National Grid Electricity Distribution

NGED Connected Data DCAT Catalogue

Machine-readable DCAT catalogue exports of the entire NGED Connected Data Portal, linked from the footer of every portal page and served anonymously in four serialisations — JSON-LD (205 KB), Turtle (112 KB), N3 and RDF/XML. Not a REST API but a genuine, versionless, contract-shaped harvesting surface for the DNO's full 91-dataset catalogue.
