SIMULATION OF THE SUPERVISORY CONTROL AND DATA ACQUISITION OF THE LOW VOLTAGE POWER GRID BY USING WINCC SOFTWARE

Abstract

The monitoring of the working status and fault reporting of the power feeders is a routine task of the transmission and distribution power system. Equipping knowledge about operation, monitoring and control of power supply systems that is in accordance with reality is a fundamental requirement for electric students. Currently, facilities and models equipped for teaching and learning electrical subjects in colleges and universities are still insufficient due to the high cost of equipment for operating simulation, control and automation in the power system. The article focuses on the simulation of the control, monitoring and data collection system of the low voltage distribution grid by using winCC software applied in teaching the related practical subjects. The goal is to help students access the SCADA system, thereby improving their practical knowledge. The simulation content comprehensively includes the monitoring and control features of the SCADA. The operator can easily monitor the operation status of the  low voltage distribution grid.
