Distribution Automation (DA) is viewed as an integral component of the Smart Grid paradigm. It facilitates the employment of computer technology and communication infrastructure to advance management and operation of the distribution network from a semi-automated approach towards a fully automated one. SCADA systems, advanced sensors, and electronic controllers are integrated into the DA system in...
This paper summarizes the history of volt/VAR control at Progress Energy Carolinas (PES) for the transmission to distribution and distribution systems. PEC has transitioned from a volt/VAR control system that incorporated local control of capacitors and regulators to an automated system that provides remote control of feeder capacitor banks. Currently PEC is implementing a Distribution System Demand...
This paper summarizes the history of Distribution Automation (DA) at Progress Energy Carolinas (PEC). PEC's first introduction into DA occurred in 1997 with the installation of a DSCADA and Feeder Monitoring System. In addition to these systems, PEC also implemented a capacitor control program for distribution feeder capacitor banks. Currently PEC is implementing a Distribution System Demand Response...
