Full Description
Scope
This recommended practice focuses on the factors that should be considered for planning, operation and maintenance of the distribution network. It provides approaches and good practices relevant to planning, operation and maintenance considerations such as risk factors and event identification, classification of risk types, equipment and network risk evaluation, risk grade classification, risk early-warning, risk prevention control, risk dynamic tracking and risk simulation. This recommended practice not only applies to the operation risk evaluation but also to guide the planning and construction and maintenance of traditional distribution power system, micro-grid system and smart distribution network with the access of large scale Distributed Generations and flexible load.
Purpose
This recommended practice aims at the risk identification and assessment, technical guidance and methods for smart distribution networks in the planning and operation stages. The implementation of this recommended practice will provide support for improving planning and construction plan and changing the operation mode, to enhance the safe, reliable and economic operation of distribution networks, advance the use of distributed generations and promote the development of relevant industries and the technological progress of risk identification and evaluation.
Abstract
New IEEE Standard - Active - Draft.This recommended practice presents the risk factors that should be considered for the planning, operation, and maintenance of the distribution network. It also provides the approaches and practices for risk identification and evaluation, including the identification of risk factors and events, classification of risk types, evaluation of equipment and network risks, as well as the grading, warning, prevention measures, dynamic tracking, and simulation of risks. This recommended practice can be applied to the operation risk evaluation and guides the planning, construction, and maintenance of conventional power systems, microgrids, and smart distribution networks with high penetration of distributed energy resources (DER), and flexible loads.
