IDM
> data acquisition system

A compact and economical multifunction data

acquisition system with unrivalled functionality
and performance

The IDM is designed to address the data recording

requirements of modern distribution or transmission networks.

a powerful platform for the acquisition, analysis and reporting
of data from power system substations.

Each IDM DAU - equipped with a 16-bit processor, 16-bit A/D and powerful DSP processor -
processes analog input data each cycle to compute, in real time, 100 power system
quantities including real and reactive power, sequence components, phasors, harmonics,
frequency, etc. These quantities are then used for simultaneous fault recording, disturbance /
slow scan recording, phasor measurement, power quality recording (EN50160) and can also
be made available to other substation IEDs for integration into SCADA systems.
An upgrade package for existing Hathaway DFRII's, based on the IDM hardware, is available
to provide the extra functionality of the IDM. This upgrade involves changing a number of
cards within the DAU, whilst still retaining the original signal conditioning and isolation
electronics, transforming it into a new fully integrated power system monitoring device.
IDM Profile
n 10 or 16 analog, 16 or 32 event acquisition unit
n Fully multitasking operating system - VxWorks
n Supports multiple concurrent applications
n Network communications - Ethernet (TCP/IP), RS232 (PPP) and Internet / Intranet
n Built in self-checking functions

In addition to fault and disturbance recording the system can

also include power system monitoring, phasor measurement,
event recording, power quality recording, equipment condition
monitoring and SCADA I/O.

TWS
> travelling wave fault locator

An advanced overhead line fault locator

combining high performance with unrivalled
accuracy

T h e Te l e f a u l t T W S o p e r a t e s o n t h e t r a v e l l i n g w a v e p r i n c i p l e
and provides an accuracy of ±150m (±500ft). It can be used
on high voltage AC lines of any length, including those
containing sections of cable, parallel circuits, tapped loads and
series capacitors. It can also be used on HVDC lines.

The Telefault TWS provides three different modes of fault location; Type A, Type D and Type
E. In the Type A and D modes the fault location is determined using the transients generated
by the fault itself. In the Type E mode faults are located using the transients generated by the
re-closure of the circuit breaker onto the faulty line after the initial trip. The TWS is
unaffected by fault resistance and provides a consistent level of accuracy many times better
than conventional ‘impedance’ type fault locators. Phase to ground faults, phase to phase
faults and broken conductor faults, including those clear of ground where no fault current
flows, can all be located with the TWS.
The standard version of Telefault TWS can accommodate up to eight line modules so that
eight circuits can be monitored simultaneously. An integral GPS time receiver is used to
provide the sub-microsecond timing accuracy required for Type D operation whilst multi-
channel high-speed transient recording is used for Type A and Type D operation.
TWS Profile
n Travelling wave based fault location
n Internal modem provided as standard for remote data retrieval and configuration
n Simple and inexpensive installation
n Optional interfacing to SCADA systems / substation IEDs

The TWS package includes TWS Base Station software which

allows full remote interrogation and waveform analysis of fault
records including direct measurement of fault distance, filter
characteristics, amplitude, expansion and comparison of
previous fault data with new data.

unbranched high voltage overhead line networks which may
include short lengths of underground cable. When used on
more complex branched networks the DSFL will accurately
locate faults on the main line and identify a faulty branch.
The Telefault DSFL uses the properties of travelling waves initiated by a fault to determine
the position of the fault. The preferred method of detection of the travelling waves is through
the use of simple ‘clamp on’ sensors which are placed around the secondary wiring of
existing protection CTs. Where no CTs are available, the signals may be derived from existing
capacitor voltage transformers or power line signalling couplers.

compares the actual results with those expected. Any variances outside the limits are
indicated on the print-out and LCD display. Results are presented in both tabular and
graphical format using the built-in fixed head thermal printer.

BCM
> breaker condition monitor
An early warning system for detecting breaker
problems whilst providing a historical reference
for extending breaker maintenance intervals
The BCM range of breaker condition monitors analyse every
circuit breaker operation by comparing the new recorded data
against a stored reference with programmed limits. Contact
duty (e.g. i²t) is accumulated for each phase and alarms are
activated when maintenance or closer inspection is required.
The BCM 200 is used on a one per breaker basis and monitors trip and close coil current
profiles, auxiliary contact timing, battery voltage and charging ripple and main contact duty
(e.g. i²t).
The BCM 200E is also used on a one per breaker basis but has additional inputs to monitor
the extra signals on transmission breakers with three independent mechanisms for each
phase. The BCM 200E monitors trip, backup trip and close coil current profiles, auxiliary
contact timings, battery voltage and charging ripple, main contact duty (e.g. i²t), mechanism
travel and velocity and SF6 gas density.

RMS
> distribution automation controller

A flexible, reliable and inexpensive system to

monitor and control feeder switchgear on
distribution automation systems

f u n c t i o n a l i t y o f a s m a l l S C A D A RT U , f a u l t d e t e c t o r, P L C a n d
power transducers into a single cost effective, compact unit
suitable for substation, pad-mount and pole-mount
applications.

The RMS-900 combines the latest electronic, software and manufacturing technologies to
achieve remote control and / or automatic local control, of circuit breakers, tap changers,
reclosers, sectionalizers or capacitor switches. It combines the functions of a traditional
SCADA RTU with the added benefits of small size and low cost, transducerless
measurement of AC power quantities, fault detection and harmonic analysis.
Example applications include a Distributed RTU (multiple RMS-900s networked and reporting
to another RTU, SIS or SCADA system), a Switch Controller, a Tap Changer Controller or a
Capacitor Bank Switch Controller. The RMS can monitor both sides of a switch and report
status, receive and implement remote control commands, perform automatic PLC-style
control and perform auto-sectionalising and auto-reclosing as part of an automation scheme.
