Abstract: This submission is for a renewal and update of RD25-10. Which updates to PREC-012-2 and PRC-017-1. The purpose of PRC-012-2 is to ensure that remedial action schemes (RAS) do not introduce unintentional or unacceptable reliability risks to the BES. The stated purpose of Reliability Standard PRC-017-1 is to ensure that all RAS are properly designed, meet performance requirements, and are coordinated with other protection systems and to ensure that maintenance and testing programs are developed and misoperations are analyzed and corrected
