Abstract

Electric utility outage management is performed by determining an interconnection model of an electric utility power circuit, (790) the power circuit comprising power circuit components (700-713), determining information indicative of weather susceptibility of the power circuit components, determining a weather prediction, and determining a predicted maintenance parameter based on the interconnection model, the weather susceptibility information, and the weather prediction.
