NERSA DISTRIBUTION FORMS

COMPLETION GUIDE

Date: July 2010

NERSA Distribution forms completion guide July 2010

Introduction

Municipalities are required to submit distribution forms (D-forms) to NERSA annually for two reasons:

Tariff increase reviews and Statistical purposes for the electricity industry.

The analysis of municipal financial and technical performance is done based on the information contained in the D-Forms and tariff applications. It is therefore critical that Municipalities submit duly completed and accurate information in their D-forms.

D-forms are sent to municipalities at the end of July for completion. They are also available on the NERSA website, www.nersa.org.za. Licensees are required to submit accurate and completed D-forms to NERSA by 31 October each year.

All information requested in the D-forms relates to a RING-FENCED ELECTRICITY DISTRIBUTION ACTIVITY, or Electricity Department within a Municipality. RING-FENCED means that separate accounts are kept for the electricity distribution activity. This should ensure that the revenues, costs, assets, liabilities, reserves and provisions are separately identifiable from those of any other business in the books of account of the licensee. Unfortunately, this is not always the case in a Municipality.

This guide tries to give guidance on where to get the correct information for the purpose of completing these D-forms.

A set of D-Forms comprise of the following forms which should be submitted to NERSA as per the prescribed deadlines:

D2 - Form: Market Information

D2 FORM (SECTION 1): GENERAL INFORMATION DEFINITIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS

All information requested relates to a RING-FENCED ELECTRICITY DISTRIBUTION ACTIVITY. RING-FENCED means that separate accounts are kept for the electricity distribution activity. This should ensure

that the revenues, costs, assets, liabilities, reserves and provisions are separately identifiable from those of any other business in the books of account of the licensee.

Financial information is to be stated in R’000 (For example. R1 234 567.00 should be stated as 1 235). Sales information is to be stated in MWh (NOT GWh or kWh). In sections 2, 3 and 4 the information in the actual column is in respect of the actual figures for the financial year

ending on 30 June 2010 and the information in the budget column is in respect of the budget figures for the financial year ending on 30 June 2011

Consumer definitions

A consumer is a person or legal entity who: receives a supply of electricity in terms of a legal supply agreement entered into with a Supplier of electricity and is legally responsible for payment to the Supplier for electricity and/or related services used.

A distinction is made between two types of Consumers:

1. End-use consumer:

The end-use consumer actually uses the electricity purchased to produce light, heat, processes and other forms of energy. A typical example of an end-use consumer is the domestic consumer who has an account with a supplier. In this example there is a supply agreement between the supplier and the end-use consumer. The consumer is thus also the customer.

2. Bulk Consumer:

The bulk consumer distributes electricity to groups of end-use consumers. A supplier meters the consumption for each bulk consumer (which is the total consumption of a group of end-use consumers) and bills the consumer (please see diagram overleaf). The bulk consumer may or may not meter the individual consumption of end-use consumers, but end-use Consumers have agreements with their bulk consumer regarding the payment for consumption. A typical example of a bulk consumer is in the case of blocks of flats where the bulk consumers distribute to the occupants. The licensee should provide information as metered for the bulk consumer.

Supplier and the Supply Agreement

A supplier is the licensed distributor of electricity.

The supply agreement is the legal agreement between a supplier of electricity and a consumer setting out the general conditions under which the electricity product and related services are provided, and the obligations of a supplier and the consumer towards each other. Separate agreements may be entered into for certain aspects of the same supply - e.g. networks or wheeling charges and energy charges. For each account of the consumer specific detailed information such as fixed charges, instalment payment, applicable tariffs, etc. are maintained.

Point of connection

The point of connection is the point at which the electricity installation on any premises is connected to the distribution system of a supplier. This is also referred to as the point of supply. End-use consumers may or may not have meters at the connection point where they take supply from the bulk consumer.



Consumer Classification

In order to evaluate important parameters within the major components of the end-user electricity market, the NERSA requires end-use and bulk consumers to be classified according to the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Categories defined in the fifth edition of the Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities by Statistics South Africa. The SIC Categories are groupings of economic activities across diverse industries.

Licensees are required to complete the market information by utilizing the SIC categories provided in this form. Classifying according to the SIC categories provides a standardised framework for the collection, tabulation, analysis and presentation of statistical data according to kind of economic activity.

It is understood that adequate records may not be readily available in the required format as tariffs do not necessarily coincide with the SIC Categories. It is thus recommended that the larger non-domestic Consumers of all licensed Distributors be classified according to the Major Divisions of the SIC within the information systems of Licensees.

D2 FORM (SECTION 3): ELECTRICITY SALES, NUMBER OF CONSUMERS AND SYSTEM DETAILS



The example in Excel sheet, NERSA STATS.xls can also be used to compile the information.

If no half-hourly load profiles are available, the average power factor can normally be read from the power factor meter in the Eskom supply substation.

IMPORTANT:

The percentage MWh losses is calculated as follows:

The average system load factor is calculated as follows:

The Average load factor is the average of the 12 Monthly Load Factors. This is done in the Excel sheet, NERSA STATS.xls, where the monthly accounts can be updated.

From this, the following is used in the example in Excel sheet, NERSA STATS.xls: The code for this tariff is E105 BUSINESS. This tariff consists of a fixed charge, or monthly service charge, and the cost for the consumption. Number of customers billed on this tariff for this month is 33. This is entered into the example in Excel, NERSA

STATS.xls, Sales 2009 2010 sheet. This is done for each month for each tariff Tariff for the monthly service charge is R91.16, VAT excluded. If this amount is multiplied by the number of

customers, 33, the amount of R3,008.28 was billed. The tariff for the energy consumed, in kWh, for this tariff is R0.4493/kWh. The consumption of energy billed to the customers on this tariff for this month was 73,928kWh (or units). This is

entered into the example in Excel, NERSA STATS.xls, Sales 2009 2010 sheet. This is done for each month for each tariff

If this consumption is multiplied by the rate, the amount of R33,215.85 was billed. The sum of the two amounts, R3,008.28+R33,215.85=R36,224.13, are entered into the example in Excel, NERSA

From this, the following is used in the example Excell sheet, NERSA STATS.xls: The code for this tariff is E108 KVA CONSUMER. It is important to know that this tariff also has a demand

component. This is under the code E K108 KVA CONSUMER. This tariff consists of a fixed charge, or monthly service charge, the cost for the consumption in kWh and the cost

for the maximum consumption in any integration period in kVA. Number of customers billed on this tariff for this month is 4. This is entered into the example in Excel, NERSA

STATS.xls, Sales 2009 2010 sheet. This is done for each month for each tariff Tariff for the monthly service charge is R364.65, VAT excluded. If this amount is multiplied by the number of

customers, 4, the amount of R1,458.60 was billed. The tariff for the energy consumed, in kWh, for this tariff is R0.1800/kWh. The consumption of energy billed to these customers on this tariff for this month was 112,962kWh (or units). This

is entered into the example in Excel, NERSA STATS.xls, Sales 2009 2010 sheet. This is done for each month for each tariff

If this consumption is multiplied by the rate, the amount of R20,333.16 was billed. From the second set of information, with the code E K108 KVA CONSUMER, one can also see that there are 4

customers. The tariff for the maximum demand registered, in kVA, for this tariff is R60.36/kVA per month. The summated maximum demand billed to these customers on this tariff for this month was 301kVA. If this summated maximum demand is multiplied by the rate, the amount of R18,168.36 was billed. The sum of the two amounts for the service charge and for the energy charge,

R1,458.60+R20,333.16=R21,791.76, are entered into the example in Excel, NERSA STATS.xls, Sales 2009 2010 sheet. This is done for each month for each tariff.

For the demand tariff the amount for maximum demand is also entered into the example in Excel, NERSA STATS.xls, Sales 2009 2010 sheet. This is done for each month for each of the maximum demand tariffs.



The result of this is then entered into the D2-form as shown in the next table.
