MicroPMU Micro Synchrophasor
MicroPMU Micro Synchrophasor
The MicroPMU Micro Synchrophasor phases angles with unprecedented 0.002° and 2 PPM magnitude resolution. Optimized for distribution and microgrid PMU applications. Perfect for researching exactly how distribution-connected renewables affect grid stability, for measuring cable impedances for precise fault locations, for verifying and improving distribution system models, even for detecting cyber attacks on substations. U.S. government-funded US $4 million ARPA-E micro-PMU – developed by PSL, and now available for purchase!
APPLICATIONS
- Increase the situational awareness at the local distribution level
- Event identification & characterization (sags analysis, faults, etc.)
- Topology change detection (open/closed state of switches)
- Grid model validation (phase connectivity identification, line segment impedance calculation, PT/CT calibration)
- State estimation
- Distributed generation characterization
- Load characterization
- Detection of rehearsals of cyber-attacks on substations
