2012 T and d Technical Program

TuTORIALSTuT01 C37.48.1 – A Guide for the Application, Opera-tion and Coordination of high-Voltage Current-Limiting FusesMonday, May 7, 2012, Room 311A 8:00 a.m. – 12:15 p.m.

Presenters: John Leach, semi-retired co-founder and former co-owner of Hi-Tech Fuses Inc.Dan Gardner, Thomas & Betts Corp.Alan Yerges, Cooper Power Systems

This tutorial, developed by the High Voltage Fuses Subcommittee of the IEEE PES Switchgear committee, presents information as to how different types of High Voltage (>1000 V) fuses work, and are applied, with an emphasis on current-limiting fuses. The tutorial is based on, and summarizes, IEEE C37.48.1, a guide first published in 2002. This was de-veloped in tutorial form as an outgrowth of efforts to incorporate full range current-limiting fuse technology into other fuse standards. During that process it was dis-covered that many of the users of current-limiting fuses were not fully aware of how the fuses worked and the reasons for typical application and coordination rules. The tutorial was therefore developed to teach and ex-plain key topics that need to be understood to correctly apply these fuses. It was felt that the needs are as rele-vant (or more so) today as then, so the guide was revised in 2011.

Gas insulated technology today covers gas insulated sub-stations (GIS) and gas insulated transmission lines (GIL). The GIS technology is now used worldwide since more than 40 years and in large numbers. GIL was mostly used world-wide inside substations or special applica-tions like cavern hydro power plant and find increasing interest also outside substations as an high power under-ground transmission technology. The use of gas-insulated technology in North america is increasing due to the limited space in metropolitan ar-eas, the high power ratings, the opposition coming from

www.ieeet-d.org

9the public and the high reliability and availability of gas insulated substations and transmission lines. SF6 is the main insulating gas, which has a high global warming potential and is therefore restricted in use and has to fol-low precise handling processes. International Standards are defining requirements, testing and commissioning for the products of gas insulated technology. The full day tutorial is structured in modules, which starts with basic information on the theory of gas-insu-lated technology. It gives deeper views on special topics related to SF6 GIS and GIL. A wide part of the tutorial is giving examples of typical applications and explains the reasons why GIS or GIL was chosen.

Session Summary: State and federal legislation and in-creased residential and commercial customer interest in renewable resources, energy reliability, and sustain-ability continue to put pressure on utilities to allow a greater penetration of distributed generation into their systems. Investigation continues into the possibilities of employing microgrids and dynamic islanding concepts to potentially increase system reliability, threatening to exact a paradigm shift in the way distribution systems are operated, maintained, and constructed. Engineers are left with the challenges of meeting these demands with an infrastructure that was not designed for such a purpose. Development of technical standards of prac-tice and contractual/market related standards as well as deployment of greater numbers of intelligent electronic devices on utility distribution systems continue to aid en-gineers, but are works in progress. Utilities are left with the decision on how far to go with significant changes in policies and practices while staying in position to deal with future market and technology developments. This

panel session will provide case studies of practical imple-mentations, research topics, and the latest updates on standards and the regulatory outlook. Questions and discussion are encouraged.

Panel Summary: Conservation Voltage Reduction (CVR) or voltage optimization refers to optimizing the service volt-age for the purpose of reducing power and/or energy con-sumption. Although CVR has been studied for many years, it has got renewed attention because of increasing empha-sis on improving distribution efficiency. Recent studies by Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance NEEA and Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) have shown CVR as one of the most attractive energy savings investments in terms of kilowatt-hour saved. With the advancement in CVR re-lated technology, many utilities have or are in the process of implementing CVR on their feeders. The critical question is how to quantify the benefits of CVR for a given distribution feeder. A lot of research is being done in this area to come up with approaches to quantify the energy savings and CVR factors (defined as percent reduction in load consumption divided by the corresponding percent reduction in voltage). This panel session provides an overview of Model and Veri-

Td10Wd1Pdistributed Generation Impacts (panel session)Wednesday, May 9, 2012, Room 311C 8:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. Sponsored by: Transmission and Distribution CommitteeChair: Bob Saint, National Rural Electric Cooperative As-sociation

Panel Summary: The interconnection of small scale distrib-uted generation on distribution systems has been occur-ring for some time. IEEE 1547, first established in 2003, has proven to be adequate for most of the situations that it was intended to address. However, as we are beginning to see penetration levels higher than envisioned when IEEE 1547 was first released, shortcomings of that standard are beginning to emerge. This panel session gives two examples of adverse impacts to the electric power system when IEEE 1547 is strictly followed, one on voltage stability of a re-gional transmission system and the other on distribution feeder voltage fluctuations. In addition, we will see how the two active working groups within the IEEE 1547 series of standards are addressing these kinds of issues; P1547.7 - Draft Guide to Conducting Distribution Impact Studies for Distributed Resource Interconnection and P1547.8 - Draft Recommended Practice for Establishing Methods and pro-cedures that Provide Supplemental Support for Implementa-tion Strategies for Expanded Use of IEEE Standard 1547.

Td11Wd1P Integrating Wind Power into Series-Compensated Transmis-sion Systems: Modeling and Controls (panel session)Wednesday, May 9, 2012, Room 311D8:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. Sponsored by: Transmission and Distribution CommitteeChair: Robert J. Nelson, Siemens

Panel Summary: The last few years have seen a growth in the planned and actual use of series compensation to accom-modate new wind capacity. In particular, the Competitive Renewable Energy Zone (CREZ) lines being developed for ERCOT will be series compensated. Other major transmis-sion projects in the West and in Canada are likely to feature series compensation as well. In consideration of the growth of series compensation, as well as some anomalous incidents associated with wind turbine operation in series compen-sated systems, the IEEE T&D Committee initiated action to sponsor two Panel Sessions on Integrating Wind Power into Series Compensated Transmission Systems. This first session will discuss background, theory, and design considerations. It consists of a panel of experts on series compensation and wind turbine design will discuss why series compensation will be used, what transmission design objectives are at-tained with the use of series compensation, and what char-acteristics of wind turbines need to considered to interface them with series compensated systems.

Td13Wd2P Electric Fields and Composite Insulators (panel session)Wednesday, May 9, 2012, Room 311H 10:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. Sponsored By: Transmission and Distribution CommitteeChair: Andrew Phillips, EPRI

Panel Summary: Composite insulators have been applied since the 1970s at transmission voltages for a range of rea-sons including lower cost, reducing contamination outages and addressing vandalism concerns. The electric field (E-field) distribution along the insulator is an important factor which impacts the life expectancy as high E-field magnitudes can result in a discharge activity which in-turn can damage the insulating material resulting in failure. In order to reduce the

high E-fields close to the ends of the insulator corona or grad-ing rings are applied. This panel session paper will present the impact of the E-field distribution on the short and long term performance of composite insulators; how to model the E-field distribution; approaches to design corona rings to man-age the E-field distribution; and laboratory testing to evaluate the performance of corona and grading rings.

Session Summary: With increased information, control and communications, a host of scheduling applications arises in emerging power systems. Analysis and computation of control settings and schedules for maintenance and energy resources are needed. These applications can be driven by economic indicators and electrical requirements. Specifically, integrated tools for determining inspection schedules and set points for both aggregate and component loads and inter-mittent sources, e.g. wind are needed. It is noted they are of particular concern for isolated systems and microgrids; thus, two examples will be presented.

Td16Th1P Wind Plant Short-Circuit Contributions (panel session)Thursday, May 10, 2012, Room 311F8:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. Sponsored By: Transmission and Distribution CommitteeChair: Ron Harley, Georgia Institute of Technology

Panel Summary: Wind plant electrical system designers and protection engineers have to take into consideration the characteristics of wind turbine generators when determining short-circuit duties of equipment and protective relay set-tings. Because of the wide range of commercially-available generators and limitations on available information due to proprietary issues, it is often necessary to make broad as-sumptions on the behavior of generators during faults and their short-circuit current contributions. This session is de-signed to provide attendees with a broad background on the types of wind turbine generators, their design, short-circuit characteristics, modeling, and model validation. Several dif-ferent wind turbine generator manufacturers will participate in this session. An overview of considerations for wind plant system design and power system protection issues will also be presented.

Td17Th1PMechanical Load Limits for high voltage Insulators (panel session)Thursday, May 10, 2012, Room 311G 9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. Sponsored By: Transmission and Distribution CommitteeChair: Tony Baker, K-Line Insulators

Panel Summary: High voltage insulators to satisfy overhead line load and strength requirements are currently selected based on their strength limit resistance. Most line compo-nents though are selected according to Load Resistance Fac-tor Design (LRFD) in the 2012 edition of the NESC. To ac-commodate LRFD for insulators, service limit resistances for ceramic and composite insulators must be determined and related to the rated strengths as given in current ANSI C29 Standards for insulators. Converting insulator rated strengths to service limit resistances will be described and suggestions for assigning strengths and strength factors for insulators for inclusion in future NESC editions will be discussed.
