    摘要: A testing apparatus for imposing a traveling wave signal on an electric system signal for testing a fault detector is disclosed herein. The fault detector may be configured to simulate a fault at a particular location by controlling the timing of the traveling wave signal. The testing apparatus may be configured to impose multiple traveling wave signals to test the accuracy of the fault location determined by the fault detector. The testing apparatus may be configured to determine the calculation accuracy of the fault detector. The testing apparatus may impose a traveling wave signal on a signal simulating an electrical signal on an electric power delivery system. The testing apparatus may be used to test capabilities of a fault detector of detecting a fault using traveling waves or incremental quantities.

    摘要: Systems and methods for facilitating selected communications among primary protection relays using a supervisory system with a configurable input/output (IO) map. Primary protection relays may obtain signals from equipment associated with an electric power delivery system and provide primary protection without need for communication. The primary protection relays may communicate a unique identifier as well as signal values, states, and commands to the supervisory system. The supervisory system may route specifically identified communications among primary protection relays in accordance with a configurable IO map by transmitting selected portions of the communications on a port associated with the receiving primary protection relay. The primary protection relays may perform secondary protection and other operations using the communicated information.

    摘要: This disclosure relates to detecting manipulation or spoofing of a time based on a latency of a communication system. In one embodiment, a system includes a time input to receive a time signal. The system includes a first interface to receive a first representation of a first condition at a first location at a first time and a second interface to receive a second representation of a second condition at a second location and at the first time. A latency determination subsystem may determine a latency based on a comparison of the time of arrival of the second measurement and the first time. A threshold subsystem may generate an indication of whether the latency satisfies a threshold. An anomalous condition subsystem may identify an anomalous condition based on the indication, and a remedial action may be implemented based on the anomalous condition.
