Common use of IDC PSS/E Base Case Clause in Contracts

IDC PSS/E Base Case. (no transmission outages – offline study) For those situations where one or more CAs are being, or have been incorporated into an Operating Entity’s footprint after the freeze date, there will be a generator analysis performed to determine which Flowgates impacted by those CAs will be included in the list of Coordinated Flowgates. In order to confirm the IDC analysis, and to provide a better confidence that the Operating Entity has effectively captured the subset of Flowgates upon which its generators have a significant impact, an offline study utilizing MUST capabilities will be conducted. The Operating Entity will perform off-line studies (using the IDC PSS/E base case) to confirm the IDC analysis. Study 1 and Study 2 are separate studies. There is no requirement that a Flowgate must pass both studies in order to be coordinated.
