Abstract
A method for detection of a sub-synchronous oscillation in a power system includes measuring a three-phase measurement signal of an electric system value, analyzing the measurement signal to detect an oscillation component of the measurement signal having an oscillation frequency lower than a system frequency of the power system, deciding whether the detected oscillation component at the oscillation frequency qualifies as a sub-synchronous oscillation, and disconnecting a generator from the power system that might be affected by the sub-synchronous oscillation. To detect sub-synchronous oscillations with low computational effort and good accuracy, an amplitude of each phase of the oscillation component is calculated and compared against a threshold, a sub-synchronous oscillation is detected upon exceeding the threshold during a given time delay, and a fault signal is generated upon detecting a sub-synchronous oscillation. A device having a processing unit is also provided.
