Appendix A
Equipment Installed at Substations
The first column of the table shows the name by which FPL
refers to the substations. The second column, “plot plan,”
depicts the year the first plot plan was created and the number
of transformers shown on that plot plan. Generally, FPL
initially installed fewer transformers on a substation than were
depicted on the plot plan.134 The third column provides the ER
for which FPL seeks an ITC. That column is further broken down
into four subcolumns: (1) The ER number; (2) the date
approved;135 (3) the amount authorized; and (4) how the money was
expended.136
134 For example, Mr. Veronee explained:
Again, on the plot plan we lay the [Alva] substation out for
an ultimate two transformer station. Our distribution
planning group said, you know, that we needed to buy this
piece of property and the ultimate development of this
substation.
Mr. Veronee explained that FPL always planned, designed, and
intended the Alva substation to have a second transformer, but
“It just took those seven or eight years for the load to grow in
the area for reliability to require us to add that second
transformer.” His testimony was generally consistent with the
other substations shown on our table.
135 The ER’s contain numerous areas for signatures.
Typically, the ER was not signed by all of the individuals at the
same time. Accordingly, we have listed the year(s) during which
the ER was signed.
