What this family covers.
These codes share a charging method. The differences are in the rates, the time bands and who each code is for.
What is on the bill
- Daily access
- Time-of-use energy
- kVA demand charge
Solar and battery
Works like N19 at the parent meter. Solar and battery decisions belong at the parent connection, not the child meters.

N20LV Seasonal TOU Demand — Embedded NetworkMain connections for embedded networks above 160 MWh a year at low voltage.
N20 LV Seasonal TOU Demand — Embedded Network
Who it’s for
Main connections for embedded networks above 160 MWh a year at low voltage.
What you pay
You pay fixed and energy charges. The bill also uses the highest kVA reading in set periods.
If you get solar
Solar can reduce daytime grid use. If the highest kVA reading occurs after solar output falls, solar alone will not remove it. Solar does not correct poor power factor.
If you get a battery
A battery can reduce the active-power part of the kVA peak. Check power factor before you size it.
Check before you decide
- Confirm this code on a current retailer bill.
- Use 12 months of interval data. Check the time of each billed peak.
- Get kW, kVA and power-factor data from the billing meter.
- Use data from the embedded network parent meter.
2026–27 network prices
What it costs, and when
These are the network’s charges only. Your retailer adds its own prices on top.
What the network charges
- Daily
- 2655.4 c/day
- High-season peak
- 6.71264 c/kWh
- Low-season peak
- 6.08124 c/kWh
- Off-peak
- 4.66752 c/kWh
- High-season demand
- 58.421 c/kVA/day
- Low-season demand
- 53.163 c/kVA/day
When the rates apply
Large-demand periods apply. Peak is 16:00–20:00 on business days. All other times are off-peak. Demand is set from a 30-minute interval in the peak period.
Illustrative example
Reduce an N20 parent-meter kVA peak
- The parent-meter billed peak falls by 50 kVA.
- The reduction holds for the full 30-minute peak interval.
- The high-season month has 31 days.
50 kVA × 58.421 c/kVA/day × 31 days ÷ 100$905.53 difference in the network demand component for that month.A later parent-meter peak can set a new maximum. Child-meter reductions only help when they reduce the coincident parent peak.

Peak-kVA control
A controlled battery may reduce the site maximum, but the bill is based on apparent power. Power factor and reactive load can be as important as battery kW.
A battery can reduce these
- The active-power contribution to the measured kVA maximum.
- Peak-period grid energy when the battery discharges at the same time.
- Solar spill that can be stored without sacrificing the required peak reserve.
A battery can’t change these
- Daily access, metering and other fixed charges.
- Reactive-power demand unless the inverter and control design explicitly provide power-factor support.
- A new maximum created after the battery empties or misses dispatch.
You’d need to check
- At least 12 months of interval data, including every billed maximum.
- Demand timestamps, seasonal windows and billing reset rules.
- kW, kVA, kvar and power-factor data at the billing meter.
- Retailer rates plus the network tariff—not a blended cents-per-kWh assumption.
Questions about embedded network tariffs.
Short answers to the things people ask before they change a tariff.
What is N20?
N20 is the Endeavour Energy LV Seasonal TOU Demand — Embedded Network tariff. It is a available low voltage tariff for Embedded-network parent connections above 160 MWh a year at low voltage. The N19-style seasonal energy and kVA demand structure for an embedded-network parent NMI.
Can solar or a battery reduce a embedded network bill?
Works like N19 at the parent meter. Solar and battery decisions belong at the parent connection, not the child meters. For N20, the battery signal is strong: A controlled battery may reduce the site maximum, but the bill is based on apparent power. Power factor and reactive load can be as important as battery kW.
How do the embedded network network charges work?
The charges are Daily access, Time-of-use energy, kVA demand charge. Large-demand periods apply. Peak is 16:00–20:00 on business days. All other times are off-peak. Demand is set from a 30-minute interval in the peak period.
Which Endeavour Energy embedded network code applies to my site?
The single parent meter that on-sells power inside a building: shopping centres, business parks. The code on your retailer bill is the starting point. Your retailer must confirm any tariff assignment or change.
