Abstract
This paper describes a simulator of power substation automation system developed as part of software suit for complex simulation of power substation operation. This software simulates behavior of a distributed control system built from a group of interconnected and cooperating intelligent electronic devices. The basic structure and communication principles are derived from standard IEC 61850.
Highlights
Operation reliability of an electrical transmission or distribution system is markedly affected by the operation reliability of its nodes – power substations.A power substation is a distributed system built from high number of power and control devices
Many concepts of substation control system architecture were developed in the past, based on different control techniques
The software described in this paper is a key part of an integrated software system for complex simulation of a power substation operation
Summary
Operation reliability of an electrical transmission or distribution system is markedly affected by the operation reliability of its nodes – power substations. A power substation is a distributed system built from high number of power and control devices. Its key component is substation control system because it’s necessary for proper cooperation of high number of power substation’s devices (there can be hundreds of devices in a substation). The scope of use should be primary the testing of new control and protection functions, developing of algorithms for autonomous substation control and analysis of system behavior in different operation situations (primarily by faults). Another important application of this software is in teaching various subjects related to control of power substations, protection of electrical systems and use of information systems in energetics
