WHAT IS SCADA
• SCADA stands for Supervisory Control And
Data Acquisition.
• SCADA refers to a system that collects data
from various sensors at a factory, plant or in
other remote locations and then sends this
data to a central computer which then
manages and controls the data.
AIM OF SCADA SYSTEM
• Power System Visualization
• Tools for Efficient Grid Operation
• Guiding Control Engineers at Regional, State and Sub-
Load Dispatch Centres on real time
• Post Operation or Historical Analysis
• Future Planning.
SCADA ARCHITECTURE
• First generation: Monolithic
• Second generation: Distributed
• Third generation: Networked
FUNCTIONS OF SCADA
• DATA ACQUISITION.
• CONTROL
• PROCESSING OF ACQUIRED DATA.
• DATA EXCHANGE
• LIMIT / STATUS MONITORING & ALARMING.
• TAGGING
• LOGGING
• INFORMATION STORAGE & RETRIEVAL.
SCADA Operation classified into three parts
1. INPUT
• ANALOG : Continuous Electrical Signals
Ex.Active Power (MW), Reactive
Power(MVAR), Voltage (KV), Frequency
(Hz).etc..
• DIGITAL : Switching Signals High(1) or
Low(0) Signal Ex.Breaker Close(high) or
Open(low), Isolator Closed(high) or
Open(low).
PROCESS
o The signals are converted into digital format
Implement protocol between Master and Slave.
o It operates with Real Time Operating System
(RTO) .
OUTPUT
o The results are exposed with user friendly
environment.
o Through displays can be possible.
o To control the substation and generating station.
SCADA AS A SYSTEM
TYPICAL SCADA SYSTEM
System components:
• Human-Machine interface (HMI)
o presents data to a human operator.
o Helps human operator to monitor and control the process.
• TRANSDUCER
o Current Transducers.
o Voltage Transducers.
o Power Transducers.
Master Terminal Unit(MTU) :
• Heart of the system
• Initiates communication, store information ,gather
data and interface with operators
Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) :
• scan the data from external connected device.
• connects to sensors in the process.
• converting sensor signals to digital data.
• sending digital data to the supervisory system.
Programmable Logic Controller (PLCs):
• used as field devices because they are more
economical, versatile, flexible, and
configurable than special-purpose RTUs.
Communication infrastructure:
• connects the supervisory system to the
Remote Terminal Units
Video Project Display (VPD)
• It is giant screen for visualizing Substation
Single Line Diagrams, System Demand
Particulars, and Inter state Drawls from
long Distance.
• The picture was export on it from one of
the local work station.
• It is control by Window based PC.
USE OF SCADA IN INDIAN POWER DISTRIBUTION
FEATURES OF SCADA
REAL TIME AND HISTORICAL TREND
• plays very important role in the process
operation.
• If batch fails or the plant trips, the historical
trend data analyzed.
• Gives better look of the parameters through
the trend.
• ALARMS
o have a very critical role in automation.
o Generally we have alarm states for each
inputs/outputs.
• RECIPE MANAGEMENT
o When different products to manufacture load
the recipe of the particular product
• SECURITY
can allocate certain facilities or features to the
operator, process people, engineering dept
and maintenance dept.
• DEVICE CONNECTIVITY
SCADA software should have connectivity to
the different hardware used in automation
Power System Model semantic
Element
APPLICATION PROGRAMS
• Fault location, isolation and Service Restoration
• Maintaining good voltage profile
• Load Balancing
• Load Control
• Remote metering
• Energy accounting
CONCLUSION
• It can reliably monitor and control a process
without requiring an operator’s supervision
• It allow to count, totalize, trend, data log and
calculate valuable information about your
process.
• Helps to save money on, man-hours,
maintenance, electric power and natural
resources.
