Introduction
•Electric power distribution system is an important part of
electrical power systems in delivery of electricity to consumers.
•Electric power utilities worldwide are increasingly adopting the
computer aided monitoring and control.
• Therefore, research and development activities worldwide are
being carried out to automate the electric power distribution
system utilizing recent advancement in the area of Information
Technology (IT) and data communication system.
•Power system automation focuses use of transformers, circuit
breakers, relays, generators, capacitors, regulators, monitoring,
and control equipment in a efficient manner.
TECHNIQUES USED
Data Acquisition System :
Data acquisition refers to collection of data in the form of
analog
measured voltage and current.
Power system supervision
Computer processes ,personnel supervises and monitor
The status and condition of power system using the acquired data.
Power system control
Control refers to sending messages to a device to operate I&C
and power system devices.

I&C System IEDs


I&C devices uses microprocessor based
intelligent electronic devices to process
data, accept commands and communicate
information between the power network.

Instrument Transformer
These are extensively used for
Sensing and measuring current and
voltage in power system
Remote Terminal Unit :-
RTU is an IED which is installed at the
remote location and acts as a termination
point of network. Dedicated pair of copper
conductor is used to sense every contacts
and transducer value.

 Metering
It is an IED which is used for
measurement of accurate values of
voltage, current , power and power factor
and stores the historical data.
AUTOMATED METER READING (AMR)

Automated meter reading is a communications service that


permits the transfer of data from
utility meters to a utility company’s metering collection system.
As such, AMR automates the
previously manual process of reading meters. Also, it allows the
collection of much more and
different types of information to benefit the utility and customer
alike.
BENEFITS OF AMR
• Reduces Labour cost
• Improves safety of personnel working in high risk fields
• Improves bill accuracy
EXAMPLE OF DISTRIBUTION
AUTOMATION SYSTEM

Distribution automation systems easily demonstrate the value in automating


control of the power system.
Two line radial distribution network with three manually operated
switches for line segregation and load transfer.
ADVANTAGES
 Reduced technical and Commercial losses
 Improved Operational Planning and Remote Load
Control
 Enhanced Power Quality Service
 Reliability in Electrical Protection
 Display of real time substation information in a central
control room
 Advanced supervisory control over the power network
 Intelligent Load Shedding
APPLICATION

 Meeting the Load Demand Management


 Substation Monitoring and Information
 Reduction of Power Interruption
 Reduction of Voltage Flicker Using Adoptive VAR
Compensator
 Load Forecasting
CONCLUSION

Power utilities have realized the need for full scale distribution
automation to achieve on-line system information and remote
control system. The main motivation for accepting the distribution
automation in developing countries such as India is to improve
operating efficiency of distribution system.
