1. Protection performance and constraints
1.1 Functional performance
1.1.1 Performance requirements for EHV transmission and interconnection networks
The size of modern generating sets means that they have to be connected to the highest voltage networks:
400 kV in France and most other European countries;
500 or 750/765 kV in the United States and Canada.
These networks are mainly used for power transmission and interconnection.

CIGRE (Conseil International des Grands Réseaux Électriques): one of the world's leading organizations in the field of high-voltage electricity. It covers technical, economic, environmental, organizational and regulatory aspects. The Biennial Conference, held every even-numbered year in Paris (end of August), attracts some 3,000 delegates from 5 continents. Some 400 reports on all CIGRE themes are discussed.
