What is the balancing authority's frequency response due to the external loss of 1,000 MW generator which causes system frequency to decline to 59.95 Hz? - 15 MW A system operator experiences a system failure of AGC and ACE functions. The operator's first priority should be to: - manually calculate ACE and adjust generation to maintain scheduled interchange Interruptible loads may be dispatched to alleviate: - capacity deficiency Telecommunication facilities that link with interconnected systems should be available to the system operator: - on a continuous basis Initial response to frequency decline occurs from what source? - frequency response characteristic One way to obtain load relief during a capacity emergency would be to: - reduce voltage When a system's anticipated operating conditions threaten the reliability of the interconnection, the system strength should be examined and: - other systems
