Angle: Explain the sanctioned-load constraint before it blocks someone's approval.
This guide must answer: - What is sanctioned load and where is it on the bill? - Why can't system size exceed it for net metering? - What if you want a bigger system — can you raise sanctioned load? - How to check this before finalising size.
Writing rules: answer the question in the first two sentences, put a real number in the opening paragraph, name the specific city or DISCOM where the answer varies, and link to two related guides and the relevant category page.
Verify before publishing: Net-metering-vs-sanctioned-load rules per state.
