Thompson adds that while PSTs are becoming a more common tool to optimize transmission assets, until now the controls have
often been operated manually. SEL has
been able to automate the control technology
to enable the system operator to simply
input a megawatt set point, allowing the tapchanger control to automatically regulate
according to the operators requirements,
he says.
