POWER SYSTEM OPERATION AND CONTROL USING THE SCADA SYSTEM INTRODUCTION Power System Operation and Control can simply be defined as the real time manipulation of certain status quantities based on the Power system design. These quantities are classified as follows 1. Integer- variables * Tap – settings on a Power transformer This is used to vary the secondary voltage to enhance quality of voltage being transmitted to consumers. * Status of circuit breakers‚ RMU fuses‚ feeder-pillar

Power to the people in Southern Tanzania Anders H. Nordström‚ Christian Kornevall Electricity: the developed world takes it for granted but it is a luxury to many parts of the developing world. In developed countries‚ electricity is considered the backbone of the economy and it is generally agreed that providing access to electricity is a key element in the fight against poverty and an enabler of social and economic development. Why is then that an estimated 1.6 billion people‚ a quarter of the

Common Electric Power Transmission Mechanisms: The transfer of electric power in bulk‚ especially what is done from the electric power plants to different locations is commonly referred to as the electric power transmission. There are usually huge networks of wires and cables that are setup in order to facilitate the transfer of electric power from one location to another. The network is given different names at different places but the main aim of the grid is to ensure the transfer of power

Mitigation of Disturbances by Shunt Active Power Filter Using Wavelet Transforms Abstract— The effect of Power Quality (PQ) Disturbances on power utilities are increasing day by day with wide spread use of non – linear loads. “Harmonics is one such disturbance which will cause the power system”. These disturbances are detected and compensated in a better means by using Active Power Filters (APF). The identification and reference current generation is carried out by using Wavelet Transform (WT) Theory

Power Distribution Reforms in India – A journey from Monopoly towards Competition. Case Objective: Power a basic human need is the critical infrastructure on which modern economic activity is fully dependent. Only 55% households in India have access to Electricity. Most of those who have access do not get uninterrupted reliable supply. In this era of globalization‚ it is essential that electricity of good qualities is provided at reasonable rates for economic activity so that competitiveness increases

About Flexible AC Transmission System Flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) is deployed in grid transmission system‚ which is used to minimize the losses in the transmission line and increase the grid power output. The conventional grid transmission system consists of mechanical switched shunt and series capacitors‚ reactors‚ and synchronous generator which are used to minimize the losses. However‚ the use of these devices results in slow response and consequently lowers the performance of the
