NATIONAL GRID ELECTRICITY TRANSMISSION PLC THE GRID CODE ISSUE 4 REVISION 1 SUMMARY OF CHANGES The changes arise from the implementation of modifications proposed in the following Consultation Paper: D/09 Grid Code Requirements for OC6.6 Low Frequency Demand Disconnection Schemes. Summary of Proposals The intention of the proposals is to provide clarity and consistency for all industry parties in respect of the operation of the Low Frequency Demand Disconnection scheme, following the frequency incident that occurred in May 2008. The categories of Users affected by this revision to the Grid Code are: - Distribution Network Operators A brief description of the proposals is as follows: Clarity has been provided on a number of aspects of Low Frequency Demand Disconnection schemes: o The format of the submission made by the DNOs o The percentage targets for each stage of the scheme o That the scheme should be based on forecast system peak demand data and not historic. For new installed plant (after October 2009), the operating time for the Low Frequency Demand Disconnection scheme must be less than 200mS.

APPENDIX 5 TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS LOW FREQUENCY RELAYS FOR THE AUTOMATIC DISCONNECTION OF SUPPLIES AT LOW FREQUENCY CC.A.5.1 CC.A.5.1.1 LOW FREQUENCY RELAYS The Low Frequency Relays to be used shall have a setting range of 47.0 to 50Hz and be suitable for operation from a nominal AC input of 63.5, 110 or 240V. The following general parameters specify the requirements of approved Low Frequency Relays for automatic installations installed and commissioned after 1 st April 2007 and provide an indication, without prejudice to the provisions that may be included in a Bilateral Agreement, for those installed and commissioned before 1 st April 2007: (a) Frequency settings: 47-50Hz in steps of 0.05Hz or better, preferably 0.01Hz; (b) Operating time: Relay operating time shall not be more than 150 ms; (c) Voltage lock-out: Selectable within a range of 55 to 90% of nominal voltage; (d) Facility stages: One or two stages of Frequency operation; (e) Output contacts: Two output contacts per stage to be capable of repetitively making and breaking for 1000 operations: (f) Accuracy 0.01 Hz maximum error under reference environmental and system voltage conditions. 0.05 Hz maximum error at 8% of total harmonic distortion Electromagnetic Compatibility Level. CC.A.5.2 CC.A.5.2.1 LOW FREQUENCY RELAY VOLTAGE SUPPLIES It is essential that the voltage supply to the Low Frequency Relays shall be derived from the primary System at the supply point concerned so that the Frequency of the Low Frequency Relays input voltage is the same as that of the primary System. This requires either: (a) (b) the use of a secure supply obtained from voltage transformers directly associated with the grid transformer(s) concerned, the supply being obtained where necessary via a suitable automatic voltage selection scheme; or the use of the substation 240V phase-to-neutral selected auxiliary supply, provided that this supply is always derived at the supply point concerned and is never derived from a standby Issue 4 Revision 1 CC - 80 10 th February 2010

supply Generating Unit or from another part of the User System. CC.A.5.3 CC.A.5.3.1 SCHEME REQUIREMENTS The tripping facility should be engineered in accordance with the following reliability considerations: (a) Dependability Failure to trip at any one particular Demand shedding point would not harm the overall operation of the scheme. However, many failures would have the effect of reducing the amount of Demand under low Frequency control. An overall reasonable minimum requirement for the dependability of the Demand shedding scheme is 96%, ie. the average probability of failure of each Demand shedding point should be less than 4%. Thus the Demand under low Frequency control will not be reduced by more than 4% due to relay failure. (b) Outages Low Frequency Demand shedding schemes will be engineered such that the amount of Demand under control is as specified in Table CC.A.5.5.1a and is not reduced unacceptably during equipment outage or maintenance conditions. CC.A.5.3.2 CC.A.5.4 The total operating time of the scheme, including circuit breakers operating time, shall where reasonably practicable, be less than 200 ms. For the avoidance of doubt, the replacement of plant installed prior to October 2009 will not be required in order to achieve lower total scheme operating times. LOW FREQUENCY RELAY TESTING CC.A.5.4.1 Low Frequency Relays installed and commissioned after 1 st January 2007 shall be type tested in accordance with and comply with the functional test requirements for Frequency Protection contained in Energy Networks Association Technical Specification 48-6-5 Issue 1 dated 2005 ENA Protection Assessment Functional Test Requirements Voltage and Frequency Protection. For the avoidance of doubt, Low Frequency Relays installed and commissioned before 1 st January 2007 shall comply with the version of CC.A.5.1.1 applicable at the time such Low Frequency Relays were commissioned. CC.A.5.5 CC.A.5.5.1 SCHEME SETTINGS Table CC.A.5.5.1a shows, for each Transmission Area, the percentage of Demand (based on Annual ACS Conditions) at the time of forecast National Electricity Transmission System peak demand that each Network Operator whose System is connected to the Onshore Transmission System within such Transmission Area shall disconnect by Low Frequency Relays at a range of frequencies. Where a Network Operator s System is connected to the National Electricity Transmission System in more than one Transmission Area, the settings for the Issue 4 Revision 1 CC - 81 10 th February 2010

Transmission Area in which the majority of the Demand is connected shall apply.

The percentage demand at each stage shall be allocated as far as reasonably practicable. The cumulative total percentage demand is a minimum. Issue 4 Revision 1 CC - 82 10 th February 2010

APPENDIX 6 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR CONTINUOUSLY ACTING AUTOMATIC EXCITATION CONTROL SYSTEMS FOR ONSHORE SYNCHRONOUS GENERATING UNITS CC.A.6.1 CC.A.6.1.1 CC.A.6.1.2 CC.A.6.1.3 CC.A.6.2 CC.A.6.2.1 CC.A.6.2.2 CC.A.6.2.3 SCOPE This Appendix sets out the performance requirements of continuously acting automatic excitation control systems for Onshore Synchronous Generating Units that must be complied with by the User. This Appendix does not limit any site specific requirements that may be included in a Bilateral Agreement where in NGET's reasonable opinion these facilities are necessary for system reasons. Where the requirements may vary the likely range of variation is given in this Appendix. It may be necessary to specify values outside this range where NGET identifies a system need, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary NGET may specify in the Bilateral Agreement values outside of the ranges provided in this Appendix 6. The most common variations are in the on-load excitation ceiling voltage requirements and the response time required of the Exciter. Actual values will be included in the Bilateral Agreement. Should a Generator anticipate making a change to the excitation control system it shall notify NGET under the Planning Code (PC.A.1.2(b) and (c)) as soon as the Generator anticipates making the change. The change may require a revision to the Bilateral Agreement. Requirements The Excitation System of an Onshore Synchronous Generating Unit shall include an excitation source (Exciter), a Power System Stabiliser and a continuously acting Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) and shall meet the following functional specification. In respect of Onshore Synchronous Generating Units with a Completion Date on or after 1 January 2009, and Onshore Synchronous Generating Units with a Completion Date before 1 January 2009 subject to a Modification to the excitation control facilities where the Bilateral Agreement does not specify otherwise, the continuously acting automatic excitation control system shall include a Power System Stabiliser (PSS) as a means of supplementary control. The functional specification of the Power System Stabiliser is included in CC.A.6.2.5. Steady State Voltage Control CC.A.6.2.3.1 An accurate steady state control of the Onshore Generating Unit pre-set terminal voltage is required. As a measure of the accuracy of the steady-state voltage control, the Automatic Voltage Regulator shall have static zero frequency gain, sufficient to limit the change in terminal voltage to a drop not exceeding 0.5% of rated terminal voltage, when the Onshore Generating Unit output is gradually changed from zero to rated MVA output at rated voltage, Active Power and Frequency. CC.A.6.2.4 Transient Voltage Control CC.A.6.2.4.1 For a step change from 90% to 100% of the nominal Onshore Generating Unit terminal voltage, with the Onshore Generating Unit on open circuit, the Excitation System response shall have a damped oscillatory characteristic. For this characteristic, the time for the Onshore Generating Unit terminal voltage to first Issue 4 CC - 83 24 th June 2009

OC6.5.11 Pursuant to the provisions of OC1.5.6, the Network Operator will supply to NGET details of the amount of Demand reduction or restoration actually achieved. Issue 4 OC6-7 24 June 2009

OC6.6 OC6.6.1 AUTOMATIC LOW FREQUENCY DEMAND DISCONNECTION Each Network Operator will make arrangements that will enable automatic low Frequency Disconnection of at least: (i) (ii) 60 per cent of its total Demand (based on Annual ACS Conditions) at the time of forecast National Electricity Transmission System peak demand where such Network Operator s System is connected to the National Electricity Transmission System in NGET s Transmission Area 40 per cent of its total Demand (based on Annual ACS Conditions) at the time of forecast National Electricity Transmission System peak where such Network Operator s System is connected to the National Electricity Transmission System in either SPT s or SHETL s Transmission Area in order to seek to limit the consequences of a major loss of generation or an Event on the Total System which leaves part of the Total System with a generation deficit. Where a Network Operator s System is connected to the National Electricity Transmission System in more than one Transmission Area, the figure above for the Transmission Area in which the majority of the Network Operator s Demand is connected shall apply. OC6.6.2 (a) The Demand of each Network Operator which is subject to automatic low Frequency Disconnection will be split into discrete MW blocks. (b) (c) The number, size (% Demand) and the associated low Frequency settings of these blocks, will be as specified in Table CC.A.5.5.1a. NGET will keep the settings under review. The distribution of the blocks will be such as to give a reasonably uniform Disconnection within the Network Operator's System, as the case may be, across all Grid Supply Points. (d) Each Network Operator will notify NGET in writing by calendar week 24 each year of the details of the automatic low Frequency Disconnection on its User System. The information provided should identify, for each Grid Supply Point at the date and time of the annual peak of the National Electricity Transmission System Demand at Annual ACS Conditions (as notified pursuant to OC1.4.2), the frequency settings at which Demand Disconnection will be initiated and amount of Demand disconnected at each such setting. OC6.6.3 OC6.6.4 Where conditions are such that, following automatic low Frequency Demand Disconnection, and the subsequent Frequency recovery, it is not possible to restore a large proportion of the total Demand so disconnected within a reasonable period of time, NGET may instruct a Network Operator to implement additional Demand Disconnection manually, and restore an equivalent amount of the Demand that had been disconnected automatically. The purpose of such action is to ensure that a subsequent fall in Frequency will again be contained by the operation of automatic low Frequency Demand Disconnection. Once an automatic low Frequency Demand Disconnection has taken place, the Network Operator on whose User System it has occurred, will not reconnect until NGET instructs that Network Operator to do so in accordance with OC6.

DATA REGISTRATION CODE DRC.1 DRC.1.1 DRC.1.2 DRC.1.3 DRC.1.4 INTRODUCTION The Data Registration Code ("DRC") presents a unified listing of all data required by NGET from Users and by Users from NGET, from time to time under the Grid Code. The data which is specified in each section of the Grid Code is collated here in the DRC. Where there is any inconsistency in the data requirements under any particular section of the Grid Code and the Data Registration Code the provisions of the particular section of the Grid Code shall prevail. The DRC identifies the section of the Grid Code under which each item of data is required. The Code under which any item of data is required specifies procedures and timings for the supply of that data, for routine updating and for recording temporary or permanent changes to that data. All timetables for the provision of data are repeated in the DRC. Various sections of the Grid Code also specify information which the Users will receive from NGET. This information is summarised in a single schedule in the DRC (Schedule 9). DRC.2 OBJECTIVE The objective of the DRC is to: DRC.2.1 DRC.2.2 List and collate all the data to be provided by each category of User to NGET under the Grid Code.

Detailed Planning Data will be provided to NGET in accordance with PC.4.4, PC.4.5 and PC.A.1.2. Operational Data Operational Data is data which is required by the Operating Codes and the Balancing Codes. Within the DRC, Operational Data is sub-categorised according to the Code under which it is required, namely OC1, OC2, BC1 or BC2. Operational Data is to be supplied in accordance with timetables set down in the relevant Operating Codes and Balancing Codes and repeated in tabular form in the schedules to the DRC. DRC.5 DRC.5.1 PROCEDURES AND RESPONSIBILITIES Responsibility for Submission and Updating of Data In accordance with the provisions of the various sections of the Grid Code, each User must submit data as summarised in DRC.6 and listed and collated in the attached schedules. Issue4 DRC - 2 24 June 2009

DRC.5.2 DRC.5.2.1 DRC.5.2.2 DRC.5.2.3 Methods of Submitting Data Wherever possible the data schedules to the DRC are structured to serve as standard formats for data submission and such format must be used for the written submission of data to NGET. Data must be submitted to the Transmission Control Centre notified by NGET or to such other department or address as NGET may from time to time advise. The name of the person at the User who is submitting each schedule of data must be included. Where a computer data link exists between a User and NGET, data may be submitted via this link. NGET will, in this situation, provide computer files for completion by the User containing all the data in the corresponding DRC schedule. Data submitted can be in an electronic format using a proforma to be supplied by NGET or other format to be agreed annually in advance with NGET. In all cases the data must be complete and relate to, and relate only to, what is required by the relevant section of the Grid Code. DRC.5.2.4 DRC.5.3 DRC.5.3.1 DRC.5.4 DRC.5.4.1 DRC.5.4.2 DRC.5.4.3 Other modes of data transfer, such as magnetic tape, may be utilised if NGET gives its prior written consent. Changes to Users' Data Whenever a User becomes aware of a change to an item of data which is registered with NGET the User must notify NGET in accordance with each section of the Grid Code. The method and timing of the notification to NGET is set out in each section of the Grid Code. Data not Supplied Users and NGET are obliged to supply data as set out in the individual sections of the Grid Code and repeated in the DRC. If a User fails to supply data when required by any section of the Grid Code, NGET will estimate such data if and when, in the NGET's view, it is necessary to do so. If NGET fails to supply data when required by any section of the Grid Code, the User to whom that data ought to have been supplied, will estimate such data if and when, in that User's view, it is necessary to do so. Such estimates will, in each case, be based upon data supplied previously for the same Plant or Apparatus or upon corresponding data for similar Plant or Apparatus or upon such other information as NGET or that User, as the case may be, deems appropriate. NGET will advise a User in writing of any estimated data it intends to use pursuant to DRC.5.4.1 relating directly to that User's Plant or Apparatus in the event of data not being supplied. A User will advise NGET in writing of any estimated data it intends to use pursuant to DRC.5.4.1 in the event of data not being supplied. Issue 4 DRC - 3 24 June 2009

DRC.5.5 DRC.5.5.1 DRC.5.5.2 DRC.6 DRC.6.1 DRC.6.1.1 Substituted Data In the case of PC.A.4 only, if the data supplied by a User does not in NGET s reasonable opinion reflect the equivalent data recorded by NGET, NGET may estimate such data if and when, in the view of NGET, it is necessary to do so. Such estimates will, in each case, be based upon data supplied previously for the same Plant or Apparatus or upon corresponding data for similar Plant or Apparatus or upon such other information as NGET deems appropriate. NGET will advise a User in writing of any estimated data it intends to use pursuant to DRC.5.5.1 relating directly to that User's Plant or Apparatus where it does not in NGET s reasonable opinion reflect the equivalent data recorded by NGET. Such estimated data will be used by NGET in place of the appropriate data submitted by the User pursuant to PC.A.4 and as such shall be deemed to accurately represent the User s submission until such time as the User provides data to NGET s reasonable satisfaction.
