HVDC Grid Systems and connected Converter Stations - Guideline and Parameter Lists for Functional Specifications - Part 1: Guidelines

1.1 General These Guidelines and Parameter Lists to Functional Specifications describe specific functional requirements for HVDC Grid Systems. The terminology "HVDC Grid Systems" is used here describing HVDC systems for power transmission having more than two converter stations connected to a common d.c. circuit. While this document focuses on requirements, that are specific for HVDC Grid Systems, some requirements are considered applicable to all HVDC systems in general, i.e. including point-to-point HVDC systems. Existing IEC, Cigré or other documents relevant have been used for reference as far as possible. Corresponding to electric power transmission applications, this document is applicable to high voltage systems, i.e. .only nominal d.c. voltages equal or higher than 50 kV with respect to earth are considered in this document. NOTE While the physical principles of d.c. networks are basically voltage independent, the technical options for designing equipment get much wider with lower d.c. voltage levels, e.g. in case of converters or switchgear. Both parts have the same outline and headlines to aid the reader. 1.2 About the Present Release The present release of the Guidelines and Parameter Lists for Functional Specifications describes technical guidelines and specifications for HVDC Grid Systems which are characterized by having exactly one single connection between two converter stations, often referred to as radial systems. When developing the requirements for radial systems, care is taken not to build up potential show-stoppers for meshed systems. Meshed HVDC Grid Systems can be included into this specification at a later point in time. The Guidelines and Parameter List to the Functional Specification of HVDC Grid Systems cover technical aspects of - Coordination of HVDC Grid and a.c. Systems - HVDC Grid System Characteristics - HVDC Grid System Control - HVDC Grid System Protection - Models and Validation - Beyond the present scope, the following aspects are proposed for future work: - AC/DC converter stations - HVDC Grid System Equipment - HVDC Grid System Integration Tests

Sistemi visokonapetostnega enosmernega omrežja in priključene pretvorniške postaje - Smernice in seznam parametrov za funkcijsko specifikacijo - 1. del: Smernice

Te smernice za funkcionalne specifikacije opisujejo določene funkcionalne zahteve za sisteme omrežja HVDC. Terminologija »sistemi omrežja HVDC« se tu uporablja za opis sistemov HVDC za prenos električne energije, ki imajo več kot dve pretvorniški postaji priključeni na običajen enosmerni tokokrog.
Čeprav se ta dokument osredotoča na zahteve, ki so značilne za sisteme omrežja HVDC, nekatere zahteve veljajo za vse sisteme HVDC na splošno, vključno s sistemi HVDC od točke do točke. Kot referenca so bili po možnosti uporabljeni obstoječe specifikacije, dokumenti Cigré ali drugi ustrezni dokumenti.
Ustrezno z aplikacijami prenosa električne energije se ta dokument uporablja za visokonapetostne sisteme, torej so v tem dokumentu upoštevane zgolj nazivne enosmerne napetosti, ki so enake ali višje od 50 kV glede na zemljo.
Opomba: Čeprav so po fizikalnih načelih omrežja enosmernega toka načeloma neodvisna od napetosti, so tehnične možnosti oblikovanja opreme večje pri nizkih ravneh napetosti enosmernega toka, npr. pri pretvornikih ali stikalnih napravah.
Ta 1. del bo treba prebrati v povezavi z 2. delom »Seznama parametrov«, za katere se vzporedno zažene predlog za nove delovne postavke.

Introduction

HVDC Grid Systems are a new field of technology. There are very few systems with a small number of

converter stations in operation; some more are in execution or in detailed planning.

The Guidelines and Parameter Lists to Functional Specifications are presented featuring planning,

specification and execution of multi-vendor HVDC Grid Systems in Europe. Being elaborated by a team of

experts from leading manufacturers of HVDC technology, Transmission System Operators (TSO's), Academia

and Institutions in Europe, the present document provides a commonly agreed basis for an open market of

compatible equipment and solutions for HVDC Grid Systems. Executing such systems and gaining operational

experience is seen an important prerequisite for developing corresponding technical standards in the future.

By elaborating this document, special care has been taken to as far as possible describe the requirements in a

technologically independent way. In order to achieve that, a function of interest is described by a

comprehensive set of parameters. The parameters are selected based on a systematic analysis of physical

phenomena relevant to achieve the requested functionality. The physical phenomena are categorized in order

to show the mutual dependence of the individual parameters and ensure completeness of the physical aspects

to be considered. Based on a clearly defined common language describing the functionalities requested,

existing technologies can be applied or new dedicated technical solutions can be developed.

Reflecting the early stage of technology, these Guidelines and Parameter Lists to Functional Specifications

need comprehensive explanations and background information for the technical parameters. This dual

character of the content will be represented by two corresponding parts:

• Part I “Guidelines” containing the explanations and the background information in context with the

Parameter Lists.

• Part II “Parameter Lists” containing the essential lists of parameters and values describing properties of

the a.c. respectively d.c. system (operating conditions) and parameters describing the performance of the

newly installed component (performance requirements).

1 Scope
1.1 General

These Guidelines and Parameter Lists to Functional Specifications describe specific functional requirements

for HVDC Grid Systems. The terminology “HVDC Grid Systems” is used here describing HVDC systems for

power transmission having more than two converter stations connected to a common d.c. circuit.

While this document focuses on requirements, that are specific for HVDC Grid Systems, some requirements

are considered applicable to all HVDC systems in general, i.e. including point-to-point HVDC systems. Existing

IEC, Cigré or other documents relevant have been used for reference as far as possible.

Corresponding to electric power transmission applications, this document is applicable to high voltage

systems, i.e. .only nominal d.c. voltages equal or higher than 50 kV with respect to earth are considered in this

document.

NOTE While the physical principles of d.c. networks are basically voltage independent, the technical options for

designing equipment get much wider with lower d.c. voltage levels, e.g. in case of converters or switchgear.

Both parts have the same outline and headlines to aid the reader.
1.2 About the Present Release

The present release of the Guidelines and Parameter Lists for Functional Specifications describes technical

guidelines and specifications for HVDC Grid Systems which are characterized by having exactly one single

connection between two converter stations, often referred to as radial systems. When developing the

requirements for radial systems, care is taken not to build up potential show-stoppers for meshed systems.

Meshed HVDC Grid Systems can be included into this specification at a later point in time.

The Guidelines and Parameter List to the Functional Specification of HVDC Grid Systems cover technical

aspects of
• Coordination of HVDC Grid and a.c. Systems
• HVDC Grid System Characteristics
• HVDC Grid System Control
• HVDC Grid System Protection
• Models and Validation
• Beyond the present scope, the following aspects are proposed for future work:
• AC/DC converter stations
• HVDC Grid System Equipment
• HVDC Grid System Integration Tests
