APPENDIX I: KKS SYSTEM
The Siemens Kraftwerk-Kennzeichen-System (KKS), abridged version, "Identification System for Power Plants," is described in
this appendix.
Source: Siemens abridged booklet for field use, 1995 edition.
I.1. FORMAT OF THE KKS
In consideration of the various requirements placed on the identification of plants, sections of plants, and items of equipment in
power stations, KKS has three different types of code:
Process-related code Process-related identification of systems and items of equipment according to their functions in
mechanical, civil, electrical, and control and instrumentation engineering.
Point of installation code Identification of points of installation of electrical and control and instrumentation devices in
installation units (e.g., in cabinets, panels, consoles).
Location code Identification of locations in structures, on floors and in rooms and also of fire areas and topographical
determinations (surface area grid).
These three types of code use the same identification scheme, which is subdivided into four breakdown levels and titled as
follows:
The individual breakdown levels are made up of classifying and numbering code elements which consist of data characters
occupied by alpha numeric symbols:
The following extract from the keys contains the most important classifying parts of the function, equipment unit, and
component keys used in fossil-fueled power plants.
The numerical data characters of the identifier are normally not classifying and are employed on a plant and user-specific basis
("Project-specific establishments according to the KKS Guidelines").
