1. CHAPTER 1 - KKS-INTRODUCTION
(Identification System for Power Stations

1.1. Purpose and Area of application

The power plant identification system is applied to clearly identify plants, systems, parts and
components to their purpose, type and location.
The contents are in accordance with "KKS identification systems for Power Stations" issued by
VGB Kraftwerkstechnik GmbH Essen.
This document is intended to be an identification aid only. It contains no binding information
about scope of supply

1.2. Requirements
In order to perform the set tasks the identification system must be capable of satisfying
the following requirements:

• Uniform identification for all types of power stations and any connected processes

• Sufficient capacity and detail for identification of all systems, components and structures

• Sufficient capacity for extension to accommodate new technologies

• Consistent identification for planning, licensing, construction, operation, maintenance and

waste management

• Interdisciplinary applicability to mechanical engineering, civil engineering, electrical and

instrument & control engineering combined with ability to identify according to process
functions, points of installation and locations

• Consideration of national and international standards,

• Non-language-based coding to ensure international usability,

• Application in computer data processing

1.3. Structure and application

The KKS consists of three types of identification:
The process-related code identifies installations and equipment according to their assigned task
in the power plant process,
The point of installation code identifies the points of installation within an installation unit (e.g.
cubicles, consoles, panels),
The location code identifies the rooms and floors, or other installation sites, for installations and
equipment in building structures.

A uniform identification structure, with a maximum of four breakdown levels, was created for all
three types; the units referred to becoming smaller from left to right.

Serial number of breakdown level 0 1 2 3

Name of breakdown level Total plant Function Equipment unit Component
Example Unit 1 Feedwater system Pump unit Pump

PI
Breakdown levels, referring to Process-Related Identification.

1.3.1. Identification and type of data characters

Table 1 summarizes the identification and type of data characters of the breakdown levels for all
three different types of identification appearing in the KKS.

Serial number 0 1 2 3
of breakdown level
Name of break-down level Total Function Equipment component
Plant Unit
Designation of data character G F0 F1 F2 F3 FN A1 A2 AN A3 B1 B2 BN
Type of data character (A) or (N) (N) A A A NN A A NNN (A) A A NN

A = Alphabetical symbols (letters, special symbols)

N = Numerical symbols (digits)
( ) = These data characters may be omitted

1.3.2. Process-Related Identification

In this type of identification the entire system is subdivided according to the function or process,
since, whether for mechanical, electrical, control or civil engineering, the equipment units and
components must be identifiable in relation to the process.
The process-related identification is for many applications the most important identification, since
it permits, for example, locations of electrical and controls equipment, rooms, signals, and the
identification in circuit diagrams related to particular functions.
In the electrical and instrumentation control engineering sectors, the equipment for auxiliary
services, power supply, open-loop-control, instrumentation, protection, etc., is treated as a
process engineering function. The same applies to structures in civil engineering work.
The process-related identification corresponds to the identification block "Plant" in DIN 40719,
part 2. This block has the prefix sign "=". According to the standard, the prefix sign can be omitted
provided that the identification remains unambiguous.

1.3.3. Point of Installation Identification

As with the Process-Related Identification, the KKS is also used to identify locations, principally of
electrical and instrumentation and control equipment, but also of mechanical equipment.

Originator Identification number Rev. Date Lang. Sheet

ALSTOM ‌ POWER SYSTEMS 1AHA062168 B 27.08.2007 en 1-5
© ALSTOM 2007. All rights reserved.
 Electronically released Rev.

Locations -for example, coordinates, racks and positions in cubicles etc. - are identified in the
breakdown level EQUIPMENT UNIT.
The identification letters now used for the Point of installation identification in the breakdown level
FUNCTION are the same as those for the process-related identification. This improves
recognition of the identification in the overall system. In order to prevent possible confusion
between Process-Related Identification and Point of Installation Identification the prefix sign ”+”
must be added to the Point of Installation Code (according to DIN 40719, part 2). Resp. the
breakdown symbols "full stop" between breakdown Level 1 and 2 must be added. This prefix sign
is omitted when there is absolutely no ambiguity - for example, in layout documents.

1.3.4. Location identification

In order to clearly identify the position of plant, sub-systems and equipment in the power station,
the building structure and floor is entered at the breakdown level FUNCTION, and the rooms on
the various floors of the building structure at the breakdown level EQUIPMENT UNIT. The
breakdown level COMPONENT is omitted in such cases. Fire protection sections are identified
according to the room identification.

1.5. KKS relevant symbols in P&ID's and principle sketches

In P&I diagrams the following symbols to indicate KKS code and limit functions and piping
sections are recommended

The symbol "pin with empty head" is used to

identify the limits of functions and sub-functions

The symbol "pin with full head" is used to identify

the limits of piping sections

Reducers are assigned to the piping with the larger diameter.

DN600 DN800 They need not be shown on P&ID`s.
(See KKS Application Commentaries Part B1, page 52)

NNAAANN The symbol "flag" is used for the identification

of pipings,
AANNN The direction of the flag shows the direction
of the medium flow.

NNAAANN The extended "flag" symbol is used for the identification of a pipe where
medium flow direction alters according to the operating conditions
AANNN

The symbol pointer between connected systems represented on different P&IDs

NNAAANN Breakdown level Function of the connected system as a minimum information.

The symbol "I & C - circuits" (DIN 19227, sheet 1)

2. CHAPTER 2 - PROJECT RELATED RULES, AGREEMENTS AND

PROCEDURES

2.1. Project-related rules, agreements and procedures

This KKS project related rules, agreements and procedures are based on the 2nd
English Edition 09/1992 by VGB-Kraftwerkstechnik GmbH, Essen, Germany.

2.2. Agreement on breakdown level "G" and prefix number for system code "F0"
numbering.

2.2.1. “G” and “F0” for process related and point of installation identification (example).

Total System code Contents

plant prefix No.
"G" "F0"
5 1 Unit 1, Gas Turbine1, HRSG1, El. Generator1 and all related systems
5 8 Unit 1, Steam Turbine, Steam Water Cycle and all related systems
5 9 Unit 1 - related common equipment
9 0 Non-unit specific plants and systems*)

2.2.2. “G” and “F0” for location identification (example).

Total System code Contents

plant prefix No.
"G" "F0"
5 0 Structure appears only once in unit 1
5 1-9 Counting more than one structures with the same structure code (F1,
F2, F3) in unit 1
9 0, 1 - 9 Non-unit specific structures*)
Z 0, 1 - 9 Temporary structures

*) Also plants, systems, structures and equipment considered to occur only once when
extension to 6 or 7 or more (e.g. to existing) units takes place.

2.3. General rules on numbering code elements (FN, AN, BN).

• Numbering starts anew when one of the preceding code elements changes.

• Numbering may be consecutive or grouping.

• Numbering need not be continuous.

• Numbering conventions, once established, may not be altered, not even in the event of
changes made in the progress of planning.

• Redundant zeros must be written.

Originator Identification number Rev. Date Lang. Sheet

ALSTOM ‌ POWER SYSTEMS 1AHA062168 B 27.08.2007 en 2-1
© ALSTOM 2007. All rights reserved.
 Electronically released Rev.

• An application-specific scheme of numbering may be established. However, it has to be valid

throughout all project disciplines in order of an unequivocal understanding of the code.

• Management systems (e.g. computer checking programs, allocation sheets) have to assure,
that no double KKS numbers occur in the project and that no multiple KKS numbers are
assigned to one item.

• If necessary, subdivisions of number ranges in FN and AN according to the division of work

could be made. They have to be written down directly in the Function key code and must be
respected by the partners.

2.4. General rules regarding direction of numbering

• Standard identifications have priority in all cases.

• Numbers are increasing in media or process flow direction.

• Project counting directives referred to local layouts are related to breakdown level "G", prefix
number for system code "F0" and structures (F1 = U) only.

• The counting is not related to any geographical direction (e.g. not from west to east, not
from north to south).

2.5. Rules on modifications and cancellations of KKS numbers.

• It is not allowed to change allocated KKS numbers for a project, if these numbers have been
released for the project.

• The original KKS number is still kept, even when another kind of equipment is used providing
that the function according to the KKS equipment unit code is not changed (e.g. substitution
of a gate valve by a globe valve).

• If in a project a hardware component is no longer used, it is not allowed to re-allocate its

KKS number for another component in the same project.

2.6. Writing modus of KKS code

Following structures of the KKS code are allowed:

- in one line with space between Function Level, Equipment Unit Level (and Component
Level).

e.g. 19PAB10 AP001 (-M01)

- in two (three) lines

e.g. 19PAB10
AP001
(-M01)

2.7. General rules on process-related identification

• Piping & Instrument Diagrams (P&ID) are the basic documents (origins) for a process -
related KKS coding.

Originator Identification number Rev. Date Lang. Sheet

ALSTOM ‌ POWER SYSTEMS 1AHA062168 B 27.08.2007 en 2-2
© ALSTOM 2007. All rights reserved.
 Electronically released Rev.

• Single line diagrams are the basic documents (origins) for a process-related KKS coding in
electrical engineering. However, KKS codes for electrical consumers, measuring loops and
items of I & C represented in Function Diagrams are originated in P&IDs.

• For other engineering activities (e.g. component engineering), KKS code must always be
taken from the above mentioned basic documents.

• In basic KKS documents (P&IDs, single line diagrams and site layouts) the breakdown level
3 (component code) is never used.

• The detailed KKS coding in process-related identification has to be made according to the
KKS-Application Commentaries, Part B1, B3 and B4 by VGB Kraftwerkstechnik GmbH.

2.8. Rules on An numbering for piping and in-pipe-components

Serial No. Application for

NNN
001-199 Piping and in-pipe-components incl. instruments for main media/systems*)
201-299 Piping and in-pipe-components incl. instruments in discharge, drains and venting

830-899 -Free for project-specific allocations; documented agreement necessary
901-999 Indirect measuring circuits (according to Application Commentaries B4, Chpt. 2.1.2.2)

*) Main media / system = in F1, F2, F3 (FN) identified system with its media; e.g. LAB(95) = High pressure
feedwater piping system

Note: Special rules on point of installation identification and location identification have to be
established within the relevant engineering disciplines (electrical, I&C and civil engineering)
according to the KKS-Application Commentaries, Part B2, B3 and B4 by VGB Kraftwerkstechnik
GmbH.
The KKS basic documents for these types of KKS code have to be identified as well.
