Power System Monitoring Recorder Product Overview TESLA 4000 is an easy-to-use, state of the art, multi-time frame (simultaneous) power system monitoring recorder. Its integrated Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) functionality streams synchrophasor data for wide area monitoring. The IEC 61850 protocol enabled TESLA has advanced communication capabilities and, together with its powerful recording features, provides the most versatile and complete monitoring of power system health. The TESLA, with over 1000 user definable triggers, creates records simultaneously in 3 time domains – fault (fast), swing (slow) and trend records, and also creates event logs. • Easy-to-use settings and analysis software • Streams synchrophasors per C37.118.1-2011 (IEEE C37.118.1a-2014) standards • Advanced cybersecurity features • Advanced communication protocols • SCADA support with DNP3, Modbus and IEC 61850 • Optional PRP, HSR and RSTP redundancy • CDR meets NERC PRC-002 DME standards • Remote input modules save on costly wiring runs • Lossless data compression for fast file transfer Its CDR creates continuous records without triggers which (together with the fault, swing and trend records) provide wide area visibility of system performance. The CDR also creates redundancy in PMU data. TESLA has 256 virtual inputs to record digital status changes contained in IEC 61850 GOOSE messages, thus expanding its monitoring capabilities. The TESLA 4000 is available in 2 models with 36 analog/64 digital inputs/8 digital outputs, or with 18 analog/32 digital inputs/4 digital outputs.
