CVR Protocol No. 1Approved April 14th, 2004 • CVR Protocol No 1 can be applied to distribution systems with Residential, Commercial, and Industrial customers. • CVR Protocol No 1 is a site specific custom protocol and can be applied to distribution systems with automatic end-of-line (EOL) voltage feedback control AVFC. The objective is to hold the Veol constant. • CVR Protocol No 1 requires Esub and Veol measurements of approximately six months of CVR ‘on’ and ‘off’ day period and 6 months of CVR ‘on’ period. • Verification of energy savings is determined using statistical analysis by calculating CVR factors (weekdays and weekends) for each weather season correlated for temperature. 1
CVR Protocol No. Approved April 14th, 2004 • For each selected measurement period of on&off days, the CVR factors are statistically determined for each season (for weekdays and weekends) using the ratio of measured substation energy % change to measured average eol voltage % change. CVRf% = Esub% / Veol% • The CVR factors and Veol voltage are statistically assigned to each hour of the annual measured load shape. The total energy savings is annual sum of the hourly CVRf% * Veol% * Esub. • The Automated CVR ‘off’ setting is be 2 Volts above the CVR ‘on’ setting for two to four week periods. • Statistical analysis is performed using the UtiliData CVR Estimation Method. 2
