Within the context of time dissemination techniques for power systems applications, the paper discusses the use of the White Rabbit (WR) protocol for synchrophasor networks. Specifically, the paper presents a Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) integrating the WR technology and its experimental validation with a focus on the synchrophasor phase estimation in steady state conditions, by using a PMU calibrator generating the reference signals. We further compare the accuracy of the developed PMU with other state-of-the-art time synchronization technologies for PMUs. i.e., Global Positioning System (GPS) and Precision Time Protocol (PTP), demonstrating applicability of WR for PMU sensing networks.
