Abstract: | This procedure describes what activities are performed by an operator when he gets the order to release a determined value of load in a period, due to the possibility of partial or complete blackout. When the emergency situation is over, the operator has to restore the power. It is possible to create and execute certain jobs in order to restore power [UC24], [UC25] and [UC26]. Load shedding is a function to protect equipment against under-frequency. This kind of action is drastic and should only be used as a last resource. But there are situations where there is no other possibility. It can avoid danger to human life in sequence of a blackout, a voltage collapse, etc. Automatic load shedding is described in [UC28].
