EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

One of the Key Performance Indicators (KPI) under the Energy White Paper 2014 is to reduce the number

of power outages by 2035, which is in line with Wawasan 2035. Therefore, quantitative reliability

indices measurement such as System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI) and System Average

Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI) has been calculated for three 11 kV and 66 kV substations in

Brunei Darussalam.

In this study, IEEE Guide for Electric Power Distribution Reliability Indices (IEEE Std 1366-2012) is

used as the methodology and only unplanned and sustained interruptions are taken into account to provide

consistency in all four districts, to review and improve current reliability and performance of distribution

system in Brunei Darussalam. To further improve the performance of distribution system, design and

implementation of Smart Grid technologies can be utilized in Brunei Darussalam

1. INTRODUCTION

More than half of Brunei Darussalam’s revenue comes from the energy sector. The Energy White paper

has outlined three strategic goals to realize Brunei Darussalam’s energy vision. One of the Key

Performance Indicator (KPI) is to reduce the number of power outages by 2035, in line with the goals of

Wawasan 2035 [1].

The main aim of this project is to provide electric power distribution reliability indices, namely System

Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI) and System Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI),

to benchmark DES (Department of Electrical Services) and chart improvements used in all utilities

worldwide. As well as to identify root causes of power outages in Brunei Darussalam.

The reliability indices of electric power distribution will follow a set of methodology outlined in IEEE

Guide for Electric Power Distribution Reliability Indices [2] to ensure the indices obtained are consistent

with best practices in the Power Industry.

1.1 Scope of Work

Understand existing distribution equipment and protection philosophy. This includes the

understanding of IEEE Std. 1366-2012 methodology (and other standards Department of

Electrical Services (DES) used) and consultation from DES personnel.

Gather information from DES. Conduct survey at a few substations and their feeders. Create and

understand scenarios given by DES.

Obtain and analyze the data given to calculate SAIDI (in minutes) and SAIFI.

Compare the results obtained for SAIDI and SAIFI with DES.

Write report on SAIDI and SAIFI results and peer review.

Execution plan (Gantt chart) is attached at the back of this report.

3. GLOSSARY

Customer A metered electrical service point for which

an active bill account is established at a

specific location.

Interruption The total loss of electric power on one or

more normally energy conductors to one or

more customers connected to the distribution

portion of the system.

Interruption Duration The time period from the initiation of an

interruption until service has been

restored to the affected customers.

Major Event An event that exceeds the reasonable design

and or operational limits of the electric

power system.

Major Event Day (MED) A day where the daily SAIDI index exceeds

a Major Event Day (MED) threshold value.

Interruptions which occur on MED should

be separately analyzed.

Momentary Interruption The brief loss of power delivery to one or

more customers caused by opening and

closing operation of an interrupting device.

Usually less than 5 minutes.

Outage The loss of ability of a component to deliver

power.

Planned Interruption The loss of electric power to one or more

customers that results from a planned

outage.

Reporting period The time period from which interruption

data is to be included in the reliability index

calculations.

Sustained Interruption Any interruption not classified as a part of a

momentary event. Interruption which lasts

more than 5 minutes.

Total number of customers served The average number of customers served

during the reporting period. If a different

customer total is used, it must be clearly

defined in the report.

4. POWER SYSTEM RELIABILITY

4.1 Background Electric power system is one of the most important and complex systems created by human. It comprises

countless facilities and structures, systems and subsystems, components and equipments and interactions

between all [3]. It was also reported that more than 50% of reliability depends on the performance of

distribution system [3]

Electric power has become an essential part of humans’ lives up to an extent that it is impossible to live

without electrical power. This stresses the importance of power system reliability. Reliability of power

system is mainly concerned with customer interruptions, thus, it is a subset of power quality [4].

In this report, two main power system reliability indices are looked into, particularly SAIDI (System

Average Interruption Duration Index) and SAIFI (System Average Interruption Frequency Index).

Additional index such as CAIDI (Customer Average Interruption Duration Index) can also be derived

from the initial indices.

There are mainly two main types of interruptions, sustained and momentary. Where sustained interruption

is closely related to reliability issue (more than five minutes), and momentary interruptions as power

quality issue (usually less than five minutes) [2,4].

Figure 1: shows Power Quality Subset [4]

4.2 SYSTEM AVERAGE INTERRUPTION DURATION INDEX (SAIDI)

The System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI) indicates the sum duration of interruption for

the average customer during a predefined set of time [2]. The unit used to measure SAIDI is in minutes

or hours of interruption. The equation used to measure SAIDI is given in Eq. (1)[2].

To calculate the index, Eq (2) can be used, where ri is restoration time for each interruption event, Ni

stands for number of interrupted customers for each sustained interruption event during a reporting

period, NT is total number of customers served for the area and CMI stands for customer minutes of

interruption [2].

Figure 3 shows Unplanned SAIDI for various countries, excluding exceptional events [5]

From Figures 2 and 3, it can be observed that due to the elimination of exceptional events, the SAIDI

decreases.

4.3 SYSTEM AVERAGE INTERRUPTION FREQUENCY INDEX (SAIFI)

The System Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI) shows how frequently the average customer

experiences a sustained interruption over a predefined period of time. The equation used to calculate

SAIFI is (Eq 3) [2].

4.4 Distribution System

The distribution system is the final stage in delivering electrical power to consumers. An ordinary

distribution system consists of step – down transformer with various lengths (a few hundred meters to

several kilometers), so the voltage can be stepped down to distributed levels for industrial, commercial

and residential users [9].

5. METHODOLOGY IEEE GUIDE In order to accurately develop indices of a power system reliability measurement, IEEE Std 1366-2012

was used as a methodology, so as to obtain consistent results amongst utilities in the region.

A Major Event Day (MED) is an identified day in which the daily system SAIDI exceeds a threshold

value called TMED. Thus, the SAIDI index obtained will be consistent regardless of size of utility and any

anomaly (MED value) which may lead to a higher SAIDI value is analyzed separately and removed from

indices calculation.

A TMED value is typically obtained at the end of each reporting period (one year) for use during the next

reporting period as follows [2]:

Obtain daily SAIDI values for five years, which ends on the final day of the last entire reporting

period.

Only include days which have SAIDI/day value which can contribute in calculation of TMED, i.e

exclude days where interruptions did not occur.

Take the natural log of each daily SAIDI value in the data set

Find alpha, the average of the log of the data set

Find Beta, the standard deviation of the log of the data set.

Compute the MED threshold, using Eq. (5) [2]

)5.2( eTMED (5)

Any day with daily SAIDI greater than the threshold value Tmed that occurs during the subsequent

reporting period is classified as MED.

5.1 Factors that cause variation in reported indices There are various factors that can cause difference in the indices reported by different utilities. Some

examples are in [2];

Level of automated data collection

Geography

System design

Data classification

Page 15: Reliability Indices Measurement - BNERI Documents/Reliability Indices...BNERI Reliability Indices Measurement Reliability Indices Measurement for three 11 kV and 66 kV substations

Draft dated 27th May 2015 10 of 34

It is highly essential to classify performance for each day in the data set to be analyzed as either day-to-

day or MED; false decision may occur when this important step is not performed, as MED may disguise

overall daily performance.

5.2 Outages that should not be taken into account when calculating indices

There are several types of outages that should not be included when calculating the indices, such as [2]:

Interruptions that occur as a result of outage on customer – owned facilities

Loss of supply from another utility

Planned interruptions

Momentary interruptions

These interruptions are not included in calculation of SAIDI and SAIFI as to provide uniform and

consistent policy in all four districts. Furthermore, the calculation is done to review and improve current

performance of unplanned events.

5.3 Example of using MED definition to identify Major Event.

5.5 Catastrophic Days

It is assumed that, when calculating the daily SAIDI and the 2.5β method, the distribution of the natural

log values will look like a Gaussian distribution (a bell-shaped curve) [2]. Events such as hurricanes or ice

storms typically result in abnormally higher daily SAIDI values, and these events are called “catastrophic

events”, and have a slim probability of happening [2].

It is typical for catastrophic event, which leads to higher SAIDI values to exist in data sets and this will

cause relatively small outward shift in the resulting reliability metric trends [2]. Thus, measures have been

taken to identify and process catastrophic, in order to remove the effect it has on reliability metric trends

[2].

Furthermore, when catastrophic events are not taken into account, this may cause a huge increase in the

events identified as MEDs. It was also proposed that catastrophic events should be processed and

determined on an individual company basis by regulators and utilities itself, as no universal solution has

been devised to achieve acceptable results [2].

6. SYSTEM RELIABILITY CALCULATION FOR BRUNEI

DARUSSALAM.

6.1 Step Restoration When power outages occur, power is not always fully restored in one stage, but, it takes a series of stages

to restore power to all interrupted customers, this process is called step restoration. A sample calculation

is shown below to illustrate how SAIDI is calculated when step restoration takes place. It is also

important to know the duration of outages during restoration and number of customers restored at a

particular restoration time to accurately calculate SAIDI.

Figure 6: Single line network representation

Page 20: Reliability Indices Measurement - BNERI Documents/Reliability Indices...BNERI Reliability Indices Measurement Reliability Indices Measurement for three 11 kV and 66 kV substations

Draft dated 27th May 2015 15 of 34

Figure 6 shows a representation of single line network. A sample case of step restoration can be broken

down into a few steps as follow:

When a fault occurs at X, Breaker number 1 opens and isolates the fault. Operation on Breaker

number 1 also opens the load break switch (LBS) of substations A, B, C and D. At this point,

outage of power occurs at A, B, C and D

Operator is sent to site to locate the Fault Circuit Indicator (FCI) which identifies the fault

location path.

1. LBS at A1 is closed to restore partial power. Since load at substation A is restored, then

A2 is closed.

2. Operator arrives at substation B, checks the FCI and closes LBS B1 to restore partial

power. Since the load at substation B1 is restored, then B2 is closed.

3. Operator arrives at substation C, checks the FCI and closes LBS C1 to restore partial

power. Since the load at substation C1 is restored, then C2 is closed.

4. Operator arrives at substation D, checks the FCI and closes LBS D1 to restore partial

power. Since the load at substation D1 is restored, and then D2 is closed but due to the

presence of fault, power is not restored back to the affected customers, and fault is

detected. This fault is then isolated and reported by operator.

Permanent repairs are completed, and power to all customers is restored. The outage event is

concluded.

One example of step restoration took place in Kuala Belait on the 28th of March 2014; the number of

customers restored at each restoration was not known in detail. Thus, percentages of customers restored

are used to illustrate how the amount of customers initially restored affects the SAIDI value.

Three sample cases are tabulated to calculate SAIDI where the percentages of customers restored are

varied.

The three sample cases are:

In Table 4: Equal number of customers is restored in four separate restoration times (25%).

In Table 5: More customers are restored in the first 20 minutes (75%)

In Table 6: Remaining 75% of customers restored after 80 minutes.

Scenario orders numbered 1-4, in Tables 4, 5 and 6 represent the steps (stages) taken to close each LBS

(A B, C and D – refer to Figure 6), locate the fault and restore power back to interrupted customers

Table 6: Sample step restoration where 75% of customers are restored in the last 20 minutes

From the SAIDI values obtained from Table (4), Table (5) and Table (6) above, it can be observed that

SAIDI value is smaller when the first batch of customers restored are higher (29 mins from Table 5).

Meanwhile, when the remaining 75% of customers are restored after 80 minutes, the SAIDI value

increases to 71 minutes and when equal number of customers restored takes place at each restoration

time, the value of SAIDI lies in between 71 and 29 minutes, that is 50 minutes.

In conclusion, when the distribution of customers restored and the number of customers restored at each

restoration time are not known, it can be seen that, the SAIDI value lies more towards the time when the

To carry out the calculation to estimate the SAIDI and SAIFI for Brunei Darussalam, three 11 kV

substations have been analyzed, which are:

Kuala Belait Substation

Mentiri Substation

Beribi Substation

Draft dated 27th May 2015 18 of 34

6.2.1 SAIDI calculation for 11 kV substations To develop the estimates of SAIDI for the three 11 kV substations, a few parameters were looked into in

the power outages data provided by DES (Appendix 2), as mentioned in previous chapter (Chapter 5).

The parameters are:

If restoration of power occur in full or in steps (step restoration)

If Major Event Day (MED) is involved (outage which will increase the SAIDI value – typically

due to natural disasters where outages can last for days)

A few step restoration scenarios were identified in Kuala Belait outages in year 2014 and 2013 (no step

restoration identified in Beribi and Mentiri). The identified step restoration outages are highlighted in

Appendix 2. Further breakdown on calculation of SAIDI for step restoration is laid out below (Tables 7-

11). The calculation of SAIDI which involves step restoration cannot be done accurately as the number of

customers restored at a particular restoration time is not known in detail.

Moreover, due to unavailability of five historical years of data, calculation of MED threshold, as per

reference from IEEE Std 1366-2012 [2] cannot be performed. Thus, in this calculation, it is assumed that

equal number of customers are restored at each restoration time.

6.2.2 SAIFI calculation for 11 kV substations

Estimate of SAIFI is carried out for the three substations mentioned earlier. It is observed that the value of

SAIFI for Kuala Belait and Mentiri increases from 2013 to 2014, this is possibly due to deteriorating of

the equipment for example excess lightning, storm and animal contact.

6.3 Analysis of three 66 kV substations in Brunei Darussalam. Three representative 66 kV substations have also been analyzed to obtain the SAIDI and SAIFI values,

which are:

Kuala Belait Substation

Mentiri Substation

Beribi Substation

6.3.1 SAIDI calculation for 66 kV substations

To develop the estimates of SAIDI for the three 66 kV substations, a few parameters were looked into in

the power outages data provided by DES (Appendix 2), as mentioned in previous chapter (Chapter 5).

The parameters are:

If restoration of power occur in full or in steps (step restoration)

If Major Event Day is involved (outage which will increase the SAIDI value – typically due to

natural disasters where outages can last for days)

A few step restoration scenarios were identified in Kuala Belait outages in the year 2014 and 2013. From

the data given by DES, there were no recorded outages in 66 kV substations Mentiri for year 2014 and

Beribi for the year 2014 and 2013. Further breakdown on calculation of SAIDI for step restoration is laid

out below (Tables 13- 21). The calculation of SAIDI which involves step restoration cannot be done

accurately as the number of customers restored at a particular restoration time is not known in detail.

Thus, in this calculation, it is assumed that equal number of customers are restored at each restoration

time.

that the SAIFI values for Kuala Belait and Mentiri decrease from 2013 to 2014. Since, there were no

recorded outages in Beribi for the two consecutive years, the SAIFI value remains zero.

7. POWER OUTAGE

Power system outage means a failure of part of the power supply system for example transformer out of

service, an open breaker when it should be closed, and a line down [6], a power outage consequentially

will lead to a number of consumers being in an absence of electrical energy for a duration of time [3].

Power outage can last a few hours up to several days, and this may greatly impact businesses,

manufacturers (in downtime and lost production) [8], and hospitals.

7.1 Causes of power outages.

There are several reasons that may contribute to power outages, such as weather – related outages (i.e

lightning, rain) and other outages caused by man and animals. While it is possible to identify the causes of

power outages, absolute future power outage prevention is highly unlikely to take place, but it can be

minimized up to a certain degree.

Weather related power outages

Faulty equipment – faulty underground cable

Overcurrent – trip

Flashover transformer

Animal contacts

People induced including – pole and overhead contacts underground digging [9]

7.1.1 Weather related power outages.

A large number of power failures and outages are caused by natural weather such as thunderstorm, high

winds, snow, ice and even dust [7]. In Brunei Darussalam, the occurrence of lightning and thunderstorm

is highly frequent, thus, this can be categorized as one of the main causes of power outages in this

country. Power outages are mainly caused by damage from trees falling on electrical lines and poles,

especially on longer transmission lines which carry bulk power [8], thus circuit breakers or other

protective equipment shut off power flow [13]

Page 35: Reliability Indices Measurement - BNERI Documents/Reliability Indices...BNERI Reliability Indices Measurement Reliability Indices Measurement for three 11 kV and 66 kV substations

Draft dated 27th May 2015 30 of 34

7.1.2 Faulty Equipment

Faulty underground cable has also been identified as one of the reasons for power outages in Brunei

Darussalam.

7.1.3 Overcurrent

Overcurrent occurs when excessive electric current flows through a conductor, which may dangerously

lead to excessive generation of heat and cause failure in equipment. Thus, circuit breakers trip to shut off

power flow.

7.1.4 Flashover transformer

This happens when power lines touch each other or the ground, and consequently lead to short circuit and

an arc or a flashover.

7.1.5 Animal Contacts

Animals such as monkeys and squirrels may climb on certain pieces of equipment (transformers and

fuses), which consequently causes the equipment to shut down [13].

7.1.6 People induced including: pole and overhead contacts and underground

digging

Pole and overhead contacts during maintenance and excavation work by contractors may accidentally hit

underground cables, thus, directly affecting power supply [9].

7.1.7 Short Circuit

Short circuit happens when an electric current travels a different path from the planned one in an

electrical circuit [7]. Due to the excessive electric current, this may lead to circuit damage and

consequentially fire and explosion.

7.1.8 Electrical Trees

Electrical treeing is a scenario which affects high power installations such as high power cables and

transformers [7]. Partial electric discharges may form in the equipment due to impurities or mechanical

defect used in high voltage installations [7]. If the fault goes undetected, this can lead to constant

degradation of the equipment and finally result in a major breakdown – power loss [7]

7.2 Examples of power outages (historical blackouts).

Power outages are common in this modern world, but its adverse effects have played a major role in

trying to improve the electrical power system. Some power outages have affected thousands of people,

and lasted for a couple of days, in which, this has led to further economic losses.

Brazil and Paraguay (10 November 2009)

This outage occurred due to natural event; where continuous heavy rain and strong winds had caused a

number of transformers to short circuit and consequentially shutting all 20 turbines in the hydroelectric

power plant due to sudden fall of power demand. This incident has put a halt to subways operations, and

most of Brazil’s phone network collapsed. This outage has affected about 87 million people, and lasted

from 25 minutes to 7 hours [10].

India (2 January 2001)[cite]

A technical failure, more specifically, failure of substation in Uttar Pradesh has caused a widespread

of power outages which affected major hospitals, treatment plants, and pumping stations. As a result

from this failure, millions of people were affected as the water supply broke down. The outage has

also caused chaos in train and land operations. This disruption has affected 226 million people, and

lasted for 12 hours and economic losses were estimated to be USD 110million [10].

USA (North – East) + Canada (Central) 14 August 2003.

A large area of Midwest and Northeast United States and Ontario, Canada suffered from power

outages due to human error, lack of maintenance and total equipment break down. The power outage

lasted for four consecutive days and 50 million people were affected. A total economic loss of USD 6

Billion was also recorded. [10]

From the list of examples of outages, it can be observed that reliability of electrical power system plays a

major role in everyday life. A power outage may last from a few hours to a few days, and the economic

loss a country has to endure during this period can reach billions of dollars. Thus, it is important to put

emphasis on reliability of power system, to benchmark and simultaneously improve the electrical power

system supplied to consumers.

8. CONCLUSION

Reliability indices measurement for SAIDI and SAIFI has been carried out for three 11 kV and 66 kV

substations in Brunei Darussalam which are Kuala Belait, Mentiri and Beribi substation. Different types

of interruptions were looked into, and to provide consistent policy to all four districts, only sustained and

unplanned interruptions are included to review and improve current reliability performance.

In the event of widespread of power outages, restoration of power needs to be done in stages (steps).

Thus, step restoration sample calculation has been outlined to calculate SAIDI more effectively, by

varying the number of customers restored per stage since the number of customers restored at each stage

is not known in detail. A few causes of power outages have also been identified in Brunei Darussalam

such as weather – related causes (lightning and thunderstorms), faulty equipment, and animal contacts.

Furthermore, collection of more data (five years of data) would enable the study of the reliability trend of

SAIDI and SAIFI numbers. Specific power outages could also be identified such as problematic circuits

or failing of specific equipment, thus, further corrective action can be taken to benchmark DES to other

utilities worldwide.

This power failure may affect a large number of people and may greatly impact businesses,

manufacturers, hospitals and cause economic losses; thus, improving power reliability is of utmost

importance.

9. FUTURE WORK

From the SAIDI and SAIFI calculations developed for Brunei Darussalam, a few measures can be taken

to improve the accuracy of the calculations, such as having a more detailed record of power outages. DES

is currently doing a remarkable job at recording power outages across Brunei Darussalam; further

addition on the number of customers restored at each restoration stage would greatly increase the

accuracy of SAIDI and SAIFI calculation.

One of the causes of prolonged power outages in Brunei Darussalam is due to the delay in mobilization of

personnel to affected areas. Further design improvement of distribution systems using Smart Grid

technologies [13] would identify fault location, and enable personnel to reach the affected area faster,

thus, a decrease in time to normalize the power outage [11] and a reduced SAIDI number.

Furthermore, implementation of advanced intelligent real–time communications-based load shedding

schemes can be employed to minimize the number of customers interrupted by matching actual loads to

required loads to be shed [14]. Typically, pre–determined feeders regardless of actual load (based on peak

loading conditions) are selected to shed the required loads.

Assume priority order for load shedding is Feeder 1, Feeder 2, Feeder 3 and finally, Feeder 4. Assume

that the required load shed in stage 1 under frequency is 8 MW. Assuming peak loading for Feeder 1,

Feeder 2, Feeder 3 and Feeder 4 is 2, 3, 5 and 8 MW, respectively. During the requirement for under

frequency load shedding, the actual loading is 1, 2, 3 and 6 MW respectively. This conventional scheme

will result in a total of 12 MW; 4 MW greater than what is necessary. Thus, the utilization of intelligent

load shedding [14] would only select Feeder 2 and Feeder 4 to total 8 MW and unnecessary load shedding

can be avoided and a better SAIDI and SAIFI number achieved.
