As a protection tester, you can now validate your protection system before installing it – by testing with digital twins of protection relays. Digital twins come with many advantages: you do not need any spare IEDs for testing, you have no output power limitations, And you can use an unlimited number of virtual test signals.

With RelaySimTest you can test your protection system effectively and efficiently with digital twins. You can simulate your power system and adapt
this simulation iteratively corresponding to the Trip and Close commands. You can simulate real power system scenarios, replay them on your
virtual protection system and evaluate its behavior. Later, you can reuse your test plan for testing your physical protection system.

Due to the increasing complexity of the electrical grid, training staff has become a priority for many power system operators. An increasing number of utilities, service providers and manufacturers have chosen the OMICRON Academy for their training. The subjects that are being offered by the OMICRON Academy include testing protection systems, power lines, instrument transformers, rotating machines, circuit breakers, and power transformers.

Alex Apostolov of PAC World talks about the changes involved with IEC 61850 and finds that what may look like a threat at first glance, can turn out to be a great chance for the industry.

The electric power industry needs to measure extremely small resistances in the range of milli- or micro ohms. For instance, this needs to be done when measuring contact resistance in circuit breakers or disconnectors, or when measuring the resistance of joints, such as those used in bus bars or very low winding resistance. Measuring resistances as small as these requires what is called a four-wire measurement.

When manufacturers perform ratio and winding resistance tests at the end of the production process or during factory acceptance testing, time is costly and performing such tests efficiently is crucial. When performing diagnostic tests on site, there's also a limited window of time. The CPC 100 and…

When manufacturers perform ratio and winding resistance tests at the end of the production process or during factory acceptance testing, time is costly and performing such tests efficiently is crucial. When performing diagnostic tests on site, there's also a limited window of time. The CPC 100 and the CP SB1 switchbox make ratio and winding resistance measurements efficient by avoiding climbing up and down the transformer repeatedly and reducing connection errors.

Frequency Response Analysis allows the integrity of the active part of a power transformer to be verified without opening it. FRA is the most sensitive method for detecting winding deformation. This method can also reveal short circuits between turns, strands or windings, or open circuits. This method can also identify core faults including mechanical deformation, floating core ground, or shorted core laminates. Tap changer problems, such as bad contacts in the tap selector or the diverter switch, can also be found. OMICRON’s FRANEO 800 is the right choice for reliable FRA measurements on power transformers – for manufacturers, operators and service providers.
