PPL Electric Utilities Corporation<br />
In 2005, PPL provided service to its customers at a performance level that<br />
was better than the standards established by the <strong>Commission</strong>. CAIDI and SAIFI<br />
were also better than the benchmarks: 125 minutes for CAIDI, compared to a<br />
benchmark of 145 minutes and 0.96 interruptions for SAIFI, compared to a<br />
benchmark of 0.98. All three indices improved from 2004.<br />
One major event occurred in PPL’s service territory during 2005. The<br />
calculations for the reliability indices excluded outage data related to this event,<br />
which was approved by the <strong>Commission</strong>.<br />
January 6-16, 2005; snow, sleet and freezing rain; 238,154 customer<br />
service interruptions.<br />
For the 2005 calendar year, PPL filed seven outage reports pursuant to 52<br />
Pa. Code § 67.1, including one for the major event discussed above.<br />
