Testbed for Advanced Distribution Management Systems: Assessment of Cybersecurity
Challenge and objective
Establish a cyber-physical ADMS testbed to address research questions on benefits and cyber security vulnerabilities of advanced distribution network operation functions.
Work performed
Initial implementation of cyber-physical testbed for Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS).
Significant results
The testbed is used for cybersecurity assessment of smart power distribution network operation use case of TSO-DSO coordinated reactive power management. The functioning of the first implementation of the c testbed is validated.
