Article 54 Compliance simulations for type B power park modules

1. Type B power park modules are subject to the compliance simulations in paragraphs 2 to 5. Instead of all or part of those simulations, the power-generating facility owner may use equipment certificates issued by an authorised certifier, which must be provided to the relevant system operator.

2. With regard to the LFSM-O response simulation the following requirements shall apply:

(a) the power park module's capability to modulate active power at high frequency in accordance with Article 13(2) shall be demonstrated;

(b) the simulation shall be carried out by means of high frequency steps and ramps reaching minimum regulating level, taking into account the droop settings and the deadband;

(c) the simulation shall be deemed successful in the event that:

(i)

the simulation model of the power park module is validated against the compliance test for LFSM-O response set out in Article 47(3); and

(ii)

compliance with the requirement laid down in Article 13(2) is demonstrated.

3. With regard to the fast fault current injection simulation the following requirements shall apply:

(a) the power park module's capability to provide fast fault current injection in accordance with the conditions set out in point (b) of Article 20(2) shall be demonstrated;

(b) the simulation shall be deemed successful if compliance with the requirement laid down in point (b) of Article 20(2) is demonstrated.

4. With regard to the fault-ride-through simulation capability of type B power park modules, the following requirements shall apply:

(a) the power park module's capability to ride through faults in accordance with the conditions set out in point (a) of Article 14(3) shall be demonstrated by simulation;

(b) the simulation shall be deemed successful if compliance with the requirement laid down in point (a) of Article 14(3) is demonstrated.

5. The following requirements with regard to the post fault active power recovery simulation shall apply:

(a) the power park module's capability to provide post fault active power recovery in accordance with the conditions set out in Article 20(3) shall be demonstrated;

(b) the simulation shall be deemed successful if compliance with the requirement laid down in Article 20(3) is demonstrated.
