NOTICE - This session will be paid for by the North Jersey Section PES as a courtesy to our members and prospective members during these challenging times of COVID-19. There will be no charge for participation and Continuing Education Unit credits.This session is being offered as a GoToMeeting (details below).The seminar will cover:Distribution Voltage Regulation Series: Methods to Regulate the Voltage on the Distribution GridIntroduction: This is a 10 - session presentation meant to assist engineers in designing the proper voltage regulationarchitecture for the distribution grid. Each session takes approximately 45-50 minutes with a 10-15minute period at the end for questions. The presentations should prove beneficial to technicians andengineers responsible for distribution standards and design, distribution planning engineers, powerquality engineers as well as SCADA/ communications engineers. Below is a brief description of eachsession.Part 5) How FLISR Impacts Voltage RegulationThis session discovers how switching or FLISR schemes impact voltage regulation. When placing part ofone feeder onto a new feeder it can cause reverse power flow with regulators and also change the faultpower seen by capacitor banks which will cause a change in the Delta Voltage for the capacitor bank. Itcan also cause a loss of coordination with time delays between regulators and capacitor banks.Part 6) How DG Impacts Voltage RegulationThis session discusses how the introduction of solar and/or wind generation onto a distribution circuitcan impact the voltage regulation. Regulators can be in reverse power mode as well as capacitor banksand may not operate correctly. Depending on how the inverters are configured (unity pF, fixed pF orVolt/Var) the inverters may also impact the amount of reactive capacitive current required on the circuitand may impact the placement of switched capacitor banks. Finally the session looks at distributionSTATCOMs that may be required to mitigate voltage variations due to the volatile nature of the outputof DG.Speaker(s): Bob McFetridge, Agenda: Two hours of instruction will be provided.This session is being offered as a GoToMeeting:https://global.gotomeeting.com/join/761257597You must register through VTools in advance in order to receive your CEU Certificate.
