1 1 Cascade-Based Planning Analysis Robert W. Cummings NERC Senior Director of Engineering and Reliability Initiatives
2 WHAT SHOULD BE STUDIED 2
3 3 Tenets of Cascading Analysis Why do it? Learn from History What is a credible combinations of events? What should I think might get involved? Be imaginative Murphy is! Be a Student of the System!! Constantly observe how your system behaves normally and when under stress How does your system interact with the rest of the Interconnection? Practice simulating actual events Good for model validation Helps avoid complacency
4 4 Some Trends in Event Analysis 1. Protection system misoperations (39) 2. Unexpected Gen. Turbine Control Action (33) 3. Transmission equipment failures (18) (most initiating) 4. Voltage sensitivity of gen. aux. power systems (13) 5. Human Error (12) 6. Near-term load forecasting error (6) 7. Wiring errors (incidental) (5) 8. Relay loadability (5) 9. Inter-area oscillations (5) 10. SPS & RAS Misoperations (5)
5 5 Two Top Disturbance Elements 33 Unexpected generator turbine control actions 29 in 8 events 2 units CAUSAL in a system separation event 13 Voltage and/or frequency sensitivity of generation auxiliary power systems (not included above) or plant / Unit Digital Control Systems Problem: THESE BEHAVIORS ARE NOT MODELED OR STUDIED Boiler and Turbine controls are not modeled Understand roll of controls action Power-Load Unbalance (PLU) Typical dynamic analysis only analyzing t = 0 to t = 20 seconds control actions can go well beyond that What about fuel system controls?
6 6 Planning a Cascading Study Be imaginative! You may have to design study methodology to mimic past disturbances to see if the system is still susceptible Think in bus-breaker mode Bus-line model thinking will not get you there Break-to-breaker study needed to analyze protection system misoperations Know your protection system configurations Directional distance, reach, differentials, breaker failure local or remote, Remedial Action Schemes, transfer tripping, etc. Expect the analysis to piece-wise slices of time to mimic the developing overloads or potential voltage collapses
7 7 Planning a Cascading Study (cont.) What parameters do you have to monitor within the study to tell you what would be the next step of the cascade? Look for overloaded lines How overloaded are they? Voltages below 0.9 per unit How low? Results of one run flow into another Reactive flow into both ends of a line? Think about controls!! Inverter controls play a part too! Behavior during protracted faults breaker failure (to operate) emulation SLG faults transition to multi-phase in cycles Longer faults evolve into 3-phase faults
8 8 Planning a Cascading Study (cont.) Protracted faults mean protracted low voltages UVLS schemes? Inverter behavior during low voltages Inverter blocking current injection? Inverter tripping? Know your loads! Know your station load composition residential, commercial, industrial, etc. Helps characterize load behavior under abnormal conditions Loads with high-quality power requirements may leave the system Voltage-sensitive or frequency sensitive loads must be monitored during the study
9 9 Study Practices Cardinal Rule of forensic event analysis Everything happens for a reason!! There is no sympathy in the power system Think like a protection system or plant control system What the heck did it see?? Why did it react the way it did? Take advantage of all available disturbance monitoring data (PRC-002) Leave no questions unanswered Don t be myopic in the scope of your analysis! Examine the Interconnection to ensure there were no wider area impacts Timing is everything! Creating a detailed sequence of events is crucial!
10 10 Study Practices (Continued) Cascading typically starts slow and progresses as multiple things go wrong Know the cascade players Triggering event lightning arrestor failure Causal events Breaker fails to operate protection system failure Contributory events Protection system miscoordination widens impact Coincidental events It was a dark and stormy night Resultant events fault progressed from single-phase to multi-phase
