LRS Update Meeting LRS Participants and Profiling Working Group October 27, 2005
Agenda • Process update • Sample Point Reconciliation • Interval Data Validation – TDSP’s • Interval Data File Delivery – CR’s • Action Plan
Sample Point Reconciliation • Sample point installation summary report • Summary of primary and replacement points installed by TDSP, profile type, weather zone, and stratum number • Status indicates if cell is fully installed, no. of points to install and whether replacements are available. • CSV file sent to TDSP’s
Sample Point Reconciliation Sample point installation Summary Report Only TDSP’s with outstanding installs were sent this report however any TDSP can request this report.
LRS Sample Point Replacement Guidelines • Once an (LRS) IDR has been installed, a sample point may be replaced for the following reasons: • Unsafe conditions / vicious animals • Demolition / service removed / ESI ID status changed to Inactive • De-energized for 6 or more consecutive months after IDR installed • Competitively-owned NIDR meter is to replace (LRS) IDR at Premise • ESI ID’s Profile Type is out of scope (e.g., BUSIDRRQ, NMLIGHT, NMFLAT) • Customer request for (LRS) IDR removal • Premise switches to OMR • The sample is terminated or refreshed by ERCOT. • ERCOT LRS documents can be found at: • http://www.ercot.com/Participants/loadresearchsampling.htm
Sample Point Reconciliation • Interval data cuts were compared with ‘ValidIDRCut’ events from the tracking log. Existing cuts and events have been reconciled. • Queries to detect LRS database inconsistencies such as: • Recorder ID is active, sample point has been removed • Recorder install date is earlier than Sample Point start date (excluding TXUED legacy sample points.)
Interval Data Validation • October 1, 2004 00:00 was chosen as the start of the analysis period because approx. 80 % of the IDR installations were complete at this time. • The analysis start date may move until enough validated data is available to perform the analysis. • Most validation reports begin with this date/time. • Data prior to this time has been retained but will not be validated and loaded into C/S LodeStar.
Interval Data Validation • The following validations are performed prior to loading into C/S LodeStar. • Received LS file cuts with no recorder in the LRS Recorder table • Valid recorders with no data received • Recorder indicated as removed but still receiving data • Cuts that are overdue or contain gaps. • Look for Service History changes in Profile Type, Weather Zone or Status (de-energized greater than 6 months.)

Sample Maintenance Report • See Excel handout.
Interval Data Validation • C/S LodeStar is used. • Interval Data is input (D110) • Validation tests are run (X210) • Outage, Zero, and NonNormal messages that are below the tolerance levels do not cause a cut invalid status so these messages are deleted. • The time intervals covered by the Zero messages are compared with the corresponding status in the ESI ID Service History table. The zero messages with a corresponding active status are retained. • Output simplified messages to Excel file.
C/S LodeStar Time Conventions • LS file header record date format is: "MMDDYYhhmm". • C/S LodeStar rounds the Start Time down by 1 minute and adds "00" seconds. For example, an input cut start time of 09/16/04 12:50 results in a LodeStar time of 09/16/04 12:49:00. • The cut end time is set at 1 sec before the interval end time so the end time seconds are "59". For example, an input cut end time of 11/12/04 14:00 results in a LodeStar time of 11/12/04 13:59:59.
Validation Tests • Internal and External Validation • Current Tolerances for Internal Validation • ENERGY 0.98 1.02 (Energy Discrepancy Test) • OUTAGE 96 (Uncorrected Power Outages Test) • NON-NORMAL 15 (Non-Normal Intervals Test) • ZERO 288 (Zero Intervals Test) • SPIKE 10 50% (Spike Intervals Test) • HIGH 999.99 1 (High Interval Demand Test) • LOW 0 (Low Interval Demand Test)

Validation Tests • Energy Discrepancy Test • The cut’s energy usage based on its meter readings is compared with the energy usage calculated from the interval data values. If the cut fails the energy discrepancy test, the following validation message is written. • (INTERNAL) ENERGY DIFFERENCE (M - I): 70904.634 RATIO (M/I): 1.604
Validation Tests • Uncorrected Power Outages Test • The number of consecutive intervals with status codes = ‘1’ must not exceed the limit specified by the OUTAGE parameter in the Validation Environment File. If the number of consecutive uncorrected power outages exceeds the limit, the test fails and the following validation message is written. • OUTAGES: nnnn @ 09/22/04-14:29:59 where nnnn is the number of consecutive uncorrected power outages.
Validation Tests • Number of Intervals Test • The actual number of data intervals in a cut must correspond to the difference between the cut’s start-time and stop-time. If the expected number of intervals does not equal the recorded number of intervals, the test fails and one of the following validation messages is written. • (INTERNAL) COMPUTED STOP TIME: 12/27/04-12:29:59 4 INTERVAL(S) SHORT • (INTERNAL) COMPUTED STOP TIME: 01/01/05-02:59:59 12 INTERVAL(S) LONG
Validation Tests • Non-Normal Intervals Test • The number of consecutive intervals with non-normal status codes must not exceed the limit specified by the NON-NORMAL parameter. • A non-normal status code is defined as a value of ‘2’ to ‘9’. If the number of consecutive non-normal status codes exceeds the limit, the test fails and the following validation message is written. • NON-NORMAL: nn @ 06/28/04-00:14:59 • Where nn is the number of non-normal intervals
Validation Tests • Spike Intervals Test • The cut must not include any abnormally high peaks or “spikes”. Both the number of peaks to be averaged within a cut and a percentage not to be exceeded are defined by the SPIKE parameter. If the spike test fails, the following validation message is written. • SPIKE: 1 @ 10/27/04-10:14:59 1 @ 10/27/04-09:59:59
Validation Tests • High Interval Demand Test • The number of intervals with an abnormally high demand must not exceed the limit defined by the HIGH parameter in the Validation Environment File. If the HIGH test fails, the following validation message is written. • HIGH DEMAND: 10 @ 08/24/04-17:59:59 24 @ 08/25/04-16:14:59 7 @ 08/26/04-1
Validation Tests • Low Interval Demand Test • The number of intervals with an abnormally low demand must not exceed the limit defined by the LOW parameter the Validation Environment File. If the LOW test fails, the following validation message is written. • LOW DEMAND: 10 @ 08/24/04-17:59:59
Validation Tests • Zero Intervals Test • The number of consecutive intervals in a cut whose values are 0.0 may not exceed a limit specified by the ZERO parameter. If the ZERO test fails, the following validation message is written. • ZEROS: 672 @ 08/09/04-13:14:59
Validation Tests • Current tolerances for External Validation • Time 15 15 (Recording Period Match Up Test) • Meter 2 1 (Meter Reading Match-Up Test)
Validation Tests • Recording Period Match Up Test • The stop-time of the current cut and the start-time of the following cut must be within the underlap (gap) and overlap tolerances specified on the TIME parameter. If the stop-time of the current cut is less than the start-time of the following cut an underlap exists and the following validation message is written to the validation message file. • (EXTERNAL) TIME UNDERLAP: 3974 INTERVAL(S) • If the stop-time of the current cut is greater than the start-time of the following cut and they do not fall within the same interval, an overlap exists and the following validation message is written. • (EXTERNAL) TIME OVERLAP: 3974 INTERVAL(S)
Validation Tests • Meter Reading Match-Up Test • If meter readings exist for the cut series, the meter-stop-reading of the current cut and the meter-start-reading of the following cut must be within the underlap and overlap tolerances specified in the METER parameter. If the meter-stop-reading of the current cut is less than the meter-start-reading of the following cut, an underlap exists. If the size of the underlap is greater than the limit specified in the METER parameter, the cut fails and the following validation message is written. • (EXTERNAL) METER UNDERLAP: x UNITS • where x = size of the underlap. • If the meter-stop-reading of the current cut is greater than the meter-start-reading of the following cut, an overlap exists. If the size of the overlap is greater than the limit specified in the METER parameter, the cut fails and the following validation message is written. • (EXTERNAL) METER OVERLAP: x UNITS • where x = size of the overlap.
Validation Tests • Merge Attribute Match-Up Test • The unit-of-measure and seconds-per-interval fields for the current cut must be equal to the corresponding fields for the following cut. If either of these fields is not equal, the cut fails the test and one or more of the following validation messages are written. • (EXTERNAL) UNIT OF MEASURE DISCREPANCY • (EXTERNAL) SECONDS-PER-INTERVAL DISCREPANCY: n1 FOLLOWED BY n2
Validation Discussion • Suggestions to improve the reports? • Frequency to receive reports? (i.e. weekly, monthly, quarterly) • Would the TDSP’s prefer the validation reports in quarterly pieces or everything at once? • Other issues?
