Q1 : What is the mission of your department?
A1 : Perform EMT studies for installation of new equipment, analysis of events on the transmission grid and preparation of maintenance activities.

 

Q2 : What was the EMTP^® impact on your work?
A2 : It has a major impact on our work, 6 study engineers are working full time with EMTP^®, in addition to various other R&D projects related to EMTP^®.

 

Q3 : Can you describe a specific project in which EMTP^® had a key contribution on study time and accuracy of results?
A3 : EMTP^® studies helped us to evaluate solutions for limiting transient switching overvoltages for long shunt compensated EHV cables. Simulations results have been successfully compared to site measurements.

Extensive EMTP^® simulations were used to adjust controller settings and limit inrush currents. Simulations have been validated against field measurements. Parametric simulations have been performed with EMTP^® to analyze thousands of cases.

 

EMTP^® Studies performed to insert Long AC Cables in the French Grid
