Important areas of focus include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Understand how your company may currently be positioned relative to compliance with the new mandatory requirements.<\/li>\n<li>Analyze your existing generator protection systems relative to the new standards.<\/li>\n<li>Identify how your company\u2019s existing assets, processes and procedures would satisfy the proposed requirements.<\/li>\n<li>Develop and implement a plant to correct, modify and improve your company\u2019s compliance program in anticipation of the new standards.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>How do you plan to address reliability related to protection system maintenance programs?
