Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1.4 – Question Z Barcelona May Other Modules Intelligent analysis System power flow distribution diagram Reports management

Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1.4 – Question Z Barcelona May Application results of system System was put into use at the beginning of 2002 More than 200 voltage monitoring points 35 kV to 110 kV the line losses were reduced by 0.5 % and resulting in 15 million kWh saved

Zhumei MIAO China Session 3 – Block 1.4 – Question Z Barcelona May 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.
