Accurate Frequency Measurement: Essential Insights with PMI Recorders
This white paper explores the methods and significance of measuring electrical line frequency using PMI recorders. It details how frequency is captured, logged, and analyzed, highlights the high correlation between geographically separated measurements, and underscores the growing importance of frequency monitoring in distributed and isolated power systems as microgrids and distributed generation expand.
Key topics include:
- Introduction to Frequency Measurement
- How PMI Recorders Measure Frequency
- Data Logging and Memory Considerations
- Interpreting Frequency Data
- Case Studies: Frequency Correlation Across Distances
- Impacts of Local Loads and Phase Shifts
- Frequency Monitoring in Isolated and Distributed Systems
Why utilities should care:
Understanding precise frequency measurement enables improved grid stability, supports the integration of distributed generation, and ensures reliable operation in isolated power systems. As microgrids proliferate, robust frequency monitoring becomes critical for system health and regulatory compliance.
