Section 3: Definitions and Equations
Definitions
Forced Outage: An outage that cannot be postponed beyond the end of the next weekend.
Maintenance Outage: An outage that can be postponed beyond the end of the next weekend,
but requires the unit be removed before the next planned outage.
Planned Outage: An outage of predetermined length that is scheduled well in advance of its
occurrence. The outage must be included in a regularly issued maintenance schedule at least
one month prior to the starting date of the outage; i.e., the outage must appear in two
consecutive issues of the PJM Unit Maintenance Schedule prior to starting the outage.
Non-curtailing Outage: The removal from service of spare or redundant equipment (i.e.,
major components or entire systems) for repairs which causes no unit outage or capacityreduction.
Postponability Code 9 Outage: A routine, periodic outage (e.g., deslagging, condenser
cleaning, etc.) which both starts and ends during a single valley load period (i.e., the time
period from 22:00:01 to 08:00:00, inclusive).
Period Hours: The total clock time in the period of concern.
Service Hours: The time a unit is electrically connected to the system.
Reserve Shutdown Hours: The time a unit is available for service but not dispatched due to
economics or other reasons.
Available Hours: The time a unit is capable of producing energy, regardless of its capacity
level.
Demand Hours: The time interval each day on a particular system in which there is a heavy
demand for electricity. For PJM, it is the time period beginning 8:00:01 and ending 22:00:00,
inclusive.

Equivalent Outage Hours: The number of hours a unit was involved in an outage, expressed as
equivalent hours of full outage at its maximum net dependable capacity. Equivalent hours can be
calculated for forced, maintenance, or planned outages. Overlapping partial outage hours are not
permitted in PJM outage rate calculations and overlaps are eliminated according to an outage type
hierarchy. (Refer to Equation 1, page 3-4.)
Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate: The portion of time a unit is in demand, but is
unavailable due to a forced outage. (Refer to Equation 2, page 3-4.)
Equivalent Forced Outage Factor: The portion of time a unit is unavailable due to forced outages.
(Refer to Equation 3, page 3-4.)
EPOEF: The ratio of EPOF (with SEs included) to EPOF (with SEs excluded).
Equivalent Maintenance Outage Factor: The portion of time a unit is unavailable due to
maintenance outages. (Refer to Equation 4, page 3-5.)
Equivalent Planned Outage Factor: The portion of time a unit is unavailable due to planned
outages. (Refer to Equation 5, page 3-5.)
Operating Availability Factor: The portion of time a unit is available to operate.
Equivalent Availability Factor: The portion of time a unit is available to operate, recognizing
equivalent partial outage time. (Refer to Equation 7, page 3-5.)
Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate: The forced outage rate used for reliability and
reserve margin calculations. (Refer to Equation 8, page 3-5.)
Equivalent Scheduled Outage Factor: The planned outage rate used for reliability and reserve
margin calculations. (Refer to Equation 9, page 3-6.)
Variance: A measure of the variability of a units partial forced outages which is used in reserve
margin calculations.
f-factor: Factors which have been adopted by PJM to scale the total number of forced outage hours
to reflect those which occur during demand hours. Separate factors exist to adjust full (ff) and partial
(fp) outage hours. (Refer to Equation 10, page 3-6.)
Planning Period: The continuous time period beginning 00:00:01 on June 1 of a given year andending 24:00:00 on May 31 of the following year.
Mature Unit: A unit having at least five full calendar years of operating experience for Planning
Study usage or at least five full calendar years of operating experience for reliability calculations.

document "Report on the Study of Load Models and Reliability Program Features," Section I -
GEBGE Options, pages 5-7 (Random Maintenance), issued March, 1972 by the PJM Capacity and
Transmission Planning Subcommittee. The original decision, presumably made by the PJM Planning

Section 4: Periodic Reports
Introduction
The Generator Unavailability Subcommittee is required to periodically compile and issueseveral reports for use by other groups within PJM. These reports provide outage rate
information needed to perform reliability, reserve requirement, allocation of forecast reserve
requirement and production studies for the Interconnection. The principal report is the
Planning Study Outage Data Report due to the Planning Committee February 1 of each year.
Planning Study Outage Data Report
Planning study outage data is primarily intended for use by the Load and Capacity
Subcommittee to determine the PJM capacity reserve requirements. This data is also used to
determine the Forced Outage Rate (F).
The report provides Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rates (EEFORd), capacity
variances and scheduled outage data for all existing and future units included in the latest
capacity schedule of each company. This information is based on the latest five full calendar
years of operating experience and excludes I.O. code 9 outages (i.e., routinely occurring
off-peak outages).
Future capacity additions, deletions and modifications are based on data as provided for
inclusion in the most recent EIA-411/860 report. Additional data available at the PJM Office of
the Interconnection on possible planned additions is also taken into account.
The outage data source for this report is the PJM eGADS database which includes the outagehistory for the calendar year just ended. One run must contain "Unit Summary Reports" of
operating experience for each of the last five years and cumulative for the last five years, the
"Probability of Unit Partial Outage State Report" and the "Unit Variance and Partial Outage
State Report." The second run must contain "Unit Summary Reports" of operating experience
for last five years with scheduled extensions of maintenance and planned outages removed.
The incumbent GUS chairman is responsible for compiling and issuing this report. Since the
data included in the report deals with individual units and their operating characteristics the
report is considered to be confidential and is only used at the PJM Office of the
Interconnection.

Data for Units with Five Full Calendar Years of Operating Experience
(1)Individual Unit Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate Calculation:
Included in the Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate (EEFORD) calculation is theEquivalent Demand Forced outage rate (EFORD). The annual unit EFORDwill be 100% for
any period of operation after 1992 during which minimum reporting requirements are not met.
Minimum reporting requirements are defined as either GADS event data or actual hourly net
generation for units less than 10 MW. Class Average Outage Rates for EFORDwill be used for
all years prior to the first full year of operation and for all non-reported years prior to 1992.
Companies that are unable to comply with the minimum reporting requirements after 1992 have
the option to appeal to the Planning Committee for an alternative to the 100% EFORDruling.
(a)Mature Unit: The effective equivalent demand forced outage rate (%) of a
mature unit is determined based on the latest five full calendar years of operatingexperience. It is calculated by adding 25% of the equivalent maintenance outage
factor (%) to the equivalent demand forced outage rate (with f-factor). The five-
year cumulative statistics are to be taken directly from the GORP output which
has scheduled extensions included, unless manual adjustments are necessary.
(b)Mothballed Unit: A mothballed unit is ignored until it is reactivated andincluded in the companys installed capacity.
(c)Combined Cycle Conversion of Existing CTs:Combined Cycle units createdby adding heat recovery boilers and steam turbines to existing combustion
turbines will use Class Average Outage Rates until the combined cycle unit hasmature operating history unless granted an exception.
(2)Capacity Variance Calculation:
(a)Mature Unit:The capacity variance (MW2) of a mature unit is calculated usingthe procedure given in Section V, Item E: Capacity Variance Calculation
Procedure for Existing Units. This information is to be taken directly from the
appropriate GORP output and used, unless manual adjustments are required.
(b)Mothballed Unit: A mothballed unit is ignored until it is reactivated and
included in the companys installed capacity.
(c)Combined Cycle Conversion of Existing CTs:Combined Cycle units createdby adding heat recovery boilers and steam turbines to existing combustion
turbines will use the following variance formula until the combined cycle unit has
mature operating history unless granted an exception.

(3)Scheduled Outage Data Calculation:
(a)Mature Unit:The scheduled outage data of a mature unit is calculated based onthe latest five full calendar years of operating experience and the "Ten Year Unit
Planned Maintenance Forecast". Ten years of scheduled outage weeks are

Data for Units with Less Than Five Full Calendar Years of OperatingExperience and Future Units
(1)Individual Unit Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate Calculation:
Included in the Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate (EEFORD) calculation is the
Equivalent Demand Forced outage rate (EFORD).
The annual unit EFORD will be 100% for any period of operation after 1992 during which
minimum reporting requirements are not met. Minimum reporting requirements are defined as
either GADS event data or actual hourly net generation for units less than 10 MW. Table III
values for EFORDwill be used for all years prior to the first full year of operation and for all
non-reported years prior to 1992.
Companies that are unable to comply with the minimum reporting requirements after 1992 havethe option to appeal to the Planning and Engineering Committee for an alternative to the 100%
EFORDruling.
(a)Immature Unit: The effective equivalent demand forced outage rate of animmature unit is the weighted combination of its historical and class-average
rates (i.e., Class Average Outage Rates). For example, the rate for a unit with n
full calendar years of operating experience is:

On page 621 of the referenced IEEE paper, the f-factor was defined for use as a mathematical
trick to permit the substitution of known quantities for un- known quantities in the equation
expressing the probability that a unit was unavailable during a demand period (equation 15).
The known quantities were P2(the probability of being in service during a demand period; i.e.,
state 2) and P1+ P3(the probabilities of being forced out during a demand period; i.e., states 1
and 3). Equation 15 is given as
3P

from which we can see that the f-factor weights the forced outage hours to reflect only that
portion which occur during periods of demand.
Because we still dont know how to separately define P3, we need to redefine the f-factor in
terms of data readily available from recorded outage statistics. Start by defining the frequency

Exhibit 5.2: Partial f-Factor Time Period
The partial f-factor is a measure of the equivalent full forced outage hours that occur during
times of demand. Theoretically, the partial f-factor is the ratio of the equivalent forced partial
outage hours occurring during demand periods to the total equivalent forced partial outage
hours. Assuming that the partial outages are distributed similarly during service hours and
reserve shutdown hours, then the partial f-factor can be expressed as the ratio of service hours
to the summation of service and reserve shutdown hours. Since available hours equals the
summation of service and reserve shutdown hours, the partial f-factor can be expressed as the
ratio of service hours to available hours, or

Item C: Modified Two-State Model for Reliability Calculations
The standard two-state model of a generator considers the unit as being either fully available or
fully unavailable. The modified two-state model is a better representation for reliability
calculations because it considers the distribution of outage states possible for a generator. Theresult of using the modified two-state generator availability model is a reduction in the amount
of reserve capacity required to maintain a reliability index of 10 years per day, as compared to
the reserve requirement determined using the standard model.
The standard two-state model calculates the mean available capacity as

EEFOR-1(=

MWcapacity,mean

EEFOR =
The implied capacity variance about the mean with the standard two-state model is
2C*
DEEFOR*)
DEEFOR-1(=2
where:
2MWvariance,=2
This is the maximum variance that can be experienced about the mean with the given effective
equivalent demand forced outage rate. Any representation of partial outage states will tend to
lower the variance.
The modified two-state model preserves both the mean and the variance of the original forced
outage distribution by simultaneously solving the two-state mean and variance equations for
unit capacity and effective equivalent demand forced outage rate using the two-state mean and
variance values. The resulting modified two-state equations are:

Item D: Rules for Consistency of Generator Outage Rate Calculations(*)
(1)Any errors or inconsistencies found in the PJM Outage Data History File must be corrected.
(2)All revisions to outage rates, for reasons of data integrity, must be accomplished by revisingthe PJM Outage Data History File. If this is not possible, manual revisions to the rates
calculated by the Generator Outage Rate Program must meet the following conditions:
(a)The manual adjustment must be documented and presented to the GeneratorUnavailability Subcommittee no later than one month prior to the rate publication
deadline.
(b)The manual adjustment must be approved by a majority of the Generator UnavailabilitySubcommittee members.
(c)The manual adjustment must be documented in the rate publication.
(d)The discrepancies found in the PJM Outage Data History File which necessitated themanual adjustment must be corrected through established data correction channels to
avoid future manual adjustment.
(3)Any outages due to natural disasters (e.g., 1972 Agnes Flood), which the GeneratorUnavailability Subcommittee determines to have a low probability of recurrence, can be
eliminated from the outage history when calculating outage rates for use in forecasting.
These special events are recorded in the GORP modification file.
(4)A units forced outage rate may be discounted to reflect an official capacity deratingprovided the following conditions are met:
(a)The derating caused the termination of a forced partial reduction which reflected theunits reduced capability during the period from January 1, 1972 through May 31,
1974 (1).
(b)Formal documentation of the derating adjustment must be presented to the GeneratorUnavailability Subcommittee no later than one month prior to the rate publication
deadline.
(c)The derating adjustment must be approved by a majority of the GeneratorUnavailability Subcommittee members.
(d)The derating adjustment must be documented in the rate publication.

Section 5: Miscellaneous Documentation
PJM Interconnection, L.L.C 5-8
Revision 12, Effective Date: 08/23/00M22S05V12.doc
The rate discounting is accomplished by deleting the reported forced partial outage time from
the Outage Data History File and subtracting the forced partial reduction capacity from any net
maximum dependable capacity that was reported concurrently with the reduction (2).
(5)The annual unit EFORDwill be 100% for any period of operation after 1992 during which
minimum reporting requirements are not met. Minimum reporting requirements are definedas either GADS event data or actual hourly net generation for units less than 10 MW. Table
III values for EFORDwill be used for all years prior to the first full year of operation and for
all non-reported years prior to 1992.
Companies that are unable to comply with the minimum reporting requirements after 1992 have
the option to appeal to the Planning Committee for an alternative to the 100% EFORDruling.
(*)These rules were formulated by the Generator Unavailability Subcommittee, approved by the
PJM Planning and Engineering Committee at its November, 1974 (172nd) meeting, and
published in the December, 1974 GUS report to P&E titled "Forced Outage Rates and
Unavailable Capability Due to Planned and Maintenance Outages for the PJM Supplemental
Agreement."
(1) It would not be feasible to adjust for deratings prior to this period due to less stringent data
reporting requirements that were in effect. Adjustments for deratings occurring subsequent to
this period are not legitimate. The PJM contract contains provisions to rerate units within a
reasonable time. During periods where a unit is overrated and a forced partial reduction is
reported, the higher capacity tends to compensate for the increased forced outage rate and future
forecast capacity obligation. Thus, an adjustment for the partial reduction in the outage history
would provide a redundant credit.
(2) An example of a unit satisfying condition 4a. The reported maximum net dependable
capacity of this unit for the period 1/1/72 through 5/31/74 was 132MW. For the entire 29-
month period, the unit had a 5MW forced capacity reduction. The unit was derated 5MW
effective 6/1/74. In compliance with these rules, the 5MW forced reduction was deleted from
the PJM Outage History File and the net maximum dependable capacity was changed to
127MW (132MW minus 5MW) for use in determining the equivalent outage hours.

However, to utilize the information readily available in the outage statistics, a somewhat
modified approach has been taken. For PJM reliability calculations, the effective equivalent
demand forced outage rate represents the mean per-unit unavailability. Therefore, the mean
capacity can be expressed as
C*D
EEFOR-(1 )=
Since the EEFOR includes 25% of the equivalent maintenance outage time, it is a measure ofthe units unavailability due to all unplanned outages. Therefore, the partial outage state
probabilities must be based on the total unplanned outage time spent in each state. A
maintenance f-factor has been introduced to transform the maintenance outage time from a
period hour to a demand hour basis so it can be added to the forced outage time. The
maintenance f-factor, which also included the 25% proportioning, is defined as

The Planning Study Outage Data Report and rolling twelve-month EFORdvalues used for the
determination of the unforced capacity factors for all units transacted within the eCapacity
system both utilize the Generator Outage Rate Program (GORP). This program is part of a web-based data collection and processing system referred to as the eGADS system. The equations
shown in Section 3 of this manual are all within the GORP program. Authorized users of the
eGADS system can enter data and run the GORP routines themselves to review the reliability
of their own equipment. They can not use the routines to access any other partys data.
