NRS 048-6 : Medium Voltage Network Interruption Performance Measuring and Reporting Standard
For NRS 048 reporting purposes, MV is defined as the set of nominal
voltage levels 1 kV ≤ Un < 44 kV

9 Why Measure……and Report ?
“To measure is to know.”“If you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it……..” Lord Kelvin, IEC's first President (1906)
NRS 048-6 provides a standard and consistent framework of MV network interruption performance measurement and reporting by distributor licensees
in South Africa

14Key Objectives of NRS 048-6 Provide standard, accurate and reliable network interruption performance measures for South Africa Minimum future system and data requirements for interruption capturing and recording for licensees Framework for local and international network performance (reliability) benchmarking and best practices Assist NERSA and licensees with the implementation of Incentive Based Regulation (IBR) Common industry high level interruption cause code hierarchy : identifying problem areas Provide annual regulatory reporting guidelines
15Foundation for NRS 048-6 International standards, work and developments
• IEEE P1366 standard (USA)• IEEE Task force on reporting practices• CIGRE : Technical report TB261• UK regulator (ofgem) : “QOS” related standards
Local work, lessons learnt and experiences • Eskom Distribution standards • Distributor licensees• AMEU role-players • Customer and industry role-players input

6. Data and change

NRS 048-6 standard NRS 048-6 standard
2. Interruption categories for
reporting
5. Interruption cause code categories
4. Event data auditing and
validation
3. Definition for performance
indices
It is recognised that NRS 048-6 may not be practically and financially possible currently for some licensees and is a long term objective for the effective
management of MV network interruption performance in South Africa
18Key Concepts Introduced Interruption categories for reporting
• Unplanned (“U”)• Planned (“P”) • Customer related (“C”)• Intake supply (“S’)
Customer network link (CNL) and end state levels• Data connectivity model (HV, MV and LV)• % data accuracy and completeness levels
Re-interruptions and criteria for counting• Definition and strict application criteria• Comprehensive explanatory notes
19Key Concepts Introduced Cont. Pre-arranged events for planned interruptions
• Treatment and counting of planned and co-ordinated interruptions for reporting
Generic customer categories• Broad and generic customer category descriptions• Long term (forward looking) regulatory requirements
Classification and reporting of major events• Criteria A : national comparison of licensees• Criteria B : year-on-year licensee
performance comparison and tracking
• Criteria C : internal licensee reporting
20Key Concepts Introduced Cont.. Accuracy reporting estimation methodology
• Method to audit and estimate the accuracy of the reported performance measures by licensees
• “Gatekeeper” to ensure the accuracy and integrity
Data and change management (software)• Requirements for data archiving• Requirements for tracking any system changes
Different types of licensee reporting• Annual power quality reporting• Future incentive based (IBR) reporting• Reporting for benchmarking purposes
21
4. The Way Forward
22Implementation Solid future framework for EDI
4 to 7 years business plan, in order to be completely implemented by the licensees Some licensees may not meet the current requirements and may require selective exemptions Resource and financial constraints that need to be managed

The challenge is now for the distributor licensees to implement the NRS 048-6 standard and start
improving their electricity service delivery – reliability and availability of electricity supply.
