At present, the PMU technology is one of the essential enablers for WAMS. It utilizes the availability of high-precision synchronized clock sources – extracted from global positioning system (GPS) receivers and samples the instantaneous analogue – quantities of voltage and current magnitudes and phase angles.

By the end of the course, you‘ll be able to:

  • Respond faster and more effectively to system disturbances
  •  Recreate the precise sequence of events following a major system disturbance
  •  Understanding Synchrophasor Measurement Techniques
  •  Provide real-time monitoring of dynamic phenomena
  •  Understand the communication infrastructure for WAMS
  •  Wide-Area Measurement System (WAMS)
  •   Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU)
  • After completing this course, participants will be able to:
  •  illustrate how to enhance the reliability of large interconnected power systems using wide-area measurement technology
  •  Envision and implement improved monitoring, protection, and control of power systems and equipment
