    We have been working with a vendor partner for years in outage predictions.  An AI model was built using “back-casting” that starts with equipment-based feeder outages (work ticket data).  From there it looks backwards and compiles device readings from the feeder to build the predictive model.  Alerts are issued via email and stored in our data lake for consumption from analytics applications.

    Subject: Power Quality – Outage Prediction

    Hey all UAI members.   Our teams are working on new capabilities to predict power outages and loose neutrals with a focus on first level transformers utilizing AMI data.  We would hope to scale into outage predictions for the larger network but currently are trying to keep things simple.

    Have any of you had the opportunity to successfully implement such a program.  If so what are the results?    Would be very interested to speak to any of you in the community that may already have experience with this.   Hope you all are doing well after the cold weather if you had to deal with that in your respective territories and appreciate the feedback that this community always has for these kinds of questions.
