Abstract
Exceptional weather events and conditions such as extreme wildfire ignition danger have caused some utilities to practice modification of protection settings to mitigate wildfire ignition and maximize safety. The most extreme example of this is a decision to fully de-energize circuits until dangerous conditions have passed. This practice in California for wildfire prevention is called Public Safety Power Shut-off (PSPS).
