 Definition of Qualified Changes, please consider the addition of the following bolded section in the definition.

  • Existing interconnections of transmission facilities or electricity end-user facilities seeking to make a qualified change on the transmission system needs to report the qualified change to the project database. The qualified change is defined as: i) transmission system topology change; ii) protection configuration change that could negatively impact contingency performance, short circuit, or dynamic performance; iii) change the electrical characteristics of a circuit (i.e., change of impedance, current transformers, thermal rating (lower capability from replacement of components, change in underbuilds, line crossings, etc.)) that could negatively impact contingency performance, short circuit, or dynamic performance.
