PES / IAS / LM Joint Meeting


NOTICE - This session will be paid for by the North Jersey Section PES as a courtesy to our members and prospective members during these challenging times of COVID-19.  There will be no charge for participation and Continuing Education Unit credits.

This session is being offered as a GoToMeeting (details below).  

The seminar will cover:

Distribution Voltage Regulation Series: Methods to Regulate the Voltage on the Distribution Grid

Introduction: This is a 10 - session presentation meant to assist engineers in designing the proper voltage regulation 
architecture for the distribution grid. Each session takes approximately 45-50 minutes with a 10-15 
minute period at the end for questions. The presentations should prove beneficial to technicians and 
engineers responsible for distribution standards and design, distribution planning engineers, power 
quality engineers as well as SCADA/ communications engineers. Below is a brief description of each 
session.

Part 9) Advanced Features 

This session covers advanced features in regulator/LTC controls as well as capacitor controls. This 
session is looks at how this features can help assist in detecting power quality issues as well as to 
validate distribution feeder models for both fault power and load allocations. Advanced features data 
trending, harmonic monitoring, waveform capture, sequence-of-events and predictive maintenance 
features.

Part 10) Putting it all Together

This final session summarizes the entire series and shows example feeder designs using the principals 
discussed throughout the sessions.
