INTERCONNECTION PROTECTION Sample Clauses
The Interconnection Protection clause establishes requirements and safeguards to ensure that any physical or electronic connections between different systems, networks, or facilities do not compromise the security, integrity, or performance of either party’s infrastructure. Typically, this clause outlines technical standards, monitoring protocols, and responsibilities for maintaining secure interfaces, such as firewalls or demilitarized zones, and may require regular testing or notification of changes. Its core practical function is to mitigate risks associated with interconnected systems, preventing unauthorized access, data breaches, or disruptions that could arise from vulnerabilities at the point of interconnection.
INTERCONNECTION PROTECTION. D3 .1 Developer shall coordinate its protection scheme and protective relay settings with Utility, and the protective relay settings shall be subject to Utility approval. The protection system shall include the following items, all to be provided by Developer:
D3.1.1 Pilot wire differential relay, GEC AIsthom type MBCI or approved equal, operating over pilot wires. Pilot wire supervisory shall provide tripping of the 69 kV breakers from the Developer's switchyard relaying;
D3.1.2 Three phase and ground over-current relay, GEC AIsthom type KCGG 140 or approved equal;
D3.1.3 400:5 ampere current transformers for metering and multi-ratio current transformers for relaying shall be installed in the high voltage bushings of the 69kV transformer.
D3.1.4 DC Intertrip receive relays (2), operating over cable circuits and responding to trip signals from the switchyard relaying.
D3.1.5 Over/under voltage relay; and D3.
INTERCONNECTION PROTECTION. 3.1 The Company shall coordinate its protection scheme and protective relay settings with JPS, and the protective relay settings shall be subject to JPS’ approval. The protection system shall include the following items, all to be provided by the Company:
3.1.1 A. Preferably, Current differential relay, SEL-311L or approved equal, at all three line terminals operating over fiber-optic communications channel for high-speed clearance of transmission line faults;
INTERCONNECTION PROTECTION. 4.1. The Company shall coordinate its protection scheme and protective relay settings with JPS, and the protective relay settings shall be subject to JPS approval.
4.2. All protective relays shall (a) have communication compatible with existing JPS teleprotection and SCADA communication system requirements; (b) be time synchronized using IRIG-B ports; and (c) have necessary time-synchronization accurate to 10ms.
