Substation Automation
Whether conventional protection and control schemes or full digital substations, our Substation Automation Systems (SAS) feature leading IEDs, protection relays, metering, and monitoring solutions. Based on the latest IEC 61850 and cybersecurity standards, our solutions combine improved interoperability, connectivity and security, with an efficient and easy-to-use operator interface.
We offer reliability when it comes to design, operation and maintenance of your electrical installations. Our competitive and innovative power automation solutions are designed to help you manage energy in the most efficient way possible, ensuring that your system is always available and performing well.
Our controllers and remote terminal units (RTUs) allow for simplified control and monitoring of your electrical substations. They are easy to integrate into your system and offer safe and efficient operation. Easily configurable and user-friendly, our controllers and remote terminal units (RTUs) are designed to monitor and manage demanding electrical assets.
Inside a substation is a harsh environment; it is why you need industrialized devices to manage the communication between substations, systems, devices, protection relays and RTUs. Our communication devices are designed and tested for the substation operation environment to allow you to make a simple choice for reliable communication.
Graphical user interface allows you to interact with your substation digital control systems through graphical icons and visual indicators. Access relevant information anytime when needed and make important decisions. Our straightforward, user-friendly interface assists operators in design, installation, extension and maintenance instances of an electrical automation system’s life.
Using Operational Technology (OT), our solutions offer comprehensive and intuitive cybersecurity configuration and policy tools for any energy management application. Our expert tool is the first piece of a solution for the centralized management of cybersecurity in your electrical network. It offers intuitive solutions for multiple purposes, from the creation of policies and configuration of devices, to defining security logs and access permissions based on different job profiles (RBAC).
Configuring, designing and managing the software of a power automation distributed control system can be a hard task for anyone, particularly non-specialists. Our engineering tools make it possible for regular users like you to efficiently and safely manage your control system. They are very easy to learn and use.
In every substation automation scheme, there is a need to share data with external systems. Our Substation Operation gateway is the ideal solution to connect your connected protection and control devices or digital control systems to external systems like SCADA or EMS.
In addition to digital substation automation schemes (DCS), Schneider Electric also offers the complete study, manufacture, commissioning and expertise of conventional control systems (CCS), based on proven standard schemes, engineered to the exact project requirements.
