Protection, Automation and Control

Well-functioning protection, automation, and control (PAC) systems improve grid stability and accelerate fault isolation and restoration. Holistic testing helps protect your system from hidden failures.

Overview

Safer Grids Start with Smarter Testing

PAC systems are becoming more complex. A fault in one area can cascade quickly if protection logic or communications fail to behave as intended. Therefore, integrated testing approaches and versatile solutions are needed during commissioning and regular maintenance for conventional, hybrid, and IEC 61850 systems. They must cover the interaction among all involved components, from simple wiring to in-depth troubleshooting of individual assets.
