Package notes
The CIM dynamic model definitions reflect the most common IEEE or, in the case of wind models, IEC, representations of models as well as models included in some of the transient stability software widely used by utilities.
These dynamic models are intended to ensure interoperability between different vendors’ software products currently in use by electric utility energy companies, utilities, Transmission System Operators (TSOs), Regional Transmission Organizations (RTOs), and Independent System Operators (ISOs). It is important to note that each vendor is free to select its own internal implementation of these models. Differences in vendor results, as long as they are within accepted engineering practice, caused by different internal representations, are acceptable.
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the following modelling conventions are followed:
- limited integrators are of the non-windup type;
- it shall be possible to enter a time constant of zero (where it makes sense).
