2Scope / Description
This document defines terms for high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission systems and DC stations that utilize electronic power converters to convert between alternating current and direct current. It applies to DC stations that conventionally employ line-commutated converters based on a three-phase bridge connection (two-way), using unidirectional electronic valves such as semiconductor valves. Only the most essential definitions regarding thyristor valves are included herein; a more comprehensive list of terminology for DC transmission valves is provided in standard IEC 60700-2.
