„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.
