About This Item
IEEE 2745.2-2021 is a technical guide focused on the terminology used for unified power flow controllers built with modular multilevel converters. It helps define a consistent vocabulary for engineers working with power electronics, grid control, and related components and systems. By clarifying the terms used around this technology, IEEE 2745.2-2021 supports clearer communication in design, documentation, procurement, and specification work within power, energy, and industrial applications.
IEEE 2745.2-2021 overview
This standard addresses the naming and meaning of terms associated with unified power flow controller technology using modular multilevel converter arrangements. As a terminology document, it is intended to support accurate interpretation of technical material rather than prescribe operating performance. In practice, IEEE 2745.2-2021 can be useful where teams need a shared language for system architecture, converter functions, and control-related discussion. That makes it relevant to specification writing, engineering reviews, and consistency across project documents.
Typical use cases
IEEE 2745.2-2021 may be used when preparing specifications, drafting technical reports, or reviewing designs for power flow control equipment in transmission and grid-support applications. It is particularly relevant to teams working with modular multilevel converter-based systems, including control engineers, equipment suppliers, and utility or industrial project groups. The terminology can also help align communication during system integration, acceptance testing, and documentation of components, circuits, and operational concepts tied to unified power flow controller technology.
Why this standard matters
Clear terminology reduces ambiguity in a technology area where control behavior, converter structure, and system roles can be described in different ways. IEEE 2745.2-2021 helps improve consistency across contracts, engineering documentation, and procurement language, which can reduce misinterpretation and rework. For organizations involved in power electronics and grid applications, that consistency supports better design control, easier specification review, and more reliable communication between manufacturers, operators, and technical teams.
