SCHEDULE 3 - DISTRIBUTED ENERGY RESOURCES INTERCONNECTION PROCESS <br />Whether the proposed DER incorporates a time delay function to prevent <br />reconnection of the generator to the system until system voltage and <br />frequency are within normal limits for a prescribed time. <br /> <br />Whether operational flexibility is reduced by the proposed DER, such that <br />transfer of the line section(s) of the DER to a neighboring distribution <br />circuit/substation may trigger overloads or voltage issues. <br /> <br />Whether the proposed DER employs equipment or systems certified by a <br />recognized standards organization to address technical issues such as, but <br />not limited to, islanding, reverse power flow, or voltage quality. <br /> <br />4.5.Identification of Construction of Facilities <br />If the proposed interconnection requires the construction of any distribution or <br />transmission facilities, the Area EPS Operator shall notify the Interconnection Customer <br />of the requirement when it provides the supplemental review results. The Area EPS <br />Operator may include a non-binding good faith estimate to construct the facilities <br />included with the supplemental review results. In lieu of providing a non-binding good <br />faith estimate to construct the necessary facilities, the Area EPS Operator may require <br />the proposed interconnection to move to the Study Process for a facility study instead. <br /> <br />Upon being presented with either the non-binding good faith estimate or the <br />requirement for a facility study, the Interconnection Customer has five (5) Business <br />Days to inform the Area EPS Operator to proceed with the proposed interconnection or <br />withdraw the Interconnection Application. <br /> <br />4.6.Supplemental Review Results <br />If the proposed interconnection passes the supplemental review screens in Section 4.4 <br />and does not require construction of distribution or transmission facilities by the Area <br />EPS on its own system, the Area EPS Operator shall provide an executable <br />Interconnection Agreement within five (5) Business Days after the supplemental review <br />screens are completed. Information regarding the Interconnection Agreement is <br />detailed in Section 5. <br /> <br />If the proposed interconnection passes the supplemental review screens in Section 4.4 <br />and the Interconnection Customer agrees to the non-binding good faith estimate of <br />construction of any distribution or transmission facilities by the Area EPS Operator, the <br />Area EPS Operator shall provide an executable Interconnection Agreement within <br />twenty (20) Business Days. Included with the Interconnection Agreement shall be non- <br />10 <br /> <br />199 <br />
