NASPI Basic Synchrophasor Technology Information and Best Practices
Data Mining Techniques and Tools
Description
Data mining is the process of turning raw data into useful information. Data mining has been employed in many different data-rich industries, including banking, healthcare, manufacturing, and telecommunications. With the additions of thousands of PMUs to the nation’s power grid, the power systems...

Categorizing PMUs
Description
Phasor measurement units (PMUs) are becoming prevalent on the power system, as is their integration into advanced power system applications. Performance characteristics for the PMU devices are formalized under IEEE Standard C37.118.1-2011 [1]. Formalizing the data requirements for PMU-based...

Point-on-wave Data
Distribution Task Team
Description
The repository contains point-on-wave data collected on the 20 kV network of EPFL-campus, in a MV/LV substation supplying 2 office buildings and a 560 kWh/720 kVA battery energy storage system (BESS). The waveform recorder functionality has been integrated in the PMU developed in EPFL-DESL. The data...

NASPInet
Description
In 2007-09, DOE worked with NASPI to fund the development of an architecture framework for synchrophasor data networks. That “NASPInet” framework has been the prevailing guidance since that time, and various NASPInet elements were incorporated and tested in several of the SGIG synchrophasor projects...

Event Analysis
CRSTT Use Case
Description
An ATC Operations Engineer was using synchrophasor data to review fault operations and stumbled across the odd voltage signature shown below from a PMU monitoring one of our 69 Kv substations. One of the three voltage phases would “drift” away from the other two phase voltages and then eventually...

Event Analysis
CRSTT Use Case
Description
We have observed significant sustained voltage oscillations on the ATC transmission system that were not visible in our SCADA data. These oscillations are normally in the 0.6 – 0.75 Hz range and are lightly damped. They can persist for weeks and then disappear for weeks and even months.
