Abstract

The proposed solution is interface of SCADA with GIS system. The SCADA system will continuously get the real time readings of all electrical parameters at monitored points on feeders. These parameters include Voltage, Angle, Power Factor, Active Power, Reactive Power and Energy. The system shall also get the status of various switching devices like circuit breakers, switches and isolators. It will also get the transformer parameters like tap position, etc. Electronic meters will be installed at HT consumers. These meters will be equipped with the interface for communications with the SCADA system. SCADA system will becommunicating with the meters using an industry standard protocol. Meter readings shall be used to monitor the load and for detection of attempts to tamper with the meter. As soon as a tamper is detected the meter/consumer shall be tagged on the GIS system.
