A Method for the Design of UFLS Scheme with Dynamic Correction

Abstract

This paper presents an adaptive Under Frequency Load Shedding scheme based on Wide Area Measurement System. Due to the lack of enough adaptability to the operation state of the system, the traditional successive approximation under frequency load shedding method will cause excessive cut or undercut problems inevitably. This method consists first in a comprehensive weight index including load characteristics and inertias of generators. Then active-power deficit calculation based on the Low-order Frequency Response Model, concerning the effect of voltage was put forward. Finally, a dynamic correction of the load shedding amount was proposed to modify the scheme. This approach was applied to IEEE-39 system and the simulation results indicated that the proposed method was effective in reducing the load shedding amount as well as the frequency recovery time.

An approach for a multi-stage under-frequency based load shedding scheme for a power system network

“…In [16] a method on how to implement a dynamic correction for the UFLS scheme was designed. The method firstly determines a comprehensive weight index that includes load characteristics and inertias of generators.…”
