October 31 - Sun storm causes problems for Swedish
power system. The solar storm has caused technical
glitches in Sweden's power system in the past few
days and may be to blame for a blackout that affected
50,000 people on Thursday, October 30.
Information Notice No. 90-42: FAILURE OF ELECTRICAL POWER EQUIPMENT
DUE TO SOLAR MAGNETIC DISTURBANCES
Specific events occurred at the Three Mile Island Unit 1, Hope Creek Unit 1, and Salem Unit 1
nuclear power plants. inspection of the generator
step-up transformer severe overheating, melted
low
-voltage service connections in phases A and C,
and insulation discoloration in phase B. On
September 19, at Salem Unit 2 nuclear power
plant, a second solar storm damaged the generator
step-up transformer. Sep 1990

Challenges
GMD has more impact on Northern Portion of the Interconnection
Defining GIC Data Reporting Requirements
All of WECC?
Portions of WECC?
All elements of the Bulk-Power System (BPS)?
Portions of the BPS?
Transmission Lines 200kV and above?
Transformers with HV grounded-wye windings 200 kV and above?
Additional details are needed in order to completely define new data
reporting requirements
GIC Data Conversion between Software Packages
PSLF, PSS/E, PowerWorld have different input data requirements
Needs
GIC studies should be performed using Wide Area Models
GIC Data needs to be available and shared between Entities
GIC Blocking in one Area impacts GIC currents in adjacent Areas
