Rule 2 (114V-126V)
Voltage fluctuations < 3%
Safety
Operational flexibility, SCE is
planning to test typical switching
configuration, to be further
discussed with WG
No reverse power flow on switchable devices
Note: Furthermore, SCE believes the streamlined method needs to be modified to include a steady state voltage criteria and interaction between devices.

Demo A Tools
• CYMDist 7.2
– Distribution Modeling
– Power Flow Analysis (iterative
method)
• SCE Load Forecasting Tools /
LoadSEER
– Generate load profiles
• Python 3.4
– ICA automation and data analysis
• SAS Enterprise 9.4
– AMI data retrieval
– Statistical analysis
– Data validation
• Oracle 11g
– ICA results repository
– Post simulation analysis
• ESRI ArcDesktop (used for
DERiM)
– Visualization
• Microsoft Office (Excel and
Access)
– Data process (streamline method)
• Load profiles on distribution systems are determined by the aggregate load profiles of individual customers
• The aggregation of customer loading history from billing or advanced metering infrastructure enables profile creation from a nodal level
• Feeder level load profiles may be generated from historical data obtained via supervisory control and data acquisition systems (SCADA)
