“a dp SIFANG Excellence for Automation It is getting more important to acquire real- : time synchronized phasor data of the power l e re a grid and make a correct operation, Which cannot be done by traditional SCADA system, Wide Area Measurement System (WAMS) is e a Ss Uu re m e n built upon the break-through Phasor Measurement Units (PMU) technology. It collects, stores, transmits and analyzes critical phasor data across the power grid. ys em WAMS provides power system state and situational awareness. With the high accuracy and high speed, WAMS also enables closed- 5p Catv setae ide songrrtieaams S oO | ut i on SIFANG's Wide Area Measurement System detects abnormal system conditions, provides alarm message and analyzes results for system ‘operator in real time. It is applied to improve the and situational awareness in today's and future power grids. > Fast fault location unctions Faults can be located by employing visualization techniques, which allows dispatchers to quickly locate the fault area and take correct action. » Normal state visualized monitoring Under normal operating conditions, PMU measurements’ Steady state applications such as the voltage phasor, current phasor, active power, Hybrid state estimation, line parameter identification frequency, etc., at different locations of the power grid are and line rating evaluation, acquired by WAMS in real time. Power grid online dynamics analysis > Low frequency oscillation statistics and assessment Online DSA based on BCU, generator model param- i ter identification and auxiliary service evaluation Daily switch operations and load changes can stimulate * ny small oscillations in power systems. These small ased on PMU recorded data, ete. oscillations also contain information relating to intrinsic oscillation modes. Hence, relevant identification and statistics acquisition of these small low frequency oscillations excited by daily random disturbances in the system can be performed, By analyzing the statistical results, the intrinsic oscillation modes of the power system can be determined on the basis of the daily field data,» Relying on the GPS signal, PMU provides the high precision phasor data from substations and generator units, sends to the WAMS in control center, which can be used for online analytical capabilities for the assessment of system dynamic behaviors. » By analyzing the small low frequency oscillation statistical data, the intrinsic oscillation modes of power. systems can be found in the historical field data for further identification of the weak point in the system, » Advanced monitoring and stability estimation remedial control and protection functions can be implemented successfully, which improves the power system stability level significantly. } Monitor the realtime power system operation and analyze the fault by WAMS is an economical and efficient way to explore efficiency of the transmission capacity. It supports further optimization of ‘the transmission network planning » Redundant and economical system structure, easy maintenance, flexible upgrading and integration of more advanced applications. » Support IEC 61970 CIM and SVG.
