It is important to identify the applicable protection system functions of generators and transmission lines identified in Attachment A of the PRC-027-1 standard. Based on PRC-027-1 Requirement R2, utilities should analyze the relay protective settings whether they are set to operate in the intended sequence during faults.\u00a0 TRC is currently working with multiple clients to develop PRC-027-1 studies for their facilities to either show compliance or develop relay protection settings to meet compliance. Our PRC-027-1 analysis report will provide the details of coordination results including plots and explanations in a comprehensive format for use by clients to provide evidence of compliance with the
