dc.description.abstract | Attempts to relate the worth of electric service reliability to the cost of providing that reliability is becoming n important aspect of power system planning and operation. Evaluation of the economic or socioeconomic worth of power system reliability is a complex task and is often approached by assessing the cost of unreliability, ie: the losses incurred as a result of electric power interruptions) This thesis presents a possible methodology to use customer cost—of—interruption data to develop procedures to obtain a composite customer damage function. Conceptually, this function is a combination of the interruption losses of all electrical customers weighted in proportion to their energy utilization for a particular service area. This thesis also describes the customer related and interruption related variables which affect the customer damage function, making use of actual data to illustrate the effects. | |
