Powering the Future: The Architecture and Standards of Digital Substations
Traditional power system protection and control architectures depend on hardwired connections between instrument transformers, power system apparatuses, and intelligent electronic devices. However, advancements in microprocessor-based relaying and network architecture have facilitated the development of digital protection systems. The IEC 61850 standard establishes a framework for managing protection and control systems via digital communication networks. This framework promotes flexible design, enhances interoperability between vendors, improves documentation, and reduces costs. This seminar will explore the components and benefits of digital protection systems as well as the industry’s response to these advancements.
