You are encouraged to perform your own independent evaluation and analysis. Service center names, circuits, sections, and fuse IDs have been changed to protect sensitive information.

2 Source of Data Outage Report Event ID Date & Time Number of customers
Duration of outage Type of issue Repairs made

3 Outage Management System
Source of Data Outage Report Event ID Number of customers Duration of outage Type of issue Repairs made Date & Time Outage Management System OMS

4 Data Retrieval Process
Outage Management System Geographic Information Service Used to ensure events occurred on the appropriate circuit. GIS OMS Database Mainframe/Server Report Generator Software Published Report Filtered Report

5 Circuit Section Performance Report
Provides performance measures for each circuit section. SAIDI Value (with respect to the circuit) Total customer outage minutes Outage minutes for each rollup cause

6 Circuit Section Performance Report
Circuit Information Circuit Performance Rollup Causes

7 Crews can choose from 81 outage causes.
Rollup Causes Crews can choose from 81 outage causes. Circuit Section Performance Report condenses it to 12 rollup causes. Weather Hurricane Ice Lightning Rising water Strong wind Tornado Trees/Wind Falling dead tree Falling tree in easement Falling tree out easement Tree Tree clearance Vines

8 Fuse Performance Report
Provides performance measures for all fuses. Total customer outage minutes Outage minutes for each rollup cause Supplements our Hot Fuse system.

9 Fuse Performance Report
Used to identify fuses that continually have interruptions so corrective action can be taken. A problematic fuse may not be caught if it does not meet our criteria. For Example our “Three in Ninety” rule Supplements our Hot Fuse Program.

Not identified in hot fuse program. Several events related to lightning and unknown causes. Rural location. Solution: inspect and repair any damaged equipment. Replace fuse with electronic cutout sectionalizer.
