Description

The purpose of this Best Practice is to standardize, to the extent possible, the minimum steps that an electric utility must include in its own practices for manually energizing a power system after an unplanned outage. This Best Practice is not meant to eliminate all manual recloses. It is intended to balance the risks to public safety resulting from a loss of power versus the potential risk of injury to non-utility workers or members of the public as a result of a manual reclose.
