This is a guide for the validation of software models used to study power generators for power system studies. For the purposes of this guide, validation is a procedure and a set of acceptance criteria that can be referenced by users of the models who may not have intimate knowledge of the models' contents to confirm that the models produce acceptable results and provide the intended response(s). The validation procedure can also be used for identifying data errors or inconsistencies before and after assembly of generator software models with the network models. The guide covers generator models that can be either generic or user written models. The guide covers power system analysis such as steady-state, short circuit, harmonic, reliability, motor starting, protection coordination, dynamic stability, Electromagnetic Transients Program (EMTP) limited to power generator. The guide also covers the validation of generators and associated equipment models that are integrated with the transmission and distribution networks. The guide does not cover verification procedures or methods for developing and testing of generator software models, nor does it cover verification of generator software models against field measurements and other types of site or factory tests. For this guide, the purpose of verification is to verify that a model accurately represents real-time responses.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
