Distribution Voltage Regulation Seminar - Parts 9 & 10
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.
