Abstract
This paper deals with the accuracy evaluation of a method for gathering synchronized phasor measurements of electrical quantities in nodes of power networks. Usually, this task is performed using commercially available instrumentation, for instance, the phasor measurement unit. They rely on a common time reference signal provided usually by the GPS system. After a brief recall of two methods already presented by authors in previous papers, which do not require a common time reference for providing synchronized phasors of voltages at the network nodes, the major sources of uncertainty in the measurement chain (lengths of the branches of the network; per-unit length reactance of the cables; and effect of the instrument transformers) are considered and investigation on their contribution, in one of the two methods, to the overall uncertainty performed.
