Impact of changing frequency standards on a domestic electricity consumer
The UK electricity operates at 50Hz +/-1%. To keep the frequency within these limits it is necessary to purchase frequency response services. These services need to be adequate to deal with a power loss of 1GW. Additional pressures in keeping the frequency stable come from reducing grid inertia requ...

description | The UK electricity operates at 50Hz +/-1%. To keep the frequency within these limits it is necessary to purchase frequency response services. These services need to be adequate to deal with a power loss of 1GW. Additional pressures in keeping the frequency stable come from reducing grid inertia requiring faster acting response. This paper considers an alternative approach around changing the standards on frequency. Modern technology is no longer so reliant on the 50Hz electricity grid for timing and most modern machines use power electronic converters for control. This paper, therefore, investigates changing the frequency limits and the nominal frequency with different voltage levels and determines the impact of this on domestic loads. |
