  • Abstract
    Since the installation of its first digitally controlled economic dispatch system in 1959, the Philadelphia Electric Company has been studying in increasing detail the dynamic characteristics of its generating units, for these characteristics affect the performance of the overall system. In planning for a new digital control and data transmission complex, a study was included in the overall project aimed at restructuring the controls of existing units in order to improve their characteristics. A first step in this study was the development and purchase of a new high speed digital data acquisition system for use in the testing and analysis of power plant equipment.
