5 PACI RAS Overview PACI RAS system monitors the 500kV Transmission System within PG&E, detecting line outages and taking appropriate remedial actions based on the RAS tables The IRAS algorithm a load and generation dropping scheme is one possible mitigation action defined in the table. IRAS mitigation is used for specific contingencies on the following paths: o o o COI (Path 66) California Oregon Intertie Path 15 The transmission corridor consisting of: Gates Panoche #1 and #2 230kV lines Gates Gregg 230kV line Gates McCall 230kV line Los Banos Gates #1 and #3 500kV lines Los Banos Midway #2 500kV line Path 26 The transmission corridor consisting of: Midway Vincent #1 & #2 500kV lines Midway Whirlwind 500kV line 5 Preliminary and pre-decisional 5

The two 60kV CBs at Mosher for Lockeford #1 line termination is now included in part of PACI RAS. Controller signals are sent to Mosher 60kV and Stagg 230kV (CB212 and CB222 already part of LG5) simultaneously. To protect the system from severe thermal overloads. Telemetry is sent from Mosher to the controllers at SFCC (San Francisco Control Center) and VGCC (Vacaville Grid Control Center) and action sent from the SFCC and VGCC PACIRAS controllers to Mohser (in addition to Stagg) to shed load.
