This paper proposes a new distributed architecture to measure synchrophasors in power substations, inspired by the standards IEC 61850. The new scheme is implemented in the process bus, where a high performance merging unit (MU), synchronized by precision time protocol (PTP), according to the standard IEEE 1588-2008, sends the sampled values (SVs) to an intelligent electronic device (IED) enabled to behave as a phasor measurement unit (PMU). The synchrophasors are evaluated in the IED through an algorithm based on the Taylor Fourier Transform and suitably modified to have high performance also in terms of response time in presence of step change conditions. Different tests and considerations are presented to evaluate the various elements of uncertainty that a distributed architecture can introduce and, finally, to ensure the feasibility of the proposed approach.

Abstract

This paper proposes a new distributed architecture to measure synchrophasors in power substations, inspired by the standards IEC 61850. The new scheme is implemented in the process bus, where a high performance merging unit (MU), synchronized by precision time protocol (PTP), according to the standard IEEE 1588-2008, sends the sampled values (SVs) to an intelligent electronic device (IED) enabled to behave as a phasor measurement unit (PMU). The synchrophasors are evaluated in the IED through an algorithm based on the Taylor Fourier Transform and suitably modified to have high performance also in terms of response time in presence of step change conditions. Different tests and considerations are presented to evaluate the various elements of uncertainty that a distributed architecture can introduce and, finally, to ensure the feasibility of the proposed approach.
