SCADA Systems Guide for Best Engineering Colleges in Madhya

Pradesh Students
SCADA systems have remained widely used to monitor and control
implementation of various processes performed in different industries.
SCADA is the short form of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition,
which contain different variables to process and monitor constantly to
achieve computation of different parameters for issuing of controllable
commands that too in closed and open loop patterns via combination of
digital and electrochemical equipments.
If you are a student of one of the best engineering colleges in Madhya
Pradesh, it is essential for you to give your valuable time to collect
information about implementation of this system to use in powercontrolled systems.
SCADA System Implementation
Implementation of any large-size SCADA system to perform varying
applications, like control and monitoring of power systems involves
centralized procedure to allow connection of computers to various types of
Remote Terminal Units or RTUs distributed geographically in different
areas with the help of efficient yet advanced communication channels.
RTUs and Dispatchers
Process computer device acquires intelligence from RTUs and performs all
of the necessary processing at internal level by using varying application
software programs executed in PCs on demand basis. Students of best
engineering colleges in Madhya Pradesh and in other regions should
essentially know that the power system dispatchers play major role to
dispatch different types of operations related to issuance of supervisory
controls to open or close Circuit Breakers in different substations.
In addition, dispatchers play major role in reducing or enhancing the
scheduled power interchange with nearby power systems, maintenance of
system parameters, such as power flow, frequency and voltage to perform
analysis and monitoring of various system alarms and accordingly, to take
necessary actions.
Dispatchers are Available with Power Systems Snapshots
Students of best engineering colleges in Madhya Pradesh should
essentially know that dispatchers are available with proper snapshot of
the complete power system to assure proper functioning of dispatchers.
For this, technicians use different substation oriented displays in different
types of computer consoles.

At the initial stage, capturing of data acquisition at substation level in


status of isolators or disconnectors of CBs and Analog values available as
Amps, MVAR and MW and similar others take place by using specific
elements present in RTU.
Master Station as a Scanner
Master station either scans RTU as cyclic pattern or as method of poll-by
exception. Based on the usage of specific communication channel existing
in between RTUs and the Master, data exchange between them is
implemented via either digital or analog media.
Characteristics of data transfer in between RTU and Master is a type of
Master-Slave protocol included in a particular SCADA system. Currently,
one will find varieties of Master-Slave protocols implemented in a
particular type of SCADA system. Majority of these protocols have
remained useful only for providing support to analog communication
channels.
