deliberately taken out of service at a selected time,
usually for purposes of construction, maintenance or
repair.
A key test to determine whether an outage should be
classified as forced or scheduled is as follows: If it is
possible to defer the outage, it is a scheduled outage;
otherwise it is a forced outage. Deferring an outage
may be desirable, for example, to prevent overload of
other facilities or an interruption of service to customers.
