This paper proposes an agent based integration strategy for software elements at the Distribution Control Centre (DCC). The proposed agent-based software integration enables to "plug-and-play" new software applications developed by any vendor or developer with no or minimal changes in the existing software system at DCC. Consequently, it permits the development of the distribution automation system in a phased manner by different vendors. The strategy has been successfully implemented and tested in an actual 10 MVA, 33 kV distribution system to validate its efficacy.

This paper presents the design and development of a scaled down physical model for power Distribution Automation (DA) system simulation. The developed DA system simulator is useful in providing hands-on experience to utility engineers/managers to familiarise themselves with the DA system and gain confidence in managing the power distribution system from the computer aided distribution control centre. The distribution automation system simulator can be effectively used to carry out further research work in this area. This also helps undergraduate and graduate students to understand power distribution automation technology in the laboratory environment.

Abstract On the basis of analyzing and summarizing the current situation of the construction and use of distribution automation systems at home and abroad, according to the requirements of the use of distribution automation systems, a data two-way interactive distribution automation system architecture design is proposed. In response to the requirements for multi-source data collection in the distribution network, a distribution automation system architecture with partitioned collection and bidirectional data flow is proposed to improve the perception of distribution network equipment. Propose the self-recognition technology of power distribution system and terminal based on IEC61968 and IEC61850 model mapping to realize the fast access of power distribution terminal. Propose a grid integration modeling and global decision analysis method based on model splicing technology to realize multi-dimensional data fusion and analysis applications.

Enhance Efficiency

Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) is a standalone data acquisition and control unit which monitors and controls an equipment at a remote location from the central station that utilizes Distribution Automation System (DAS). The RTU acquires information such as measured values, signal, meter readings and it transmits command or instruction, sets points, controls variables and monitors function time. In the present Distribution Automation System (DAS), the distribution field of automation allows the utilities to implement a flexible control of distribution system to enhance efficiency, reliability, and quality of electric service. The implementation of distribution automation system is highlighted based on two factors; benefit and area of distribution automation system implementation. The hardware design uses PIC16F877A microcontroller to control all the functions of RTU. The types of fault detected are undervoltage and overcurrent. The design consists of MPLAB software development using C programming and hardware assembly. RTU is also designed to communicate with the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system and resulting in RTU’s ability to detect undervoltage and overcurrent fault.
