Model Representation

Figure below shows an UML diagram for Terminal and ConnectivityNode in Common Information Model (CIM) which is used to connect terminals of ac conducting equipment which is analogous to DistributionBus in grid data models. The CIM diagram is accessed from here.. Terminal class inherits from IdentifiedObject class which has name, description and mrid. IdentifiedObject.mrid is analogous to ComponentWithQuantities.uuid. Note in GDM we also have system_uuid to sort of manage which system these assets belong to. Also DistributionBus has coordinate attribute of type Location which is equivalent to PositionPoint in CIM.

GDM	CIM	Note
ComponentWithQuantities.name	cim:IdentifiedObject.name	Both of them are string.
ComponentWithQuantities.uuid	cim:IdentifiedObject.mrid	Unique identifier for the component.
ComponentWithQuantities.system_uuid	N/A	System UUID to which this component belongs to.
PowerSystemBus.rated_voltage	cim:BaseVoltage.ratedVoltage	Note rated voltage is unit aware but BaseVoltage is not.
Location.x	cim:PositionPoint.xPosition	x coordinate of the component.
Location.y	cim:PositionPoint.yPosition	y coordinate of the component
Location.crs	N/A	Coordinate reference system for geo coordinates.
DistributionBus.voltage_type	N/A	Differentiates from line to line voltage to line to ground voltage
DistributionComponent.feeder		Name of the feeder to which this component belong to
DistributionComponent.substation		Name of the substation to which this component belongs to.
DistributionBus.phases	cim:Terminal.phases	List of phases.
VoltageLimitSet.type		Limit type min or max
VoltageLimitSet.value		Value for limit.

Here is an UML diagram of DistributionBus from Grid data models.
