The Western Electric rules are decision rules in statistical process control for detecting out-of-control or non-random conditions on control charts. [1] Locations of the observations relative to the control chart control limits (typically at ±3 standard deviations) and centerline indicate whether the process in question should be investigated for assignable causes.
On August 10, 1996, the western electric grid experienced another massive blackout. [6] Bonneville Power Administration had failed to adequately clear their right-of-way, and multiple lines arced to nearby vegetation. [2]: 47 At 2:06 p.m., the Big Eddy-Ostrander line flashed and grounded to a tree. At 2:52 p.m., the John Day–Marion line (also ...
