Abstract :
This paper describes the development of a phasor measurement unit using data wireless transmission via GPRS. The detailed process in the design and construction of the prototype and the difficulties faced at different stages are presented. The results are finally evaluated using the Total Vector Error (TVE) calculated for each of the testing designs.
