Final Guideline publishedDecember 2022
Overview
Through working with Network Service Providers (NSPs) and market participants, AEMO has found that there is uncertainty on the requirements of clause S5.2.5.10 “Protection to trip for unstable operation” of the National Electricity Rules (NER) and relating the requirements to the Power System Stability Guidelines (PSSG). As such, AEMO has identified an opportunity to establish a consistent understanding and approach for the technical requirements under, and compliance with, S5.2.5.10 for asynchronous generating systems and reactive plant such as Static Var Compensators (SVCs) and Static Synchronous Compensators (STATCOMs).
AEMO has prepared an initial summary guide to give a broad range of stakeholders a summary perspective on some of the challenges to date, an overview of a proposed S5.2.5.10 guideline, and an opportunity to provide input to the development of the said guideline.
