What this block does
Requests the assigned source-voltage adjustment used by the reconnection control.
A simple example
In a microgrid reconnecting at its point of common coupling, a synchroniser can adjust the island reference while a separate permissive confirms the permitted relationship across the open breaker. For this reference, the drawing identifies “Voltage matching demand” at the input and “Source voltage adjustment” at the output. Other voltage-control loops require coordination.
What the drawings help you do
Start at the named input: Voltage matching demand. Identify its source device or document and the state represented on the drawing. Follow the named output: Source voltage adjustment. Cross-reference its destination and separate the command from confirmation that the equipment responded.

What it represents
Requests the assigned source-voltage adjustment used by the reconnection control. Synchronising control compares two AC systems before their assigned connecting breaker closes. Voltage magnitude, frequency, phase relationship, breaker readiness and command authority are separate inputs to the closing decision.
In a microgrid reconnecting at its point of common coupling, a synchroniser can adjust the island reference while a separate permissive confirms the permitted relationship across the open breaker. For this reference, the drawing identifies “Voltage matching demand” at the input and “Source voltage adjustment” at the output. Other voltage-control loops require coordination.
Identify the two measurement sides and the equipment receiving any adjustment request. Closing limits, breaker timing and loss-of-measurement behavior require the approved synchronising design. The functional block is an independent explanation of this named application. Equipment-specific ratings, terminal connections and operating conditions must be established in the project documentation.
How to read it

Information to show or reference
- Label the source and connection reference for voltage matching demand.
- Identify the destination and defined state of source voltage adjustment.
- Record the equipment or control-document revision supporting this functional block.
- Check this application limit in the project design: Other voltage-control loops require coordination.
A distinction that matters
Other voltage-control loops require coordination. This reference describes the named application; it does not establish a new IEC graphical symbol, an ANSI device-function number or an exact manufacturer connection diagram.
