power generation facilities - the companies for production of electrical energy, and also objects of electric grid economy;
the companies for production of electrical energy - stationary power plants (thermal power plants, combined heat and power plants, hydroelectric power stations, and also other power plants using the renewable energy resources) connected to single electric utility system;
objects of electric grid economy - power line, transformer substations, distribution points intended for implementation of transfer of electrical energy;
the high-level power networks - the set of objects of electric grid economy used for ensuring interregional and (or) interstate transfer of electrical energy;
territorial power network - set of objects of electric grid economy within respectively territory of the Republic of Karakalpakstan, areas and the city of Tashkent;
supervisory control - process of centralized continuous management of technology coordinated work of power generation facilities and the technology mode of functioning of single electric utility system;
electrical energy - the goods of special type which are characterized by simultaneity of its production and consumption;
the consumer of electrical energy (consumer) - the legal entity or physical person using electrical energy for production and (or) domestic needs according to the agreement of electric utility service;
emergency operation - inadmissible variation of technology parameters of work of power generation facilities which can lead to violation of reliable functioning of single electric utility system and restriction of delivery of electrical energy to consumers.
