R-B10012010-02 UPDATE - Informational: Retail Implementation Notice
SHORT DESCRIPTION:
Implementation of Texas SET 3.0A, including non-system impacting changes to the
Texas SET Implementation Guides.
UPDATE: On the October 12, 2010 Change Control Call, TX SET
approved four (4) new SAC04 Codes to be added to the 810_03 SAC04 Matrix which
will be implemented with TX SET 3.0A.
INTENDED AUDIENCE:
CRs, TDSPs, and ERCOT
LONG DESCRIPTION:
On November 30, 2010, ERCOT will be implementing Texas SET 3.0A which will
include changes to the Texas SET Implementation Guides that were deemed as
non-system impacting changes but were necessary to make sure the guides were
up-to-date and correct.
Outline of changes is as follows:
·
Removing
examples from the Implementation Guides and creating separate Example Documents
to allow for ease of updates outside of a Texas SET Implementation
o
Formal
process to be used for requesting example updates:
§ Market Participant submits Texas SET
Issue document requesting Example update
§ Texas SET Leadership will schedule
time at the next Texas SET meeting to discuss the change request
§ Once the updated Example is posted to
the ERCOT website ERCOT will send notification to the Texas SET list serve
o
Changes
to the Examples do not change the Implementation Guide and therefore have no
system functionality impact; otherwise changes will be made with a Texas SET
Release.
o
Examples
will be updated with any Texas SET Release to ensure Examples are current and
accurate.
·
Removing
the SAC04 codes from the 810_02 and 810_03 and creating an external SAC04 Code
Matrix to allow for ease of updates outside of a Texas SET Implementation
o
Formal
process to be used for requesting the addition of any new SAC04 codes.
§ TDSP submit Texas SET Issue document
requesting addition of a new SAC04 code.
§ Texas SET Leadership will work with
ERCOT to schedule time at the next Texas SET meeting for a SAC04 Approval Call
§ An emergency call will be scheduled if
urgency is requested by the TDSP
§ Notification (separate from the
regular Texas SET meeting notice) will be sent to the Texas SET list serve
announcing the SAC04 Approval Call
§ Codes should have an implementation
date of no less than 30 days from date of approval when possible.
§ Once the updated SAC04 Table is posted
to the ERCOT website ERCOT will send notification to the Texas SET list serve
indicating approval of the new SAC04 code.
o
The
SAC04 Matrix will be posted to ercot.com along with the Texas SET
Implementation Guides.
o
The
addition of four (4) new SAC04 Codes to the 810_03 SAC04 Matrix
o
Market
Participants should feel free to contact the TDSP to request addition of SAC04
codes.
·
Other
benefits of the implementation
o
Corrections
in spelling and grammar
o
Updates
to reflect that certain reject codes are ERCOT ONLY. This was the
intention of these particular rejects, however the guides did not correctly
reflect as such.
o
Remove
references to Drop to AREP since this process is no longer used in the market
o
Update
naming conventions to reflect Standard and Self-selected Switches to be
consistent with the PUCT Rules
