Embedded networks may include apartment blocks, retirement villages, caravan parks and shopping centres.
An embedded network is formed when the connection point to our distribution network functions like a parent connection point. This has multiple end-user connection points – or ‘children’ – linked in. Each of the end-user connections has their own meters to measure electricity consumption.
In this structure, the electrical installation is configured in such a way that the owner of the site (for example, a shopping centre manager), can on-sell electricity to all the occupants.
The connection process varies depending on the type of embedded network.
From 1 January 2025, new requirements apply to connect solar PV to an embedded network. Click here to access high-level guidelines outlining the requirements.
