Automating and Quality Controlling Grid Connection Studies

Electrical engineering tasks, including grid connection and design reviews, demand substantial and continuous effort to ensure compliance with regulatory and functional standards. For instance, a grid connection application must satisfy both AEMO DMAT and GPS requirements, along with the specific functional needs of the project. Managing these requirements can be challenging during the design phase, as even minor changes to components or layouts can impact the entire electrical system and must be validated against DMAT and GPS standards. This process can be time-consuming without automated checks.

This webinar will present an automated workflow, inspired by industries with rigorous certification processes like aerospace and automotive, which systematically maps out requirements and tracks them through automated quality control procedures. This workflow links requirements to the model components that implement them, the code that validates them, and ultimately generates documentation showing the results. We will demonstrate this using Simscape Electrical, though the workflow is adaptable to any power system model and compatible with AEMO-recommended packages.
