Significance of Global Time Reference


TESLA Power System Recorder with PMU


TESLA PMU Overview<br />

The TESLA PMU is a complete, state-of-the-art, user-friendly multitimeframe<br />

dynamic power system recorder with advanced PMU<br />

and Cont<strong>in</strong>uous PMU data storage and transmitt<strong>in</strong>g device<br />

• PMU – Phasor Measurement Unit as per IEEE C37.118 and exceed data transmitt<strong>in</strong>g<br />

sample rate – 1 Phasor sample per cycle<br />

• Up to 12 Phasors of Positive, Negative, Zero Sequence or Summated quantities can<br />

be transmitted over Giga bit Ethernet<br />

• NERC-compliant cont<strong>in</strong>uous disturbance record<strong>in</strong>g capabilities – with PMU phasor<br />

data<br />

• Provides redundancy for PMU data <strong>in</strong> case of communication problems with the<br />

Phasor Data Concentrator (PDC)- m<strong>in</strong>i PDC<br />

• <strong>Wide</strong> range frequency response (55 Hz – 65 Hz)<br />

• Easy to configure and use<br />

• Excellent time synchronization accuracy (+/- 0.75 uS)


<strong>Wide</strong> <strong>Area</strong> Monitor<strong>in</strong>g <strong>Systems</strong> (<strong>WAMS</strong>)

<strong>WAMS</strong> - Applications<br />

• <strong>Wide</strong> <strong>Area</strong> Visualization and Monitor<strong>in</strong>g<br />

• Real Time Phase angle measurement<br />

• Real Time Frequency Track<strong>in</strong>g<br />

• Inter <strong>Area</strong> Oscillation Detection<br />

• Generator Shedd<strong>in</strong>g Scheme Us<strong>in</strong>g Phase<br />

• State Estimation<br />

• Voltage Stability Monitor<strong>in</strong>g<br />

• Dynamic Model Validation<br />

• Dynamic Thermal Circuit Reliability Monitor<strong>in</strong>g<br />

etc.


Security of PMU data<br />

•Source www.garrett.com<br />

•TESLA (3000 and 4000) will have SSH / SSL protocol for end-to-end<br />

accountability<br />

•Will follow the password requirement as per NERC requirements<br />

•Will use certificates for further authentication<br />

•Purpose is to provide multiple-layer security scheme through<br />

future firmware-only upgrade


Conclusions:<br />

• <strong>Synchrophasors</strong> (PMUs) play a very important role <strong>in</strong> the<br />

<strong>WAMS</strong> by provid<strong>in</strong>g useful real time data<br />

• Visualization and Understand<strong>in</strong>g of Phase angle variations<br />

gives very good <strong>in</strong>sight <strong>in</strong>to the severity of stress over wide<br />

area network and assists <strong>in</strong> better decision mak<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong><br />

manag<strong>in</strong>g the <strong>in</strong>tegrity of the grid.<br />

• TESLA PMUs can stream and store PMU data (m<strong>in</strong>i PDC)<br />

based on system events as per IEEE C37.118 Standard and<br />

NERC requirements<br />

• TESLA PMU data is secured us<strong>in</strong>g SSH/SSL protocol for endto-end<br />

security
