| Description: | This System Change Request (SCR) will make a change to the Outage Scheduler system so that the Qualified Scheduling Entity (QSE) is able to schedule Level I, II and III Maintenance Outages in a way that coincides with the definition of these Maintenance Outages shown in Protocol Section 2.1. Currently the data entry into the Outage Scheduler allows the user to enter the start of the proposed Outage only and the system infers from that the Maintenance Level of the Outage. However, there are instances where the start of the Outage can actually be earlier than that required by the designated Maintenance Level. The system needs to be changed so that the user can enter the requested start date of the Outage separately from the duration of time allowed before the maintenance would prevent a Forced Outage. |
| Reason: | The current Outage Scheduler system does not allow the user to provide all of the information ERCOT needs for optimal and precise Outage scheduling and actually could infer information in an incorrect way. The system needs to request additional information to adequately inform ERCOT of the need for a Maintenance Outage. |
