Substation SCADA Integration Goals & Expectation's

8

• One Operating Model

— Eliminate SCADA One-Line Displays

— In addition to One Operator Console we wanted operators to have One Model to manage for Outages, Switching, Clearance Processes, & SCADA Control

• Multiple Views of Substation

— Needed the ability of seeing different views of substation for the different process (Outage mgt, SCADA Switching, Etc.)

• Real-Time Display Editing

— Needed the ability of editing SCADA Data in real-time so as to keep pace with business operations

Substation SCADA Integration Goals & Expectation's

9

• New Control Methods

— Needed the ability of having new symbols that represent SCADA Commands – outside of normal control tool (right click feature)

• Different Tags

— Needed to have different method of representing Tags on equipment in Substations

• Navigation Links

— Requested the replacement of existing feature of “Sub Jump Buttons” from Legacy SCADA System

— Required links to SCADA System’s Status Points & Alarm Summary’s

Substation SCADA Integration Goals & Expectation's

10

• General Cosmetic Adjustments

— GIS Tweaks

— Bigger and Smaller Symbols

— Scaling in some stations

— Layer Management

— Operator Involvement

Substation SCADA Integration Lessons Learned

20

• OPEN MIND – Must be willing to change!!!

— Struggled with combining SCADA and OMS display’s in general

• Time to adjust Measurements

— Allow plenty of time to have Operators adjust the stations

• Retaining settings from Patch to Patch

— Be sure to have solid process for keeping the settings when new patches are applied or copying to new environment’s

• GIS/Substation Group Involvement

— Must have GIS on board with dedicated help to make adjustments

— Substations group may have to verify data or adjust mapping

• PLENTY OF ORACLE INVOLEMENT!!!

— Major Product Changes – SCADA Control, Digital Movement, Etc.
