Background Information:
Posted for comments is the first posting of the Frequency Response SAR.
The Frequency Task
Force of the NERC Resources Subcommittee has identified the transient frequency response
characteristics as degrading over time and potentially threatening the reliability of the bulk electric
system.
This Standard Authorization Request was initiated to address this concern by developing a
standard to specify a measuring convention for frequency response and by specifying a minimum
required response to system disturbances based on the convention.
The requestor would like to receive industry comments on this SAR and to obtain the input of the
industry prior to determining the final scope and requirements of the SAR.
Accordingly, we
request your comments included on this form, emailed with the subject “Frequency Response SAR
Comments” by February 17, 2005.

Question 1: Do you agree there is a reliability need for a specifying the quality and quantity
of frequency response?
Yes
No
If no, please explain in the space provided below.
Comments
We agree in general that there is a reliability need to have frequency response, in order to maintain
interconnection frequency and particularly during disturbances, islanding and restoration.
The
standard need to address both the system needs as well as island requirements for frequency
response.
The standard should provide the process for a technically sound calculation of frequency response
and bias.
The standard should acknowledge that some units might not provide response under normal
operations (e.g. nuclear units operating at full load) and that load response is highly variable event
based on time of day or year.
The standard should acknowledge smaller areas need greater response.
Where BA areas are deficient in meeting the interconnection requirement , they should be allowed
a reasonable period of time to take appropriate steps to make corrections before being assessed as
non compliant.
The standard should also track area response over time (years) and be reevaluated as performance
changes.
Quality should be defined. For generators it should include dead-band, droop characteristics, etc.

Question 2: Do you agree with the scope and applicability of the proposed standard?
Yes
No
If no, please explain in the space provided below.
While we agree that the standard should not preclude market solutions (e.g. allow purchasing of
response as long as deliverability and restoration criteria can be met), we have concerns with the
statement
There must be a means for sale/purchase of frequency response as for any other
quantity.
The scope should exclude any reference to a means for sale/purchase of frequency
response as it should only address reliability requirements.
It is not clear what is meant by
A method of allocation must be developed.
Is this an allocation of
Interconnection response to BAs, BA allocation to generators or something different?
The requirements should recognize the capabilities and limitations of generators (e.g. nuclear units
operating at full load).

Question 3: Do you believe these standards are more appropriately additions to existing
standards as opposed to creating new standards?
Yes
No
If yes, please identify the location you believe would be the most appropriate for the proposed
standard
.
Comments
If
the existing Frequency Response and Bias Standard Version 0 (Bal-003-0) can not be clarified
and brought in line with this proposed standard, it should be
standalone .

Question 4: Do you have any additional comments regarding the SAR that you believe should
be addressed?
Yes
No
If yes, please share those comments in the space provided below.
We appreciate the opportunity to comment and believe there is a need for such a standard.
It needs to be recognized that there are two objectives for governor response, namely, to provide
response
on an interconnection wide basis to maintain an acceptable frequency and secondly to
control frequency in island situations. The former may allow for averaging over an area of the
response requirement but the latter may limit the extent of averaging.
Published studies show frequency response is declining when it should be increasing with load.
The main concerns with this decreasing performance are:
There may be areas unable to withstand severe disturbances.
Following a grid separation or collapse, control areas may be unable to fulfill their blackstart
and restoration responsibilities, thereby becoming a burden to neighbors.
Because engineering models use theoretical frequency response, they are likely over optimistic
and may misstate grid stability limits.
This standard would allow the industry to determine whether the decline is local or global.
Rather than implementing a complicated infrastructure or process, we would suggest that NERC
automate the calculation of frequency response by either:
Asking BAs to save their CPS-source data in a common format so a common tool can be
used (MAPP BAs and some others use a common tool that can calculate frequency
response with CPS-source data).
Embed the calculation in the NERC ACE-monitoring application.
The standard should employ a methodology that not only captures initial response (first few
seconds after the event) but also the sustained response until AGC action takes over

Providing visibility on where and when performance is substandard will likely initiate sufficient
action to arrest the decline in performance.
Minimum performance standards could be
implemented after the industry has identified what is reasonably achievable and technically
justified.
