A '''grid code''' is a technical specification which defines the

parameters a facility connected to a public electric network has to meet to ensure safe, secure and economic proper functionningfunctioning of the electric system. The facility can be an [[electricity generation|electricity generating plant]], a consumer, or another network.

The grid code is specified by an authority responsible for the system integrity and network operation.

Its elaboration usually implicates network operators (distribution or transmission system operators), representatives of users and, to an extent varying between countries, the regulating body.
