Abstract

This paper addresses the uses of the dispatcher training simulator (DTS) at PECO Energy, USA. The primary applications of the simulator are discussed from a users' point of view rather than the technical details that describe its internal workings. Topics addressed are dispatcher training, engineering studies, root cause analysis investigations (why undesirable things happened) and the use of the DTS as a public relations and confidence building tool. A discussion of the DTS training environment and general training philosophy is included along with a step-by-step progression through the development of a typical training exercise. A section is included that recommends changes in the implementation of the DTS along with a "lessons learned" discussion. A sample DTS lesson plan is included.
