Substation Automation Strategies for the Future
Wednesday, January 28, 2015
Ray Wright
NovaTech
About the Topic
New technologies and economic factors are driving new designs into Substation Automation.
Future automation will include:
- "Box Consolidation" (fewer boxes performing more functions)
- Obtaining Data from IEDs Instead of from Hard-Wired I/O
- Expansion of Ethernet
- IEDs with Built-in Switches
- Time Synchronization over Ethernet
- DNP3 "Secure Authentication"
- IEC 61850
- Web-Based SCADA Instead of PC-Based SCADA
- Protection using 61850 Process Bus
Each of the items above will be reviewed in this one-hour presentation.
About the Speaker
Ray Wright has marketed and managed automation products and systems
for the past 33 years, including industrial robotics with Unimation
('81-85), Programmable Controllers at Modicon ('87-'97), Protective
relays at ABB ('97-02) and substation automation and process
automation at NovaTech ('02 to present). During this time, Ray has
developed new approaches to automation problems, including suites of
new products for substation automation while at Modicon, ABB and
NovaTech.
Ray's education includes a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical
Engineering from General Motors Institute (1978) and a Masters of
Administrative Science from Johns Hopkins University (1985).
