Outage


Document describing details of an active or planned outage in a part of the electrical network.
A non-planned outage may be created upon:
- a breaker trip,
- a fault indicator status change,
- a meter event indicating customer outage,
- a reception of one or more customer trouble calls, or
- an operator command, reflecting information obtained from the field crew.
Outage restoration may be performed using a switching plan which complements the outage information with detailed switching activities, including the relationship to the crew and work.
A planned outage may be created upon:
- a request for service, maintenance or construction work in the field, or
- an operator-defined outage for what-if/contingency network analysis.

Type: string

Revision number for this document.

Type: integer

the total number of customers that are served in the area (both outaged and not outaged).

Type: object

Estimated outage period for a planned outage. The start of the period is the start of the planned outage and the end of the period corresponds to the end of the planned outage.

Type: string Default: null

End date and time of this interval. The end date and time where the interval is defined up to, but excluded.

Type: string Default: null

Start date and time of this interval. The start date and time is included in the defined interval.

Type: integer

number of customers that have been restored in the area.

Type: string

Date and time that this document was created.

Type: integer

The original number of meters that were affected as reported by the OMS within the utility. That is, this is the total number of meters that were out at the beginning of the outage.

Type: string

The aliasName is free text human readable name of the object alternative to IdentifiedObject.name. It may be non unique and may not correlate to a naming hierarchy.
The attribute aliasName is retained because of backwards compatibility between CIM relases. It is however recommended to replace aliasName with the Name class as aliasName is planned for retirement at a future time.

Type: string

Master resource identifier issued by a model authority. The mRID is unique within an exchange context. Global uniqueness is easily achieved by using a UUID, as specified in RFC 4122, for the mRID. The use of UUID is strongly recommended.
For CIMXML data files in RDF syntax conforming to IEC 61970-552, the mRID is mapped to rdf:ID or rdf:about attributes that identify CIM object elements.

Type: string

The name is any free human readable and possibly non unique text naming the object.

Type: object

Document describing the consequence of an unplanned outage in a part of the electrical network. For the purposes of this model, an unplanned outage refers to a state where energy is not delivered; such as, customers out of service, a street light is not served, etc.
A unplanned outage may be created upon:
- impacts the SAIDI calculation
- a breaker trip,
- a fault indicator status change,
- a meter event indicating customer outage,
- a reception of one or more customer trouble calls, or
- an operator command, reflecting information obtained from the field crew.
Outage restoration may be performed using a switching plan which complements the outage information with detailed switching activities, including the relationship to the crew and work.
