What are “Conventional Generating Units?”
• The ten types of conventional generating units: Fossil steam including fluidized bed design; Nuclear; Gas turbines/jet engines (simple cycle and others modes); Internal combustion engines (diesel engines); Hydro units/pumped storage; Combined cycle blocks and their related components (gas turbines and steam
turbines); Cogeneration blocks and their related components (gas turbines and steam
turbines); Multi‐boiler/multi‐turbine units; Geothermal units; and Other miscellaneous conventional generating units (such as variable fuel –
biomass, landfill gases, etc) used to generate electric power for the grid and similar in design and operation as the units shown above and as defined by the GADS Data Reporting Instructions.
![Page 16: GADS_101_Data_Reporting_Workshop_October_2017 … cycle blocks and their related components (gas turbines and steam turbines](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020412/5ac81c497f8b9aa1298be39a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16 RELIABILITY | ACCOUNTABILITY
Recommendations – In-house Audits
• In‐house review of GADS data by the reporting generating company has always been strongly encouraged.
• Each reporting generating company shall continue to be responsible for collecting, monitoring, updating and correcting their own GADS design, event, and performance data.
![Page 17: GADS_101_Data_Reporting_Workshop_October_2017 … cycle blocks and their related components (gas turbines and steam turbines](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020412/5ac81c497f8b9aa1298be39a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17 RELIABILITY | ACCOUNTABILITY
Recommendations –Ownership/Retirement
• NERC shall track ownership changes as generating units are sold to other operating companies. These changes will include the name of the new owners and the date of generating unit transfer.(Please note that GADS has been collecting ownership transfers for 10 years with no burden on reporters.)
• Proposed or projected generating units retirement dates shall not be collected in GADS

Why Collect Design Data?
• For use in identifying the type of unit (fossil, nuclear, gas turbine, etc).
• Allows selection of design characteristics necessary for analyzing event and performance data.
• Provides the opportunity to critique past and present fuels, improvements in design, manufacturers, etc.
• Design data is essential for many generating plant analyses. Generating companies will be asked to review and update their design data annually or as recommended by NERC staff using the design time‐stamping process, but the updating will be voluntary.

Recommendations - Design
• The nine design data fields were chosen for two specific reasons: Allowing GADS data to be matched with information collected in the Transmission Availability Data System (TADS). One goal of NERC is to allow the GADS and TADS databases to interact with each other. Certain data fields are needed to allow generating units to be located in areas where transmission lines are located. Specific fields allow that interaction.
Editing the event and performance data to insure the continued quality of information collected by GADS.

Why Collect Event Records?
• Track problems at your plant for your use.• Track problems at your plant for others use.• Provide proof of unit outages (ISO, PUC, consumers groups, etc).
• Provide histories of equipment for “lessons learned.”• Provide planning with data for determining length and depth of next/future outages.

Event Identification
• Utility (Company) Code – a three character alpha‐numeric code that identifies the reporting organization. Assigned by OATI for NERC (required)
• Unit Code – a three‐digit code that identifies the unit being reported. This code also distinguishes one unit from another in your utility (required)
• The combination of the utility and unit codes uniquely identifies your units!

Report Year-to-date!
• Report all data year‐to‐date with the revision code zero “0” again. If any other changes were made, the reporters and NERC databases would always be the same.
It is easier and better to replace the entire database then to append one quarter to the next.

Unit States – Inactive (cont.)
• Inactive Deactivated shutdown (IEEE 762) as “the State in which a unit is unavailable for service for an extended period of time for reasons not related to the equipment.”
IEEE and GADS interprets this as Inactive Reserve, Mothballed, or Retired
![Page 42: GADS_101_Data_Reporting_Workshop_October_2017 … cycle blocks and their related components (gas turbines and steam turbines](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020412/5ac81c497f8b9aa1298be39a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
42 RELIABILITY | ACCOUNTABILITY
Unit States – Inactive (cont.)
• Inactive Reserve (IR) The State in which a unit is unavailable for service but can be brought back into service after some repairs in a relatively short duration of time, typically measured in days.
This does not include units that may be idle because of a failure and dispatch did not call for operation.
The unit must be on RS a minimum of 60 days before it can move to IR status.
Use Cause Code “0002” (three zeros plus 2) for these events.
Reliability compliance reports are still enforced!!

43 RELIABILITY | ACCOUNTABILITY
Unit States – Inactive (cont.)
• Mothballed (MB) The State in which a unit is unavailable for service but can be brought back into service after some repairs with appropriate amount of notification, typically weeks or months.
A unit that is not operable or is not capable of operation at a moments notice must be on a forced, maintenance or planned outage and remain on that outage for at least 60 days before it is moved to the MB state.
Use Cause Code “9991” for these events. Additional descriptions on MB are being considered by the GADSWG.

44 RELIABILITY | ACCOUNTABILITY
Unit States – Inactive (cont.)
• Retired (RU) The State in which a unit is unavailable for service and is not expected to return to service in the future.
RU should be the last event for the remainder of the year (up through December 31 at 2400). The unit must not be reported to GADS in any future submittals.
Use Cause Code “9990” for these events.

Note Regarding NERC Compliance
• When a unit goes into IR or MB, that unit will not be considered in fleet unit reporting statistics like EAF, EFORd, etc.
• HOWEVER, the unit‐level compliance MAY still be open for NERC auditing under the NERC Reliability Standards [Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP); Emergency Preparedness and Operations (EOP); Protection and Control (PRC); etc.].
• WECC requires you continue to comply with the standards. Check with your Region for rules.

• What is an outage? An outage starts when the unit is either desynchronized (breakers open) from the grid or when it moves from one unit state to another
An outage ends when the unit is synchronized (breakers are closed) to the grid or moves to another unit state.
In moving from one outage to the next, the time (month, day, hour, minute) must be exactly the same!

• PO – Planned Outage
An outage that is scheduled well in advance and is of a predetermined duration, can last for several weeks, and occurs only once or twice a year. Turbine and boiler overhauls or inspections, testing, and nuclear refueling are typical planned outages. For a planned outage, all of the specific individual maintenance and operational tasks to be performed are determined in advance and are referred to as the "original scope of work." The general task of repairing turbines, boilers, pumps, etc. is not considered a work scope because it does not define the individual tasks to be performed. For example, if a general task such as repair boiler is considered the work scope, it is impossible to conclude that any boiler work falls outside of the original scope of work. Discovery work and re‐work which render the unit out of service beyond the estimated PO end date are not considered part of the original scope of work. A planned extension may be used only in instances where the original scope of work requires more time to complete than the estimated time. For example, if an inspection that is in the original scope of work for the planned outage takes longer than scheduled, the extra time should be coded as an extension (PE). However, if damage found during the inspection results in an extension of the outage, the extra time required to make repairs should be coded as a forced outage.
• MO –Maintenance Outage
An outage that can be deferred beyond the end of the next weekend (defined as Sunday at 2400 hours or as Sunday turns into Monday), but requires that the unit be removed from service, another outage state, or Reserve Shutdown state before the next Planned Outage (PO). Characteristically, a MO can occur any time during the year, has a flexible start date, may or may not have a predetermined duration, and is usually much shorter than a PO. Discovery work and re‐work which render the unit out of service beyond the estimated MO end date are not considered part of the original scope of work. A maintenance extension may be used only in instances where the original scope of work requires more time to complete than the estimated time. For example, if an inspection that is in the original scope of work for the outage takes longer than scheduled, the extra time should be coded as an extension (ME). If the damage found during the inspection is of a nature that the unit could be put back on‐line and be operational past the end of the upcoming weekend, the work could be considered MO or ME. If the inspection reveals damage that prevents the unit from operating past the upcoming weekend, the extended work time should be Forced Outage (U1, U2, or U3).
Note: If an outage occurs before Friday at 2400 hours (or before Friday turns into Saturday), the above definition applies. But if the outage occurs after Friday at 2400 hours and before Sunday at 2400 hours (the 48 hours of Saturday and Sunday), the MO will only apply if the outage can be delayed past the next, not current, weekend. If the outage cannot be deferred, the outage shall be a forced event.

• PE and ME Rules and Regulations
The “predetermined duration” of an outage also determines the “estimated completion date” of the PO or MO. If the unit is scheduled for four weeks of repairs, then the unit is expected back in service at a certain date four weeks after the start of the outage. In cases where the outage is moved up or back according to the needs of the operating company, ISO, or power pool, then the start of the outage plus duration of the outage determines the new completion date. As long as the outage is no longer than planned, the expected completion date is moved to coincide with the predetermined duration period.
If the unit is on outage (for example, U1 outage due to a boiler tube leak) at the time the unit is scheduled to start the PO or MO work, then the work on the cause of the outage (tube repairs) must be completed before changing from the U1 outage to the PO or MO outage. PO and MO work can start but is not counted as PO or MO work until the U1 repairs are complete.
All work during PO and MO events is determined in advance and is referred to as the “original scope of work.” Use ME and PE only in instances where the original scope of work requires more time to complete than originally scheduled. Where applicable, the extension of the planned or maintenance outage may be required to be approved in advance by your power pool or ISO. Advance warning of an extension is very important. However, GADS is not a dispatch‐orientated database but rather an equipment‐orientated one. The reporting of the PE and ME is based on IEEE 762‐GADS rules, not ISO requirements. Therefore, if the extension meets the GADS rules, then report it as an ME or PE and not a U1 when reporting to GADS only.
Do not use ME and PE in instances where unexpected problems or conditions are discovered during the outage which render the unitout of service beyond the estimated end date of the PO or MO. Report these delays as Unplanned (Forced) Outage‐Immediate (U1). Do not use ME and PE if unexpected problems occur during unit startup. If a unit completes a PO or MO before the original estimatedcompletion date and volunteers to return to service (i.e., the unit is released to dispatch), then any problems causing outages or deratings after that date are not considered to be part of the PO or MO.

4.0 % are U2 outages (1,706 events)
2.1 % is U3 outages (894 events)
• With U1, you need an cause code amp code!

A Word of Experience …
• IEEE definitions are designed to be guidelines and are interpreted by GADS.
• We ask all reporters to follow the guidelines so that uniformity is reporting and resulting statistics.
• If a unit outage is determined to be a MO, it is an MO by IEEE Guidelines.

Black Start Testing
• A black start test is a verification that a CT unit can start without any auxiliary power from the grid and can close the generator breaker onto a dead line or grid.
• To set up the test, you isolate the station from the grid, de‐energize a line, and then give the command for the CT to start. If the start is successful, then you close the breaker onto the dead line. Once completed, you take the unit off, and re‐establish the line and aux power to the station.
• You coordinate this test with the transmission line operator, and it is conducted annually.

Unit States (Deratings)
• What is a derate? A derate exists when a unit cannot generate at 100% capacity
A derate starts when the unit is not capable of reaching 100% capacity.
A derate ends when the equipment is either ready for orput back in service.
Capacity is based on the capability of the unit, not on dispatch requirements.
More than one derate can occur at a time.

Simple Derating
Event Description:
On January 10 at 8:00 a.m., Riverglenn #1 reduced capacity by 250 MW due to a fouled north air preheater, leaving a Net Available Capacity (NAC) of 450 MW.
Fouling began two days earlier, but the unit stayed on line at full capacity to meet load demand.
Repair crews completed their work and the unit came back to full load [700 MW Net Maximum Capacity (NMC)] on January 11 at 4:00 p.m. The Net Dependable Capacity (NDC) of the unit is also 700 MW.

Overlapping Derating -2nd is Shadowed by the 1st
Event Description:
Riverglenn #1 had a D4 event on July 3 at 2:30 p.m. from a condenser maintenance item that reduced the NAC to 590 MW. Fouled condenser tubes (tube side) were the culprit.
Maintenance work began on July 5 at 8 a.m. and the event ended on July 23 at 11:45 a.m.
On July 19 at 11:45 a.m., a feedwater pump tripped, reducing the NAC and load to 400 MW. This minor repair to the feedwater pump was completed at noon that same day.

Dependable Capacities
• GDC is the gross power level that the unit can sustain during a given period if there are no equipment, operating, or regulatory restrictions.
• By definition, therefore, the GDC is the GMC modified for ambient limitations.
• “Ambient limits” refer to outside, weather‐related losses, to the unit and not related to equipment. For example, your ID Fans are designed to pull air with a maximum temperature of 100⁰ F and it is 110⁰ F.
GMC – (Ambient Losses) = GDC

Dependable Capacities
• NDC is the net power level that the unit can sustain during a given period if there are no equipment, operating, or regulatory restrictions.
• By definition, therefore, the NDC is the NMC modified for ambient limitations.
• “Ambient limits” refer to outside, weather‐related losses, to the unit and not related to equipment. For example, your ID Fans are designed to pull air with a maximum temperature of 100⁰ F and it is 110⁰ F.
NMC – (Ambient Losses) = NDC

Net Actual Generation (NAG)
• The actual number of net electrical mega‐watt‐hours (MWh) generated by the unit during the month.
• If you report both Service Hours and Net Actual Generation (one to 99999.99), then NMC or NDC must also be reported.
• If both service hours and a net capacity value are reported, Net Actual Generation must also be reported.
• Negative NAG can be reported and will be accepted.

Missing Capacity Calculation!
• If any capacity (capacities) is (are) not reported, the missing capacities will be calculated based on all reported numbers.
• For example, if only the NDC is reported and the NDC = 50, then: NDC = NMC = 50 GMC = NMC times (1 + factor) GDC = NDC times (1 + factor) GAG = NAG times (1 + factor)

211 RELIABILITY | ACCOUNTABILITY
Missing Capacity Calculation!
• If you only report either the gross or the net capacities, then the GADS editing program or WebE-GADS will calculate any missing GMC, GDC, NMC, or NDC as follows:
Unit Type Difference
Fossil, Nuclear, and Fluidized Bed: 5.0% difference between gross and net values
Gas Turbine/Jet Engine: 2.0% difference between gross and net values
Diesel: No difference between gross and net values
Hydro/Pumped Storage: 2.0% difference between gross and net values
Miscellaneous: 4.0% difference between gross and net values
Note: these percentages may change in the future!
