| Description |
Meralco simulates the proposed RE installation to the proposed RE installation to the customers load and its impact to the grid. This is to determine if the proposed RE installation will be safe to the customer and neighboring grid, or if additional facilities are needed. The simulations are performed off-line and does not cause interruption to the customers use of electricity. |
