Background

Status:	Approved
Date Posted:	May 1, 2007
Sponsor:	Trip Doggett on behalf of TPTF
Urgent:	No
Sections:	2.1, 3.5, 3.5.1, 3.5.2
Description:	This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) clarifies the concept of "Hub Bus" allowing for direct assignment of Electrical Buses to a Hub and clarifies the number of Hub Buses in a Hub based on operating model Electrical Bus configuration.
Reason:	Currently, the "Hub Bus" is not a modeling concept that lends itself to the node based model, and does not provide the linkages from Hub to Electrical Bus in the manner envisioned in the initial drafting of the Protocols. This revision seeks to concretely define the relationship from Electrical Bus to Hub Bus and from Hub Bus to Hub.
