Introduction: This program addresses issues relating the increased complexity of the transmission system, modern developments in protection and control systems and the impact of these developments on existing and future systems installed on the transmission system.

Objectives: Smart Grid Oscillation Management attempts to improve existing power oscillation detection and give additional oscillation source location information to enable the transmission network to be operated and designed securely at high utilisation.
