Synchrophasors
Introduction
The value of synchrophasor data increases greatly when the data can be shared
over a communications network in real time. Two Synchrophasor Protocols are
available in the relay that allow for a centralized device to collect data efficiently
from several phasor measurement units (PMUs). Some possible uses of a system-
wide synchrophasor system include the following:
➤
Power-system state measurement
➤
Wide-area network protection and control schemes
➤
Small-signal analysis
➤
Power-system disturbance analysis

Central Software quickly translates power sys-
tem data into visual information. It is a powerful yet easy-to-use solution for dis-
playing and analyzing real-time streaming data, archived data, and relay event
data, and provides a time-synchronized, wide-area view of your system.

The SEL-3378 synchrophasor vector processor (SVP) is a real-time synchropha-
sor programmable logic controller. Use the SVP to collect synchrophasor mes-
sages from relays and phasor measurement units (PMUs). The SVP time-aligns
incoming messages, processes these messages with an internal logic engine, and
sends control command to external devices to perform user-defined actions.
Additionally, the SVP can send calculated or derived data to devices such as
other SVPs, phasor data concentrators (PDCs), and monitoring systems.
In any installation, the relay can use only one of the synchrophasor message for-
mats, SEL Fast Message Synchrophasor, or C37.118, as selected by Global set-
ting MFRMT. The chosen format is available on multiple serial ports when port
setting(s) PROTO := PMU. C37.118 is available over Ethernet when the Port 5
setting EPMIP = Y.
With either the SEL Fast Message or C37.118 synchrophasor format, the relay
can receive control operation commands over the same channel used for synchro-
phasor data transmission. These commands are SEL Fast Operate messages,
which are described in
SEL Fast Meter, Fast Operate, Fast SER Messages, and
Fast Message Data Access on page 15.28
After enabling the data recording function with the Global EPMDR settings,
record synchrophasor data using the PMTRIG setting. When PMTRIG asserts,
the relay records synchrophasor data in binary format (IEEE C37.118 data format
compliant) for the duration specified with the PMLER setting. The relay stores
these files in the synchrophasor subdirectory in the relay.
You can configure the relay to receive C37.118 protocol synchrophasor data. The
relay receives the data over a serial connection and stores these data in Analog
Quantities. Time-alignment is automatic. Use the local phasor data and as many
as two remote sets of phasor data in SEL
OGIC
equations.
