Today’s LiveWire Spotlight reviews the proposed updates to the Definition of the BES Definition reference document – which is used by industry stakeholders to consistently determine which of their facilities are part of the Bulk Electric System and therefore subject to NERC’s Reliability Standards. Important modifications have been made to the guidance associated with Inclusion I2 (generating resources) and the E1 (radial) and E3 (local network) Exclusions.
The draft updates to the Definition of the Bulk Electric System reference document have been posted for an informal 30-day review period. Clients have until September 10, 2018 to submit their comments back to the development team.
