Regulations and guidelines for system operation

This webpage will be updated as new revisions of system operation regulations and new guidelines are prepared and translated into English.

System operation concerns the regulation of system operation and responsibilities related to system operation and also operational reserves, operational procedures, operational planning, staff training and emergency preparedness, requirements for control equipment in coltrol centres and requirements for exchange of operational measurements (including real-time measurements and operational status). Furthermore, the regulations for system operation set the requirements for handling emergency preparedness situations and system disturbances, e.g. frequency load shedding and disconnection of electricity generation.

Please note that in case of any discrepancies between original Danish versions and translations, the Danish version of the text applies.
