Solar vs Sanctioned-Load Checker
Solar vs Sanctioned-Load Checker — quick estimate
Most DISCOMs cap rooftop net-metering relative to your sanctioned load. Check if your proposed system fits — before you finalise the array — and see whether a load enhancement is needed.
Your connection
Net-metering caps and how they are measured (kW vs kWp, AC vs DC) vary by State and DISCOM. This is an indicative check, not a sanction.

We'll confirm your DISCOM's exact net-metering cap, prepare the feasibility application and, if needed, the load-enhancement route.

Assumptions & formula
Formula: allowed capacity = sanctioned load × net-metering cap %. Status = "within limit" if proposed ≤ allowed, else "exceeds".
- Cap basis (rule of thumb): many DISCOMs allow rooftop net-metering up to ~100% of sanctioned load; some cap lower or use net-billing above a threshold.
- kW vs kWp: caps may be measured against AC inverter capacity or DC kWp — confirm the basis with your DISCOM.
Verify: net-metering caps, measurement basis and enhancement rules are State/DISCOM-specific and change. Confirm against your DISCOM's current net-metering regulations and the CEA connectivity standards.
Indicative compliance check only — not a sanction. Final capacity is decided by your DISCOM's feasibility approval.
