Project 2008-11
Interpretation ― VAR-002-1 ―
Voltage and Reactive ―
Generator
Operations for Maintaining Network Voltage Schedules
Status:
The interpretation has been approved by the NERC Board of
Trustees and filed with FERC. The request
by ICF Consulting asks:
-
Which requirements in VAR-002 apply to Generator Operators that
operate generators that do not have automatic voltage regulation
(AVR) capability?
-
Does the standard require a Generator Owner to acquire AVR devices
to comply with the requirements in this standard?
Interpretation Process:
In
accordance with the Reliability Standards
Development Procedure, the interpretation must be posted for a 30-day
pre-ballot review, and then balloted.
There is no public comment period for an interpretation.
Balloting will be conducted following the same method used for
balloting standards.
If the interpretation is approved by its ballot pool, then the
interpretation will be appended to the standard and will become
effective when adopted by the NERC Board of Trustees and approved by the
applicable regulatory authorities. The interpretation will remain
appended to the standard until the standard is revised through the
normal standards development process.
When the standard is revised, the clarifications provided by the
interpretation will be incorporated into the revised standard.
