Development of power system test bed for data mining of synchrophasors data, cyber-attack and relay testing in RTDS
This paper describes the development of a hardware-in-the-loop Real Time Digital Simulator (RTDS) enabled power system test bed used to support various types of research. Lack of access to actual utility synchrophasors data at the university level hinders studies on various subjects of interest including power system event detection, situational awareness, wide area monitoring and control, and cyber security. This paper explains a way to facilitate the researcher with reliable synchrophasor data and a power system test bed for different applications such as event detection, and cyber security resiliency studies. Various power system events and scenarios are modeled and simulation results are presented.
