DESCRIPTION
When it comes to managing yoursubstation, the challenges can bedifficult. Anything from unknownequipment status to unexpectedoutages can turn decision makinginto guesswork. Now, GE is bringingyou an improved solution for yoursubstation automation needs. Withintegrated solutions from GE PowerManagement and GE Harris EnergyControl Systems, the total return oninvestment for your substationautomation project can be evengreater.GE Substation Automation systemsprovide comprehensive automatedpower management, protection,control, and monitoring solutionsfor substation automation. Systemsare scalable and upgradable, allowingfor a minimal initial capitalinvestment while maintaining theability to upgrade.In combining the hardware and softwarecomponents required toefficiently integrate various powersystem IEDs, the GE SubstationAutomation system can seamlesslyintegrate IEDs of many sources withdifferent protocols to the substationLAN. Additional substations may beadded to the LAN to further leverageremote access and control. In addition,by using a modular approachand common data structure for integration,the system is easilyexpandable.The GE Substation Automationsystem provides standard networkinterfaces, open-layered multi-protocolsupport, and centralized networkmanagement to efficiently communicatebetween generating plants,substations, and operation centers.Legacy protocol devices can becombined with MMS/UCA2 andDNP 3.0 compliant IEDs or a host ofother protocols including openModBus®/TCP and ModBus® RTUover a high speed fiber optic communicationnetwork to accommodatethe optimum combination of devices.Comprised of communication equipment,protocols, gateways, HMIs,engineering tools, GE’s multilingualUR (Universal Relay) family of IEDsand the D25 IED, the GE SubstationAutomation System directly interfaceswith EMS and SCADA systemsincorporating GUIs (Graphical UserInterfaces) for local and remotecontrol, application development,database management, and enterpriseconnectivity
