Connection and Use of System Code (CUSC)

Paul Fox • July 29, 2018

 

The Connection and Use of System Code (CUSC) is the industry framework for connection to, and use of, the UK electricity transmission system.


The CUSC defines the charges associated with the connection to and use of the system, as well as the methodologies used to derive these charges. Changes to the CUSC are reviewed by a CUSC Panel and then sent to Ofgem to be approved.

 

All UK electricity suppliers must be party to the CUSC agreement. Note that, unlike the DCUSA, it carries an accession fee which is not included in Off the Shelf supply businesses .
