Examples

  • The Energy Department has earmarked tens of millions of dollars in stimulus funds to the deployment of more synchrophasor systems.

    Buzzword: Synchrophasor 2010

  • Reasonable guesses, but a synchrophasor is actually a system upgrade for an electricity substation that allows power transmission to be measured in real time 30 to 60 measurements per second, unlike the once-every-four-seconds measurements that substations currently rely on.

    Buzzword: Synchrophasor 2010

  • A synchrophasor has several components, including a phasor-management unit, or PMU, which is installed inside a substation; GPS technology, which allows various PMUs to communicate with one another; and a centralized computer system, which provides an instant, comprehensive grid diagnostic.
