PJM recently tested its ability to temporarily reduce voltage in order to practice and validate an emergency procedure used to ease system conditions under extreme circumstances. Kevin Hatch, PJM Sr. Manager – Dispatch, said PJM conducted the test of its Voltage Reduction Action on Aug. 14 and Aug. 15. The procedure involves PJM ordering voltage reductions on the distribution system in order to reduce the strain on the transmission system during times of heavy electricity usage, which reduces the distribution voltage and the amount of power being used. The effects are not noticeable to most people and equipment. PJM has not implemented a Voltage Reduction Action in response to real-time conditions since the Polar Vortex of January 2014. The purpose of the August test was to verify the level at which this procedure can reduce system load while also exercising transmission owners’ ability to implement it.
