Substation automation and communications for controlling primary equipment (switches, breakers, etc.)
For many years, Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) has been the automation system’s traditional heart. RTU has been a backbone of distributed automation and SCADA systems. This paper focuses on substation… Read more
Cold load pickup and inrush problems in protection of distribution feeder circuits
Usually when a distribution circuit is restored after an extended outage, the demand is greater than before the outage. Attempting to pick up this load can be problematic because the… Read more
The essentials of harmonic filtering techniques
This example is aimed at illustrating the reduction of THDV using a high-pass filter in an installation. High-pass filter is used to control a resonant condition. The example describes another… Read more
Why and where Rogowski Coil current sensors are favorable when compared to CTs
Rogowski Coils can easily replace conventional current transformers in protection, metering, and control applications. They can be applied at all voltage levels (low, medium, and high voltage). However, unlike CTs… Read more
Study on fully direct current integrated offshore wind farm
Power transmission is an important factor in the increase of cost of offshore wind farms. HVDC transmission is the only alternative when the distance from the wind farm to shore… Read more
Current transformer (CT) saturation calculator
The spreadsheet ‘CT Saturation Calculator’ is intended to provide quick indication not only of whether or not a CT will saturate in a particular application, but also an accurate indication… Read more
