The North American SynchroPhasor Initiative's (NASPI's) mission is to improve power systems reliability and visibility through wide-area measurement and control by fostering the use and capabilities of synchrophasor technology. This report is prepared by the Data & Network Management Task Team...

Introduction The mission of the NASPI Distribution Task Team is to foster the use and capabilities of networked PMUs at the medium-voltage distribution level, beyond the substation. This group will share information in support of effective research, development and deployment of distribution PMUs...

Effort being led by Jeffrey Taft (PNNL).

Phasor measurement units (PMUs) are becoming prevalent on the power system, as is their integration into advanced power system applications. Performance characteristics for the PMU devices are formalized under IEEE Standard C37.118.1-2011 [1]. Formalizing the data requirements for PMU-based...

In 2007-09, DOE worked with NASPI to fund the development of an architecture framework for synchrophasor data networks. That “NASPInet” framework has been the prevailing guidance since that time, and various NASPInet elements were incorporated and tested in several of the SGIG synchrophasor projects...

A white paper by the NASPI Distribution Task Team (January 2018). The purpose of this white paper is to provide an introductory reference for industry and academic practitioners interested in exploring the use of synchrophasors and other time-synchronized measurements for supporting power...

Compliance with the NERC requirements for Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) for synchrophasor systems in the Version 5 paradigm seems to be a matter of some uncertainty for those in the synchrophasor user community. In the words of the Edison Electric Institute, an organization that...

Use Case The objective of Phase Identification is to recognize, track and report the connectivity and loading of Phases A,B,C through the distribution system so as to prevent excessive phase imbalance. Background Distribution system maps and models tend to lack reliable information about which...

Use Case Disaggregation of net metered distributed generation (DG) from customer load uses high-precision measurements on the utility side of the meter to estimate the actual generation and amount of load offset behind the meter. Background When the distribution utility lacks access to separate load...
