Recent work on complex networks compared the topological and electrical structures of the power grid, taking into account the underlying physical laws that govern the electrical connectivity between various components in the network. A distance metric, namely, resistance distance was introduced to provide a more comprehensive description of interconnections in power systems compared with the to...

-After two decades of phasor network deployment, phasor measurements are now available at many major substations and power plants. The North American SynchroPhasor Initiative (NASPI), supported by the US Department of Energy and the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), provides a forum to facilitate cultivating the efforts in phasor technology in North America and globally. P...

The phasor Measurement Unit is a modern tracking tool mounted on network to track and manage power systems. PMU accurate and time-synchronized device that gives voltage measurements in nodes current connected to those where the installed. This study introduces Genetic Algorithm for optimization of allocation PMUs enable maximum observation network. The optimal placement (OPP) problem devel...

With the growing number of severe system disturbances and blackouts around world, controlled separation is becoming an increasingly important integrity protection scheme (SIPS) to save electric power from a complete or partial disintegration. A successful splitting approach should at least tackle following two well-known interrelated problems: “when split?” “where split?”. Multiple previous pub...

<span>This paper makes a contribution to the field of fault location finding in new way that helps improvement grid reliability. This proposes study-based approach for allocation and type classification uses study voltage current frequency during abnormal condition. Although, ideally are same condition they may differ from each other. difference is separately measured by phasor measuremen...

Zero-sequence currents in high-voltage power systems during normal operation can have a significant influence on nearby infrastructure. It is therefore necessary to gain insight into typical levels of zero-sequence variety operational situations. Measurements provide this insight. When performing measurements, one needs know the uncertainty associated with measurement draw accurate conclusions....

This paper proposes a novel online measurement-based Wide-Area Voltage Control (WAVC) method using Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) data in power systems with Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices. As opposed to previous WAVC methods, the proposed does not require any model knowledge or participation of all buses and considers both active reactive perturbations. Specifically, exploits re...
