Jordan Troublefield completed conversion of the Excel-based load profile decision tree to Word, originally in Appendix D of the load profile guide.
Examination of the language used in Excel and considerations for future enhancements led to holding off on the initial review.
The team began reviewing the document as of an October handoff, aiming to incorporate changes collaboratively during the meeting.
There was discussion on how best to organize and present definitions and sections for ease of navigation.
Specific attention was given to differentiating definitions such as 'assignment year' for residential versus business profiles.
Multiple approaches were discussed for easier visualization of profile types, segments, and groups, including potential use of tables or matrices.
Identified areas where definitions might be redundant due to the existence of references elsewhere, such as protocols, and discussed potential elimination.
Emphasized need for iterative review, focusing on key definitions and user navigation.
Decision to review document during a future meeting, with emphasis on posting the current version and further defining segment definitions.
Conclusion
The team will continue to modify and streamline definitions, using a more visual or matrix-style approach for clarity.
A future meeting will focus on more concentrated review, aiming for collaborative in-person engagement to align efforts.
