Abstract

In this paper, the level of instrumentation for power system disturbance monitoring, data acquisition and control in Nigerian Electric Power System; National Electric Power Authority (NEPA) is presented. The need for accurate power system disturbance monitoring is highlighted. A feature of an adequate monitoring, data acquisition and control system is discussed. The state of the art in NEPA is focused and the attendant inadequacies highlighted. Finally, ways of improving NEPA monitoring, data acquisition and control are suggested.
