Applicants Are Cautioned NOT to Incur Major Expenses Until Hydro One Approves to Connect

General Application Information
Applicants
This Application form is to be used onlybya Distributor (“LDC”) to applyto Hydro One for a Connection Impact Assessment (“CIA”) or Detailed Technical Connection Assessment (“DTCA”) on behalf of a generation proponent connecting to theLDC’sDistribution System. This application is to be accompanied with the LDC’s generation connection application as completed bythe generation proponent,which mustprovide theminimum information requirements listed in Appendix A and, if applicable, Appendices B, C and D of this application form.
Technical Requirements
For technical requirements of Hydro One’s Distributed Generation projects, refer to the “Distributed Generation Technical Interconnection Requirements Interconnections at Voltages 50kV and Below”available at:.
Application Submission Instructions
Please return the completed form, fees and other required documents by mail to:
Hydro One Networks Inc.
Attn: Dx Generation Connections
Generation Connection Application
185 Clegg Road
Markham, OntarioL6G 1B7
Important Notes

Applicants are cautioned NOT to incur major expenses until Hydro One approves to connect the proposed generation facility.
All technical submissions (Form B, Single Line Diagrams, etc.) must be signed and sealed by a licensed Ontario Professional Engineer (P.Eng.).
If you are applying for connection of a Load Displacement or Energy Storage facility, the assessment performed by Hydro One is a Detailed Technical Connection Assessment (“DTCA”). For such facilities, the term Connection Impact Assessment (“CIA”) as it appears throughout this Form B shall be interpreted to mean Detailed Technical Connection Assessment (“DTCA”).
Ifyou have anyquestions please e-mail Hydro One’s BusinessCustomer Centre at or call1-877-447-4412(Option# 2) 8:30 am to5:00 pm Monto Fri).
All fields beloware mandatory, exceptwhere noted.Incomplete applications maybe returned byHydro One Networks Inc. (“Hydro One”). Failure to provide theminimum information requirementswill result in delays in processing your application.
