SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) Design Real Time Monitoring

20kV Cubicle
By : Akbar Putra Pratama

Summary

Electricity from generator will transfer to consumer through the cubicle, from the
cubicle high voltage until medium voltage, there are many component in the cubicle, from the
cencor component until measuring instrument component. In the old cubicle the component
most use the analog component, analog component have many lacking and its difficult to
read, it can be different in each peson reading. To make it easier to read the values of
measuring instruments, a digital measuring instrument is used and can also be monitored
through SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition). This study goal to design a
monitoring system using a PLC with SCADA for monitoring tools and is useful as a learning
material. The material used for this tool is PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), Current
Transformator, Potential Transformator, Power Meter, Personal Computer.
The principle working from this research like this. From the source or the generator,
electricity will transfer to cubicle, in cubicle the current and voltage electricity will be
detected by Current Transformator and Potential Transformator and then convert it so that it
can be read by the Power Meter. The data obtained by the power meter then sent to PLC. In
PLC the data will be processed for use in SCADA. In SCADA can be known all parameters
such as voltage, current, power, cos phi, frequency and etc. From there we can easily
monitoring and read the parameters on the 20kV cubicle.
This research can be used to monitoring in the industry and can also be made as
learning material in the course.
