EcoStruxure™ Power Automation System Engineering
IEC 61850 configuration software for substation automation systems
Features
EcoStruxure™ Power Automation System Engineering – EPAS-E (formerly EcoStruxure Grid Engineering Advisor ) is a software platform for power application modeling.
Today, IEC 61850 is a powerful standard that is bringing a revolution in the way we design, configure, and maintain power automation control systems, helping you choose the best products from different vendors that fit all your application needs.
It can help you:
- Avoid choosing the wrong product during the procurement phase
- Avoid non-quality costs due to incomplete requirements
- Avoid interoperability issues
- Reduce delivery time
- Standardize your applications and reuse
- Harmonize data models to make maintenance much easier in a multivendor environment
It can integrate products compliant with Ed1, Ed2, and Ed2.1 from any vendor while supporting mapping to protocols like Modbus & IEC104.
From specification to configuration… its capabilities… comprehensive!
