 +The point of common coupling (PCC) is the physical location in the electricity network where the boundary between a utility's infrastructure and a customer's installation is defined, and where power exchange between them is measured.

The PCC is a key reference point in grid connection standards, microgrid design, and distributed energy resource regulation, as it determines the boundary of measurement, responsibility, and control between network operator and customer.
