G98

Also called: EREC G98, Engineering Recommendation G98 G98 is an Energy Networks Association engineering recommendation for connecting fully type-tested micro-generators up to and including 16 A per phase in parallel with public low-voltage distribution networks in Great Britain. It also applies to electricity-storage devices within its stated scope. The current GB document is G98 A1 Issue 2, published in August 2026. It sets technical connection requirements in addition to the applicable requirements of EN 50549-1. G98 matters to EV charging projects when charging infrastructure is combined with small-scale generation or storage. Larger or different generating arrangements can fall under G99 instead.
