But ECCs, which recently suffered a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2013\/12\/bt-openreach-uk-hikes-ethernet-excess-construction-charges.html\" target=\"_blank\">price rise<\/a>, can add up to several thousand pounds extra to the installation cost.<\/p>\n<p>For example, in 2012\/13 there were <strong>30,616 completed EAD orders<\/strong> and these attracted total ECCs of <strong>\u00a338,129,607<\/strong>, which falls to an adjusted ECC spend of \u00a327,410,421 after you factor in recent price changes. But <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a> wants to simplify all of this by <strong>exempting the first \u00a32,800<\/strong> of ECCs and replacing it with a <strong>balancing charge of \u00a3548<\/strong>, which would apply to all orders for certain EAD services.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Ofcoms Statement<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>The proposed change in ECC charging structure is a simple measure that is likely to allow for material improvements in the end-users\u2019 experience of provision of EAD services. We acknowledge that the proposal may have a distributional impact: some CPs or end-users may pay higher ECC than they would have otherwise in the absence of the change while others will pay less.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>However we think that the positive effects are substantial enough to outweigh these possible drawbacks. On that basis, we believe the proposed change would be objectively justifiable, proportionate and not unduly discriminatory<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The &#8220;<em>distributional impact<\/em>&#8221; predominantly refers to situations where EAD orders require fewer ECCs than average and that&#8217;s &#8220;<em>particularly services which terminate in locations already served by fibre, such as exchanges<\/em>&#8220;.
