Overview of WSCC August 10, 1996
15:48 PAST Disturbance
Based on WSCC Disturbance Report
Approved by WSCC Operations
Committee on October 18, 1996
12
High northwest transmission loading
High imports to CA
Heavy imports from Canada
and Idaho
COI at 4750 MW
Similar to conditions prior to
7/2/96 disturbance
Warning signs visible
Previous high-load issues
Small power/large voltage
swings
Suggested voltage support
problems in NW

Equipment out of service
Lines
500 kV: Big Eddy-Ostrander,
John Day-Marion, and Marion-
Lane (reactive support around
Portland) flashover to trees
115 kV: Allston-Rainer degraded
hdwr, Longview-Lexington cable
installation.
Breakers
500 kV: Marion, Keeler
(modifications)
Transformers
500/230 kV: Keeler (modification)
Static VAR Comp (SVC)
Keeler reduced support to
500 kV (tied to 230 kV side)

Final Result
28,000 MW of under-frequency load shedding
20,000 MW of undesired generation loss
Four major islands
Northern California (North of LA to Oregon border)
Losses: 11,600 MW load; 7,900 MW generation
Frequency excursions: 58.54 60.7 58.3, restored in 2.5 hrs.
Southern California (SoCal, NV, AZ, NM, El Paso, Baja)
Losses: 15 820 MW load; 13,500 MW generation
Frequency excursions: 61.3 58.5, restored in 70 min.
Northern (BC, OR, WA, MT, WY, ID)
Losses: 2,100 MW load; 5,700 MW generation
Frequency excursions: 60.4, restored in 7 minutes
Alberta
Losses: 970 MW load; 146 MW generation
Frequency excursions: 60.4 59.0, restored in 6 minutes

Open Questions re. Complexity
Report only identifies the incontrovertible points
and fails to address more controversial questions:
Why was line maintenance inadequate?
Why was system operated in single-contingency mode?
Why did AZ-CA separation scheme fail to operate?
Why did models fail to predict oscillations?
Why did system damping fail?
Lesson for us:
Dont go just by the official reports. Much more is not
reported or discussed because of sensitivities. The
social dynamics of a tightly knit community factors into
what is knowable. We have to look deeper.
