Partner with mc2:
Perform a Physical Security risk assessment and comply with requirements R1 and R2 in CIP-014-1 standard. Partner with leading experts in the field to perform the following analysis:
- CIP-014-1, Requirement R1: identify substations that, if damaged, could result in widespread instability, uncontrolled separation, or Cascading. Our comprehensive modeling methodology is based load flow and dynamic simulation.
- CIP-014-1, Requirement R2: review your list of critical substations.
- CIP-014-1, Requirement R5: develop a comprehensive Physical Security Plan to mitigate the risk.
Understanding CIP-014-1 Physical Security Standard
In a nutshell, a comprehensive risk assessment must be performed on applicable transmission substations. The first step is to identify transmission substations that, if damaged, could result in widespread instability, uncontrolled separation, or Cascading. Deficiencies identified in the analysis must be addressed with a Physical Security Plan. The standard requires an independent third party review or the risk assessment and corrective action plan.
Is the standard difficult to follow?
