overview of the etap power system
monitoring and simulation psms solution
we will demonstrate how etap bsms
interfaces with typical electrical
devices in order to collect live data
next we will demonstrate the benefits
and some of the applications of using
digital twin analysis with live data
using the predictive simulation feature
we will also demonstrate how an
electrical scada can be deployed using
the digital twin model
and finally we will demonstrate our
situational intelligence feature
providing unique insights on the state
and behavior of the electrical system
heat up power system management
leverages the digital twin model to
monitor operate and simulate for a wide
range of mission critical Industries
like generation industrial
transportation and low voltage systems
using the digital twin model users can
create powerful but simplistic HMI views
to Monitor and operate all electrical
assets
it also combines the intelligence of the
digital twin simulation to reproduce
back notes and analyze events to
understand the behavior of the
electrical system against real-time or
historical operating conditions
features like situational intelligence
provide operators with high level
insights of the response of the
electrical system before any operator
action
first let's take a look on how etap bsmn
solution interfaces with electrical
devices and Enterprise systems bringing
the system from design to operation
one of the major advantages of working
with etap is continuous evolution of the
electrical model allowing The Continuous
life of the electrical model from the
style to operation
it all starts with the electrical model
based on the intelligence invested in
creating the digital twin we will
leverage the model to deploy different
types of solutions for monitoring and
operation
now with the model online
optimization tools like situational
intelligence and predictive simulation
are used to better understand the online
response of the electrical system and
get feedback on how to improve the
electrical model
these valuable insights will help to
develop a far better understanding on
the electrical operation
every time with better understanding of
the behavior of the electrical system
now in the next sections we will take a
look on how we can start to get live
data into the digital twin
the first part of moving from the sign
to operation is understanding how etap
psms will interface with electrical
devices to obtain live data
on a typical site regardless of the
industry there are typical electrical
devices that provide live measurements
examples of this are protection release
power quality meters power meters rtu
just The Mention Of You
in order to interface with these devices
we will add a data collection server
this data collection server uses the
existing infrastructure on the facility
to interface with electrical devices
our etap data collection server is
capable of handling many of the common
communication protocols for electrical
devices
such as IEC 61850 modbus the MP3
Etc
once ETA psms can establish
communication to the devices we can
bring the digital twin model online
etab will read critical measurements
such as power flows voltage currents
Etc
and also critical indicators such as
strip changes in status alarms Etc at
this point Engineers can start using the
digital twin model to run simulations
using live data
additionally
ETA psms can interface not only with
electrical devices but also other data
sources to read critical data for the
electrical operation
examples of these are processes scada
DCS Etc
next from the digital twin model you can
deploy very simple but powerful HMI
displays to monitor the system
additionally operator displays can be
deployed to securely operate the system
note that the psms is Hardware
independent so etab can communicate to
any manufacturer regardless of the brand
Italian psms solution can be scaled to
an Enterprise solution earlier we
demonstrated a simple version to deploy
the system
however this is a solution that can be
scaled to fit complete Enterprise
Solutions
the robust client server architecture
enables deployment and support for
multiple clients
from clients located in dedicated
workstations to secure web clients that
can monitor data from the web or mobile
devices
scalable and modular design allows
application servers to be deployed in
separate machines for large Enterprise
systems
also scalability allows to expand
features with the site needs
for example
a facility can start with just an
operator HMI but later on can add other
features like operator trading simulator
or e-protect solution High availability
allows continued support for a
continuous operation of the system in
the event of a contingency either single
site or through multiple sites
with the integration of secured managed
access administrators can restrict
unauthorized access and limit user roles
and actions
all in order to create secure access
portals for users to monitor their data
portable visualization also allows users
to visualize the digital twin and
Analysis modules on a secure platform
either hosted on site or on the cloud
etap includes powerful tools to help you
interface electrical devices to your
digital twin
on the etab model
we start by identifying points where
live measurements are available
in this example we indicate the
electrical model that at this location
we have a device that can provide online
measurements like power status
indicators alarms Etc
the etap scan integrator tool allows you
to create building blocks called device
model
to Define typical measurements for a
device
you can link the device model to all
etab components sharing the same typical
measurements
using this type of integration
it reduces the amount of time spent on
integration
the etap scan integrator now has a cross
reference between an electrical
component modeled on etap to an actual
physical device providing live
measurements
in this demo we cannot serve the
electrical model is now reflecting the
areas where live measurements are
available
this is the same model that was used for
power system analysis the difference
that on this model we have included all
metering components to reference where
live measurements are available
every component is also modeled to a
voltage in current source to better
represent the power flow
on the scav integrator tool we can see
every component listed here
additionally in the device model section
you can see all the building blocks for
all the typical devices used across the
site for example on this demo I have
listed all the protection relays power
quality meters rtus that can provide
data we can see that for this typical
relay I have added all power
measurements breaker status
and relay alarms
each device model is linked to all the
components in the electrical model using
the same characteristics
once Anita component is linked to a
device model
then the etab scad integrator will
dynamically create tags
this workflow
makes the process of integration very
simple and fast because every component
is linked to a live measurement already
modeled on the digital twin
now after the database is complete we
can now go online
in this section we will take a look on
validating the digital twin and also
predicting system response
predictive simulation feature
psms will increase the visibility by
leveraging online data and the digital
twin in order to create several
measurements to estimate the power flow
across the rest of the model including
areas where metering is not possible
Additionally the ETA psms will validate
monitored data versus the electrical
model
this is one of the advantages of using a
digital twin solution this will bring to
light any discrepancies between the
digital twin model against operating
conditions
this will also validate the quality of
all measurements
an electrical perspective
in this demo we can see the electrical
model now displaying data from all
electrical devices with live
measurements
now since we have live data and an
electrical model with nominal data
impedances ratings typical loading Etc
itapsms can predict the power flow
across the rest of the model
these new measurements displayed in red
indicate the estimated power flow where
metering is not possible
the state and load estimation feature
will predict these measurements across
the model
Additionally the electrical validation
tool allows to validate light
measurements versus the electrical model
this helps to bring to light any
discrepancies for example issues where
the model component does not reflect the
ask build or the operating ratings
creating a deviation between the
predictive power flow
this will also help to continuously keep
the electrical model up to date to
reflect the as operating conditions
predictive simulation you can also
evaluate the behavior and response even
different conditions
let's take a look at three common
scenarios where you can use online
simulation in the areas of operation
planning and switching changes
in operations we can evaluate the
changes of taking a critical circuit
breaker out of service
and see how it affects relay
coordination
for planning we can evaluate what is the
effect of increasing the load this could
be because of operations requires
certain increase of loads to a
substation due to changes in the process
where there are changes in the
electrical process
another scenario is evaluating the
effects of switching sequences
this could be switching from a servicing
bus from A to B or taking a circuit
breaker out of service we would like to
evaluate how this is going to impact arc
flash values
with the predictive simulation running
with online data
ETA takes a live snapshot of online
conditions such as circuit breaker
status operating load and generation
both voltages and other measurements to
the analytical engine
then users can take this online snapshot
to create changes
with the digital twin
this is now where users can create
scenarios for changes with online
conditions to run the simulation
finally users can evaluate the result of
the simulation and take action
based on the predictive simulation users
can determine if the action may cause an
undesired behavior on the system
predictive simulations are available on
any of the etap simulation modules using
either real-time data or historical data
next I will make a demonstration on how
real-time data can be used on predictive
simulation
in etap we create side-by-side views
showing online presentation and
assimilation presentation
note that you can run any simulation
module using etap real-time data or
historical data in this demo we have one
line view on the left side and a
simulation on the right side
in this demo we can also evaluate what
is the effect of suddenly taking the
generator out of service
next I will go ahead and open the
circuit breaker of the generator and run
and load load simulation
we can observe that taking this action
will cause alarms as you can see from
the alarms the Transformer xt2 will be
overloaded
on another demo we can evaluate the
certain increase on the amount of a load
due to changes in the operation
for this I will enter the new value
and run the simulation
as you can see increasing the load at
this location is also going to create
additional events in this case it will
overload Transformer xd1
on another demo we can run a transient
stability study case to observe how does
it affect coordination on Breakers
on this scenario using live condition we
will simulate the trip of a circuit
breaker of a tie circuit breaker after
100 milliseconds
as you can see this also causes the trip
circuit breaker to A1 because of another
current
last on this demo we cannot serve the
changes of doing a switching sequence
in this demo we're taking down a
transformer for maintenance using
real-time conditions then we evaluate
each step and observe any alarms
generated
from this simulation we can see that
this action causes multiple overloads on
the system
in addition to the electrical validation
and predictive simulation features
etap psms includes visualization tools
for operators
etap includes native tools that allow to
convert etap model to an HMI page this
is a great tool to save time building
hmis
one major advantage is a drastic
reduction on the number of animations
and calculation tags required
from etap you can export your model and
quickly create HMI tools
this will help to reduce the time
invested on animations required to
display the correct color for
advertisation by using the etap model
the etap HMI engine uses the same
switching device continuity coloring
just like etap therefore if an element
is energized in etap it will also show
generalized in the etap HMI in addition
user defined custom summary views for
monitoring can be generated
these are particularly useful if you
want to have detailed views for specific
electrical components
in addition
user-defined custom summary views for
monitoring can be generated
these are particularly useful if you
want to have detailed views for a
specific electrical components in this
example we can see how you can create a
dedicated pop-up for an equipment and
include additional critical data from
the systems such as phase measurements
alarm critical alerts from the equipment
my viewer includes powerful
visualization and Analysis tools
HMI clients are supported either as a
standalone or web HMI clients
alarm and notifications in case an event
is detected or measurements operating
outside of a normal range custom reports
can also provide additional operational
data
for example you can use the reports to
evaluate the energy usage per operating
process in an electrical system to
evaluate their efficiency similarly
Trends can be used to view changes over
time of critical measurements for
example changes on the power factor over
the main lines to evaluate the operation
efficiency in this demo we can see the
HMI Standalone client displaying summary
views in addition navigation bars are
implemented to make easy to find any
page web HMI clients provide the same
portability using HTML5
also any alarms or event processed by
the etap psms server are also visible to
the clients either Standalone or web
user report features allows to create
quick reports to visualize past behavior
on devices in this demo we are
generating a quick report to get the
feeder load sampled every 5 minutes for
a particular substation
our Trend tool also allows to create
quick Trends to visualize past behavior
for equipment
in this case I'm adding a new trend for
a motor
and I'm also adding all of the critical
measurements that I need to analyze
next I would like to show you the etap
situational intelligence product
ESI is the intelligence behind the etap
scada solution
whether a site is a new Greenfield
implementation or is already in
operation
itapsi brings the scada to the next
level by bringing new information not
offered on a typical scada
situational intelligence will
continuously scan the operating state of
the system by integrating with ETA power
system monitoring
it will predict and identify areas
before the operator takes any action
these insights will help the operator
confidence to take actions because we
already know how the system will behave
additionally
ESI can provide unique insights about
your system highlighting the problem
equipment than areas of the network
which could benefit from maintenance and
upgrades
this product is a multi-product
integration aimed to provide a
continuous system evaluation and provide
a simplified and easy to read analysis
the heart of the situational
intelligence product is the etap digital
twin which is the digital representation
of the electrical equipment in the field
State and load estimation is used to
analyze and estimate real-time operating
conditions throughout the entire system
using predictive simulation feature we
identify each electrical analysis that
will need to be evaluated for example we
can use low flow to continuously
evaluate a certain increase of load
or strength and stability to
continuously evaluate the system
response against the start of a very
large motor
scheduled scenarios are used to list all
predictive simulations that will be
running continuously
this is scheduled scenarios will
continuously run each configured
predictive simulation to proactively
identify how the system will behave if
certain events or action will occur
finally the results are displaced and
accessed using etap web HMI client
making it easy to visualize system
response before any action is taken
note that these visualizations are
provided in a way that operators can
easily read and identify the effects of
certain events of the system without
detailed engineering analysis
now let's take a look at this demo this
digital twin model is already enhanced
by adding meters to reflect all
locations where live measurements are
available
as soon as I'm online you can see the
state estimation feature using the
digital twin model and live measurements
to continuously predict the power flow
across the rest of the model
State estimation also creates additional
notifications in areas where the
estimated power flow is operating
significantly outside the nominal range
this intelligence alarm consider the
digital twin model and live measurements
to provide insights on the health of the
operation
this is a very unique feature not
available on a typical scada system
now I will go to the simulator mode and
create the scenario
I predefined a scenario to isolate a
critical Transformer this section is
where I will Define all of the critical
scenarios that will require to be
evaluated continuously
then using the etab web client all
scenarios are added and configured to
run periodically here they are running
every three minutes against real-time
data
after this setup my etab web clients can
now visualize the results for all
scenarios configured
web clients are presented to operators
so they can easily evaluate the results
of all predefined predictive simulations
originally created by the electrical
engineer without requiring detailed
analysis
using situational intelligence web
client users are presented with a high
level summary of the results indicating
the health of the electrical system
they can also pre-validate the system
response to an action to be performed
in this demo we can observe the view of
the etap web clients
for each predictive simulation schedule
I will navigate to my alerts section you
can see which scenarios will lead to
alerts for example here the isolation of
Transformer t47 has no alerts but if I
start a large Crusher motor I will have
critical alerts
and here if I SLA Transformer t67 I will
have marginal alerts
with this information it is clear to the
operator that they should not perform
certain actions without consulting an
engineer to make sure that the system is
going to behave correctly
in conclusion
etap psms offers many benefits not found
on a typical scada
The Continuous evolution of the digital
twin allows to improve model accuracy
and reduce validation time this also
makes it easier to debug the electrical
system
the integration of the digital twin and
scada solution under one platform makes
the deployment of a simple but powerful
hmis for operators using
state-of-the-art tools like scada
integrator
the ability to predict and resolve cause
of operation problems helps to increase
the reliability since Engineers have a
better insights about the behavior and
response of the electrical system using
real-time or historical conditions
and finally the integration of tools
like situational intelligence help to
improve the system confidence for
operators to make decisions with better
confidence understanding the potential
response of the system to any action
they take
