Electrical Automation of Distribution Network in Transformer Substation
In this paper, SCADA, and PLC (programmable logic controller) are used in the substation to automate the control of transformers. The substation is where the power for the generator and the primary supply comes from the generating station to the distributor or the. Previously, Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) were solely employed as intermediaries between the electric power switchgear at the process level in substations and the network management system of utilities for long - range surveillance purposes (refer to Figure 1 below). Abstract : Substation automation represents a significant advancement in the management and operation of electrical substations, leveraging digital technology, intelligent systems, and communication networks to optimize the performance, reliability, and efficiency of power distribution networks.
