CAIDI means the electricity consumer average interruption duration index and is measured for each Feeder and is otherwise calculated in the same manner as in the Disclosure Requirements;
CAIDI means the ‘Customer Average Interruption Duration Index’ which is the average time taken for supply to be restored to a customer when an unplanned interruption has occurred, calculated as the sum of the duration of each customer interruption (in minutes), divided by the total number of customer interruptions (SAIDI divided by SAIFI), unless, otherwise, stated CAIDI excludes momentary interruptions. This index is the average duration of an interruption of supply for a Consumer, who experiences the interruptions of supply annually. This index can be calculated for a group of consumers of an area catered by a Sub-Station or a specified area as follows:
CAIDI means the summation of restoration time for each sustained interruption event over the year divided by the number of interrupted customers for each sustained interruption event during the reporting period. Customer Average Interruption Duration Index (CAIDI) provides the average outage duration that any given customer would experience. CAIDI can also be viewed as the average restoration time. CAIDI is measured in units of time, often minutes. CAIDI is calculated in accordance with Standard No. 1366 published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and is summarized as the summation for the year of all restoration time for each sustained interruption event over the year divided by the number of interrupted customers for each sustained interruption event during the reporting period. A sustained interruption event is defined as customers interrupted for more than 5 minutes. For the purpose of this calculation, precautionary outages ordered by management as fire prevention measures are excluded in the CAIDI calculation. However, if the CPUC determines that such precautionary outage was unjustified, the CAIDI from the outage will be included.
