DESIGN TARGET · NOT MEASURED PERFORMANCE

Figures on this page are engineering design targets and reference-architecture values, not measured results from operating hardware. They state what the design is being engineered to achieve. Verified performance data will replace them as systems are built and tested. Nothing here should be relied upon as a performance warranty.

Design basis
STEP-UP

Generator to transmission

Net output steps up to transmission voltage at the point of common coupling. Interface behaviour must satisfy the interconnection study before anything else.

AUXILIARY

House load distribution

Cryoplant, pumps, vacuum, and I&C draw from house power. Auxiliary load is a substantial fraction of gross output and is engineered explicitly.

PULSED

Magnet and heating supplies

Pulsed loads present a stiff, fast-changing demand that conventional plant electrical design does not anticipate. Supply design and grid interface both account for it.

RIDE-THROUGH

Transient tolerance

Grid disturbances and plant pulsed events must not cascade into a trip. Ride-through is specified, not assumed.

Interfaces

Interfaces power conversion on the generation side and the utility at the point of common coupling. All protective relaying, load state, and interconnect compliance data report to the supervisory layer.
