The test suite specification (TSS) provides organizations that are testing phasor measurement unit (PMU) performance with a suite of unambiguous test plans. For Corporate or Institutional Access, request a custom quote for your organization at www.ieee.org/go/synchrophasor-subscriptions.

The scope of this test suite specification is limited to the testing of phasor measurement unit electrical performance. As of this revision of the test suite specification, the standard for phasor measurement unit performance is IEEE Std C37.118.1(TM)-2011, IEEE Standard for Synchrophasor Measurements for Power Systems as modified by IEEE C37.118.1a(TM)-2014.

This test suite specification (TSS) provides organizations that are testing phasor measurement unit (PMU) performance with a suite of unambiguous test plans in accordance with the Smart Grid Interoperability Panel (SGIP) Interoperability Process Reference Manual (IPRM). This TSS further provides requirements for equipment used for the testing of PMUs, requirements for the measurements made by PMU test equipment, and requirements for the reporting of PMU measurements. Test plans and requirements in this TSS are more specific than requirements of the standard for PMU performance. The standard specifies the test signals to be input to a PMU under test and the p...
