Wide Area Management System and Control
Flexible programmable controller platform to meet complex system challenges
GE’s PhasorController, is a hardware and software platform designed to meet an increasing demand for a flexible programmable controller platform with a guaranteed response time suitable for wide area monitoring, protection, and control (WAMPAC) applications, capable of evolving throughout its deployed lifetime to meet ever more complex challenges.
The PhasorController platform provides a modular PLC environment capable of supporting a diverse range of inputs, including synchrophasors, as well as supporting a range of industry standard protocols. The platform offers a guaranteed response time, is capable of evolving over time, and can be further extended and optimized to manage emerging power system issues.
GE continues to work closely with Icelandic system operator, Landsnet, to further expand the use of WAMS and WACS. Several smart grid projects have been deployed in operational service using GE's PhasorController.
Produce complex logic based on a wide range of data sources, including, IEEE C37.118, IEC 61850 MMS & GOOSE, IEC 60870-5-104 and MODBUS
IEC 61131-3 PLC engine supporting FBD, LD, ST, and IL design
Due to hard real-time, fully deterministic platform with an execution cycle from 4ms to 20ms
Built-in utilization and propagation of signal metadata, allowing for dynamic adjustment of controller performance based on data quality and availability
