Listed below is the summary description of changes for the proposed Amended RAS Definition. Please refer back to the Consultation Letter under the “Attachments” section to view materials
related to the proposed Amended RAS Definition. Please place your comments/reasons for position underneath (if any).
Definitions - Amended
Existing ISO rules definition
Remedial Action Scheme - means
protection schemes designed to
perform pre-planned corrective
measures following a disturbance
to provide for acceptable AIES
performance or equipment protection
Proposed ISO rules definition
Rationale
Market Participant Comments
and/or Alternate Proposal
Remedial Action Scheme - means
a scheme designed to detect
predetermined power system
conditions and to automatically take
corrective actions that may include,
but are not limited to, adjusting or
tripping generation (MW and MVAr),
tripping load, or reconfiguring a
power system(s) in order to
accomplish objectives such as:
 maintaining stability of the
transmission system;
 maintaining acceptable
transmission system voltages;
 maintaining acceptable
transmission system power
flows; or
 limiting the impact of cascading
The AESO is proposing the
Amended RAS Definition to reduce
stakeholder confusion, to align with
the NERC definition and to align with
the proposed new remedial action
scheme definition for the Alberta
reliability standards.
Comment # 1:
With the proposed new definition of
Remedial Action Scheme (RAS), will
the AESO be reviewing and updating
the current ISO_RAS_Database to
ensure consistency with the
definition? Please confirm.

Comment # 2:
With the proposed new definition of
RAS, will the AESO continue to
classify RAS type (e.g. WECC RAS,
Alberta RAS, etc.) or change the
way that current RAS types are
classified? Please confirm.
Comments # 3:
The proposed definition states that

or extreme events.
The following do not individually
constitute a remedial action
scheme:
a) a protection system installed for
the purpose of detecting faults on
transmission facilities and
isolating the faulted facilities;
b) a protection system for
automatic underfrequency load
shedding and automatic
undervoltage load shedding
comprised of only distributed
relays;
c) out-of-step tripping and power
swing blocking schemes;
d) an automatic reclosing scheme;
e) a scheme applied on a facility for
non-fault conditions, including,
but not limited to:
(i) generator loss-of-field;
(ii) transformer top-oil
temperature;
(iii) overvoltage; or
(iv) overload
to protect the facility against
damage by removing it from
service;
f) a controller that switches or
regulates one or more of the
following:
(i) series or shunt reactive
devices,
(ii) flexible alternating current
transmission system
devices,
(iii) phase-shifting
transformers, variablefrequency transformers, or
(iv) tap-changing transformers
Issued for Market Participant Consultation: August 4, 2015
the 15 items (a, b, c, ……, o) do not
individually constitute a remedial
action scheme. Is the implication that
a scheme which is composed of
more than one of the items will be
deemed a RAS?
Comments # 4: (for item b)
What’s the definition of “distributed
relays”? What kind of UFLS or UVLS
is considered a RAS? Would a local
UFLS and UVLS be considered a
RAS? Please clarify.
Comments # 5: (for item i)
As per the proposed definition, “a
scheme that automatically deenergizes a line for a non-fault
operation when one end of the line is
open” does not individually constitute
a remedial action scheme. There is a
WECC RAS (RAS #14 in current
ISO_RAS_Database) called “1201L
Open breaker (3-pole) transfer trip”
which automatically de-energizes the
line 1201L for a non-fault operation
when one end of the line is open.
Please clarify if this is still a RAS
under the proposed RAS definition.
Comment # 6: (for item j)
As per the proposed definition, “a
scheme that provides anti-islanding
protection” does not individually
constitute a remedial action scheme.
There are quite a few “Anti-islanding
schemes” in the current
ISO_RAS_Database. Please clarify
if these Anti-islanding schemes are
still RAS under the proposed RAS
definition.

and that is located at and
monitors quantities solely at the
same station as the facility being
switched or regulated;
g) a flexible alternating current
transmission controller that
remotely switches static shunt
reactive devices located at other
stations to regulate the output of
a single flexible alternating
current transmission device;
h) a scheme or controller that
remotely switches shunt reactors
and shunt capacitors for voltage
regulation that would otherwise
be manually switched;
i) a scheme that automatically deenergizes a line for a non-fault
operation when one end of the
line is open;
j) a scheme that provides antiislanding protection (e.g. protects
load from the effects of being
isolated with generation that may
not be capable of maintaining
acceptable frequency and
voltage);
k) an automatic sequence that
proceeds when manually initiated
solely by a power system
operator;
l) a temporary SCADA action
scheme that may be implemented
to facilitate construction of
transmission projects to assist in
system performance during
temporary build stages;
m) modulation of high voltage direct
current or flexible alternating
current transmission via
supplementary controls, such as

angle damping or frequency
damping applied to damp local or
inter-area oscillations;
n) a sub-synchronous resonance
protection scheme that directly
detects sub-synchronous
quantities (e.g., currents or
torsional oscillations); or
o) a generator control including, but
not limited to:
(i) automatic generation
control,
(ii) generation excitation (e.g.
automatic voltage
regulation and power
system stabilizers),
(iii) fast valving, and
(iv) speed governing.
