Discussion on the development direction of substation automation

Scientific and technological development of productive forces is one of the most critical factors to promote the development of China's electric power industry. "Science, rationality and innovation" is a major difficulty to be considered in China electric power industry. How to develop substation automation system and its development process? At the same time, we will discuss the structure and function of the substation, and investigate and summarize the practical application of the substation.

"Developing electric power through science and technology" is a new concept of developing productive forces through science and technology. Driven by science and technology, the innovation and development of power system automation will develop diversified models. "Dispatching, substation, transmission network, etc." A series of automatic power systems. The development mode of modern automation is complex and diverse, and its principles are changeable. At present and in the past, "substation automation system (secondary system problem)" has been concerned by the power industry, and safety is also a hot issue in the power industry.

I. Overview of Substation Automation

Substation integrated automation is an automation control technology in substation field, which takes the development of "information and technology" processing and transmission as the leading factor, and uses computer hardware or automation devices instead of manual operation, thus improving the level of automation operation and efficient management. Its main feature is automatic mechanization mode [1]. Substation automation is a complex, which is a computer model unified by a series of microcomputer control, monitoring and operating systems.

Second, an overview of the development process

Substation is developing from traditional single automation to multi-automation stage.
