Early History The first generator was developed by Michael Faraday in 1831 John Woolrich patents magneto-electric generator in 1842 (for electrotyping) California Electric Light Co. supplies power for arc lighting 1879 First power stations in London and New York in 1882 1884 the Pearl Street station supplied 59,000 after starting with 2300 bulbs
Power System Elements Generators - Input Loads - Outputs Lines Ties Gens to Loads Operating Characteristics & Constraints Power Balance KVL & KCL Line flows based on Impedances No large-scale storage Manufacture as we need it
Operation Key ingredients: Economics and Reliability Economics Large Optimization Generator Scheduling and Commitments Cost minimization Reliability No violations of voltage levels, Frequency excursions, power flows, Continuous monitoring Control

A New Paradigm: PMU Synchrophasor Synchronized Phasor Measurement GPS 2 45 PMU Phasor Measurement Unit
Phasors Inputs Analog filters Sampled data Phasors Relay Logic Digital filtering Current and voltage magnitudes for relaying require computation of phasors Want to respond to symmetrical rms quantities in the presence of harmonics and other noise Impedance relaying requires complex phasors from which impedance can be calculated 13
Phasors - Definition θ Imaginary θ Real t=0 The starting time defines the phase angle of the phasor. This is arbitrary. However, differences between phase angles are independent of the starting time. 14
Sampling, Fourier Input signal Data samples cosines sines sin and cos functions x n x n-1.. x 1 t Phasor X = ---Σ x k (coskθ - j sinkθ) 2 N 15
Non-Recursive Calc. θ 1 θ 2 θ 2 = θ 1 + kφ t θ 1 The non-recursive phasor rotates in the forward direction, one sample angle per sample. 16
Recursive Calculation θ 1 θ 2 = θ 1 t θ 2 = θ 1 θ 1 The recursive phasor remains fixed if the input waveform is constant. 17
Why are they Important? Captures Voltage/Current magnitude and angle All units are referenced to a common time All information is time tagged High Resolution data 30 60 phasors per second 18

Aplicaciones Monitoring Information to Operators Control Process and Equipment optimal Protection. 22
What is it? An adaptive protection scheme is: Settings Alarms Triggering/Threshold values Security vs Dependability Stress vs Capacity Becomes more attuned with he prevailing conditions of power system 23
Adaptive Protection I know.. Most likely we are going to have arguments with field protection engineers. 24
Why? Traditional protection schemes/systems are based on pre-determined studies: Fixed Loads Static topologies Known contingencies Hidden Failures are 25
How? Advances in Monitoring Systems: Synchronous Wide Area Microprocessor-Based IEDs Store Process Communicate All in a common time 26

Loss of Generation Load-Flow Solution The re-distribution is incorrect: The swing bus will shoulder all the necessary change. Generation Loss Associated Losses Inertial re-dispatch Long-Term the solution may be appropriate. Short-Term the solution neglects the electrical distances 37
