CONSOLIDATED AREA FAULT REDUCTION PROGRAMME

NEEDS STATEMENT In addition to planned, corrective and reactive maintenance we will embark on a programme that we titled ‘consolidated area fault reduction programme’. The intention with this programme of works is to focus on areas with poor service levels and a poor experience of Vector’s electricity network and to address issues in a consolidated manner - in other words rather than undertaking reactive repair and reactive maintenance in such areas, a consolidated effort will be undertaken in predetermined areas to have a large shutdown and then undertake the reactive repairs that are required but also repair all other outstanding defects in the specific area in on go, to reduce the number of outages and, to improve service levels in a consolidated and coordinated effort repair effort. Areas with poor service levels will form the target of this programme of works.

TARGETED OUTCOMES

CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE

SAFETY

RELIABILITY

RESILIENCE

OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY

CYBER SECURITY AND PRIVACY

OPTIONS CONSIDERED Options to address the need identified above have been assessed and are summarised in the following table.

DESCRIPTION

DISCUSSION OF OPTION

ESTIMATED COST (NPV IF APPLICABLE)

STATUS

Option 1: Business as usual – no additional investment

Continue with current level of investment to control vegetation. This option will not address the existing service level performance gaps and the network will continue to be impacted by vegetation and in light of the prediction that storms and high winds will increase such gaps in the service level will increase As society becomes more dependent on technology the expectation is that the tolerance for loss of power and poor service levels will reduce

Rejected

Option 2: Proactively identify areas which has poor service levels and undertake a consolidated effort to repair all faults in the targeted area
