ELECTRONIC SYSTEM
FOR POWER PLANT
1. Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system: This subsystem provides real-
time monitoring and control of the power plant's equipment and processes. It collects data from
various sensors and devices throughout the plant and displays it on a computer screen for operators
to monitor. Operators can also use the system to control equipment and adjust process parameters
as needed.
2. Distributed Control System (DCS): This subsystem is responsible for controlling the
individual components of the power plant, such as boilers, turbines, and generators. It receives
commands from the SCADA system and sends signals to the plant's equipment to adjust settings
and control operations.
3. Plant Information Management System (PIMS): This subsystem collects and analyzes data
from various sources within the plant to provide operators with a comprehensive view of the
plant's performance. It can help operators to identify trends and anomalies in the data that may
indicate potential problems or opportunities for optimization.
4. Asset Performance Management (APM) system: This subsystem helps operators to manage
the maintenance and repair of the plant's equipment. It can provide real-time monitoring of
equipment health and performance, alert operators to potential issues, and help to schedule
maintenance activities to minimize downtime and maximize efficiency.
Overall, an electronic system for power plant operations can help operators to optimize the
performance of their plant, reduce downtime and maintenance costs, and improve overall safety
and reliability.
Some of the key components of
an electronic system for power
plant operations include:
