Joint ASU & IEEE PES Phoenix Chapter Distinguished Speaker + Luncheon
Date: Thursday, March 17th, 2016
More information regarding the PES Phoenix Chapter can be found at: http://ewh.ieee.org/soc/pes/phoenix/
Sponsored by:
Time: 10am-11am: Registration 11am: Seminar 12pm: Lunch and Awards
Location: Arizona State University, Tempe Campus (see attached maps) Memorial Union, Ventana Ballroom 241 (2nd Floor) (see attached maps)
Speaker: Dr. Arun Phadke
Topic: Evolution of PMUs and WAMS
Abstract: The talk will explain the history of Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) development from 1970s to date. The work on computer relaying was the starting point. The reason for the invention of Symmetrical Component Distance Relay will be explained. The jump from a relay to PMU was a perfect transition, and has led to much of the current research on PMUs, Wide Area Measurement Systems (WAMS), and their applications in monitoring, control and protection of power systems. A brief summary of current IEEE standards and testing of PMUs will be presented. The talk will conclude with some thoughts on where this technology is heading.
Cost: Lunch is FREE! Attendees will have to cover the cost of parking at ASU (see attached parking map).
Reservations: REQUIRED! Must Register by Thursday, March 10th Register Online at: http://sites.ieee.org/phoenix-pes/2016/02/12/joint-asu-ieee-pes-phoenix-chapter-distinguished-speakerluncheon/
ARUN PHADKE
Dr. Arun Phadke is presently a University Distinguished Professor (Emeritus) in the
Department of Electrical Engineering at Virginia Tech. He worked in the Electric
Utility industry for 13 years before joining Virginia Tech as a Tenured Full
Professor in 1982. He became the American Electric Power Professor of Electrical
Engineering in 1985 and held this title until 2000 when he was recognized as a
University Distinguished Professor. In his work with industry as well as at Virginia
Tech, Dr. Phadke has conducted research in the field of Power System Engineering,
taught short courses for engineers in Industry held throughout the world, and has
actively participated in national and international Technical Societies. During his
sabbatical leaves at ABB in Sweden (1989) and at the Unviersity of Grenoble in
France (1997) he developed strong relations with the engineering establishments in those countries. A
number of funded research projects have been initiated as a result of the contacts established during these
periods.
Dr. Phadke received his B.Tech in Electrical Engineering in 1959 and Ph.D from the University of
Wisconsin, Madison, USA in 1964. He was elected a Fellow of IEEE in 1980. He was also elected to
the National Academy of Engineering in 1993. In IEEE he was the Editor-In-Chief of Transactions of
IEEE on Power Delivery. Later he became the Chairman of the Power System Relaying Committee of
IEEE in 1999-2000. In the National Academy of Engineering, he has been a member of the Peer
Committee in Power, a committee which oversees the election of new members to the Academy in that
field. He was the Chairman of this Peer Committee in 1998.
Dr. Phadke has been very active in CIGRE, an international organization based in Paris which deals with
the issues of Power Engineering on a world-wide basis. He has been a member of the Executive
Committee of the US National Committee of CIGRE, and was the Chairman of their Technical
Committee. He has been the Director of the Center for Power Engineering at Virginia Tech, and also the
Director of its Energy Research Group until his retirement. In 1999 Dr. Phadke joined colleagues from
Europe and Far East in founding the International Institute for Critical Infrastructures (CRIS). He was
the first President of CRIS from 1999-2002, and currently serves on its Governing Board.
Dr. Phadke received the “Doctor Honoris Causa” from Institute National Polytechnic de Grenoble
(INPG) in 2006. Recently along with James Thorp, head of the Bradley Department of Electrical
Engineering at Virginia Tech, Phadke received The Franklin Institute's 2008 Benjamin Franklin Medal
in Electrical Engineering for their contributions to the power industry, particularly microprocessor
controllers in electric power systems that have significantly decreased the occurrence and duration of
power blackouts. He has been honored by Eta Kappa Nu with the 2007 Vladimir Karapetoff Award for
career accomplishment. Phadke and his colleague, Stanley H. Horowitz received the award for their
technical contributions to the field of power system protection and control.

Visitor Parking
Light Rail Station
ASU Visitor Parking Map, Memorial Union, and additional information: Suggested parking locations: The Apache BLVD parking structure; Rural Road parking structure; Tyler St. parking structure; Lot 19; Lot
17; Lot 20. For those of you taking the light rail, you will want to exit going west from the station until you reach McAllister Ave (a two-
lane road on campus). Go south (left) until you reach the Orange Mall (another 2-lane road). There is a stop light at the intersection of these
two streets. The Orange Mall will take you to the front of the Memorial Union. You will be able to detect the Memorial Union (MU) as
there will be tables out front (and inside) as it is a food court. You will want to go up to the second floor and look for our registration table,
which will be at the entrance of the Ventana Ballroom. A map of the campus and the 2nd floor are provided in this flyer.
