1 FNet and PMU Data Overview Cause Analysis and Data Workshop August 1, 2012

2 Real-Time Data Sources In Situational Awareness and Event Analysis, NERC uses: FNet 10 samples per second ACE/Frequency data 1 second data Phasor measurement data (from PMUs) 30 samples per second 2 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

3 FNet Overview Operated by the Power Information Technology Lb Laboratory at the University it of Tennessee Frequency Disturbance Recorders (FDRs) are used to measure the frequency, phase angle, and voltage of the power system at ordinary 120 V outlets Measurements arecontinuously transmitted via the Internet to the FNET servers hosted at the University of Tennessee and Virginia Tech World wide FDR deployment 3 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

4 Event Triangulation 4 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

5 Basic Principals Location and Size of Disturbance (Frequency based) Frequency perturbations travel throughout the grid as electromechanical waves at measurable speeds The TDOA (Time Dl Delay of Arrival) l)is approximately proportional to the distance of sensors from disturbance center. Tripping of generation or load (P tripped) is proportional to the frequency deviation (Δ f) 5 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

6 FNet Capabilities FNet data can be used for: Event detection and location estimation Oscillation detection Animations of frequency and angle perturbations Detection of system breakup or islanding Predictions of gridinstabilityinstability Used as an integral part of NERC s Frequency event detection Rapid analysis of system events 6 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

7 FDRs locations in US/Canada 7 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

8 System Event During Super Bowl Super Bowl Avg. # of Event # Viewers (>400 (000) MW) XLV (2011) 111, XLIV (2010) 106, XLIII (2009) 98, XLII (2008) 97, RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

10 Sharp Frequency Drop Half Time 3 Minutes Plot 10 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

11 Rapid Event Analysis Example 11 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

12 Pacific Southwest Dist Before we knew anything We heard there was a blackout in Southern California and that the San Onofre plant was tripped... and then we heard that a switching error was the cause of the whole thing Of course, we didn t believe it! We turned to FNet and our Resource Adequacy (ACE & Frequency databases) 12 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

13 CAISO Freq/ACE MST From RA Tool CISO Freq/ACE MST 13 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

24 Event D 24 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY

25 What we learned with FNET The frequency shows four main events A. The initial separation around 22:27:39 (UTC), resulting in a slow frequency dip of about 30 mhz over about 25 seconds B. A frequency ramp beginning around 22:32:10 increasing frequency +30 mhz over about 15 seconds C. A frequency drop around 22:37:55 of over 40 mhz (B A) over about 12 seconds D. A frequency jump around 22:38:21of over +150mHz (C A) in less than 5 seconds, settling at around +80 mhz (B A) in about 20 seconds 25 RELIABILITY ACCOUNTABILITY
