The Athens Automation and Control Experiment is a research and development project for a distribution automation system. The purpose of the experiment is to improve the efficiency and controllability of the power system by automating the distribution system, developing test control strategies, and testing those strategies. The automation hardware described in this paper has been installed on the Athens Utilities Board distribution system in Athens, Tennessee. Experiments designed to develop and test load control, volt/var control, and system reconfiguration functions are under way. A primary objective of the distribution automation experiments is the transfer of the experimental results to the electric utility industry. The project is sponsored by the Office of Energy Storage and Distribution, Electric Energy Systems Program, US Department of Energy, and by the Electric Power Research Institute.
