Low voltage High voltage Low frequency High frequency High voltage Which of the following actions must PJM member operators do during thunderstorm and tornado type weather conditions? Remove reclosing relays schemes from service Ensure automatic reclosing schemes are in service Remove all generators loaded below 20% from service Ensure that underfrequency relays are disabled Ensure automatic reclosing schemes are in service How long does PJM have to return operation to within reliable power system limits due to a catastrophic failure of the ICCP links or loss of EMS analysis tools? 5 minutes 15 minutes 30 minutes 60 minutes 30 minutes When PJM issues a Voltage Reduction Alert, which of the following is NOT an appropriate action for a Member dispatcher to take? Take steps to expedite the reduction, if needed Advise all station and key personnel Notify management Implement the voltage reduction without delay Implement the voltage reduction without delay If the rule of thumb for dumping load to increase frequency during system restoration is 6% per 1 Hz, how many MW should the operator shed to restore frequency to 60.0 Hz if their current system load is 2000 MW and the current system frequency is 58.5 Hz? 60 120 180 240 180 PJM restoration procedures stress the importance of restoring station light and power to substations. This is important for providing AC power to all of the following EXCEPT Station battery chargers Communication facilities SF6 heaters Power house lighting
