IED Insulator Monitoring System

Project Summary

Prior to the implementation of the system, there was no parameter reading for testing insulators and no live monitoring faclity to testing insulators.

This system is essential to address these shortcomings and establish a comprehensive solution for Monitoring testing Insultors performance and recording Insulator parameter data.

Platform

SCADA System + PLC + Control Panel + Temprature Sensor

Challenges

Data Monitoring & Recoding

Our SCADA system monitors the Voltage, Current, and Temperature parameters of the IED insulator and logs those parameters in the database.

The system enables real-time monitoring and, in case of a temperature breach, initiates an automatic power cutoff, Additionally, it features a cycle-wise report generation function with advanced parameter filtration, allowing for precise analysis and reporting.

This comprehensive solution enhances reliability and performance, ensuring the integrity of the monitored infrastructure.
