5 Process controlling

 The Object identification field shows the name of the substation, bay and device

 The Main tab shows the current state and status of a switch

 the state can be e.g. Open

 the status can be e.g. authorization, blocking, reservation or error

message etc.

 The available functions are based on the configuration of the corresponding standard function

(45)

 The Main tab is also used for operating the switch device

 If controlling is possible, the Open device or Close device button is active

 The secured object control is responsible for the following tasks:

 ensures that the command source is authorized to operate the object

 ensures that only one command source at a time can control the object

 allows only safe commands (interlocking)

 supervises command execution

5.7 Switch control, cont.

5 Process controlling

 There are four different functions on the Forced operation tab

 System level override

 Release device reservation

 Forced open/close control

 Device level override with the IEC 61850 protocol

 Control with interlocking bypass

 Control with synchrocheck bypass

(46)

 If an object is selected on another display or it is under command and you want to have the control for yourself, click Release device reservation

 When this is done Control dialogs disappear from other operators

 On the second monitor the Open device or Close device buttons will be activated

 The performed operation will be normal control operation

5.7.1.1 Release device reservation

Monitor 1

Monitor 2

5 Process controlling

 The internal blockings of SYS600 and control blockings of Power Process Library standard functions can be bypassed with Forced open/close control

 e.g the station or bay L/R switch is not updated

 the disconnector of secondary substation is not updated

 CB is in the middle position (stuck)

 However, this does not disable any interlockings or other IED measures, that is, no special bypass messages are

(47)

 Can be used with IEC 61850 protocol

 If the switch device is interlocked or syncrocheck inhibits the control, the corresponding check-box can be selected and switch device can be controlled in a normal way

 Event List shows that controlling was done with bypass option

5.7.1.3 Device level override

5 Process controlling

 During some communication problems or field device failure, the position of the switch is not automatically known by the system

 By simulation the consistency of the database can be maintained manually in case of an abnormal situation

 Simulation state is indicated on the process displays in blue color and with messages on control dialogs

(48)

 Counts the number of changes in the object state

 The counter increases by one every time the device is closed or earthed

 When the limit is exceeded, the

information is shown in the Object status field of Control dialog and on the

Operation counter tab

5.7.3 Operation counter
