Frequently asked questions
What limits how much rooftop solar I can install?+
Three gates, tightest wins: your sanctioned load (most states cap at 80–100% of it), the scheme's kW ceiling, and the local distribution transformer's solar quota (commonly 15–30% of its kVA, shared first-come). This tool checks all three — applicants usually know only the first.
What is DT capacity and why does it block applications?+
The neighbourhood transformer can only absorb so much backfeed before voltage and protection misbehave, so DISCOMs cap solar per DT. Early applicants on your transformer consume the quota; late ones get 'technical infeasibility'. Check (and apply) early in your DT's queue — the calculator shows the headroom math.
Can I increase my sanctioned load to install more solar?+
Yes — load enhancement is a standard DISCOM application (fees scale with kW), and it lifts the consumer-cap gate. Sequence matters: enhance first, then apply for solar, since the feasibility check reads the sanctioned load on file the day it runs.
Is exceeding the net-metering cap ever worth it?+
Behind-the-meter (no-export) capacity often escapes the caps entirely — industrial captive systems with export-blocking relays exceed net-metering limits legally in many states. The trade: surplus is curtailed, so size to daytime self-consumption. The eligibility presets here include that route.
