ESB Charge to reduce Max Incoming Capacity [MIC]

Calahonda52 · 2015-04-26 11:43:44

ESB reduced, for free, the MIC once for a friend who has a company which he set up in a brand new build which he is leasing. Just looked at the bill recently and I saw that the MIC is about twice what it needs to be: ESB say they want a fee of 7,000 plus VAT to have it reduced again. Is this normal? Thanks.

"Stranded assets" maybe ? they fitted gear to cater for the higher load, that stuff won't be needed if you reduce again

and/or

"Only one free reduction and one free upward adjustment will be processed per customer. "

( see attached )

7000 ? they'll consult someone who knows what they're at the next time

the freebie was availed of by the landlord before my pal leased it.
