For I-6 and TOU-BIP: Southern California Edison (SCE) will notify customers that an interruption event is underway via the Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) and the dedicated telephone. Upon receipt of this message, please reduce your load according to your contractual requirements.
In the table above both I6 and TOU-BIP interruptible programs are divided into two separate categories. The I6 program is divided into I6-15 (Block K) and I6-30 (Blocks Z, Y, H, G, F, E, D, C, and B) and TOU-BIP is divided into BIP-15 (Block T) and BIP-30 (Blocks R, Q and P). I6-15 and BIP-15 customers must reduce to their contractual levels within 15 minutes of receiving interruptible event notice via RTU and/or dedicated telephone. In the same manner the I6-30 and BIP-30 must reduce to their contractual levels within 30 minutes.
Interruptible customers may not substitute the use of the interruptible website, paging service, e-mail notification service, or SCE toll-free “888” telephone number as an alternative method of receiving SCE notice to interrupt. These services are provided for convenience and are not alternatives to the RTU and dedicated telephone. Failure to answer the call from SCE to interrupt power, therefore, resulting in the customer’s failure to interrupt load, may result in penalties for failing to comply with a notice of interruption, as described in the interruptible tariffs.
Status Bar will be green, when there is no interruption in progress. If there is an Alert, Warning, or Stage 1 emergency, the Status Bar will be yellow. If there is a Stage 2, Stage 3 or Transmission Emergency, the Status Bar will be changed to Red. Click here for detailed explanation of the ISO Notices.
This site will refresh every 5 minutes. It is recommended to “reload” or “refresh” this site often to ensure you are viewing the most recent SCE transmitted information. In rare cases we may experience rapid interruptible information changes, which can delay our manual process of posting to either our Web site or our Program Status phone line. In these situations, every effort will be made to provide you with the most up-to-date information.
