 Overview

Overview

PCS-996S-A is an advanced phasor measurement unit (PMU), compatible with IEEE C37.118-2005,
IEEE C37.118.1-2011, IEEE C37.118.2-2011 and IEEE C37.118.1A-2014. It is used to measure and
output synchrophasor data with a high precision to PCS-996S-G Phasor Data Concentrator (PDC) in
substation, or directly to wide area measurement system (WAMS) master station at control center.
Several PCS-996S-A PMUs, with PCS-996S-G PDC(s), together construct a substation-level
measurement system.
