Title: Managing large-scale multi-voltage distribution system analysis

Conference ·
OSTI ID:192090

The challenge for electricity utilities in the 90`s to deliver ever more reliable service at reduced cost and with fewer technical staff is the driver towards the next generation of automated network analysis tools. The paper discusses the application of an Automatic Loss Minimiser (ALM) and Fault Study Package (FSP) under the control of a Sequence Processor to an existing high resolution graphics network analysis package. Automated, sorted management summaries enable limited resources and system automation to be directed at those networks with the poorest performance and/or the largest potential savings from reduced system losses. The impact regular automatic monitoring has on the quality of the database and the scope for integration of the modules with other System Automation initiatives is also considered.
