abstract
1979-ACM. Some design concepts for microprocessor applications to the control and protection of electric power systems are presented. A formal design methodology is outlined. Present microprocessor applications to the control and protection of the electric power generation, transmission and distribution systems are summarized. These applications are generalized to provide a basis for identifying a set of "standardized application modules." A projection is made of probable future developments in microprocessor applications to the electric power industry. A probable development is believed to be the use of hierarchically structured networks of microprocessors to provide, through distributed processing, more cost-effective and reliable control and protection than is possible through centralized processing.
