Simulation and execution of switching actions
The Switching Manager enables manual planning and simulation of switching actions directly within the Intelligent Grid Platform (IGP). Using load flow calculations based on simultaneity factors or scaling parameters, the impact of planned switching operations can be analyzed. Every simulated switching action is archived, allowing for later review and validation.
Power restoration via neighboring grids and backup assets
With the Switching Manager, specific grid sections or assets can be intentionally disconnected for repairs or maintenance. The app also identifies unpowered areas and provides options for restoring supply through neighboring grids or backup power assets, ensuring a stable energy supply even during disruptions or maintenance work.
Automated generation of switching plans
The Switching Manager automatically generates switching plans based on the simulated switching actions in the IGP. These plans document all executed actions. Once a switching plan is implemented in the grid, it can be activated in the app, keeping all stakeholders up to date.
Automated display of switching history for grid assets
For each grid asset, the app provides a complete switching history, covering all switching actions involving the asset. Additionally, active switch states can be filtered, offering detailed transparency into past switching processes and supporting well-informed operational decisions.
Improved collaboration
With an always up-to-date and accurate grid topology, smooth coordination between grid operations, grid management, and grid planning is ensured.
Enhanced operational security
Simulating switching actions and conducting detailed impact analyses ensure error-free and secure switching processes.
Significant time savings
Automated switching plan generation and archived switching histories reduce manual effort, freeing up resources for other critical tasks.
