Abstract :
Phasor Measurement Units (PMU) are being deployed in power systems worldwide. PMUs provide fast and reliable real-time information on the power system status. The general application areas for PMUs are real-time monitoring, advanced power system protection, and advanced control schemes. In this paper the application of PMUs for power system islanding and restoration is examined. The feasibility of PMUs for controlled separation is demonstrated in a realistic power system.
