- Filter By Electric Reliability Law Blog
On February 19, 2021, in Docket No. RD21-4-000, NERC submitted a petition for approval of proposed Reliability Standard FAC-008-5 (Facility Ratings). Proposed Reliability Standard FAC-008-5 reflects the retirement of Requirement R7 of the currently effective standard. This proposal was recommended following the first phase of work under the NERC Standards Efficiency Review, which reviewed the body of NERC Reliability Standards to identify those Reliability Standards and requirements that were administrative in nature, duplicative to other standards, or provided no benefit to reliability. NERC has determined that Requirement R7 is redundant to those in other Reliability Standards and not needed for Reliability.
