Grid Code Harmonic Compliance Assessment

ETAP combines extensive modeling capabilities with advanced solution algorithms enabling you to undertake a wide range of studies required for grid connection and grid impact analysis of wind parks, PV generation, and other renewable energy power plants. Recurring tasks can easily be automated using etapPY™ scripting tools to streamline the analysis.

ETAP Grid Code Compliance is an analysis module designed to evaluate compliance with utility grid code requirements. The application includes automated harmonic analysis for detailed power quality assessment report demonstrating that the generation facility is designed to comply with the applicable harmonic limits.

Grid Code Harmonic
Recognizing that there are increasing numbers of non-linear loads looking to be connected, grid code regulations governing their connection have been evolving throughout the world. Network owners have adopted industry standards such as IEEE 519, IEC 61000 series, etc., and developed specialized application guides such as ENA Engineering Recommendation G5/5 for harmonic voltage distortion planning and compatibility levels.

Understanding Grid Code, Grid Code Compliance Analysis & Reporting with ETAP

The variable nature of renewable energy introduces power quality concerns, including frequency and voltage control, that may negatively impact the reliable performance of a power system. Grid codes, interconnection, or evacuation criteria must be followed during the proposed system design and continue to maintain compliance under grid-connected operation. ETAP Grid Code is a model-driven solution that includes software tools and control hardware to ensure local grid codes or standards compliance throughout the power system design and operations lifecycle.
