Simple Ac Systems (Casee-2015)

This document provides an overview of topics covered in a PSCAD training on simple AC systems. The training will cover: identifying AC system types; adding controls and meters; using fly-by windows, multimeters, and online frequency scanners; adding polymeters and sequences of events; creating page modules; and using data merge and radio links. Specific examples are given on setting up single and three-phase AC circuits, controlling voltages, initiating faults, and monitoring harmonic currents during faults. Assignments are provided to have trainees implement circuits with breakers, faults, and monitoring tools.

PSCAD TRAINING

SIMPLE AC SYSTEMS
We will learn:
• Identifying various AC systems and using them in various
cases.
• How to add controls and meters.
• Fly-by windows.
• Multimeter.
• Online frequency scanner.
• Adding polymeters.
• Adding a sequence of events.
• Creating a page module.
• Data merge.
• Radio links.
• The various types of AC systems can be
classified as:
1. Single-phase AC systems
2. Three-phase AC systems, etc

• These can be easily available at master library


sources.

SINGLE-PHASE AC SYSTEMS THREE-PHASE AC SYSTEMS


Adding Controls and Meters
• In-order to make any source externally controllable,
we may use a slider or a meter.
• These can be easily added by following these steps:
Graphs/Meters/Controls Add as Control.
• Add a Control Panel from the Component window
and select Paste option, to add the slider or meter as a
control.
• Generally a slider or meter provides a Three-phase
source RMS voltage as output.
Fly-by Window
• To check what output a particular component can provide us
without checking its properties can be achieved by simply
placing the pointer over the particular component and leave the
mouse stationary.
• A window appears with all the details, which is called a fly-by
window.
• Thus all the preliminary information can be obtained regarding a
component by a fly-by window.
Multimeter

• This component is available on the master library Meters


section or can be found on the Component Panel.
• The metering components take electrical signals as input and
convert them into data signals.
• The multimeter should be connected in series as we do for an
ammeter.
• It is more convenient as compared to other meters, as all are
combined in one.
ASSIGNMENT-I
• Construct the given figure. Control the voltage in a
range of 0 to 20 and set its initial value by 14.4.
• Construct a 3-phase breaker circuit with a timed
controlled logic block to control the breaker at a
specific time.(1 for operation, initially closed and will
open at 0.4sec)
• Initiate a fault in the circuit by a timed fault logic
block . Initiate fault at 0.1 sec and duration of 0.2 sec.
• Add a dial to the system to find the responses at
various fault conditions.
On-line Frequency Scanner
• This block is used when we want to monitor the harmonic
currents flowing through the breaker during each fault.
• This scanner is basically an array of harmonic currents which
can be given as inputs through a Polymeter.
• To add Polymeter: Graphs/Meters… Add as polymeter on
the output channel of the desired harmonic current.

ON-LINE FREQUENCY SCANNER


ASSIGNMENT-II
• Add the polymeter and on-line frequency meter to the existing
case.
• Obtain the responses for all the various faults.

TIME PLOTS OF HARMONICS


•Add a three-phase RMS voltmeter (Meter page Master library)
between the breaker and fault branch.
•Add this as a meter on the control panel with range 0 to 2.
Adding Sequences
• It is useful when performing an event driven process
instead of time driven processes.
• It can be obtained from the master library and performs
the same task as timed breaker logic and timed fault logic.

EXAMPLE OF SEQUENCES
Creating Page Modules
• These are used in-order to create new component in an
existing component.
• Steps:
Right click Create Component
Component wizard Add ports Name the ports
Finish Drag once the icon on main page.
• The new component design can be viewed in the
Graphics view in page module.
• Inorder to interface the graphics with the circuit components,
Xnodes are used.
• They should have the same name as the graphic view has.
• An Import is needed to bring the data signal from the page
module to the main page.

PAGE MODULE VIEW


Radio Links
• These are used when we want to transfer some data signals from the
page module to the main page.
• A transmitter is connected in the page module and it is received in
the main page through a component called Radio Link.
• It signifies a wireless connection between the modules and they
should carry the same names.
• Here we want to check the resulting fault current in the 3-phase
breaker so a data merge icon is used.
• After using the radio link the graphical view should be as follows
for the considered case.
ASSIGNMENT-III
• Consider the previous case, implement sequences, page
module concept, data merge and radio link to get the responses
of the fault currents.
