Workstream 1 - Document kind Classification Codes (DCC) for the wind industry

The workstream on Document kind Classification Codes (DCC) was established in May 2020 to align the understanding and interpretation of IEC 61355-1 Classification and designation of documents for plants, systems, and equipment for the wind industry. The specific outcome of the group discussions is a guideline that describes the use of the codes in IEC 61355-1.

The Wind Industry Guideline for Document kind Classification Codes (DCC) describes overall rules and guidelines for uniformly classifying and identifying documents based on their characteristic information content.

It provides guidance on how to apply IEC 61355-1 document codes to wind industry documentation, gives examples & typical contents of wind industry document types against each of the IEC document kind codes,​ and aims to help with standardization. Some of the benefits are expected to be smoother transfer between systems, easier data retrieval, and aligned expectations on document contents

The guideline has been written by subject matter experts from the following companies:

  • GE Vernova Offshore Wind
  • Nordex Acciona
  • Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy
  • Vattenfall
  • Vestas Wind Systems
  • Ørsted
