TAR NC Implementation Document – Second Edition September 2017
GENERAL – APPLICATION OF THE TAR NC AT
DIFFERENT POINTS ON TRANSMISSION
NETWORK
The scope of the TAR NC is not homogeneous, as it differs with respect to different
types of points. Therefore, the scope of the TAR NC can be explained from two
perspectives: which rule is concerned and which point on the transmission system
is concerned.
‘
Which rule is concerned
’: Article 2(1) envisages applying all of the TAR NC rules by
default to all the points on the transmission network. However, some of its rules have
a ‘limited scope’ and apply only at IPs by default, which is the same scope as the
CAM NC. So the TAR NC rules in fact split into ‘limited scope’ rules and ‘broader
scope’ rules as shown in Figure 2. This Figure shows such a distinction from the
perspective of which TAR NC rule is concerned.
