Recently, the number of electric-power facilities, including high-voltage direct current (HVDC) and flexible AC current transmission system (FACTS), has rapidly increased, owing to restrictions regarding the expansion of existing AC networks. Traditionally, a final site acceptance test (SAT) is conducted following controller performance verification in a factory acceptance test (FAT), based on an equivalent small network or voltage sources. Furthermore, several standards and guidelines related to the FAT and SAT of HVDC and FACTS have been published. Meanwhile, as the number of power electronic devices and the complexity of power systems increase, controller performance tests reflecting the wide area dynamic characteristics and control operation of adjacent devices should be required. However, a wide-area dynamic performance test (DPT) requires a large-scale real-time simulator and high-level operational technology. Owing to these difficulties, the definition, standard, procedure, and test protocol of hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS)-DPT, based on a large-scale power system, have not yet been established systematically, and only a few applications have been reported. This study aims to establish and propose procedures, a test protocol, and a methodology of HILS-DPT and large-scale power system modeling for testing. To this end, a case study was conducted to demonstrate the necessity of the DPT procedures and methodologies for the static VAR compensator controller installed at the Shin-Jecheon substation, an ongoing project undertaken the by Korea Electric Power Corporation, as of 2019.

近来，由于对现有AC网络的扩展的限制，包括高压直流（HVDC）和柔性AC电流传输系统（FACTS）的电力设施的数量迅速增加。传统上，根据等效的小型网络或电压源，在工厂验收测试（FAT）中的控制器性能验证之后，进行最终现场验收测试（SAT）。此外，已经发布了与HVDC和FACTS的FAT和SAT相关的几种标准和指南。同时，随着电力电子设备数量的增加和电力系统的复杂性的增加，需要进行反映广域动态特性和相邻设备控制操作的控制器性能测试。然而，广域动态性能测试（DPT）需要大规模的实时模拟器和高级操作技术。由于这些困难，还没有系统地建立基于大规模电力系统的硬件在环仿真（HILS）-DPT的定义，标准，程序和测试协议。已经报道了应用。本研究旨在建立和提出HILS-DPT的程序，测试协议，方法论以及用于测试的大规模电力系统建模。为此，进行了案例研究，以证明安装在Shin-Jecheon变电站上的静态VAR补偿控制器的DPT程序和方法的必要性，这是韩国电力公司于2019年进行的一项正在进行的项目。
