- system concepts;
- operating states of electric power systems;
- failures in electric power systems;
- outages of electric power systems equipment;
- outage occurrences in electric power systems;
- state durations and availability related concepts;
- interruptions in electric power systems;
- selected customer interruption measures;
- bulk electric power system load/energy curtailments;
- bulk electric system failures and measures;
- supply performance measures.
IEC 60050-692:2017 has the status of a horizontal standard in accordance with IEC Guide 108:2006. This terminology is consistent with the terminology developed in the other specialized parts of the IEV.
