Considerations in Developing and Utilizing Operator Training Simulators

Abstract
Effective electric system operation depends on strengthening the relationship between the system operator and the electrical system with its associated control system. This relationship can be developed through a training medium which increases the operator's knowledge of the behaviot of the power system under various operating conditions and contingencies, and its response to control actions. An Operator Training Simulator (OTS), which simulates the static and dynamic responses of the operator's power system and his control system, can accomplish these training objectives. The concepts developed in this paper are based on the work of the project team through funding by the Electric Power Research Institute.
