Available Flowgate Rating Sample Clauses
The Available Flowgate Rating clause defines the maximum amount of electric power that can be reliably transferred through a specific transmission path or flowgate at any given time. In practice, this rating is determined by system operators based on real-time assessments of system conditions, such as equipment limits, maintenance schedules, and current power flows. By establishing clear limits on transmission capacity, the clause helps prevent system overloads and ensures the safe and reliable operation of the electrical grid.
Available Flowgate Rating. Definition: The Available Flowgate Rating is the maximum amount of power that can flow across that interface without overloading (either on an actual or contingency basis) any element of the flowgate. The flowgate rating is in units of megawatts. If the flowgate is voltage or stability limited, a megawatt proxy is determined to ensure adequate voltages and stability conditions.
