The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) sponsored a project that identified the display needs of power system control centers, evaluated currently available display systems, prepared a prototyped a display set, and wrote a handbook on the effective design of such systems. Project results are described, examples of currently used displays presented and analyzed. Improved and entirely new power system control center displays are presented along with the rationale for their design.
