Transmission Operator Audit Information
Certain North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Reliability Standards are selected for inclusion in compliance audits based on risk to the reliability of the bulk-power system. Below are Reliability Standards Audit Worksheets (RSAWs) that Texas Reliability Entity, Inc. (Texas RE) uses for compliance audits of NERC-registered Transmission Operators (TOPs).
Texas RE provides these RSAWs for use by TOPs in preparing for audits as well as creating a culture of compliance. Texas RE will provide these RSAWs to a TOP prior to an audit and expect the TOP to provide the requested information as well as the documentation verifying compliance.
Certain entities in the ERCOT Region have entered into a Coordinated Functional Registration (CFR) for the TOP function. For more information, please see Coordinated Functional Registration.
