Barcelona 12 -15 May 2003 Major technical difficult points and solutions • It is impossible to direct access the data from the databases of other systems – message request transmitting and receiving program • A huge volume of real-time data process – to render all the time- and energy-consuming task to be allocated to be done between one and three A. M when there is the lightest database load Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1. 4 – Question Z 6

Barcelona 12 -15 May 2003 System parameter maintenance • setting of all important parameters, and management and maintenance of the offline data. • off-line data input and some other essential functions to increase the flexibility, adaptability and safety for the customer. Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1. 4 – Question Z 7

Barcelona 12 -15 May 2003 Reactive power and voltage equipment management • equipment desk account and device defects • to work out reactive voltage management materials • Include: – loaded voltage-regulation capacitors /reactors /automatic voltageregulation control devices /10 KV line reactive compensation capacitors / 380 V low-voltage reactive dynamic compensation boxes /capacitors of the customer/ statistical-type voltage monitor Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1. 4 – Question Z 8

Barcelona 12 -15 May 2003 Voltage deviation monitoring module • monitoring of the voltage deviation of subordinate units and main monitoring points • Data resources: SCADA, LM, DMS and monitoring points • Functions: – Statistical functions – Monitoring functions – Inquiry functions Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1. 4 – Question Z 9

Barcelona 12 -15 May 2003 Load Management and Power Factor Statistics • monitoring of the reactive power equilibrium • Data resources: SCADA, LM, DMS and remote meter readings of power • Functions: – The network-wide reactive load and power factor – The regional reactive load and power factor – The active load, reactive load and power factor for all voltage grades – … Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1. 4 – Question Z 10

Barcelona 12 -15 May 2003 Other Modules • Intelligent analysis • System power flow distribution diagram • Reports management Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1. 4 – Question Z 11

Barcelona 12 -15 May 2003 Application results of system • System was put into use at the beginning of 2002 • More than 200 voltage monitoring points • 35 k. V to 110 k. V the line losses were reduced by 0. 5 % and resulting in 15 million k. Wh saved Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1. 4 – Question Z 12

Barcelona 12 -15 May 2003 Conclusions • The Reactive Power & Voltage Real Time Monitoring System had been developed on the information and data base of existent automation systems. • The monitoring system can help relative person to know the system status so they can take the optimal measures to improve the voltage quality and reduce the line loss of the system. • The Monitoring system had shown good results since the system put into operation. • It is needed to put into the system the monitoring of the new indexes such as harmonic wave, three-phase unbalance, voltage fluctuation transient change and voltage drop etc. Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1. 4 – Question Z 13
