4.1 Management of NPCC Radial Source Contingencies p. p. 21
4.1 Management of NPCC Radial Source Contingencies SAR support for radial source contingencies will be limited to SAR participants. Radial Source Transactions will be limited to only one intermediary Balancing Authority unless all Balancin...

AI summary The management of NPCC Radial Source contingencies is outlined, specifying that SAR support is limited to SAR participants. Non-SAR participants must recover energy sinking within their BAs. Hourly notifications of wheelthrough transactions among SAR participants are required, and e-tags will be curtailed via phone communication.

For non-SAR events: p. pp. 27-28
For non-SAR events: If SAR is not requested, all E-tag(s) associated with the energy wheeled through BA1 and into BA2 will be curtailed on a mutually agreed upon start time and Ramp duration by the affected BAs. PUBLIC Page 19 of 44

AI summary For non-SAR events, E-tags associated with energy wheeled through BA1 into BA2 will be curtailed on a mutually agreed start time and Ramp duration by the affected BAs.

Post Contingency: p. p. 73
Post Contingency: BA1 contacts SAR Coordinator to activate SAR. The SAR Coordinator issues shares. All E-tag(s) associated with the energy wheeled through BA1 and into BA2 will be curtailed upon termination of the SAR using a ten-minute Ra...

AI summary After a contingency, BA1 contacts the SAR Coordinator to activate SAR. The SAR Coordinator then issues shares, and all E-tag(s) associated with the energy wheeled through BA1 and into BA2 will be curtailed upon termination of the SAR using a ten-minute Ramp.

3.0 Action to Mitigate Ten-Minute Reserve Shortages p. p. 92
3.0 Action to Mitigate Ten-Minute Reserve Shortages 3.1 Actions When Becoming Deficient in Ten-Minute Reserve To minimize the magnitude and duration of a Ten-Minute Reserve deficiency, a Balancing Authority may implement any or all of the...

AI summary This section outlines actions a Balancing Authority can take to mitigate shortages in Ten-Minute Reserve, including committing off-line resources, recalling exports, obtaining external resources, recalling planned outages, and utilizing interruptible load or voltage reduction.

1.6.2.2.3 Unplanned In-kind Replacement of RAS Equipment p. p. 15
1.6.2.2.3 Unplanned In-kind Replacement of RAS Equipment If a component of a RAS is replaced "in-kind" as a result of an un-planned event, then it is not required to upgrade the associated RAS to comply with these criteria. Reporting in ac...

AI summary Unplanned in-kind replacement of RAS equipment does not require upgrading the associated RAS to meet criteria, and reporting under Appendix B is not required.

5.11 Teleprotection Criteria p. p. 56
critical to the adequacy of the action taken by the RAS with due regard to the power system conditions this RAS is required to detect. The following are options for breaker failure protection: 5.14.1 For non-redundant breaker failure prote...

AI summary This section discusses teleprotection criteria, focusing on the requirements for breaker failure protection and the role of the Remedial Action Scheme (RAS) in ensuring system reliability. It outlines options for non-redundant breaker failure protection and the involvement of RAS Groups.

2.2 Issues Affecting Dependability p. p. 72
associated with the protective relays should be designed or modified as necessary to reduce their sensitivity to voltages from transients, signal noise or high resistance contact bridging. 3

AI summary The text discusses the need to design or modify protective relays to reduce their sensitivity to voltages from transients, signal noise, or high resistance contact bridging.
