This project uses a digitised approach where a single processing unit protects the entire substation. It also gives remote access to fault information, which may assist in a reduction of customer minutes lost during power cuts, and provides information which can be used to determine whether maintenance of plant and equipment is required.
Reduction in costs of installation due to reduced hardware and a reduction of costs during storms if details can be extracted remotely about the type of faults that have occurred.
