<ul><li>When associated NameType.name is "energyIdentCodeEIC", Name.name is used to hold the EIC code (formerly generated by ETSO, now under ENTSO-E authorithy). In the older profile, IdentifiedObject.aliasName was used to carry the EIC Code : this has been deprecated and Name.name is used instead.</li><br /></p><p><li>Name.name (associated to NameType.name = "energyIdentCodeEIC") is optional and used only where appropriate.</li><br /></p><p><li>The "energyIdentCodeEIC" is optional for the following classes : SynchronousMachine, EnergyConsumer, ACLineSegment, PowerTransformer, TopologicalNode, GeneratingUnit, ControlArea, ControlAreaGeneratingUnit, GeographicalRegion, Substation, VoltageLevel.</li><br /></p><p><li>The "energyCodeIdentEIC" is not used in the following classes : RatioTapChanger, PowerTransformerEnd, Switch, ShuntCompensator, TopologicalIsland, OperationalLimit, TieFlow, RegulatingControl, MutualCoupling, ReactiveCapabilityCurve</li><br /></p><p></ul><br /></p>
