Section K contains the rules for classifying and registering Metering Systems and BM Units. It sets out: which Parties are responsible under the BSC for registering Metering Systems, BM Units, Trading Units and Interconnectors; the process by which these are registered; how registrations can be transferred (including through trade sales or the 'failing Supplier' process); how Parties submit Generation Capacity and Demand Capacity estimates; how Production / Consumption status is determined; and how Line Loss Factors are established. Annex K-1 also sets out the BSC Requirements relating to the Master Registration Agreement.
