Cross-platform consistency

Model Benchmarking & Validation

Structured PSS®E-to-PSCAD, PSLF-to-PSCAD, and related cross-platform comparison support.

The engineering context

Start with the project problem.

Benchmarking is used to explain whether RMS and EMT models represent the same plant behavior at a defined operating point—not simply to place two traces on the same chart.

Typical issues

  • RMS and EMT responses diverge and the cause is unclear.
  • Test setup, event timing, scaling, or measurement points differ between platforms.
  • Overlay results exist without an auditable explanation of assumptions and tolerances.

Scope

Where Amperion can support the team.

  • PSS®E ↔ PSCAD benchmarking
  • PSLF ↔ PSCAD benchmarking
  • TSAT-related comparison support where applicable
  • Operating-point and disturbance alignment
  • Controller and parameter reconciliation

Work product

Clear, reviewable engineering deliverables.

The final package is tailored to the project stage, utility request, and agreed scope.

  • Benchmark test matrix
  • Aligned response overlays
  • Difference and disposition log
  • Reproducible run documentation
