What the data for this category looks like
Core data sources for grid equipment include real-time operating data from grid dispatch SCADA systems, equipment factory ledger archives, operation records submitted by on-site inspections, and publicly available equipment operation archives from grid enterprises. Real-time operating data is updated at second-level intervals. Ledger data is updated quarterly. Inspection records are updated each time a task is submitted. The document structure for a single equipment due diligence report includes fields such as equipment model, rated voltage, rated current, cumulative operating duration, batch number, and number of faults in the past 12 months. Field units follow power industry standards: voltage is measured in kV, and duration is measured in hours.
What constraints these characteristics impose on tool calling and plugins
Real-time second-level operating data requires that the response time of a single tool calling request does not exceed 5 seconds, otherwise the latest equipment status cannot be obtained. Multi-source data access requires plugins to adapt to different authentication methods and interface specifications of SCADA systems and inspection systems, which increases the adaptation cost of plugin development. Standardized fields and units require tools to complete unit verification and format unification before outputting results, to avoid unit confusion issues. The document length of batch equipment due diligence reports is relatively long, so appropriate chunk splitting parameters need to be configured to prevent exceeding the large model context window. Data sources with different update frequencies require differentiated pull cycles: real-time data is pulled at second-level intervals, and ledger data is pulled at daily intervals.
How to set the configurations
| Configuration Item | Recommended Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
batchToolMaxConcurrent | 2–4 | Adapt to the current limiting threshold of the grid system API, avoid triggering current limiting interception during batch calls |
toolRequestTimeout | 3–5 seconds | Match the second-level update requirement of real-time operating data, prevent request timeout from losing the latest status |
splitChunkSize | 800–1200 characters | Adapt to the large model context window, split the long document content of due diligence reports |
pluginAuthType | Configure according to the target system | Adapt to different authentication methods of SCADA and inspection systems, such as API keys, OAuth2 |
workflowBatchRetryCount | 2 | Address call failures caused by temporary grid system current limiting, supplement the retry mechanism |
parseFileMaxSize | 1000 MB | Adapt to the upload size requirement of batch equipment ledger files |
The parameter values provided on this page are common starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material form, data volume and business rules. Specific issues require specific analysis, and it is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing.
Three common errors
- Phenomenon: The full process can be completed during online debugging of batch execution nodes, but only some equipment tasks are executed when calling via API. Cause:
batchToolMaxConcurrentis not configured to adapt to grid system current limiting, and the concurrency number exceeds the threshold during API calling, causing some requests to be intercepted. - Phenomenon: After calling the workflow interface, the tool calling operating data fields in the conversation log are empty. Cause: The
enableToolLogconfiguration item is not enabled, or the plugin does not correctly return thetoolOutputfield, causing the log to fail to be collected. - Phenomenon: In version V4.12.3, after the custom plugin runs, the displayed download address on the interface keeps flashing before showing the final result. Cause: The plugin uses an asynchronous polling mechanism but no asynchronous callback waiting duration is configured in the workflow, causing the front end to refresh repeatedly to obtain results.
How to confirm the configuration is correct
- Initiate a single equipment tool calling test, verify that the returned result field units conform to power industry standards, and adjust the value of
toolRequestTimeoutto a range that adapts to the target system response speed. - Initiate a batch calling test, monitor the current limiting feedback of the target system, and adjust the value of
batchToolMaxConcurrentto a range that does not trigger current limiting. - View the workflow operation log, confirm that the tool calling output fields have been fully collected, and check the enabled status of the
enableToolLogconfiguration item. - Test the complete process of the custom plugin, confirm that there is no repeated loading after the result is returned, and adjust the asynchronous callback waiting duration to a range that matches the plugin return rhythm.
