Energy transmission uses high voltage levels in order to transfer energy over long distances with minimum losses. In substations, the high voltage levels are transformed to medium and low voltage levels for distribution. The corresponding medium- and low-voltage power grids are highly interconnected, and thus require many circuit breakers in order to make or break any required connections.

However, the most important task of circuit breakers is probably breaking a fault current. Breaking high fault currents that are many times the rated current within a fraction of a second requires breakers to be in perfect condition. Thus, they must be regularly tested in order to make sure that they work when it really counts. Routine tests will typically include timing and contact resistance measurements. Additional tests allow a more comprehensive condition assessment of all breaker parts. These can include motor current, dynamic contact resistance, and contact travel. Test devices with an inbuilt power supply can even test breakers in undervoltage conditions and find the minimum voltages necessary for trip, close, and undervoltage coils. All of these tests combined reveal important information about the planning and execution of timely breaker maintenance. Condition-based maintenance can help preventing breaker malfunction, prolong breaker lifetime, and minimize unplanned outages; for a safe and reliable supply of electric power for everyone.

????✅ IEDScout is an ideal tool for protection and substation automation engineers working with IEC 61850 devices. It provides access to the IEDs (Intelligent Electronic Devices) and performs numerous useful functions when working with them.

The software can simulate entire Ed. 2 and Ed. 1 IEDs and enables users to extensively test IEDs. IEDScout allows the engineer to look inside the IED and at its communication. All data modelled and exchanged becomes visible and accessible. IEDScout visualizes IEC 61850 GOOSE, and Reports. As additional services Control, Setting Groups, File Transfer and more are supported. Additionally, IEDScout serves numerous useful tasks, which could otherwise only be performed with dedicated engineering tools or even a functioning master station. IEDScout shows an overview representing the typical workflow of commissioning, but also provides detailed information upon request.

IEDScout can be operated on Windows PC or on the cyber-secure test sets MBX1 or RBX1.

The #OMICRON CIBANO 500 circuit breaker test set offers advanced testing methods for high and medium voltage circuit breakers. The test device can make use of its internal power supply, timing meter and µOhm meter in order to perform a number of tests on circuit breakers.

Routine tests on circuit breakers will typically include timing and contact resistance measurements. Fingerprinting through dynamic resistance measurements combined with measuring motion and motor current curves, allow deterioration trends to be discovered.

Ideally, circuit breaker tests should also include the testing of any special functions of a circuit breaker, such as the detection of overvoltage and undervoltage conditions, or the measurement of the minimum voltage necessary to trip and close the breaker (Minimum pick-up test).

CIBANO 500 allows users to test all of these functions with a single device. This video shows how medium voltage circuit breakers can comprehensively be tested with CIBANO 500.
