| 13-9-0658 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should ensure generator life support systems (e.g., radiator fan, oil cooler fan, water transfer pumps, fuel pumps, engine start battery chargers) are on the essential Alternating Current (AC) buss of the generator they serve. |
| 13-9-0660 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should have a plan that is periodically verified for providing portable generators to offices with and without stationary engines. |
| 13-9-0662 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should exercise power generators on a routine schedule in accordance with manufacturer's specifications. For example, a monthly 1 hour engine run on load, and a 5 hour annual run. |
| 13-9-0664 | Network Operators, Service Providers, and Equipment Suppliers should provide indicating type control fuses on the front of the power panels, including smaller distribution panels. |
| 13-9-0668 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Equipment Suppliers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should clearly label the equipment served by each circuit breaker and fuse. |
| 13-9-0669 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should develop and/or provide appropriate emergency procedures for Alternating Current (AC) transfer. |
| 13-9-0671 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should design and implement a preventive maintenance and inspection program for electrical systems. |
| 13-9-0674 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should initiate or continue a modernization program to ensure that outdated power equipment is phased out of plant considering capabilities of smart controllers, local and remote monitoring and control, alarm systems when updating power equipment, and being integrated into engineering and operational strategies. |
| 13-9-0689 | Network Operators, Service Providers, and Public Safety should provide a separate "battery discharge" alarm for all critical infrastructure facilities, and where feasible, periodically (e.g., every 15 minutes) repeat the alarm as long as the condition exists. |
| 13-9-0690 | Network Operators, Property Managers, and Public Safety should consider providing power alarm redundancy so that no single point alarm system failure will lead to a network power outage. |
| 13-9-0694 | Network Operators and Service Providers should check for current flow in cables with AC/DC clamp-on ammeters before removing the associated fuses or opening the circuits during removal projects. |
| 13-9-0695 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should develop and test plans to address situations where normal power backup does not work (e.g., commercial AC power fails, the standby generator fails to start, automatic transfer switch fails). |
| 13-9-0697 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Equipment Suppliers and Public Safety should employ an "Ask Yourself" program as part of core training and daily operations. |
| 13-9-0699 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Equipment Suppliers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should design standby systems (e.g., power) to withstand harsh environmental conditions. |
| 13-9-0701 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should provide security for portable generators. |
| 13-9-0750 | Equipment Suppliers should provide a mechanism for feature activation or deactivation that is not service impacting to end-users (e.g., avoid re-boot, re-start or re- initialization). |
| 13-9-0758 | Network Operators, Service Providers and Public Safety should upon restoration of service in the case of an outage where 9-1-1 call completion is affected, make/request multiple test calls to the affected PSAP(s) to ensure proper completion. |
| 13-9-0760 | Network Operators, Service Providers, and Public Safety should maintain records that accurately track the diversity of internal wiring for office synchronization, including timing leads and power. |
| 13-9-0773 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should perform annual capacity evaluation of power equipment, and perform periodic scheduled maintenance, including power alarm testing. |
| 13-9-0774 | Network Operators, Service Providers, Equipment Suppliers, and Public Safety should provide warning signs to indicate precautions to be taken when powering on circuits that require special procedures |
