[QUOTE="user 37666, post: 551660, member: 37666"] I have been trying to set up the excess solar generation output with Octopus, to get a little bit of money back from the stuff we don't manage to use, and Octopus have thrown it back at us with "...have received a rejection from your DNO as they have been notified of a Declared Net Capacity (DNC) different to the one on the MCS certificate" I believe Western Power are in charge of distribution in our area. The original suppliers (Cisco Homes) have, in just the last month or so, gone into liquidation, so we can't go through them to have the certificate corrected. The MCS site states that we can apply directly to have it corrected but the problem is that I have no idea what is supposed to be corrected. The installation consists of 17 x 405W panels feeding a Solis S5-EH1P5K-L hybrid inverter, with 4 x 5kW FOX ESS LV5200 batteries. Having inspected the MCS certificate, the total installed capacity is listed as 6.88kW, whilst the Declared Net Capacity is listed as 5.50 kW As I understand it, the inverter is capable of momentary peaks of 5.5kW output so I assume this is why this figure has been declared as the DNC, so is it as simple a case as requesting the DNC be set to the same as the TIC, 6.88kW?
