dc.description.abstract | Fast voltage collapse and delayed voltage recovery are a growing concern in the power industry. Although there are several well-known methods to combat fast voltage collapse and delayed voltage recovery, additional methods can bring further stability to the power system. The powerful microprocessor based distribution relay, Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories-451 (SEL-451), is utilized here to counteract voltage instability that results from excessive induction motor loads on the power system. SEL-451 is used as a predictive tool to predict future voltage levels. These future voltage levels are then used by the relay to decide if undervoltage load shedding is needed. | en_US |
