Synchronized Measurements
• Synchrophasors are precise grid measurements
using GPS signals (within 1ms of UTC)
– now available from monitors
called phasor measurement units (PMUs)
• As PMU measurements are time-aligned to a common
reference, they enable a precise and comprehensive
view of the utility network or entire interconnection
• PMU measurements are taken at high speed
(e.g. 30 - 120 observations per second)
compared to one every 4 seconds with
conventional technology
• Enable a better indication of
grid stress, and can be used
to trigger control actions to
maintain reliability

Preventing Blackouts
Widespread electric outages are a symptom of strategies for grid management
Analysis of recent disturbancesreveals common threads
o Learn from the past and proven
methods to mitigate
o Blackout propagation should
be arrested
o Restoration time could be reduced

Description
In the final decades of the nineteenth century, three brilliant and visionary titans
of America's Gilded Age--Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla, and George
Westinghouse--battled bitterly as each vied to create a vast and powerful
electrical empire. In "Empires of Light, historian Jill Jonnes portrays this
extraordinary trio and their riveting and ruthless world of cutting-edge science,
invention, intrigue, money, death, and hard-eyed Wall Street millionaires.
At the heart of the story are Thomas Alva Edison, the nation's most famous and folksy inventor, creator
of the incandescent light bulb and mastermind of the world's first direct current electrical light networks;
the Serbian wizard of invention Nikola Tesla, elegant, highly eccentric, a dreamer who revolutionized the
generation and delivery of electricity; and the charismatic George Westinghouse, Pittsburgh inventor
and tough corporate entrepreneur, an industrial idealist who in the era of gaslight imagined a world
powered by cheap and plentiful electricity and worked heart and soul to create it.
Edison struggled to introduce his radical new direct current (DC) technology into the hurly-burly of New
York City as Tesla and Westinghouse challenged his dominance with their alternating current (AC), thus
setting the stage for one of the eeriest feuds in American corporate history, the War of the Electric
Currents. The battlegrounds: Wall Street, the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, Niagara Falls, and, finally, the
death chamber--Jonnes takes us on the tense walk down a prison hallway and into the sunlit room
where William Kemmler, convicted ax murderer, became the first man to die in the electric chair.
"Empires of Light is the grippinghistory of electricity, the "mysterious fluid," and how the fateful collision
of Edison, Tesla, and Westinghouse left the world utterly transformed.

Electrify the World – Author: Jill Jonnes
