Domestic photovoltaic (PV) based microgrid refers to a distributed group of small solar PV systems installed at each household in a residential area. The distributed systems may be integrated to form a meshed microgrid structure which can operate in both islanded and grid-connected modes. Grid-connected microgrids of domestic solar PV systems can supplement energy needs of homeowners. They are a potentially...
The new generation of current sensors, such as Rogowski coils, have performance characteristics that can improve design and operation of modern power systems. This paper presents novel solutions that integrate protection, control, and metering functions for power transformers and cables by sharing signals from the same Rogowski coils.
The quest for intelligent, so called Smart Grid technology is seen by many as the key to future exploitation of renewable energy sources and the inclusion on the Grid of home grown generation from micro CHP systems. But, as Keith Hamilton, Group Managing Director of PBSI Group Limited explains, the prerequisite for the establishment of Smart Grids relies on a significant investment in equipment as...
The concentration of electric power at system buses adds to both the need for high-speed tripping in case of faults and the need to avoid false tripping in case of external faults. This combined need for both superior dependability and security has led to many enhancements and system modifications in bus protection. Bus configurations with multiple zones are particularly difficult to provide with...
When applied over asymmetrical or potentially asymmetrical channels (unequal channel propagation times in the transmitting and receiving directions), such as commercial-class SDH/SONET networks, line current differential schemes need an external time reference for current data alignment if the sensitivity of the differential scheme is to be preserved. Modern line differential schemes can handle a...
A dispatch-oriented risk perception and fault disposal decision support technique for online monitoring and control is proposed in this paper. It helps to improve the sensitivity and accuracy of risk perception by multi-source information mining based on data from SCADA, relay, WAMS and other measurement systems. And it provides a direct means to grasp the whole process of incident handling by online...
With the integration of large scale wind power, the characteristics of power system operation has been changing, and, some problems come forth. On-line security assessment and control decision support system provides the stability and security state message for dispatcher in time, and, some suggestions to improve the level of power system stability and security. To suit the requirements of large amount...
