Common Information Model West Midlands

Common Information Model (CIM) for 132kV, 66kV, 33kV, and 11kV in the West Midlands generated by the NGED Integrated Network Model (INM). For each Grid Supply Point (GSP) there exists an Equipment Profile (EQ) and Geographic Location profile (GL), and two Diagram Layout profile files (one for 132kV and one for 33kV). The EQ describes the equipment in the power system model, and the GL profile is a geographical data instance file which contains GIS data, and the DL profiles provide schematic layouts at different voltages.
