0242: CPF: Toolkit for Standard EAP Exercise Development

This toolkit guides the EAP exercise design team through all the steps needed in creating a successful, comprehensive EAP exercise. The critical steps for the exercise design are identified and discussed, and helpful suggestions are provided for critical milestones of the exercise design process.This toolkit includes example scenarios (with historical references), messages, and report forms that may be used for a dam owner’s comprehensive EAP exercise. Suggestions for engaging external pla

5110: An Automated Method for Assessment of Harmonics From NonLinear Loads and Distributed Generators

One of the major challenges in enforcing harmonic compliance has to do with quantifying the net harmonic contribution from a given customer system (or distributed generator). The customer or generator is only responsible for the harmonic distortion it produces and should only be penalized for this amount of distortion. The problem is complicated because measurements at a point of common coupling (PCC) between a customer (or generator) and the system can include harmonic distortion that is caus

5067: Replacement/ "End of Life" Criteria for Distribution System Assets

By means of a literature search and utility survey this project studied methodologies for determining End of Life (EOL) for distribution utility assets. Technical EOL criteria are described as well as a simple process for relating EOL criteria to business risk. An easy to use Net Present Value (NPV) model is provided to facilitate financial comparison of replacement alternatives with a realistic example of how it can be utilized. Recommendations for best practice with respect to EOL decision-mak

3290: Application of Artificial Intelligence in Overhead Transmission Lines Maintenance

Power systems are complex and have a significant impact on modern life. Modernization, economic growth, and social progress are influenced by power system technology. Advanced protection and control techniques are required to operate these complex systems in a safe and reliable manner. Transmission lines are the backbones of power systems, and they are generally designed to avoid the impacts of a variety of unpredictable events. However, power systems are facing the effects of unexpected conditi

0416: CPF: Benchmarking Performance Optimization

This study comprised a survey of current utility practices in relation to the characterization of generating unit performance, as well as the development of an associated Best Practice.The survey was sent to 39 hydro-generating utilities. The main information requested in these surveys included high-level system information, methods used by the utilities in defining the performance characteristics of their generating units, and how they make use of this information. In addition, the methods used

0376: Safe Protection of Hydro Unit Operating at Runaway Speed

The objectives of this study are: to identify the critical areas of a hydro unit that can be adversely affected or damaged as a consequence of the unit reaching runaway speed, to provide a guide for condition assessment of such units, and to identify precautions and protections that can be implemented to mitigate or prevent runaway events. The critical areas of a hydro unit were identified using engineering literature and common industry practices. The unique vulnerabilities of these critical ar

3706: Power Connections for Grounding Systems

This report identifies determinants for the quality of grounding power connectors, as well as their preparation, the effect of operating factors on degradation mechanisms, the rate of degradation and recommended installation practices. Further, a critical review of the most advanced power connection degradation mechanisms is given, including an analysis on the effectiveness of various mitigating methods used to limit the deleterious effects of different degradation mechanisms. Recommendations fo

0140: Impacts of Cyclic Operation on Maintenance Programs

Many of the conventional and combined cycle (CCGT) power plants, which have been in operation for a number of years, are presently being subjected to frequent start-stop cycles for longer periods of time. The reasons for this change in operating mode (from base load to cyclic operation) are related to economic factors, environmental drivers, market regulations, privatization of the power industry and the increasing use of non-dispatchable power sources. Whatever the reasons for change in the ope

3902: Guide for IEC 61850 Standard Applications

IEC 61850 is an international standard defining data, services, and specifications that regulate the communication with intelligent electronic devices in the substation. Standard is much more than a conventional communication protocol and is intended to support the interoperability among the IEDs, provide a safe method to utilize the modern communication technology in substation, and gradually be applied into other power system domains, such as hydro, wind, and distributed energy resources (DER)
