Transmission of a definition of NB by NB — MSB view

Preconditions

• The
  • Overview of the metering time period definition of the NB or
  • Overview of the switching time definitions of the NB or
  • Overview of the power curve definitions of the NB is available to the LF and MSB.

Results

• The LF can trace a definition assigned to a location (e.g. the LF can trace a metering time period definition of the NB assigned to a market location).
• The MSB can set up a configuration for a location for which a definition is required.
• In the case of the order placement of a configuration for which a definition is required:
  • The LF can carry out the use case „Order placement of a configuration from the LF to NB“ (e.g. for ordering a configuration for which a metering time period definition of the NB is required).
  • The NB can carry out the use case „Order placement of a configuration from the NB or LF to MSB“ (e.g. for ordering a configuration for which a metering time period definition of the NB is required).

Further requirements

• The NB transmits definitions with the highest version number for each time period.
• For a time period, the definition with the highest version number is valid.
• On first transmission, all definitions used are to be sent in their respective valid version. This also applies when they are rolled out for the following years for the first time.
• The definition of the NB must always be specified for a complete calendar year. In the case of corrections, only the corrected definition for the entire calendar year is to be sent.
• In the case of the metering time period definition of NB:
  • A metering time period definition of NB must also be transmitted by NB to the final customer in his role as LF if the final customer assumes the role of LF within the grid usage settlement, insofar as these provisions are applicable to him accordingly.
  • If a metering time period definition of NB is communicated to MSB as part of the minimum parameters in the use case “Start of metering point operation” (WiM part 1) that MSB has not received in advance via the use case “Transmission of a definition of NB by NB”, the energy must be recorded in one register at the metering location(s) and the associated market location for the metering time period usage purpose “grid usage”.

Trigger

• A definition already transmitted has changed or
• a definition has been newly added to the corresponding overview or
• the NB has created definitions for the following year.

Runs beforehand: Complaint about a definition of the NB from LF to NB, Complaint about a definition of the NB from MSB to NB, Transmission of the overview of the definitions of the NB by the NB — these processes name the one shown here in their result.

First message

NB sends “Definition of the NB” (step 2). From here on, it is the turn of the party involved on this page.

Objective

The LF and MSB know the

• Metering time definitions of NB or
• Switching time definitions of NB or
• Power curve definitions of NB
