About This Item
IEEE P2749/D6, Dec 2022 is a draft recommended practice focused on risk identification and evaluation for smart power distribution systems. It addresses the technical challenge of assessing where operational, control, and integration risks may arise in digitally enabled distribution networks. For organizations working across computing and processing as well as power and energy applications, this document can help structure early-stage analysis and improve decision-making around system design, deployment, and ongoing reliability.
IEEE P2749/D6, Dec 2022 overview
This draft recommended practice is aimed at guiding how risks are identified and evaluated in smart power distribution environments. IEEE P2749/D6, Dec 2022 is relevant where distribution assets, communications, control functions, and computing elements interact. Its purpose is generally to support a more consistent approach to analyzing technical vulnerabilities, dependencies, and potential failure conditions before they affect system performance. As a draft document, it is especially useful for review, evaluation, and alignment during development or planning work.
Typical use cases
Typical applications may include utility distribution planning, smart grid integration projects, and engineering reviews for networked control systems. IEEE P2749/D6, Dec 2022 can be useful when evaluating sensors, automation equipment, monitoring platforms, and communication links that support distribution operations. It may also inform risk assessment workflows for projects involving advanced metering, remote switching, or other computing-enabled functions in power distribution. The focus is on understanding how technical interactions can influence operational stability and resilience.
Why this standard matters
This standard matters because smart distribution systems depend on multiple connected technologies, and weak risk evaluation can lead to inconsistent design choices or overlooked failure points. IEEE P2749/D6, Dec 2022 supports clearer assessment practices, which can improve compliance efforts, procurement reviews, testing plans, and design control. For teams managing distribution infrastructure, a structured approach to risk identification helps reduce uncertainty and may improve confidence in system performance, safety, and operational continuity.
