Abstract :
This paper uses complex phasor data (voltage, current and phase angle) from openPDC for situational awareness of the SmartGrid. Alarm notification features through E-mail and Short message service (SMS) on various parameters of Phasor Measurement Units (PMU) data has been developed in C# programming as an extension to the existing openPDC software functionalities. In addition, realtime display of PMU data based on the geographical locations of PMU is developed for openPDC software and is presented within a Google Maps-based Windows Forms application. The paper also discusses how to process the PMU data using a k-means clustering algorithm.
