New Standard Connection Application Category - New Connection for Load without NMI

What is happening?

Essential Connections has been updated to include a Standard Connection Application category 'New Connection for Load without NMI'.

This category is only to be to used as part of a standard connection for load that requires network augmentation where a National Metering Identifier (NMI) is not available at the time of starting the design.

Standard connections using ‘New Connection for Load without NMI’ must provide a NMI prior to connecting any related assets. The NMI should be submitted to the Network Assurance Facilitator during the construction start-up meeting.

Note: If you choose ‘New Connection for Load without NMI’ for your connection project and you were not eligible, you will need to submit a new application using the correct application category.

What do you need to do?
