SPRECON®-E AUTOMATION PLATFORM FOR POWER UTILITIES © Sprecher Automation 2010

® SPRECON -E IS APPLIED AS SPRECON SPRECON-E-C Multifunctional devices for automation, control and remote control SPRECON-E-T3 Compact RTUs for automation and remote control SPRECON-E-P Protection devices and one-box solutions (combined protection and control) -V460 Control center system SPRECON-E is the result of our long-term experience in the areas of power system engineering as well as control and automation. SPRECON-E can be organised decentralised or centralised. All system data is processed either close to the point of data generation or at a central location in the power system,...

A full-graphical HMI guarantees comfortable, clear and secure operating of the power system: process visualisation, archiving functions for events, alarms, measured-values and diagnostics of power system equipment as well as reporting and hardcopy functions. As an extended version, the HMI workstation can be also applied as a control center for supply networks. The station level, which is higher-levelled than the decentral control units, can be also designed as a redundant system. As applied to the complete SPRECON-E platform, the SPRECON-E station computer is also based on a modular...

The concept of the SPRECON-E automation, protection and remote control system is based on technical and economical considerations in order to provide optimal solutions by simultaneously sustaining the overall system concept. All devices are based on a uniform and modular system architecture in terms of hardware, data structures, communication, logical functions as well as engineering and service tools. They are distinguished by their rack sizes as well as their application-related functions. Due to their high scalability, all automation, protection and remote control devices can be applied...

6 © Sprecher Automation 2010 ® SPRECON -V460 PROCESS VISUALISATION Visualisation of a hydroelectric power plant (turbine) Visualisation of a substation SPRECON-V460 also provides the necessary features for follow-up projects. All functions can be copied and easily reapplied to other projects. In the areas of HMI and process visualisation, Sprecher Automation has put the main emphasis on the design of the graphical user interface - especially on user guidance, general usability as well as on the design of the various functions. The system additionally provides an interface to the Internet...

8 SPRECON -E STATION CONTROL ® © Sprecher Automation 2010 Configuration example of a station control system for a substation with IEC 61850 (or IEC 60870-5-104) As a station control system, SPRECON-E can be applied to switchgears and substations of all types and voltage levels. The flexible system concept and the wide-ranging scalability for the components allow practice-oriented, reliable and cost-efficient configurations. As a result, adaptions to specific requirements can be easily accomplished. Beside implementation into new plants, SPRECON-E is also perfectly qualified for retrofit due...
