OMICRON’s latest article offers tips on how to get the most out of your testing
OMICRON’s latest article offers tips on how to get the most out of your testing, ensuring safety and efficiency.
Protection relays supervise the correct functioning of high voltage (HV) and medium voltage (MV) power grids and connected assets, to support a continuous power supply. If installed and maintained properly, they allow for fast, reliable and selective fault elimination, while simultaneously guaranteeing a maximum of personnel and asset safety.
In its article, OMICRON is offering tips on how to significantly reduce the labour involved with testing protection relays, by as much as 70%, while simultaneously raising the test quality by using Advanced Protection Testing.
As explained in the article, Advanced Protection Testing approaches, such as organised, standardised or even automated parameter-based and system-based testing, allow for a maximum in safety, quality, and reliability. At the same time, they reduce testing time as well as outages substantially. Of course, this directly impacts related costs. In addition, such an approach allows to maintain and transfer competencies and expertise among personnel, as well as drive the technological evolution of protection systems.
In addition to sharing tips on using Advanced Protection Testing, the OMICRON article highlights a pilot project conducted with Al-Babtain and the Saudi Electricity Company to verify the company’s findings.
