Accurate models are used to evaluate the lightning induced overvoltages, in order to estimate the effects of arresters spacing and characteristics.

A GFA can have a sensor and a controller installed to detect price, voltage, or frequency signals and then adjust its thermostat setpoint or turn on/off according to certain control logics. By using the congestion price as a signal to shift GFA power consumption from high-price periods to low-price periods to reduce load in load pocket areas, transmission line congestion can be successfully mitigated. The magnitude of GFA load reduction and the location of the GFA resources are critical to alleviating congestion on targeted transmission lines while not causing other lines to congest.

The networks are required to support real-time communications and take measures to avoid overloading and failures. These should ensure QoS and reliability for each application.
