however, it could be because the content is contained in the Design document coupled with the RASRS Guideline. PRC 12/14, Attachment A requires submittal of information regarding: 1) operating procedures, design objectives, operating, and modeling. PRC-12/14, WR2 is itself partially redundant to Protection System and Remedial Action Scheme Misoperation; however, PRC-004 only applies to Major WECC transfer Paths in the Bulk-Electric System. also Periodic Assessments addressing Corrective Action Plans, page 9. R1.3. Requirements to demonstrate that the RAS shall be designed so that a single RAS component failure, when the RAS was intended to operate, does not prevent the interconnected transmission system from meeting the performance requirements defined in Reliability Standards TPL-002-0, and TPL-003-0. WR1. For each Misoperation of a Protection System or RAS that it owns and is applied to an Element described in Section A4.2 “Facilities,” each Transmission Owner and each Distributer Provider that owns one or more transmission Protection Systems, and each Generator Owner shall…meet WR1.1 through WR1.4.” The above language from the WECC CRT is recommended for retirement. The content is duplicated in either the RAS Design and/or the RAS Procedure. The DT is recommending the content of WECC CRT, WR1 be retired and provided to the RASRS for final disposition. The scope of this SAR would allow the DT to take the additional step and relocate the language directly; however, the DT believes the RASRS is best suited to determine final disposition of the language. As such, if the DT’s recommendation is accepted, the WR would be retired under this SAR but any subsequent disposition of the affected content would be at the sole discretion of the RASRS. Finally, WECC’s obligations under the NERC Standard Remedial Action Scheme Design Guide, June 2006. Procedure to Submit a RAS for Assessment Information Required to Assess the Reliability of a RAS Guideline, October 28, 2013. Tied to Local Area Protection Scheme (LAPS) and Wide Area Protection Scheme (WAPS) definitions as used throughout the RASRS Procedure. See also: RASRS Procedure, Information Required to Assess the Reliability of A RAS, page 12. See also: PRC-(12 through Remedial Action Scheme Review and Assessment Plan, WR4.
This is also addressed in PRC-016-0.1, Special Protection System Misoperation, enforceable May 13, 2008 that becomes inactive on March 31, 2017 followed the April 1, 2017 enforcement date of Remedial Action Scheme Misoperation. PRC-016, Version 0.1 requires compliance with a regional procedure but does not impose a burden on WECC to create it. WECC’s Section 1600 quarterly reporting for WECC of Protection System Misoperations also includes RAS but does not include Corrective Action Plans for both Protection System and RAS misoperation. R1.8. Identification of the Regional Reliability Organization group responsible for the RAS Procedure. See “Introduction: This document provides a framework for the submission of a [RAS], to the [RAS} Subcommittee…. for
Regional Reliability Organization’s review procedure and the process for Regional Reliability Organization approval of the procedure. evaluation and operation within WECC.” See also: “Purpose/Responsibilities: The purpose of the RASRS is to review the reliability aspects of existing and planned Remedial Action Schemes (RAS) and to enhance grid performance within the Western Interconnection by providing a uniform review process. R1.9. Determination, as appropriate, of maintenance and testing requirements. RAS Procedure. See “B. RAS Design, 9.e) Describe how each multifunctional device is tested, both for commissioning and during maintenance testing, with regard to each function of the device.” See also: E. Commissioning, Maintenance and Testing. Attachment B Roles and Assignments Roles of WECC as the RA – proposed for retirement. These WECC CRT WRs are proposed for retirement because they are covered in The roles and assignments of WECC, the OC, the RASRS, and the RWG are dictated by the WECC Bylaws and the associated charters. To the extent any subsequent changes were needed in the form of a WECC Criterion,
