„Reference Designation System for Power Plants“<br />
– abbreviated RDS-PP –<br />
is the new designation system for power plants and<br />
related components.<br />
RDS-PP is an up-<strong>to</strong>-date replacement for the well-established<br />
<strong>KKS</strong> designation system. It offers a set of improvements<br />
and extensions which meet <strong>to</strong>day’s requirements for<br />
designation of power plant components. Opposite the <strong>KKS</strong>,<br />
RDS-PP was developed further in view of the designation of<br />
new types of generating units, e.g. decentralized generating<br />
plants.<br />
With respect <strong>to</strong> basic and specific structuring principles,<br />
the new designation system is based on international standards.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>VGB</strong> Working Group “Reference Designation and<br />
Plant Documentation“ have a significant contribution in<br />
the development of RDS-PP and respectively the underlying<br />
national and international standards.
