IEEE 1588 synchronization in distributed measurement systems for electric power networks

TL;DRAbstract

Modern electric power systems can be considered as the consequence of the continuous technological evolution, often pushed by economical, political and social requirements. As an example, the main transformations in electric distribution systems arise from the diffusion of
\n“Distributed Generation” (DG), i.e. small production plants, often supplied through renewable energy sources, whose presence has significant implications on both energy management (since “active networks” are needed to take into account bidirectional energy flows by means of innovative devices) and protection systems (since adaptive protections can be used to automatically reconfigure the network in the case of fault occurrence). In general, in both transmission and distribution networks, monitoring, control and protection tasks are usually performed by Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs), which can be, by their nature,
\nconnected to each other by suitable communication links. A famous example of this ap
