PGDTF:

 

I have posted results from our most recent GIC models (the models posted on 04132018) but with the GIC files from those models modified to approximate the effect of the 14 generator retirements that are listed in the December 2017 CDR ( see: http://www.ercot.com/gridinfo/resource ).

 

Transformer GIC flow information was calculated with the transformer vector group designation for the GSU associated with the (retirement) units listed below changed to “Dd”.  I have provided the complete *.gic files in this posting but have also provided the following files to help you locate the modified records:

The files listed below exclusively contain Transformer GIC flow information resulting from these modifications.  Please note that there are still no ERCOT Transformers that exceed the 75 Amp Effective GIC flow threshold.
