Wide-area measurements to improve system models and system operation

This paper presents collected events to demonstrate the use of synchrophasor data to update and improve system models and system operation. Examples are given of responses to events captured using wide-area synchrophasor measurements. Phase angle, frequency, and voltage responses are displayed with discussion of the events, synchrophasor data views, and insights to be gained from the different data types. This paper advances the understanding of wide-area measurement systems, which provide the newest development in system monitoring.
