8 First Energy’s Experience on 689 Applications – New Jersey Administrative / Processing 3.17 Hr. Policy / Technical Support0.45 Hr. Engineering Review0.50 Hr. Witness Test1.50 Hr. Total5.62 Hr. Note: First Energy also had meter change-out time at 1.89 Hr. that would not be applicable to MD Net Metering Customers.

9 Level 1 Application Costs 5.62 Hr. @ $60 per Hr. $337 5.62 Hr. @ $70 per Hr.$393 5.62 Hr. @ $80 per Hr.$450

10 Level 2 Generation Less than 2,000 kW Interconnected to a radial distribution circuit Lab Certified or constructed to PJM Small Generator requirements. No Utility Upgrades

14 Level 2 Proposed Administrative / Processing 3.17 Hr. Policy / Technical Support4.00 Hr. Engineering Review 16.00 Hr. Witness Test 16.00 Hr. Meter Change Out*2.00 Hr. Total 41.17 Hr. * Loads larger than Net Metering.

15 Level 2 Application Costs 41.17 Hr. @ $60 per Hr. $2,470 41.17 Hr. @ $70 per Hr.$2,882 41.17 Hr. @ $80 per Hr.$3,294

16 Level 3 Generation Less than 10,000 kW Interconnected to a radial distribution circuit Reverse Power Relays. No Shared Transformers No New Facilities Highly unusual on AP’s System (Rare) Application Typically Level 2 or 4.

17 Level 4 Generation Less than 10,000 kW Not Level 1, 2, or 3 Common on AP’s System (Typical)

18 Meetings and Studies Scoping Meeting(s) / Information Exchange Feasibility Study Engineering Materials / Information Exchange Generator Impact Study (Safety, Reliability, Operations) Engineering Review / Custom Design / Issue Mitigation Price Facilities Study

19 Feasibility Study Location on the Circuit Circuit Substation Interface Transformer Customer/Applicant Load –Min / Max –Metering Circuit Loading –kW, rkVA - Min/Max –Summer/WInter Line Section Loading –kW, rkVA - Min/Max –Summer/WInter Voltage Regulation Scheme/Equipment –LTCs –Regulators –Capacitors Conductor Types –Overhead –Underground Overcurrent Protection Scheme/Equipment –Fault Current at Location Outage Restoration Plan –Sectionalizing –Number of Customers
