Insulect have an FCAS conformance monitoring solution that is operating in numerous monitoring applications across the power system.
Read MoreThis paper summarises a testing exercise carried out by a utility, a Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) manufacturer and a developer of systems and applications to qualify the PMU for use in applications of interest for transmission system security and optimisation.
Read MoreThe GCC Interconnection Project has connected the electricity grids of six Arab Gulf countries along the Gulf to share power, reduce overall spinning reserve, reduce need for installed generation capacity for reserve, provide support during emergency and black out situations, and offer opportunities to trade energy with other regions.
Read MoreThe objective of this paper is to explain how to measure the most important parameters and to give a little outlook how this standard might evolve and effect the way you need to measure Power Quality.
Read MoreWith the increasing amount of wind power generation connected to the power grid, the importance of measuring the wind turbines’ power characteristics and power quality characteristics is growing.
Read MoreThis paper reviews the development of overhead line fault locators based on traveling wave techniques and provides examples of use in transmission systems.
Read MoreHighly accurate distance to fault results has obvious advantages and cost benefits when applied to overhead transmission lines (greater than 100KV).
Read MoreThis UK Utility made a strategic decision to invest in monitoring equipment and use the resultant data to evaluate plant and network performance and identify defects and weaknesses in the system to allow early remedial actions to be taken.
Read MoreThere are many manufacturers around the world providing power quality (PQ) monitoring and digital fault recording (DFR) solutions. Different monitoring requirements, monitoring practices, and new standardization make for a diverse range of available solutions.
Read MoreThis paper presents considerations relating to the monitoring of power plants to meet the requirements of transmission grids for information on their dynamic behavior.
Read MoreIn early spring 2012 four companies were invited to demonstrate their “traveling wave” fault location devices by an Asian utility.
