Name Cardinality Type Description

Name	Cardinality	Type	Description
`m_rid`	1	`string`	Master resource identifier issued by a model authority. The mRID is unique within an exchange context. Global uniqueness is easily achieved by using a UUID, as specified in RFC 4122, for the mRID. The use of UUID is strongly recommended. For CIMXML data files in RDF syntax conforming to IEC 61970-552, the mRID is mapped to rdf:ID or rdf:about attributes that identify CIM object elements.
`description`	0..1	`string`	The description is a free human readable text describing or naming the object. It may be non unique and may not correlate to a naming hierarchy.
`location`	0..1	`Location`	Location of this power system resource.
`operational_limit_set`	0..*	`OperationalLimitSet`	The operational limit sets associated with this equipment.
`terminals`	0..*	`Terminal`	Conducting equipment have terminals that may be connected to other conducting equipment terminals via connectivity nodes or topological nodes.
`usage_points`	0..*	`UsagePoint`	All usage points connected to the electrical grid through this equipment.
