Monitor Electric specialists have implemented a comprehensive set of updates for working with Temporary Load Shedding Schedules (TLSS), aimed at reducing dispatcher time expenditure during schedule entry, minimising the risk of errors, and increasing interaction efficiency with the system.
TLSS entry is one of the critical operations in power system management, requiring hi...
The absence of request receipt confirmation and an up-to-date processing status had a destabilising effect on the work of personnel responsible for work execution. In conditions of insufficient transparency for data synchronisation, employees were forced to duplicate requests through informal communication channels, which violated document flow regulations. Manual transfer of intervals from the...
The structure of unified power systems requires dispatch centres to maintain the highest level of synchronisation in generating source data for calculations. Verification of control measurements, historically tied to a single hour, created «blind spots» when analysing the dynamics of key parameters such as inter-system power flows or voltage levels at balance ownership boundaries. This limitati...
The process of preparing energy consumption reports has long remained a bottleneck in the work of enterprise analytical services. The need for manual export of data arrays with subsequent processing in third-party applications created a significant operational burden. This approach not only increased the time required for closing reporting periods but also served as a source of systematic error...
Monitor Electric specialists are working on improving algorithms for the automatic generation of text for workplace preparation measures in electrical installations. The change will affect persons responsible for issuing work permits and is aimed at eliminating situations of ambiguous interpretation of instructions.
Work performed in the electrical network, such as isolating sectio...
Analysis of electrical network diagrams is a routine but essential task when preparing switching operations, determining power supply sources, identifying connections with consumers or transformer substations, and other operations. Operational dispatch personnel frequently encounter the need to repeatedly perform network tracing during their shifts when carrying out these tasks. The repetitive ...
Having studied the manual operations existing at our clients' sites, we decided to implement in the upcoming CK-11 update a tool for automatic generation of an operational summary of emergency outages in 6–20 kV networks. The new functionality is intended for personnel responsible for analysing the causes and duration of power supply disruptions to consumers.
On a daily basis, ...
Polling installed metering devices from different manufacturers, where modern intelligent devices coexist with outdated controllers, traditionally creates operational costs. Incompatibility of communication protocols forces the use of individual software gateways or hardware signal converters. Each such solution requires separate development, configuration, and subsequent maintenance, increasin...
Regime analysis of requests is a critical functional capability of the outage request management system, enabling automated verification of the permissibility of work to be performed under submitted requests, optimal planning of combined work in the electrical network, and generation of a ready switching plan for the dispatcher, where the switching sequence and regime permissibility analysis, t...
Having conducted research aimed at studying the usability of displaying operational information on SCADA mimic diagrams, Monitor Electric specialists concluded that the simultaneous display of visual elements for recorded equipment defects, approved equipment outage requests, as well as active work permits and instructions, often complicates diagram analysis. The simultaneous presence of a larg...
A new log has become available as part of Monitor Electric's electronic document management system, providing automation for work with access permits and reflecting the strategic course towards replacing paper media with digital solutions.
For enterprises just beginning their transition to digital document management, the electronic access permit log can serve as a starting poi...
In the past quarter, we carried out substantial work on the development of the calculation and analytical applications included in CK-11. One of the significant improvements affected the State Estimation module, designed to determine the most probable electrical regime of the power system that most accurately corresponds to a set of parameters measured at a specific point in time and satisfies ...
