A workshop on power system harmonics was organized in Stockholm January 2014. On the agenda among others a discussion what are main issues at moment and near future. Some of discussed that presented this paper its companion paper. In following will be addressed: appearance emission higher frequencies (supraharmonics); need for new improved standards; measurement data analysis.
Sensors for monitoring electrical parameters over an entire electricity network infrastructure play a fundamental role in protecting smart grids and improving the network's energy efficiency. When short circuit takes place grid it has to be sensed as soon possible reduce its fault duration along damage well personal injuries. Existing protection devices, which are used sense fault, range from classic analog electro-mechanics relays modern intelligent electronic devices (IEDs). However, both...
