The FERC-725L information collection contains six reliability standards: MOD-025-2, MOD-026-1, MOD-027-1, MOD-031-2, MOD-032-1, and MOD-033-1.
Reliability Standards MOD-025-2, MOD-026-1, and MOD-027-1 serve the purpose of generator verification Reliability Standards. These three standards ensure:
⢠generators remain in operation during specified voltage and frequency excursions; properly coordinate protective relays and generator voltage regulator controls; and
⢠generator models accurately reflect the generatorâs capabilities and equipment performance.
Reliability Standard MOD-031-2 provides planners and operators access to actual and forecast demand and energy data as needed to perform resource adequacy studies.
Reliability Standards MOD-032-1 and MOD-033-1 were designed to replace, consolidate and improve upon past MOD standards by addressing system-level modeling data and validation requirements necessary for developing planning models and the Interconnection-wide cases that are integral to analyzing the reliability of the Bulk-Power System.
The burden for the FERC-725L information collection is experiencing both reductions and increases. The reductions are due to the removal of one-time burdens associated with Reliability Standards MOD-025-2, MOD-026-1, MOD-027-1, MOD-032-1, MOD-033-1, and MOD-031-2 . Three reliability standards had increases to their respective annual burdens (MOD-025-2, MOD-026-1, and MOD-027-1) due to adjustments to the number of affected respondents. Two reliability standards experienced decreases to their respective annual burdens for the same reason (MOD-032-1 and MOD-033-1). The annual burden estimate for the MOD-031-2 Reliability Standard remains unchanged in this extension request.
