ERCOT 2004 RELIABILITY ASSESSMENT (CONTINGENCY EVALUATION)
•Purpose
•Test ERCOT transmission system one year in advance
•Determine if meeting planning criteria
•NERC compliance testing
•Identify possible system operations concerns in advance
•Develop updated operations contingency lists
•Develop/review Remedial Actions Plans and/or Special Protection Systems
•2004 SSWG Data Set A Eight Seasonal Base Cases
•On Peak and Off Peak for each season
•Snapshot generation dispatch as outlined in SSWG Procedures
•Fast Decoupled AC analysis using PTI MUST software
•All planning contingencies on the current “B” list limited to 130 kV or above
•One run done with “locked” transformer taps and “locked” switched shunts
•Another run with “moving” transformer taps and “automatic” switched shunts
•Both runs combined to show possible differences
•Monitored all branches (lines) above 60 kV for Steady State thermal limits
•Reported any violations above 100% of Rate B
•Monitored all buses (nodes) above 60 kV for Steady State voltage limits
•Reported any voltages outside of 0.9 PU to 1.05 PU
•Used exclude file
•Used Centerpoint DTAP file (multisection line modeling)
•Merged known information from last year’s assessment in to this year
•Valid contingency and corrective action
ERCOT 2004 RELIABILITY ASSESSMENT (CONTINGENCY EVALUATION)
•2004 Summer On Peak Conditions
•1168 above rating and voltage violations (some may not be valid)
•Top twenty five contingencies with the highest number of violations

ERCOT 2004 RELIABILITY ASSESSMENT (CONTINGENCY EVALUATION)
• Proposed ROS Action Items
1. SSWG review to determine if valid contingency by indicating in workbook
(complete by Nov 15)
2. For valid contingencies TDSP’s provide corrective action and indicate
transmission additions that would resolve problems by indicating in
workbook (complete by Dec 15)
•
Examine FERC 715 not a valid response
3. TDSP’s develop any needed special protection systems (complete by Feb
15)
4. OWG review and develop remedial action plans (complete by Feb 15)
• All tasks should be completed by May 1 to maintain reliability during peak
load seasons
