Common use of Telephone Communication Clause in Contracts

Telephone Communication. (a) Test to confirm Company has a direct line to the Facility control room at all times and that it is programmed correctly. (b) Test to confirm that the Facility operators can sufficiently reach Company System Operator. 1. SCADA Test to verify the status and analog telemetry, and if the remote controls between the Company's EMS and the Facility are working properly end-to-end. 2. Dispatch Test to verify if the Facility's active power limit controls and the Active Power Control Interface with the Company's EMS are working properly. The Test is generally conducted by setting different active power setpoints and limits and observing the proper dispatch of the appropriate ramp rate of the Facility's real power output. 3. Control Test for Voltage Regulation to verify the Facility can properly perform automatic voltage regulation as defined in this Agreement. Test is generally conducted by making small adjustments of the voltage setpoint and verifying by observation that the Facility regulates the voltage at the point of regulation to the setpoint by delivering/receiving reactive power to/from the Company System to maintain the applicable setpoint according to the reactive power control and the reactive amount requirements of Sections 3(a) (Reactive Power Control) and Section 3(b) (Reactive Amount) of Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller) to this Agreement. [DRAFTING NOTE: NEEDS TO BE REVISED FOR MECO FOR TESTING POWER FACTOR.] 4. Frequency Regulation Control Test to verify the Facility provides a frequency droop response as defined in this Agreement. Test is generally conducted by making adjustments of the frequency reference setting and verifying by observation that the Facility responds per droop and deadband settings. 5. Loss-of-Communication Test to verify the Facility will properly shutdown upon the failure of the direct-transfer-trip communication system. Test is generally conducted by simulating a communications failure and observing the proper shutdown of the Facility.

Telephone Communication. (a) Test to confirm Company has a direct line to the Facility control room at all times and that it is programmed correctly. (b) Test to confirm that the Facility operators can sufficiently reach Company System Operator.. If agreed by the Parties in writing, some requirements may be postponed to the Control Systems Acceptance Test. ATTACHMENT O CONTROL SYSTEM ACCEPTANCE TEST CRITERIA Final test criteria and procedures shall be agreed upon by Company and Seller no later than thirty (30) Days prior to conducting the Control System Acceptance Test ("CSAT") in accordance with Good Engineering and Operating Practices and with the terms of this Agreement. The Control System RTU Points List is necessary for the effective operation of the Company System and will be tested during the Control System Acceptance Test. The Control System Acceptance Test is comprised of two parts, a set of onsite (at Facility) specific tests and a monitoring performance test. These tests may include the following: On-site Tests: 1. SCADA Test to verify the status and analog telemetry, and if the remote controls between the Company's EMS and the Facility are working properly end-to-end. 2. Dispatch Test to verify if the Facility's active power limit controls and the Active Power Control Interface with the Company's EMS are working properly.

Test is generally conducted by making adjustments of the frequency reference setting and verifying by observation that the Facility responds per droop and deadband settings. 5. Loss-of-Communication Test to verify the Facility will properly shutdown upon the failure of the direct-transfer-trip communication system. Test is generally conducted by simulating a communications failure and observing the proper shutdown of the Facility. 6. Round Trip Efficiency Test to verify that the round trip efficiency of the XXXX is not less than [_______] percent ([____]%). [DRAFTING NOTE: The round trip efficiency percentage will be taken from Seller's response to the RFP.]

Fast Frequency Response Control Test to verify the Facility provides the fast frequency response required in this Agreement. Test is generally conducted by simulating rate of change of frequency and/or frequency inputs and verifying by observation that the Facility responds per design and settings. [DRAFTING NOTE: This test only applies if Facility provides fast frequency response.] 6. Loss-of-Communication Test to verify the Facility will properly shutdown upon the failure of the direct-transfer-trip communication system. Test is generally conducted by simulating a communications failure and observing the proper shutdown of the Facility. 7. Round Trip Efficiency Test to verify that the round trip efficiency of the XXXX is not less than [_______] percent ([____]%).
