Systems may include a first data acquisition subsystem, a second data acquisition subsystem, and a traveling wave analysis subsystem. The traveling wave analysis subsystem may be configured to analyze measured traveling wave data from the first data acquisition subsystem and the second data acquisition subsystem. Additionally, methods of analyzing traveling wave data resulting from a fault on an electric power delivery system may involve analyzing measured electrical properties of at least one traveling wave.

Systems, methods, and devices are provided for dynamically generating a histogram for viewing via a user interface. Embodiments presented herein provide apparatus and techniques for generating a histogram and adjusting a view of the histogram without the computations being perceived by a user. To do so, histogram indices may be computed for various time intervals (e.g., minutes, hours, days, etc.) of input data. The indices may be used to generate a histogram for a time interval that may be larger than the interval used to compute the histogram indices. At the time period for the histogram displayed via the user interface is changed by the user, a dynamic histogram builder computes an adjusted histogram using histogram indices for the updated and/or changed time period. Embodiments herein provide techniques which reduce the time to compute the histogram and consume less computing resources to do so.

Dynamic histogram builder

A system includes a processor operatively coupled to memory. The processor performs operations that include obtaining electrical measurements of a power system. The processor determines a scaled energy value of a first set of the electrical measurements that are scaled with respect to a second set of electrical measurements. The processor determines that a potential ringdown event occurred by comparing the scaled energy value to a threshold energy value. The processor determines that the potential ringdown event is a confirmed ringdown event by comparing a scaled error value to a threshold error value. The processor generates one or more mode estimates from the confirmed ringdown event.

Combining and analyzing streamed and polled electric power delivery system information is disclosed herein. A system therefore includes a plurality of IEDs in communication with the electric power distribution system and configured to provide streaming and/or polled data via a communications network. An analysis engine in communication with the communications network receives selected streaming information and requested polled information, analyzes such streamed and polled information, and provides a display of such streaming and polled information to a user.
