Abstract

Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) is an instrument that has been developed for improving the protection first and then control and monitoring system in smart power grid. This advanced technology may be used to provide high-speed and coherent real-time information about the power system that is not obtainable in conventional supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. This research work deals with the study of the conventional SCADA system that is based on RTU's and proposes how to integrate this technology PMU in SCADA system for improving its performance. To validate the present work, the performance of developed SCADA system is tested by power system Simulink model under different conditions. The obtained simulation results are satisfactory.
