Manhattan Fault Current Map
Synchronous generation is prohibited at the grid network (125/216 volt) level. DC Generation with inverters (Fuel Cells, Photovoltaic, Micro Gen, Microturbines) or induction generation may be installed at all locations. Notwithstanding the available margin or type of generation, each proposed location and installation must be evaluated for eligibility.
Map key: Blue shading indicates potential areas for synchronous generation without fault current mitigation.* Yellow shading indicates that fault current mitigation is required for synchronous generation. The number indicates the planned year for upgrade completion.
*All applications are queued when determined to be complete by Con Edison in accordance with its procedures. Each evaluation of synchronous generation will include all prior fault current contributors on the queue. Customer DG's may require fault mitigation if the resulting fault current exceeds the capacity of the DG's associated load area.
