SE Problem:

Given a set of measurements z, estimate x

State Estimation: Main Tool for

System Monitoring and Control

X = [Vi/qi ]

Vi/qi

for radial feeders x > load SE -> Load Monitoring

Basic Requirements: -Need accurate system model -Need redundant measurements

Very Limited Measurements

Accurate System Model

• accurate system data

- Lines, DT

• Need monitoring

- Switches

- Volt/Var devices

- DG and Storage

DSE: State of the Art

Load Data: Historical Data

• Customer Billing --> class, kWh

• Load Surveys --> Load Curves

• Model: Feeder topology is updated manually

• Limited Real Time Data:

Use Load Data as pseudo-measurements

• SE methods: - Power Flow

- WLSE nodal, WLSE branch current

- Others

DSE enables on-line monitoring of

DSE for System Monitoring & Control

• Load & Voltage profiles system loading control actions

- Volt/Var Control - Conservation Voltage Reduction

Feeder restoration

• Feeder Topology
