4. Synchrophasor measurement 4.3 Measurement time synchronization Change first paragraph in 4.3 as shown below: The PMU shall be capable of receiving time from a reliable and accurate source, such as the Global Positioning System (GPS), that can provide time traceable to UTC with sufficient accuracy to keep the total vector error (TVE), the frequency error (FE), and the rate of change of frequency (ROCOF) error (RFE) within the required limits. All measurements shall be synchronized to UTC time with accuracy sufficient to meet the requirements of this standard. Note that a time error of 1 µs corresponds to a synchrophasor phase error of 0.022 degrees for a 60 Hz system and 0.018 degrees for a 50 Hz system. A phase error of 0.57 degrees (0.01 radian) will by itself cause 1% TVE as defined in Equation 12. This corresponds to a time error of ±26 µs for a 60 Hz system and ±31 µs for a 50 Hz system. A time source FE of 0.083 MHz in a 60 Hz system or 0.1 MHz in a 50 Hz system will cause the maximum allowed steady-state FE of 0.005 Hz. Similarly, a time source with a varying frequency will cause a corresponding error in ROCOF (the relationship is not as direct as those above). A time source that reliably provides time, frequency, and frequency stability at least 10 times better than these values corresponding to 1% TVE is highly recommended. The time source shall also provide an indication of traceability to UTC and leap second changes.
5. Synchrophasor measurement requirements and compliance verification
5.5 Measurement compliance
5.5.5 Steady-state compliance Change Table 4 as shown below:
dd the following paragraph immediately after Table 4: The limits for RFE for class M have been suspended for the Harmonics and Out-of-Band tests. The interactions between the phasor, frequency and ROCOF computations are not well enough developed at the time of this standard’s publication to assure that fixed limits for ROCOF in these tests will not constrain phasor or frequency measurement. This standard focuses on phasor and frequency measurement to best serve the user community. However, for sinusoidal interfering signals such as these, the limit on FE also implies a limit on RFE.
