Looking for information

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Electric Utilities and Y2K : One Thread

Hello, everybody. I'm putting together a presentation on the effects of the year 2000 problem on all aspects of utilities. While I have found a wealth of general information, it has been hard to find specifics.

What I'm looking for is this: Within a T&D system, a power plant, circuit breaker, SCADA system, etc..... where are the best places to look for y2k problems? And why/how are they affected by the millenium bug? What are the consequences if they are not fixed? Severe? Not so severe? I'm looking for any kind of technical information I can find. The voltage/frequency fluctuation discussion on this site a couple of days ago is a good example of what I'm looking for.

Any information anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Matt
