Feeder Automation Designs for Installing an Integrated Distribution Control System

摘要

The distribution automation feeder designs document how the hardware on the 13-kV distribution system is arranged. Four basic types of equipment automation designs are presented: (1) the load-break switch, (2) the power recloser, (3) the voltage regulator, and (4) the capacitor. The basic monitoring and control instrumentation system is discussed. An explanation of how the system parameters are measured, along with the telecommunication techniques used for data transmittal to the Central Control Computer, are provided. An explanation of how the control signal is transmitted to the distribution equipment is also provided. (ERA citation 10:016085)
