A Comparative Study of Bangladesh Grid Code

Electricity grid code of Bangladesh consists of technical specifications which define the parameters that electricity generating plants or consumers must abide by to ensure safe, secure and proper economic functioning of the power system network (BPSN). In this paper, a comparative study of the existing grid code of Bangladesh (BGC) has been presented. Requirements specified in BGC are compared with the requirements in grid codes of other countries. It is quite evident from the comparison that the BGC has certain limitations and insufficiency, and is in need of a comprehensive review.
