Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is the direct computer-to-computer exchange and processing of standard business forms from one business application to another. The main elements of EDI are data exchange, message translation and processing and integration into various applications.

As part of implementation of electric retail choice or retail competition pursuant to the Electric Discount and Energy Competition Act (EDECA) in 1999, the Board of Public Utilities approved an EDI protocol as the authorized manner for third party suppliers (TPSs) to enroll customers and exchange billing and metering information with electric distributions companies (EDCs). Thereafter, the gas distribution companies (GDCs) began using EDI.

Below are the current EDI guides for use in New Jersey.
