SEL-5703 Synchrowave Monitoring
Real-Time and Historic Trending and Archiving
Improve understanding of system events and expedite root cause analysis with high-resolution time-series data. Synchrowave Monitoring brings synchrophasor data and relay event reports together into one place so engineers can analyze both the high-level system impact of an event and the detailed oscillography data.

Trending and Archiving Application Package for 25 Streaming Devices: $12,645 USD
Disturbance Monitoring—Analyze archived synchrophasor data and relay event reports together in one display for a complete disturbance monitoring solution. Easily find system disturbances, and export data to CSV and COMTRADE data formats for NERC PRC-002-2 compliance.
Real-Time System Visibility—Improve system visibility by viewing live, subsecond, and time-aligned information from across the entire power system. Gain additional insight into the dynamic behavior of the power system through waveform signatures to aid in analysis during abnormal conditions.
Renewable Energy Monitoring—Understand how the increasing amount of renewable energy being added to your grid impacts system stability. System dynamics from these generation sources change quickly—too fast to see at traditional SCADA rates. Use high-resolution displays in Synchrowave Monitoring for detection and tracking of the impact of renewables on your system.
Power System Model Validation—Record the system response of generator trips, load shedding, remedial action scheme (RAS) operations, or other events. Analyze the archived system responses, and compare them to power system models. Simply export system response data from Synchrowave Monitoring to external power system simulation/modeling applications.

Synchrowave Monitoring—Trending and Archiving Application Package
The Trending and Archiving package includes the following applications:
- Timeline—Provides users the ability to view real-time and historical data within Synchrowave Monitoring.
- Dashboards—Provides real-time visualization of power system data and information through a collection of panels.
- Panels—Includes basic streaming data visualization and analysis panels:
- Time-Series Trend
- Numeric Meter
- Phasor Scope
- Device Events Panel—Provides a summary of relay event reports that are stored in the acSELerator Database.
- synchroWAVe Event Express—Provides web client visualization of relay event reports archived in the acSELerator Database.
- acSELerator Database Reader—Connects Synchrowave Monitoring to the event reports stored in the acSELerator Database. acSELerator Team SEL-5045 Software can be used to automate the collection of relay event reports from relays.
- IEEE C37.118 Reader—Reads from IEEE C37.118 synchrophasor streams and publishes signals to the platform for visualization and archiving.
- Historian—Archives synchrophasor data. Includes archive retention period.
- Data Indexer—Creates indexes of historian data to provide fast data access performance.
- Data Export—Downloads selected data directly from the web client display in CSV and COMTRADE format.
- Web Gateway—Provides HTTPS configuration and authentication via Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)-based Microsoft Active Directory.
Synchrowave Platform
Synchrowave Monitoring includes a Microsoft Windows-based version of the Synchrowave Platform.
- The platform supports installation for one server.
- Synchrowave Platform applications run as Windows Services. Applications are packaged together into the Windows Installer. Individual application updates are not supported for Synchrowave Monitoring.
Installation Requirements
- Windows OS (Windows 10 Enterprise, Windows Server 2016, or Windows Server 2019)
- Local storage (preferred) or high-performance network drive. Storage requirements depend on number of phasor measurement units (PMUs), number of signals per PMU, and data rate. (125 GB per PMU per year at 60 messages per second is often used for approximate storage estimates.)
