Aiming at the problem that the current measurements provided by phasor measurement unit (PMU) is difficult to introduce to traditional state estimation, a new method to solve the compatibility problems of PMU and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) is presented in this paper. By the rotated-pseudo-measurement (RPM) method, current measurements are transformed into the pseudo measurements and decoupled in polar coordinates, so that they could taken into nonlinear state estimation. Then the RPM method is simulated compared with the current transformation (CT) method. According to the result, it is showed that the RPM method has many advantages compared with the CT, such as independence of other measurements, small error in propagation and more significant in improving estimation accuracy. Moreover, the RPM method has the compatibility with traditional nonlinear state estimation and the fast calculating speed, which have good prospects of practice.
