MCR078 : Adding Registered Company Number to Market Systems
ESBN is requesting the IGG to rescind this MCR , for these reasons:
This MCR proposes putting the Registered Company number on market messages for change of supplier and for change to customer details (>100kVA)
The reason for the change request is to prevent ESBN inferring a change of legal entity when in fact it is a mis-spelling or a rebranding of the company and thereby preventing the unnecessary sending of a connection agreement.
However, this would involve a substantial effort to introduce a new layer of validation and administration including the data capture of these numbers and onto the CMS
• The likelihood of this MCR making its way onto the priority list must be small given that it is on the queue since 2006.
• Also the Market has operated without this functionality up to now
MCR0174
Allow incomplete set of reads for multiple meters to be accepted by ESBN
Requesting the IGG to rescind this MCR
IGG 23-05-2012

MCR0174:Allow incomplete set of reads for multiple meters to be accepted
The intention of this MCR is to allow a Supplier to submit a 210 MM with missing meter reads without being rejected where there are multiple meters on site.
The MCR proposes that ‘at a site with multiple meters, if a customer is only able to gather one read due to the other meter being obstructed or broken, the 210MMwould be submitted with 1 actual read and 1 blank read’.
From the MCR, ‘valuable read data is being lost and that there are somelegitimate cases where it is very difficult to read both meters (e.g. no access to one of the meters). If a customer is able to provide a partial set of actual reads for their meters, it is better than not providing any actual reads. The argument is that customers are asking for their reads to be used but the reads are continually being rejected by ESBN as they fail validation in terms of being a complete set of reads. These actual reads should be keptand used to build a more accurate read history for the customer’

ESBN is requesting the IGG to rescind this MCR for these reasons:
1. Substantial under or over charges could be masked or go undetected for some time, should this MCR be implemented
2. ESBN need 260MM from Suppliers so that we can investigate if there are suspected problems with a meter
3. Volumes appear to be low ?

1. ESBN is requesting the IGG to rescind this MCR for these reasons:
• This MCR would allow an incomplete set of customer reads to be accepted when there are known or suspected problems at a site
• This MCR looks for missing reads to be estimated and therefore ESBN may be unaware that there is any issue at the site. This could persist for some time without correction of the underlying problem
• Therefore, substantial under or over charges could be masked or go undetected for some time , should this MCR be implemented

2. ESBN is requesting the IGG to rescind this MCR for these reasons:
• ESBN need 260MM from Suppliers so that we can investigate if there are suspected problems with a meter
• This MCR cites as examples reasons why an incomplete set of meter reads would be submitted by Suppliers to ESBN as
………. a site with multiple meters, if a customer is only able to gather one read due to
the other meter being obstructed or broken……
• The information that Suppliers would provide on the MM260 include contact details for the Customer including their phone number as well as access details

3. ESBN is requesting the IGG to rescind this MCR for these reasons:
Volumes appear to be low ?
• 3% of all reject message 303R in 2011 had reject reason IID
IID ‘The original readings provided contained invalid or incomplete data to allow Data Processor to process the readings’
• ESBN would make use of valid Customer reads; a workaround has been provided for Suppliers , but there has been little or no take up
• Special note for NSH meters : In cases where NSH meters are not being used , Suppliers still need to send in the NSH meter reading even where there has been no advance since the last reading
