Failure of power system components cause undue interruptions to Power Supply thereby affecting the Overall System reliability. Consequently, Power system reliability assessment is important for high-quality and continuous power delivery to consumers. This chapter presents the reliability assessment of Mofor Injection Substation. The performance evaluation of Mofor Injection Substation is evaluated using various system parameters which regulate the operation of the Substation. Statistical data from January, 2017 to December, 2017 were used to analyze the Substation. The results gave a power availability index (ASAI) of 0.7683796 and 0.768968 for Ekete and Orhuworun substation, respectively, due to the unavailability of strategically placed distributed generators (DGs). The aforementioned reliability result revealed that the power distribution at Mofor Injection Substation can be said to be unreliable, inefficient, undesirable, and Unstable.

Rules Set

Can-Sized satellite (canSAT) is a small satellite that is used for educational purpose. CanSAT offer student to build their satellites with their creativity which make the learning process more effective. In Malaysia, SiswaSAT is held by the Malaysia Space Agency for students in different categories to participate and build their satellites according to rules set and it should be a low-cost project. CanSAT can be divided into few parts which are communication system, onboard data acquisition, ground control station and power system. The power system is one of the important and heaviest subsystems, it needed to supply power, but weight and size are one of the main concerned as the canSAT should not exceed the required weight and selecting power supply that is matched with the overall power budget that has small size and lightweight is challenging. Therefore, the power supply selection should consider this detail. The power distribution design should be able to supply an appropriate amount of current and voltage to the components according to their specification. This study aims to develop and test the proposed prototype which is named ScoreSAT able to provide data and have enough power supply for the whole operation. Therefore, an initiative to develop the appropriate power distribution design for canSAT is taken to overcome the problem of the power system. Moreover, each subsystem needs to be tested by obtaining the results from the onboard data acquisition and transmit the data using the communication system before integrating into the power system. ScoreSAT prototype needs to carry the system that is mounted inside, thus the space inside the prototype needs to be fully utilized for the whole system to fit in. ScoreSAT completes the mission by obtaining data acquisition during the operation.
