RPEWG • Seven Step Process for Performance Category Upgrade Request – PCUR • Phase I of Probabilistic Based Reliability Criteria Implementation Procedure, JUN 2001 • Step 1 • Project Description • Step 2 • Outage Database • Actual data if available • If not exist, use similarly situated lines • Step 3 • MTBF Calculation
RPEWG • Step 4 • Robust Line Design • In event an MTBF calculation is not possible due to limited data, an upgrade application may be made using only the Robust Line Design Features.
RPEWG • Robust Line Design • Risk Factors R1 – R11 • Risk of fire, falling tower, lightning striking at same time, station related, natural disasters, aircraft, vandalism, vegetation or single breaker fail • Design Variables D1 – D18 • Breaker configuration, tower spacing and design, shield wires, grounding, protective relaying, etc. • WECC Board Approved 12.05.03
RPEWG • Step 5 • Exposure Analysis • Hours per year customers exposed to compliance violation • Step 6 • Consequences of Outage • Step 7 • Final Report
RPEWG • Conference Call JUN 20 • Intro & review Process • Meeting with RPEWG JUL 28 • Presentation by APS & Q & A • Conference Call AUG 10 • RPEWG Approval vote • Reliability Subcommittee Vote • 8.17.06 Approval
