Lecture 1-Monitoring and Control of

This document discusses supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems used to monitor and control power systems. SCADA systems include a master station located at an electric utility's control center where dispatchers oversee the system, field devices located throughout the power infrastructure, and communications links between all components. The document outlines the various components of SCADA and substation automation systems and their functions, including remote monitoring and control of substations, transmission lines, and distribution systems. It also reviews alarm processing capabilities and typical time frames for actions within power systems.

What is a SCADA System?

Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA)


 Supervisory Control => Remote Control of Field
Devices
 Data Acquisition => Monitoring of Field Conditions
SCADA System Components
 Master Station => System “Nerve Center” Located in
Electric Utility Energy Control Center (ECC);
Dispatchers Use to Monitor and Control Power System
 Field Devices => Needed Wherever There is Data to be
Sent to Master Station (Substations, Lines or Feeders)
 Communications => Links Master Station with Field
Devices; Continuous 24 by 7 Operation
