Experimental Validation of a Steady State Model Synthesis Method for a Three-Phase Unbalanced Active Distribution Network Feeder

• This paper presents the field validation of a method that performs steady-state model synthesis (SSMS) of active distribution networks using syncrophasor measurements. The validation is performed by applying the SSMS method on a real active distribution feeder network by utilizing the measurements from real phasor measurement units (PMUs) installed at the EPFL campus. An extended version of total vector error and a power flow comparison at the PMU buses are used as performance assessment metrics. A real-time hardware-in-the-loop simulations set up at the Distributed Energy System Laboratory is used for further performance assessment of the SSMS application. The effectiveness of the SSMS application is demonstrated by testing it extensively for several different case studies.
