VGB規格 VGB-Standard KKS Identification System for Power Stations, 8th revised edition, 2018
Description
Owing to the national and international standardization process, the KKS Identification System for Power Stations (hereinafter referred to as “KKS”) is being replaced by the RDS-PPR Reference Designation System for Power Plants based on DIN ISO 81346-10. Thus, RDS-PPR is thus considered to be a generally accepted good engineering practice and can be applied in planning, construction, operation and dismantling of energy supply plants and equipment as a an unambiguous identification system.
Existing power plants with identification coding to KKS will not be re-coded to RDS-PPR. Consequently, it will be necessary to continue to apply the KKS system in the event of additions to existing plants and conversion measures, I&C retrofits etc.
Technical progress made over time called for adjustments to the KKS rules. Some examples were added to the KKS guidelines and the KKS keys were updated. The examples given in the KKS guidelines are intended only for explanation of the defined rules.
The KKS Rules as a code of practice consist of the KKS Guidelines and the KKS Keys.
The Application Explanations (VGB-B 106e parts A, B1, B2, B3 and B4 covering general application, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, electrical engineering and process control and instrumentation, 2004) and the Equipment Unit Code and Component Code Reference (VGB-B 105.1, 1989) are not updated any more.
