MP194 'Incorporation of Category 2 Issue Resolution Proposals into the SEC – Batch 7'

The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) currently has responsibility for receiving and responding to issues raised internally, by the DCC, and by other interested parties with regards the SEC Technical Specifications. Since its inception, several hundred issues have been raised through the Technical Specification Issue Resolution Sub-group (TSIRS). In some cases, these queries have been resolved by providing an explanation of the Specifications, whilst others have resulted in proposed amendments to the Specifications in the form of IRPs.

The one IRP included in this proposal requires changes to the Great Britain Companion Specification (GBCS).

The TSIRS has determined the solution and has requested this be progressed as a Modification Proposal for implementation into the SEC. Implementation of this IRP will ensure Devices operate as they are intended.
The Data Communications Company (DCC) has performed an initial assessment of this IRP and considers this to be non-DCC System impacting but will require DCC System testing.

The Proposed Solution is to update the Great Britain Companion Specification (GBCS) Table 10.6.2.4 clarify that the Event is created following the reception of a CCS01 Command.
