Introduction: Phasor Monitoring Units (PMUs) are being more widely installed across the UK electricity network; as protection and control technology develops. The PMUs can detail the shape of the AC electrical wave at the monitoring point; which can be used to provide several key electrical system parameters and significantly aids knowledge of how the network operates under both normal and abnormal conditions.

Objectives: There are two key objects with this project;

·       Explore if electrical system phasor measurements can be used as a means of HVDC control; and if successful;
Exploring if there are benefits to phasor measurement HVDC Control systems against present methods.
