Hardware-in-the-Loop Testing of Large-Scale Power Systems

Watch this webinar and learn how to build a simulator for testing large-scale power systems.

We show you how to emulate complete electric power grids using real-time test systems and test controllers, protection systems, and electrical equipment.

You’ll learn how to evaluate your equipment under different grid operation and fault scenarios using a digital twin of the actual power grid.

The hands-on demos live demos in the webinar will cover:

• EMT* simulations of transmission and distribution systems: Setup and run *electromagnetic transient simulation of large power systems using multicore CPUs, FPGAs, and distributed simulation.
• Testing protection and SCADA* systems: Test *supervisory control and data acquisition system in real-world scenarios using industry-standard communication protocols like DNP3 and IEC61850
• State of the art transmission systems: The use cases feature high voltage DC (HVDC) and flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS)
