Net Interchange Schedule (NIS) - ANSWER sum of all interchange schedules
multiplier for frequency bias is _______ - ANSWER 10
frequency bias (B) - ANSWER represented as a negative number in ACE
Calculation and reflects area natural response to frequency changes (Inertia,
governor & load). Is at least 1% of peak load for areas with native load & 1% if peak
generation output of area with no load.
If unable to calculate ACE for ________ contact the RC. - ANSWER 30 mins
what happens when you have internal generation lost? - ANSWER Frequency and
ACE drop and tie-line flows increase into your system
what happens with external generation lost? - ANSWER Frequency Drop with no
change in ACE and net ti-line flows increase out of your system.
Internal loss of load - ANSWER Frequency and ACE increase
External loss of load - ANSWER Frequency increases with no change in ACE

unavailable/ islanded situations
Flat Tie-Line (Constant Frequency) is used when - ANSWER frequency data is
unavailable - restoration
Net Interchange Actual (NIA) - ANSWER sum of all tie-line values
Net Interchange Actual (NIA) - ANSWER sum of all tie-line values
Multiplier for frequency Bias - ANSWER 10
Tie-Line Bias (Tie-Line Frequency Bias) is used - ANSWER for both tie-line and
frequency data and used at all times unless detrimental to operation of system.
