In general Distribution System Operators are more focused on Medium Voltage (MV) distribution grids as higher voltage levels contribute more to the average interruption duration than Low Voltage (LV) distribution grids. This focus has led to a reduction of the average interruption duration on MV level, which consequently led to a relative increase in costs and interruption duration on LV level. Therefore DSOs want to have more insight into interruptions on LV level. A first step is to analyse patterns in the failure of LV components. By analysing interruptions and assets it can be concluded that failures on LV level are not (completely) related to age. Also differences in failure rate between components and regions can be observed. These patterns ask for performing a more complex statistical analysis in order to investigate other predictors for outages and for assessing the condition of LV grids.

The realization of the German Energiewende requires the use of innovative methods. The project EnEff: Stadt: Campus Lichtwiese aims to implement the Energiewende for an exemplary district. With a separated campus of Technische Universitat Darmstadt a suitable quarter is used for the investigations. To fulfill the Energiewende the expertise of electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, architecture and computer science are combined to investigate the energy-efficient development of the campus by the use of intelligent coupling of different energy sectors. The goal of the project is a concept of a self-regulating energy campus, an autonomously operating system. Therefore a simulation model with exact load profiles is needed for the campus. To simultaneously raise awareness of the resident departments, the load profile of each department is analyzed separately. Therefore the buildings of the campus need to be clustered with respect to the departments. Furthermore the lot size of all buildings is analyzed and categorized. The load profiles are measured for different seasonal and social dependance to obtain meaningful data. Measurements are taken at every MV-/LV-transformer of the campus for a week to obtain typical curves for workdays and for the weekend. At last the origin of the discovered high base load is analyzed.

Designing a MV distribution-level power link for flexible operation between AC and DC comes with many technical challenges. Of the most glaring are how to: switch between three-phase AC and bipolar DC; ensure N-l contingency; determine protection sensitivity and selectivity; and how to handle space charge build-up. This paper gives a detailed analysis on the challenges and technical solutions to these topics, and offers a design for the flexible DC-link thought to be the most realistic for operation in a real MV distribution grid application.

In an ungrounded transformer tertiary system, most often the phase-to-ground voltages are slightly unbalanced. Therefore all equipment supplied by the tertiary must have extra insulation to withstand the expected phase-to-ground overvoltages that arise from such unbalance. However, in a recent 3 ⨯ 250MV A single phase transformer bank replacement project, it was found that the tertiary phase-to-ground overvoltages were abnormally high therefore the transformer bank could not be put back into service. After extensive investigation, it was found that the transformer interwinding capacitances and tertiary phase-to-ground capacitances were unbalanced, resulting in excessive unbalance in the tertiary phase-to-ground voltages, which was directly responsible for the overvoltage. A mitigation plan was developed. The plan was to modify the tertiary phase-to-ground capacitances in such a way that the voltage unbalance due to the asymmetry in the inter-winding capacitances cancels the voltage unbalance due to the asymmetry in the phase-to-ground capacitances. Based on theoretical derivation and EMTP simulation, two CVTs (Capacitive Voltage Transformer) were selected from the warehouse and installed on the transformer tertiary. The voltage unbalance was successfully mitigated and the transformer bank was put back into service. The mitigation methodology developed in the project achieved significant cost saving and will have great value in future project development.

High wind speeds during hurricanes cause damage to power distribution lines resulting in power outages that last from days to months, depending on the severity of the storm. This highlights the need for accurate risk assessment procedures for decision making purposes. This paper presents a framework for assessing the hurricane resilience of power distribution systems considering the impact of protective devices on reconfiguration and restoration of the distribution network. The framework is applied to an actual distribution network composed of 7051 wood poles located in southeast of the US. Results indicate that for the distribution network reconfiguration is not effective as there is not enough redundancy in the system. However, by considering the repair prioritization and assigning enough number of repair crews, the system can recover quickly.

In the grid-connected system, LCL filters are playing an important role in eliminating the switching frequency compared with the traditional LC filter. Digital notch filter can be used for solving the resonant frequency problem by cancelling the resonant peak. This paper presents an adaptive digital notch filter based on an estimation controller for the grid impedance and the parameters of the notch filter can be adjusted by the estimated grid impedance value. Moreover, the notch filter design and the system stability is also presented in theoretical analysis. Finally, the simulation results shows effectiveness of the estimation algorithm and digital notch filter's function for active damping.

Electric vehicles (EVs) are considered as portable sources of power which can be integrated with any infrastructure, including power grid at different geographical locations, forming a dynamically varying system. Grid-to-vehicle (G2V) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) connections are considered as essential parts of the future smart grids which can considerably enhance the performance of the system in different aspects. The control strategy for integration of EVs plays a key role in enhancing the performance of power system. The aim of this paper is to study different types of control strategies for integration of electric vehicles with power grid. The control strategies that are used for G2V and V2G connections include multi-agent control, frequency control, aggregated control, virtual synchronous machine-based control, etc. which are reviewed in detail. Detailed comparisons between these control methods are presented in this paper. This paper further highlights the transient stability of power system on both distribution and wide-area levels.

With the evolution of substation automation standards (IEC61850), it is possible to share protection and control information over wide-area network (WAN). The modern microprocessor based intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) equipped with IEC61850 communication capability allows implementation of wide-area protection and coordination between different substations with the help of virtual local area network (VLAN). IEC 61850-90-1/90-5 offers detailed guidelines on implementing VLAN based communication between substations that would enable to transmit GOOSE messages over WAN. In this paper, the implementation of inter substation coordination via routable GOOSE (R-GOOSE) is demonstrated and distance protection with permissive under reaching transfer trip (PUTT) and interlocking applications between two substations are studied. The main goal of the study is to demonstrate basic R-GOOSE message implementation at a laboratory level for wide-area protection and coordination applications.

Rapid growth of distributed energy resources has prompted increasing interest in integrated Transmission (T) and Distribution (D) modeling. This paper presents the results of a distributed generation from solar photovoltaics (DGPV) impact assessment study that was performed using a synthetic T &D model. The primary objective of the study was to present a new approach for DGPV impact assessment, where along with detailed models of transmission and distribution networks, consumer loads were modeled using the physics of end-use equipment, and DGPV was geographically dispersed and connected to the secondary distribution networks. The study highlights (i) how a lack of DGPV forecasting can increase the Area Control Error (ACE) at the transmission level for high penetration levels; and (ii) how capturing transmission voltage changes using integrated T &D can change simulated distribution voltage profiles and voltage regulator operations between integrated T &D and distribution-only simulations.
