Commissioning of Substations: Efficiency, Reliability, and Conprove Technology
Substation commissioning is a critical step in ensuring the safe and efficient operation of electric power systems. This process involves a series of checks and tests to confirm that all system components are operating according to technical and operational requirements.
Conprove, with over 40 years of experience in the power sector, offers complete and innovative solutions for the automation and optimization of commissioning activities through a line of universal testers and a suite of intelligent software that deliver precision, agility, and reliability.
What Does Commissioning Involve?
Commissioning services go far beyond protection relay testing. They include the analysis and verification of several key aspects, such as:
Functional and operational testing of protection relays;
Verification of alarms and warnings in supervisory systems (SCADA);
Inspection of wiring and electrical connections;
Burden measurement in CTs;
Verification of transformation ratio and polarity in PTs and CTs;
Performance, communication, and interoperability testing according to IEC 61850 standards.
With typically short deadlines and high performance expectations, field professionals face the challenge of delivering full efficiency under time constraints. In this context, automated and intuitive solutions make all the difference.
