SCADA Data Vs. SynchrophasorsSCADA Data Vs. Synchrophasors
• SCADA – Conventional Situational Awareness Technology
• Advantages of Synchrophasor Technology• Direct measurement (as opposed to calculated values using
model-based SE solutions from SCADA data) • 8/14/03 Blackout: AEP SE could not converge; PMU
data kept coming• Time-stamped data, accurate within tens of micro-seconds
of UTC • High resolution (10-60 samples per second)

Technology PromiseTechnology Promise
• Synchrophasor Technology• Can provide situational awareness on a
sub-second basis over wide area• Instantaneous measure of power system
stress between wide area locations• Instantaneous measure of power system
dynamics at given location• MRI of power system vs. X-Ray by SCADA
technology• PMU data well suited to activate automated
controls

AEP/Texas– AEP is taking a leading role in DOE/ERCOT efforts to
install synchrophasors in ERCOT– AEP was the first utility in ERCOT
• to install PMUs
• Provide real-time data feed to ERCOT
– Work in progress to display modal analysis results in AEP Transmission Operations
AEP/East– Synchrophasor infrastructure includes 25 PMUs

• Bodes well to maintain reliable bulk power system
• Introduces inefficiencies
• Can we rely on real time corrective controls under selected operating scenarios, instead?
– Today’s controls too myopic
• Designed to address local abnormalities
• Centralized coordinated controls are rare
– PMU Data
• High resolution & instantaneous
• Could be used to develop coordinated, centralized wide area controls
