Abstract:
The Smart Grid will enable the customers to actively decide their energy choices and to accommodate their generation and storage options. The same grid will provide higher reliability and consistent power quality, which are required by our digital economy, by optimizing the use of assets and the grid operation. The future power grids will come into reality by enabling intelligent communication across sensing, measurement, and control layers that are embedded into the existing power systems. This paper discusses the results from tests performed on two sensors, a combined voltage and current sensor and an optical voltage sensor.
