      • Uninterruptible power supply

        It is operated for SA operation processing device by being connected as a substation battery system with a vertical stand-alone type of structure and can supply power supply to SA operation processing device upon substation power outage.

      • Substation-Automation Information Connecting Device

        It receives information from power equipment from multitude of IED’s and RTU’s, provides the relevant information to Regional Control Center(Sub-Control Center) and Distribution Automation System, control commands from which are transmitted to IED or RTU to allow control of substation power facility from SCADA host (RCC/SCC/DAS).
        Substation-Automation Information Connecting Device is designed and realized so as to conform to the communication protocol defined in IEC61850 to transmit/receive information to/from IED.

      • Time synchronization device

        It receives GPS time information through a GPS receiver, and provides GPS time information through SNTP(Simple Network Time Protocol).

      • Power supply device

        It is a structure in front of SA system panel. which facilitates attachment/detachment for convenience of inside checkup and maintenance/repair of each component instrument, allowing operation and manipulation supplying power.

      • Ethernet switch

        It is composed of access ethernet switch connected to SA operation device, IED, etc. and backbone ethernet switch to which the access switches are connected.

      • Panel configuration

        It is the distribution panel supplied for application to substation’s SA system, and composed of SA system panel (Main) including Information Connecting Device, SA system panel (Back up), SA system panel including ethernet switch (ES), and ethernet switch panel.

      • Overall power system diagram

        Operation screen of monitoring, measurement, control for overall power equipment of substation.

        Monitoring of partial power system diagram

        It can configure separate partial operation screen, and represent field operation situations per information group by configuring detailed power system monitoring operation per feeder, state and control screens per gas and equipment group.

      • Event output

        Immediately upon occurrence of alarm(state, analog), the operator is enabled to check in real time by outputting event in the event bar and alarm sound for the relevant event, and alarm history can be inquired later by being saved in DB.
        The contents of event occurrence are outputted per event class in the event bar.
