1 TOP-001 v3 and v4 Monitoring Non-BES and Data Exchange Requirements FRCC Spring RE Workshop April 17-18, 2018

2 Objectives Background Reference Documents TOP to TOP Changes o R10 (TOP) Monitoring Non-BES facilities o Rationale for Monitoring Non-BES facilities o Redundancy and diverse routing of data exchange infrastructure o Rationale for redundancy and diverse routing of data exchange infrastructure Audit Approach Summary/Highlights 2

3 Background TOP Approved by Letter Order on 4/17/17 Replaces currently effective standard TOP Effective Date is 7/1/18 Revised to address reliability concerns identified by FERC Order 817 o Monitoring of non-bulk electric system (BES) facilities o Redundancy and diverse routing of data exchange infrastructure o Test its primary Control Center data exchange infrastructure for redundant functionality at least once every 90 calendar days o Minor changes to update terminology from SPS to RAS 3

4 Reference Documents TOP R10, R11, R20 to R24 and Measures TOP R1 and Measure Rationale for Requirements R19 to R24 (Pages 26, 27) FERC Order No. 817 Para FERC Order No. 817 Para 47 and Para 51 FERC Order No. 817 * Regions are working on consensus and alignment to monitoring approach to TOP R20 to R24 4

5 TOP to TOP Changes R10 (TOP) R20 (TOP) R23 (BA) Monitoring non-bes facilities Redundant & diversely routed R10 (TOP) R11 (BA) Update terminology from SPS to RAS (Minor) Testing every 90 calendar days R21 (TOP) R24 (BA) 5

6 R10 (TOP) Monitoring Non-BES facilities R10. Each Transmission Operator shall perform the following for determining System Operating Limit (SOL) exceedances within its Transmission Operator Area: o R10.3. Monitor non-bes facilities within its Transmission Operator Area identified as necessary by the Transmission Operator o R10.6. Obtain and utilize status, voltages, and flow data for non-bes facilities outside its Transmission Operator Area identified as necessary by the Transmission Operator 6

7 Rationale for Monitoring Non-BES facilities The intent of the requirement is to ensure that all facilities (i.e., BES and non-bes) that can adversely impact reliability of the BES are monitored The non-bes facilities that the TOP is required to monitor are only those that are necessary for the TOP to determine SOL exceedances, within it s Transmission Operator Area Examples of analyses and studies to identification of non-bes facilities o OPA o Real-Time Assessments (RTA) o RC's outage coordination process that leads the TOP to identify a non-bes facility that should be temporarily monitored for determining SOL exceedances TOP Requirement R1 specifies that the TOP shall develop a data specification which includes data and information needed by the TOP to support it s Real-time monitoring and RTAs o This includes non-bes data and external network data as deemed necessary by the TOP 7

8 Audit Approach (R10) Monitoring Non-BES facilities How did the TOP determine the non-bes facilities and data identified for determining SOL exceedances? o Operational Planning Analysis (OPA) o Real-time Assessments (RTA) o RC's outage coordination process that leads the TOP to identify a non-bes facility that should be temporarily monitored for determining SOL exceedances List of the non BES facilities as necessary for determining SOL exceedances Evidence to demonstrate the TOP is monitoring non-bes facilities within its Transmission Operator Area identified as necessary by the Transmission Operator Evidence to demonstrate the TOP is obtaining data for identified non-bes facilities outside its Transmission Operator Area identified as necessary by the Transmission Operator 8

9 Redundancy and diverse routing of data exchange infrastructure Each TOP (R20) and each BA (R23) shall have data exchange capabilities, with redundant and diversely routed data exchange infrastructure within the TOP s or BA s primary Control Center, for the exchange of Real-time data with external entities RC, BA s TOP s it has identified it needs data from: o Real-time monitoring o Real-time Assessments 9

10 Rationale for redundancy and diverse routing of data exchange infrastructure Concept of Redundancy o Duplicate devices that are used for backup purpose o Redundancy protects against the internal failure of any single component Concept of Diversely Routed o The practice of routing circuits along different physical paths o The physical separation of components and the circuits between them protects against external damage causing failure of both redundant systems o Physical damage of any component or circuit should not disable both primary and backup systems 10

11 Rationale for redundancy and diverse routing of data exchange infrastructure Components in the primary Control Center used for the exchange of system operating data o Switches o Routers o Servers o Power supplies o Network cabling o Communication paths between these components Limits of Requirements o Requirements apply within the primary Control Center o Backup Control Centers are not addressed by these requirement o Since Control Centers include associated Data Centers, redundancy and diversity must be satisfied within each, with the objective of preventing any single point of failure 11

12 Audit Approach to redundancy and diverse routing of data exchange infrastructure Who are the entities the TOP has identified it needs data from in order to perform Real-time monitoring and RTA? Provide evidence the data exchange infrastructure are redundant and diversely routed within the primary Control Center o R20 and R23 are infrastructure requirements o Diagrams and descriptions of the components required for data exchange infrastructure o Diagrams and descriptions of the locations of the components and power supplies o Physical tour of the facilities 12

13 Summary/Highlights TOP Effective Date is 7/1/2018 TOP to TOP Changes o R10 (TOP) Monitoring Non-BES facilities o R20 and R23 Redundancy and diverse routing of data exchange infrastructure o Audit Approach* * Regions are working on consensus and alignment to monitoring approach to TOP R20 to R24 13
