Short circuits are the main causes of voltage sags, which combined with the sensitivity of modern equipment have resulted in significant financial losses due to the significant number of industrial shutdowns. In order to carry out the study, data from voltage sags monitoring in an industrial consumer over seventeen months were evaluated. Equally, the electrical faults historical of the transmission network to which this industry is inserted were utilized in this research. The severity of the events was quantified according to IEEE 1564 standardization, which defines the use of this unique indicator in the voltage sags evaluation. From the simultaneity of these contingencies, a unique dataset was obtained to realize the knowledge discovery through Weka software. Such data mining resulted in the relation between the voltage sags events and those of electrical faults in the power system. Additionally, the most critical points of the system were identified as well as their equipment, which can serve as a basis for vulnerability area analysis and for mitigation solutions to short-term voltage variations in any power system.","PeriodicalId":267301,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE PES Transmission & Distribution Conference and Exhibition - Latin America (T&D-LA)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125836142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the distribution of the payment obtained for some elements of the Peruvian transmission system differs largely from that which would be obtain by applying the superposition principle. This work proposes a distribution alternative based on the use of Generalized Generation Distribution Factors (GGDF) that gets results equal to those obtained applying the superposition theorem.","PeriodicalId":267301,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE PES Transmission & Distribution Conference and Exhibition - Latin America (T&D-LA)","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126572753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ADMS platform has the characteristic and similarity of a Supervision Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and allows simulations of operation, planning and prevention of contingency situations, from data obtained in the entire electrical system. The ADMS platform is being developed by a Research and Development (R&D) project. The Power Flow Test (PFT) algorithm presented here is the first developed code for testing on the ADMS platform.

When MCSR is connected directly to power line, it should perform all functions of a fixed line reactor, including secondary arc extinction during single-phase auto-reclosing (SPAR) cycles. A feature of MCSR design is the presence of a delta-connected winding, which causes strong electromagnetic coupling between phases of MCSR and increases the secondary arc in-feed current. Therefore, it is of scientific and practical interest to develop measures aimed at limiting the arc current to a level, at which reliable SPAR is ensured, also minimizing recovery voltage and, as a consequence, reducing SPAR dead time. One of the possible solutions is to use a neutral reactor in combination with boosting MCSR reactive power consumption. The paper is dedicated to the development of this approach. Quasi-stationary modes of MCSR with a neutral reactor are considered during SPAR dead time from the point of view of the impact on the secondary arc current. A comparison is made with a traditional solution – fixed line shunt reactor with a neutral reactor, when both solutions provide the same degree of compensation of the arc in-feed current.","PeriodicalId":267301,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE PES Transmission & Distribution Conference and Exhibition - Latin America (T&D-LA)","volume":"15 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114032283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
