Process Interface
The interfaces
• Analog Input
– CT & VT for Current & Voltage measurments
– Ranges 1-5A, 100-200 V AC
– Temperature
• Binary Input
– Breaker status, Normally using two indicators to
indicate intermediate status
– Tap changer positions
• Binary outputs
– Controlling the operation of circuit breakers/switches
– Two BO in series for normal switching
– One single BO for circuit breaker tripping
• Analog outputs

What do we want to automate?
23
Interlocking
• To ensure that operation of Switchgear is
safe and in accordance with standards
24
12
Switching Sequences
• To ensure that switching operations are
performed in a correct sequence, and to
automate manual work
25
Load Management
• Automation shedding of load, and
restoration of load.

Substation Automation Development
• Traditional Substation
• Functions tied to physical device
• Measurement connection based on
point to point links (Copper wires)
• Some buses for relay
communication
61850 Substation
• Limited standardisation & vendor
integration
• Information model separated from
protocol implementation
• Improved vendor interoperability
• Point to multipoint Measurement
access via sampled values (-9-2)
• ”Free” allocation of functions to
devices.
