High-Voltage Metrology for Electric Energy and Supply Reliability

In the paper the new HV measurement technology under development in the recently started EU project ‘ENSURE’ are presented.

The lower power quality and shrinking inertia of renewable generation puts new demands on monitoring, controlling and balancing energy flows in the electricity grid. This calls for new high-voltage (HV) metrology solutions to support the HV manufacturing industry.

 

The recently started EU project ‘ENSURE’ is addressing this need by developing new HV measurement technology in four areas: wideband live connectable current or voltage sensors to monitor and calibrate substation instrumentation; new capability for determining the losses in power transformers caused by grid harmonics; new methods for loss determination in HVAC cables; and new partial discharge monitoring techniques for fault detection and localization in HVDC cables.
