Enter Safety Net Transaction

The safety-net process is a manual workaround used when transactions are:

• Delayed.
• Not functional.
• For priority orders.

Qualifying priority orders require immediate notification to ensure that a customer receives electric service in a timely manner.

Safety net requests must be entered by retail providers.

Please download and review ERCOT's safety net process Word document to ensure compliance with market rules.
