Measurements in a smart grid concept

Smart distributive grid is the most dynamic subsystem of the smart grid, which is the prime topic to researches around the world, not only in electrical sciences, but in technology, society etc. This project will research one of the key segments of technical and technological foundation for smart distributive grid – metering and measuring methods. As necessary, some problems of telecommunication and processing measurement results will be covered to a certain extent. Topics that this project addresses are: a) linear measurements at low and medium voltages; b) measuring of non-sinusoidal signals, by applying the developed stochastic A/D converter and stochastic processor of orthogonal transformations; c) measuring of non-stationary signals – faults, diagnostics, protection; d) parallel measurements, parallel local processing and communication; e) processing of measurement results – grid load recognition; f) project of integrated measurement devices for monitoring, quality control of electrical energy and smart metering g) development and application of concept of virtual instrumentation in smart distributive grid; h) further development and application of method of measurement over the interval. The final result of the project will be a new measuring technology that will be applicable and competitive in practice.
