1378-2022 is a technical standard for commutated converter (LCC) high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) converter stations and associated transmission systems, presented as a redline document for easier review of changes. It addresses the engineering and performance considerations that matter in power transmission projects using line-commutated converter technology. For utilities, designers, and procurement teams, this standard helps support consistent specifications, safer system integration, and clearer compliance expectations across HVDC station and transmission work.

Overview of 1378-2022

This standard focuses on the design and application context of LCC HVDC converter stations and the connected transmission systems that support bulk power transfer. 1378-2022 is relevant to projects where alternating current is converted to direct current and back again through commutated converter equipment. In practice, it helps define a common technical basis for equipment coordination, station interfaces, and system-level requirements, making it useful when reviewing engineering documents, comparing vendor offerings, or checking conformity in power and energy applications.

Typical use cases

Typical use cases include planning and specifying HVDC converter stations, evaluating associated transmission equipment, and reviewing engineering requirements for long-distance or high-capacity power transfer. The standard may also be used during design verification, specification writing, and project procurement for line-commutated converter installations. It is especially relevant where operators need consistent guidance for converter station integration, transmission system compatibility, and related performance expectations in utility-scale power network work.

Why it matters

In HVDC projects, clear technical requirements help reduce integration risk and support reliable operation. 1378-2022 matters because it provides a structured reference for design control, system compatibility, and specification consistency in LCC converter station applications. Using a recognized standard can also improve procurement clarity, support testing and acceptance activities, and help teams align on expectations for performance and safety. The redline format can be particularly helpful when tracking revisions and assessing the impact of updates.
