Standard Coordinators Report

May 13, 2008

 

 

The Standards Coordinator, Jeffrey Gilbert, met with the Chairs of the Working Groups writing and revising standards documents at a session beginning at 8:00 AM on May 13, 2008, in the Grand ABC room of the Kansas City Marriott Country Club Plaza. Lisa Perry. IEEE Standards Project Editor, answered questions concerning editing of standards.

 

Jennie Steinhagen, Program Manager, Document Development IEEE Standards Activities, and Lisa Perry spoke about the IEEE-SA Word template and answered questions in an afternoon session held at 1:30 PM.

 

The status of  PARs is summarized below. The actions to be taken for keeping PAR approvals up-to-date and for keeping Standards and Guides alive are identified. A summary of the specific approvals received, since the January, 2008 meeting of the PSRC, is identified as well.

 

Information concerning the Standards Association (SA), Board of Governors, Committees of SA, and development of standards, recommended practices and guides and related issues is available on the following web site.

Standards Coordination Effort

PARs applied for by all Committees of the Power Engineering Society (PES) are listed in the NESCOM meeting minutes.  The March 26,2008 meeting minutes included a PAR request submitted by the IEEE PES Transmission and Distribution Committee:

 

 P1782  “Guide for Collecting, Categorizing and Utilization of Information Related to Electric Power Distribution Interruption Events.”

 

This PAR request was tabled to a future meeting due to a lack of response.  If you are interested in this development work, contact the Chairman or Secretary of the Transmission and Distribution Committee.
