Utilities today are facing unprecedented challenges due to more stringent regulations, environmental concerns, and a growing demand for reliable electricity. Meanwhile, according to U.S. Department of Energy?s statistics, 70% of the grid's transmission lines and power transformers are more than 25 years old. Without upgrades and enhancements, the grid will continue to age, increasing the risk of s...Show More
Prevention of Power Grid Blackouts Using Intentional Islanding Scheme
Intentional islanding is often conducted as the last resort to preserve the electric grid from severe blackouts. The intentional islanding scheme deliberately segregates the power system into a number of self-sustained islands to enhance the transient stability of the power network. In this study, a spectral clustering algorithm is presented to obtain an islanding solution, which results in minima...Show More

Fault Location Using Sparse Synchrophasor Measurement of Electromechanical-Wave Oscillations
This paper presents a novel system-wide fault-location method for transmission lines utilizing electromechanical-wave oscillation propagation phenomena. The method uses synchrophasor measurements during disturbances obtained from phasor measurement units sparsely located in the network. The method determines the time of arrival of electromechanical waves propagating from the fault point to sparsel...Show More
Several major blackouts were caused by distance relay mis-operation. Distance relay mis-operation may occur following a large disturbance in the system causing power swing and out-of-step conditions. If an on-line fault analysis tool is able to detect power swing or out-of-step conditions and indicate mis-operation of relays, the operator may be notified to switch back the healthy transmission lin...Show More

The topology (transmission line) switching to achieve economic and reliability gains in the power grid has been proposed some time ago. This approach did not gain much attention until recently when large penetration of renewable generation created incentives to use transmission line switching to control sudden changes in power flows and mitigate contingencies caused by the generation variability. ...Show More
Transmission-Line Fault Analysis Using Synchronized Sampling
An automated analysis approach, which can automatically characterize fault and subsequent relay operation, is the focus of this paper. It utilizes synchronized samples captured during transients from both ends of the transmission line to detect, classify, and locate transmission-line faults and can verify that the tripped line has indeed experienced a fault. The proposed method is tested for sever...Show More
The tapped lines are usually used to supply a customer such as small communities or industrial facilities with an economic solution that is less expensive than building a full substation. Locating faults in such lines are difficult due to the effect of infeed/outfeed current from tapped lines as well as reactance effect. The proposed method applies generalized models of fault loop voltage and curr...Show More

This paper describes a novel adaptive out-of-step detection algorithm based on dissimilar measurement approaches. Two superimposed measurements enable the algorithm to detect fast as well as slow power swings. Both methods recognize power swings right from the beginning of the swing impedance movement. The first principle is based on continuous rate-of-change measurement of the traveling swing imp...Show More
