Large disturbances definition
Large disturbances. Large disturbances are characterized by voltage falling outside of the continuous operating range. The Facility shall adhere to the following characteristics for large disturbances: The response of each generating resource over its full operating range and for all expected grid conditions should be stable. The dynamic performance of each resource should be tuned to provide this stable response. Company will work with Seller to ensure during the interconnection process that each resource supports Company System reliability and provides a stable transient response to grid events. [Note - The performance specifications described here may need to be modified based on studies performed for specific interconnections to provide a stable response.] Inverter-based resources shall operate in closed loop automatic voltage control at all times to support voltage regulation and voltage stability. Either the individual inverters or the plant-level closed loop automatic voltage controller must operate with a relatively fast response characteristic to mitigate steady-state voltage issues from causing dynamic voltage collapse. The plant-level controller may send voltage or reactive power set point changes to the individual inverters relatively fast, or the inverters will respond locally (depending on control architecture). For a large disturbance step in voltage, measured at the inverter terminals, where voltage falls outside the continuous operating range, the positive sequence component of the inverter reactive current response must meet the performance specifications set forth below. These parameters may be adjusted following additional study and/or operational testing and performance. Reaction time: Time between the step change in voltage and when the resource reactive power output begins responding to the change. The reaction time shall be less than 16 msec. Rise time: Time between a step change in control signal input and when the reactive power output changes by 90 percent of its final value. The rise time shall be less than 100 msec. Overshoot: Percentage of rated reactive current output that the resource can exceed when reaching the settling band. Overshoot will be determined following the IRS such that any overshoot in reactive power response does not cause Company System voltages to exceed acceptable voltage limits. The magnitude of the dynamic response may be requested to be reduced based on stability studies or actual operational data review. If the Facility d...
