Voltage Control Policy: Proposals for a Voltage Control Policy from CLNR Learning
Overview
This document describes the proposed approach to voltage control on Northern Powergrid’s HV and LV distribution network. The document will be appropriate for adoption in part or full by other Distribution Network Operators (DNO).
The purpose of this document is to propose an approach to voltage control on HV and LV networks. For clarity, voltages at EHV and 132kV are not covered within this document as they were out of the scope of the CLNR project.
This document ensures that the requirements with respect to the Electricity Act 1989 (as amended) (the Act), the Electricity Safety, Quality, and Continuity (ESQC) Regulations 2002 (as amended), the Electricity at Work (EAW) Regulations 1989, the Distribution License conditions and the Distribution Code, are adhered to, by laying out the way in which Northern Powergrid will develop efficient, co-ordinated and economical HV and LV networks.
