Real world synchrophasor uses
Real world synchrophasor uses
(OP)
I've been doing a lot of reading about synchrophasors lately. I'm finding a lot of promises about what the technology "can" or "will" do, but little in terms of real world installations and uses.
Can anyone point me to a real world installation where synchrophasor data is actually being used, preferably in real time operations?
Thanks

I think there a requirement as part of WECC reliability issues and may also be some white papers at the WECC web site if the various utilities that have instituted it.
Hope that give you a start anyway.

There is some good stuff in those documents from SEL.
I couldn't find anything specific on BC Hydro... It looks like most of WECC is in the same place as PJM, MISO and others - having data but not really using it for anything other than academic exercises yet.

Reading between the lines, this sounds to me like a synchrophasor / PMU application; but are the two terms synonymous?

I guess DFR/DDR has yet a place in fault analysis. They are valuable technical data to resolve dispute between independent producers and utilities in case of blackout.
PowerPlants have been installed DFR in both place: power house and substation.
