- Explanatory notes:
The number of pending events and the number of events from the previous year are for information purposes only.
Total number of events = Number of events in limit + Number of events out of limit. This principle does not apply to the line in Section 2(e) in storage, Section 3(i) in transmission, and Section 4(l) SAIDI and SAIFI in distribution. Here, the number of in-limit events is a fixed value and if the actual value is less than or equal to the fixed value then the principle of sum of number of in-limit events + number of out-of-limit events does not apply.
Entities shall report '0' in the number of out-of-limit events if the actual value of the number of in-limit events is less than or equal to the fixed value and report the difference between the actual value and the fixed value if it is greater than the fixed value.
In the total number of events, the entity shall report the actual value if it is less than or equal to the fixed value and if the actual value is greater than the fixed value in the total number of events, the entity shall report in Total number of events, the sum of the number of events in limit + number of events out of limit.
