user has the power of withdrawal that he has subscribed and/or the maximum injection power agreed upon in the normal operation of the user's electrical works. The normal operating regime has contractually agreed between the user and the (s) manager (s) of the (x) public network (s) to (x) which (s) it is connected, in accordance with the quality commitments contained in the corresponding access contract.

    1. 2. 2. Emergency supply

    A power supply of a user is a backup power supply if it is maintained under voltage, but is not used for the transfer of energy between the public network and the installations of one or more users only in case of unavailability of all or part of its or their main and complementary power supplies.
    The dedicated part of a rescue power supply is the part of the public networks that is only crossed by streams having for destination one or more connection points of one or more emergency power supplies of that user or other user.
    Flows taken into account to establish the dedicated portion of the emergency power supplies are those that are established under the operating regime in the event of unavailability of all or part of its other power supplies, electrical works of the user(s) agreed contractually with the (s) manager(s) of the public network (x) to the (x) which (s) it is connected (s) are (s)have)

    1. 2. 3. Additional

    The power supplies of a user who are neither major power supplies nor emergency power supplies are the complementary power supplies of this user.
    The dedicated part of a user's complementary feed is the part of the public networks that is only crossed by streams having for origin or destination one or more connection points of that user.
    Flows taken into account to establish the dedicated part of the complementary feeds are those that are established under the normal operating system of the user's electrical works contractually agreed with the (s) manager (s) of the (x) public (s) network (s) to the (x) which (s) it is (s) connected (s), given the topology of the public networks and whatever the operating maneuvers.

    1. 3. Cell

    A cell is a set of electrical appliances installed in an electric position and includes a main cut-off device (usually a circuit breaker), one or more switches, measuring reducers and protective devices.

    1. 4. Time class

    For any tariff for the use of public electricity networks, it is called time class for all hours of the year during which the same rate coefficient applies.

    1. 5. Network access contract

    The network access contract is the contract covered by theArticle 23 of Act No. 2000-108 of 10 February 2000 modified to define the technical, legal and financial conditions of a user's access to a public transportation or distribution network for the purpose of removing and/or injecting electrical energy. It is concluded with the public network manager either by the user or by the provider on behalf of the user.

    1. 6. Measurement curve

    The measurement curve is the set of mean timed values of a measured size, on consecutive integration periods and the same duration. The load curve is a measurement curve of the active power removed.
    The integration periods are consecutive time intervals of the same duration during which the average values of an electrical size vary over time are calculated. When these rules have that sizes are calculated by integration period, the value of these values is reduced during each integration period to their average value during that period.

    1. 7. Counting device

    The counting device consists of all active and/or reactive energy counters at the counting point, cabinets, cabinets or panels, as well as, where applicable, the following additional equipments that are dedicated to it: BT measuring reducers, rate signal receivers, synchronization devices, counting data rate forming devices, power control interfaces for rotation
    An advanced meter is a counting device connected to telecommunication networks, which can be configured and remotely accessed from information systems administered by the public network manager. The recovery and control of the flow at the connection point of the installation are automated.

    1. 8. Area of tension

    The voltage areas of public transport and distribution networks in alternative current are defined by the table below:

    Click on the "Facsimile" link at the bottom of this page


    The rates for users connected to public networks in HTA 2 are those in the HTB 1. In all of these rules, the rates for users connected to public networks in HTA 1 are entitled HTA voltage rates.

    1. 9. Reactive power supply

    Electrical transmission reactivated by the connection point intended for the power of the public electricity network by the user.

    1. 10. Index

    Energy indexes represent the temporal integration of effective values of a power, independently for each quadrant, from a selected temporal origin.

    1. 11. Active power injection

    Electrical transmission active by the connection point intended for the power of the public electricity network by the user.

    1. 12. Set of bars

    Three-phase set of three metal rails or three conductors, each of which consists of a set of points, identical voltages, common to each phase of a three-phase system that allow the connection of the installations (instruments, lines, cables) between them. A bar set is not a link (as defined below) within the meaning of these tariff rules.

    1. 13. Liaison

    A connection is made up of a circuit, a set of conductors and, where applicable, a guard cable.

    1. 14. Transformation work

    Transformation works are the works of public electricity networks that are located at the interface between two different voltage areas.

    1. 15. Connection points

    The (s) connection point(s) of a user to the public network coincides (nt) with the limit of ownership between the user's electrical works and the electrical works of the public network and generally corresponds (ent) to the end of an electrical work, materialized by a cut-off organ. By cutting organ, a device is installed on an electrical network and allows a non-zero current to be interrupted between the two ends of this device.
    For a user with several points of connection to public networks in HTB or HTA, for the application of these rules, it is considered that all or part of these points are confused, if in the normal operating system of the user's electrical works contractually agreed with the (s) manager of the (s) public network (x) (s), they are connected by electrical works of that user to the connection voltage.

    1. 16. Profile

    System used by public network managers to calculate consumption or production, half an hour per half an hour, of users for whom the replenishment of flows is not carried out from a measurement curve, with a view to determining the deviations of their balance managers. This system is based on the determination, for user categories, of the form of their consumption or production (the profiles).

    1. 17. Active power (P)

    The active power P means, at any point in the electrical network, the average energy flow in an established diet.

    1. 18. Apparent power (S)

    The apparent power S represents the amplitude of the instantaneous power signal at any point in the power grid.

    1. 19. Reactive power (Q) and reactive energy

    Reactive power Q is equal to the active power that multiplies the tg w ratio.
    Reactive energy means the entire reactive power Q for a specified period of time. Reactive energy is stored as an electromagnetic field in the electric grid environment, but is not consumed by its users.

    1. 20. Pond ratio phi (tg w)

    The phi tangent ratio (tg w) measures, at any point in the electrical network, the dephasing of the voltage and intensity signals. The tg w ratio is an important parameter of the driving and safety of the power grid.

    1. 21. Active power removal

    Electrical transmission active by the connection point intended to serve the user of the public electricity network.

    1. 22. User

    A user of a public transportation or distribution network is any natural person or institution of a legal entity, including public network managers, directly feeding this public network or directly serviced by that network.

    2. Structure of rates of use
    Public networks

    The following tariffs are expressed excluding all levies or taxes applicable to the use of public electrical networks, including, in particular, the tariff contribution referred to in I of section 18 of the Act of 9 August 2004.
    In accordance with the II of section 4 of the amended Act of 10 February 2000, which prescribes the coverage of all costs incurred by managers of these networks, including the costs resulting from the execution of missions and public service contracts, and in section 2 of amended Decree No. 2001-365 of 26 April 2001, they cover:
    ― the costs associated with the establishment of operating reserves that include the costs related to the acquisition by managers of public networks of the voltage holding system services and the costs of establishing primary and secondary frequency holding reserves;
    ― the costs related to the operation of the equilibrium responsible device for consumption and/or electricity production sites with a connection point to public transport and distribution networks;
    - the counting, controlling, rotation, validation, profiling and transmission of count data;
    - the share of the costs of the associated benefits realized under the monopoly of public network managers not covered by the rates of these benefits;
    ― the share of the costs of connecting and extending public power grids that are not covered by contributions to public network managers when they are masters of connecting work.
    By exception, certain services specifically identified, made at the request of the user or its fact, are subject to a separate billing, in particular under the conditions provided by the (the) decision (s) approving the (the) tariff proposal (s) relative (s) to the associated benefits realized under the monopoly of the managers of the public electricity networks in force, on the part of their costs not covered by the tariffs for use of the public electricity networks in the following 3 The same applies to the use of interconnections with the transport networks of neighbouring countries that can be charged according to the results of market mechanisms established pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1228 / 2003 of 26 June 2003.
    The network access contract specifies the (s) point(s) of user connection to the relevant public network and the tariff applied to it. For each connection point, it also specifies the connection voltage domain, the pulling power subscribed by the user, the counting device used. The subscribed welding power is defined at the beginning of a period of 12 consecutive months for the entire period. The network access contract provides the conditions under which the subscribed welding power can be changed during this period.
    In each connection point, the price paid annually for the use of a public electricity network is the sum of:
    - the annual (s) component (s) of management (CG);
    - the annual (s) counting component (s) (CC);
    - the annual injection component (CI);
    - the annual component of the welding (CS);
    ― the monthly components of subscribed power exceedances (CMDPS);
    - the annual component of complementary and emergency foods (CACS);
    – the conventional connection point grouping component (CR);
    ― for public network managers, the annual component of the use of transformation works (CT), the compensation for the operation of connections to the same voltage as the public upstream network and the large cold outbreaks;
    - the annual component of scheduled one-time exceedances (CDPP);
    – the annual reactive energy component (ERC).
    These components apply notwithstanding any provisions that are contrary to the terms of reference, concession agreements and contracts, including those relating to the billing of operating, maintenance and renewal fees.
    The energy to be taken into account to calculate the annual injection and removal components in each connection point is the energy corresponding to the physical flow at the connection point concerned, measured by integration period by the contractually agreed counting device.
    When a user is connected to the public electricity network for a period of less than one year, the fixed share of the utility rates defined in sections 3 to 13 below is calculated on a prorata temporis with a monthly step without the amount charged to be less than 1 / 12th of the fixed share.

    3. Annual Management Component (CG)

    The annual network access contract management component covers the costs of managing user records, physical and telephone user reception, billing and recovery. For HTA and BT voltage areas, its amount is based on the terms and conditions for establishing this contract by the relevant public network manager either directly with a user of this network or with the exclusive provider of the site of a user of this network pursuant to section 23 of Act No. 2000-108 of February 10, 2000, as amended.
    The annual access contract management component of an exclusive supplier is also applicable:
    - to consumers who have not made use of the faculty provided for in Article 22 of Act No. 2000-108 of 10 February 2000 amended;
    – to users who benefit from a purchase rate prior to amended Act No. 2000-108 of 10 February 2000.

    apparent power overtaking

    For BT users above 36 kVA whose connection point is equipped with counters measuring overtakings, ΔS, between the apparent power observed every minute on a rolling quadratic average and the power subscribed, the monthly components of apparent power overtaking subscribed relative to this point are established each month, for each of the temporal classes of the month considered on the basis of the duration of overtaking h (in)

    CMDPS = 11. h
    8. 2. Annual welding component
    BT voltage range up to 36 kVA included

    For the establishment of the annual component of their withdrawals to the BT voltage field up to the subscribed power of 36 kVA included, users choose, for a total period of 12 consecutive months except as provided for in section 15, one of the following four rates:
    short use;
    medium use;
    medium use with temporal differentiation;
    long use.
    For the price of their choice, they define a subscribed power, PSsubcrite, by multiple of 1 kVA.
    When the control of power overruns is provided by a circuit breaker at the interface with the public network, the power subscribed is equal to the control power of the monitoring equipment that controls the circuit breaker.
    In each of the connecting points to the BT voltage field up to the subscribed power of 36 kVA included, the annual component of the pull-outs is based on the following formula:

    You can consult the formula, not reproduced below, in

    Complementary and relief supplies established at the request of users are billed according to the terms below. The annual component of complementary and relief supplies (CACS) is equal to the sum of these components.

    9. Additional supplies

    The dedicated parts of a user's complementary diets are subject to a billing of the electrical works that compose it. This billing is based on the length of these dedicated parts according to the following scale:

    9. 2. Emergency supplies

    The dedicated parts of a user's emergency power supplies are billed by the electrical works that make up it. This billing is based on the length of these dedicated parts according to the scale of Table 15 above. The power subscribed to the emergency power supply is less than or equal to the power subscribed to the main power supply.
    When a backup power supply is shared between several users, the billing of the dedicated parts of the emergency power supplies and crossed by streams that are intended for the connection points of several users is distributed among these users prorated to the powers they have subscribed to this emergency power supply.
    When the emergency power supply is at the same voltage area as the main power supply and at the request of the user it has been connected to a transformer of the public network different from the transformer used for its main power supply, the billing of the dedicated parts of the emergency power supply is equal to the sum of the component resulting from the application of the scale of Table 15 above and the component established according to the scale of Table 16 below, corresponding to the costing

    10. Consolidation component (CR)

    A user connected to a public network in several points of connection to the same public network in the same HTB or HTA voltage area and equipped with measuring curve meters for each of these points can, if he wishes, benefit from the conventional grouping of all or part of these points for the application of the pricing described in sections 5, 6 and 7, with the payment of a grouping component. In this case, the annual injection component (CI), the annual welding component (CS), the monthly components of subscribed power overtaking (CMDPS), the annual programmed one-time overtaking component (CDPP) and the annual reactive energy component (CER) are based on the sum of the physical fluxes measured at the connected points concerned. The possibility of conventionally regrouping the connection points to the same public network is limited to the perimeter of the same distribution concession for the managers of public distribution networks and to that of the same site for other users.
    The consolidation of the reactive energy streams of the connection points is only possible in cases where these connection points meet the conditions mentioned in the technical reference documentation of public network managers.
    The grouping component (CR) is based on the length of the existing public electrical network that physically allows this grouping, regardless of the operating conditions and the transit capacity available on networks that allow the grouping. The amount of this component is calculated according to the following formula, according to grouped PSsubcrite, the power subscribed for all points conventionally grouped and l, the smallest total length of the electrical works of the public network concerned physically allowing the grouping.

    CR = l. k. Subcrite grouped

    The k coefficient is defined in table 18 below:

    11. Specific provisions relating to annual components of removals (CS)
    Public distribution network managers

    11. 1. Annual Transformation Work (CT) Component
    A public distribution network manager who operates downstream of its connection point one or more connections, whether air or underground, to the same voltage area as the downstream voltage of the transformer to which it is connected directly, without the intermediary of a connection upstream of its connection point, may request to benefit from the annual component of the pull-outs (CS) applicable to the voltage domain directly superior to that of the connection point. In this case, it must pay an annual component of the use of transformation works, reflecting the cost of processors and cells. This component is calculated according to the following formula, based on its subscribed power PSsubcrite.

    CT = k. PSouscrite

    The k coefficient used is that defined in table 19 below:

    Table 19

    This faculty may be combined with that of conducting tariff reunification, as defined in section 10. In this case, it is first applied to the application of the tariff to the field of tension above each connection point and then to the above-mentioned rate grouping.

    11. 2. Licensing compensation
    at the same voltage as the public network upstream

    A public distribution network manager who operates downstream from its connection point of the connections to the same voltage domain as the connections located upstream of this connection point benefits from this compensation when the pricing that is applied to the connection point is that of the voltage domain of this point.
    In this case, the annual welding component (CS) of this connection point is calculated according to the following formula:
    ― l1, the network length operated in the N voltage domain by the public distribution network manager;
    ― l2, the smallest network length operated in the N voltage domain by the public network manager to whom it is connected that connects its connection point to a voltage transformer of this manager;
    ― CTN / N + 1 is the annual component of the use of transformation works between the voltage areas N + 1 and N defined in section 11. 1.

    11. 3. Crestling large cold

    Public distribution network managers can benefit from the upstream public network manager to which they are connected with an outbreak of their power overruns in the event of severe cold. This provision is implemented in a transparent and non-discriminatory manner.

    12. Annual overtaking component
    programmed (CDPP)

    For one-time overtakings scheduled for work during the period from May 1 to October 31 and previously notified to the public network manager, a user whose connection point, not exclusively fed or served by a (s) emergency power supply, is equipped with a measurement curve counter and connected to HTB or HTA, may request the application of a specific scale for the calculation of its power overtaking component.
    In this case, during the period during which this scale is applied, the power overruns against the subscribed power are the subject of the following billing, which replaces the billing of the subscribed power overruns defined in Section 6. 2 and 7. 3.

    You can consult the formula, not reproduced below, in
    Click on the "Facsimile" link at the bottom of this page


    The power overruns compared to the P-signed power are calculated by 10-minute integration period. The applicable k factor is defined in table 20 below:

    Users produce in support of their application request for the specific scale for the calculation of the subscribed power overtaking component, any element to justify the reality of the work to be carried out on their electrical installations. When this application comes from a public distribution network manager and is the result of an application by a user connected to its network, the public distribution network manager transmits the above-mentioned elements to the public network manager upstream, and provides the user's maximum power request that will be to cut back over the public distribution network manager and charge in accordance with the terms applicable to scheduled one-time overruns.
    The application of this provision is limited for each connection point at least once a calendar year, for use of not more than 14 days. For the count of the number of applications of this provision by connection point, applications made at the request of public distribution network managers are not taken into account when they are the result of a user's request connected to their network. Unused days cannot be deferred.
    The public network manager, or if applicable the upstream public network manager, may refuse to a user or suspend the application of this provision, because of the operating constraints it provides on the public network that it operates. This refusal or suspension is motivated and notified in parallel to the Energy Control Board.

    13. Annual Reactive Energy Component (ERC)

    In the absence of counting devices to record physical streams of reactive energy, public network managers may include in their reference technical documentation transparent and non-discriminatory modalities for estimating these flows.
    The provisions of Section 13. 1 and 13. 2 does not apply to connection points located at the interface between two public electricity networks.

    13. Welding flux

    When physical energy streams at a connection point are welding streams, public network managers provide free reactive energy:
    - up to the tg φmax report defined in table 21 below, from November 1 to March 31, from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. from Monday to Saturday;
    ― by exception, for connection points where the user opted for a rate with temporal differentiation, up to the tg φmax ratio defined in Table 21 below, during peak hours and full winter hours as well as full November and March hours of options at 8 time classes;
    - without limitation outside these periods.
    During periods subject to limitation, the reactive energy absorbed in the HTB, HTA and BT areas above 36 kVA beyond the tg φmax ratio is charged according to Table 21 below:

    Table 21

    13. 2. Injection flow

    When the physical energy streams active in a connection point are injection fluxes, and the installation is not controlled in voltage, the user undertakes, on the one hand, not to absorb reactive power in the BT voltage field and, on the other hand, to provide or absorb in the HTA voltage field a quantity of reactive power determined by the public network manager and fixed in
    In the BT voltage area, for power installations greater than 36 kVA, the absorbed reactive energy is charged according to Table 22 below.
    In the HTA voltage field, the reactive energy provided or absorbed beyond the tg φmax ratio or below the tg φmin ratio is charged according to Table 22 below.
    However, below a low monthly production threshold, is charged according to Table 22 below the reactive energy provided or absorbed below the tg φmin ratio or beyond a monthly reagent threshold.
    The Public Distribution Network Manager sets the low production threshold and the monthly reagent threshold. It determines the values tg φmax and tg φmin of the thresholds of the ratio tg φ per hourly range.

    When the installation is regulated in voltage, and the user does not benefit from a contract as provided for in section 15-III of Act No. 2000-108 of 10 February 2000, as amended, the user undertakes to maintain the voltage at the connection point of the installation in a range determined by the public network manager and fixed according to the rules published in the technical reference documentation of the public network manager to whom it is connected.
    During an excursion of the voltage outside of its contractualized range, the user is charged according to Table 23 below of the gap between the reactive energy that its installation actually provided or absorbed and that it should have provided or absorbed to maintain the tension in the contractual range of its operating agreement, within the limits of its constructive capacities defined by the diagrams [U, Q] of its connection agreement. These elements are established according to the rules published in the technical reference documentation of the public distribution network manager.

    13. 3. Specific provisions relating to the annual reactive energy component between two managers of public electricity networks
    At each point of connection they share, the managers of public networks contractually agree on the amount of reactive energy they exchange, fixed according to the active transited energy, according to the rules published in the technical reference documentation of the manager of the public transport network or, in his absence among the contractors, of the injector manager.
    Reactive energy provided beyond the tg φmax ratio or absorbed below the tg φmin ratio is charged by connection point according to Table 24 below.
    The values tg φmax and tg φmin of the thresholds of the tg φ ratio by connection point have contractually agreed by time range between managers of public networks. The term contractualized tg φmax is less than 0, 4 and takes into account, by default, the historical values of the tg φ ratio observed.

    14. Rate grid indexing

    Either M the anniversary month of the effective date of these tariff rules.
    Each year N starting in 2010, the following component level is mechanically adjusted on the 1st day of the month M:
    - the annual management component applicable to HTA and BT voltage areas (A1 coefficient);
    - the annual counting component applicable to HTA and BT voltage areas;
    - the annual component of the wetirages applicable to all areas of tension (adjustment of single coefficients a2, b and di);
    ― the monthly components of subscribed power exceedances applicable to the HTB voltage field (coefficient; the coefficients applicable to other voltage levels are adjusted automatically as a result of the adjustment of the coefficients a2).
    The tariff grid effective on the 1st day of the M-month of the N-year is obtained by adjusting the tariff grid in effect on the previous month of the evolution of the Harmonized Consumer Price Index, a cost-change factor and a load and product control factor (CPR).

    14. 1. Field of tension HTB

    For the HTB voltage field, the rate grid is mechanically adjusted to the following percentage:

    ZN = IPCHN ― X + KN

    NZ: percentage of changes in the tariff grid effective on the 1st day of the M-month of year N compared to the one in effect on the previous month.
    IPCHN: percentage of evolution between the average value of the monthly Harmonized Consumer Price Index ― France on the calendar year N ― 1 and the average value of the same index on the calendar year N ― 2, as published by INSEE (identifiing: 000671193).
    X': cost change factor equal to 0, 4%.
    KN: CRCP posting factor for year N, calculated on the basis of the CRCP balance as at December 31 of year N ― 1 and the already completed discharges. The absolute value of the KN coefficient is capped to 2%.

    14. 2. HTA and BT voltage areas

    For HTA and BT voltage areas, the tariff grid is mechanically adjusted to the following percentage:

    ZN = IPCHN ― X + KN

    NA: percentage of changes in the tariff grid effective on the 1st day of the M-month of year N compared to the one in effect on the previous month.
    IPCHN: percentage of evolution between the average value of the monthly Harmonized Consumer Price Index ― France on the calendar year N ― 1 and the average value of the same index on the calendar year N ― 2, as published by INSEE (identifiing: 000671193).
    X': cost change factor equal to ― 1.3%.
    K'N: CRCP posting factor for year N, calculated on the basis of the CRCP balance as at December 31 of year N ― 1 and the already completed discharges. The absolute value of the K'N coefficient is capped to 2%.

    14. 3. Arrest rules

    When adjusting the rate grids, the rules for rounding are as follows:
    ― for HTB and HTA voltage areas, the coefficients of the fixed and variable parts of the annual components of the withdrawals without temporal differentiation are rounded to the nearest euro centime;
    ― the other coefficients of the variable parts of the annual components of the withdrawals are rounded to the nearest centenary of euro centime;
    ― for the HTB voltage field, the coefficients of the monthly components of the assumed power exceedances are rounded to the nearest euro centime;
    ― the other coefficients of the fixed parts of the annual components of the withdrawals as well as annual components of the management and counting are rounded to the divisible value by the nearest 12.

    15. Transitional provision
    on the implementation of these tariff rules

    During the first six months of application of these tariff rules and for HTA and BT voltage areas, users (or third parties authorized by them) choose, for each connection point, their tariff option without having to meet consecutive 12-month periods since their previous tariff option choice. This provision does not apply to the withdrawal power subscription.
