Product catalog summary
Overview
The microPMU is a high-resolution device designed to measure and analyze power flows in distribution grids and microgrids. It offers micro-second resolution and precise accuracy, making it suitable for projects requiring detailed synchrophasor measurements for stability and impedance analysis. It supports real-time control applications via the IEEE C37.118.2-2011 interface.

Features
  • Ultra-accurate phasor measurements with a Total Vector Error (TVE) of 0.01%.
  • Simultaneous recording and streaming of synchrophasors at rates of 100/sec at 50Hz and 120/sec at 60Hz.
  • Supports voltage and current phasors, frequency, active/reactive powers, and power factor measurements.
  • Compatible with OpenPDC and PSL microPMU plotting software.
  • Stores 30 days of micro-synchrophasor measurements in internal memory, downloadable via FTP.
  • Configuration and firmware updates via FTP or HTTP.
  • Two operational modes: ultra-precise for grid stability analysis and low latency for control applications.
  • Easy installation in various locations such as electrical panels and distribution poles.
  • Includes a fully isolated GPS receiver with cable delay auto-compensation.

Applications
  • Monitoring and understanding the stability of microgrids and distribution grids.
  • Event identification and characterization.
  • Topology change detection.
  • Detection of cyber attack rehearsals at substations.
