Progress in the development of communication network technology continues apace and Ethernet technology, once limited to local area network applications, is increasingly being considered for use as the backbone technology for wide area communication networks. The technology, most commonly referred to as “Carrier Ethernet”, seems likely to become the dominant technology within wide area networks ultimately...
Although there has been a practice of transposition of transmission lines, most of the real life EHV/UHV lines are untransposed. The distance protection of such lines becomes very complicated. With the advent of Global Positioning System (GPS) and Fiber optics technology, current differential protection can be a better choice for such lines. This paper proposes current differential protection scheme...
The paper describes the concept of synchrophasors and the introduction of synchrophasors for protection applications in IEEE PC37.118.1 and then discusses different substation and transmission line protection applications. Requirements for reporting rate, time synchronization and communications architecture are discussed. Testing of protection systems based on PMUs is described at the end of the paper.
Accurate fault location on transmission lines becomes increasingly beneficial by reducing outage times and allowing faster restoration of scarce power system assets back into service. Having natural access to synchronized remote current data, line current differential protection schemes can incorporate multiterminal fault location algorithms, allowing for more accurate fault location compared with...
Testing of Phasor Measurement Units (PMU devices) is necessary for any PMU application, be it a simple visualization and archiving system or a more complex set of real-time system operations tools. PMUs are available from virtually every manufacturer of protection and monitoring equipment. They are often implemented as embedded functions within relays or disturbance recorders. This paper describes...
