Open publisher page 45 citations

Abstract

The Smart Grid is not just advanced metering. Electric distribution feeders that are equipped with Advanced Distribution Automation (ADA) can make a significant contribution to accomplishing the overall Smart Grid characteristics as defined by the Modern Grid Initiative. In particular, ADA will enable the distribution feeders to be self-healing and more efficient, and will also facilitate the implementation of distributed energy resources. This paper described the major ADA applications and provides a smart grid “scorecard” that shows the relationship between each function and the smart grid characteristics.
