OPTIMISED INTERACTION WITH TEMPORARY LOAD SHEDDING SCHEDULES
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 high precision and responsiveness. Traditionally, it involves three variables: time, data accuracy, and human resources. The need for verbal task assignment for manual switching execution, recalculation of capacities taking into account seasonal coefficients, and verification of communication with dispatch centres all consume valuable minutes in critically important situations.
The new improvements eliminate a number of operational friction points that previously slowed dispatcher workflow when working with TLSS:
− Remote initiation for manual operations.
For connecting a feeder with the «Manual Entry» control type, the dispatcher now issues a command through the TLSS interface. The system automatically adjusts the execution time, simplifying personnel coordination during work execution.
− Automatic selection of seasonal coefficients.
Seasonal coefficients by region are now available in the context menu. The algorithm autonomously determines the value based on the hierarchy, eliminating the need for manual adjustment. In the absence of local data, the global coefficient defined for the organisation is applied.
− Enhanced analytics and reporting accuracy.
A function for exporting substation CCS codes has been introduced, along with an expanded data set when exporting reports in Excel format. This increases the informativeness of data transmitted to the Regional Dispatch Office, facilitating subsequent analysis.
− Improved interface.
Dispatchers can now monitor the communication status with the Regional Dispatch Office in real time. Substation auto-selection now supports search, filtering, and alphabetical sorting — all for quick and convenient selection of objects.
The result is not merely functional and interface improvements, but another step towards more efficient and accurate power system management. The system is becoming not just a tool but an active dispatcher assistant, helping to act faster within regulatory frameworks while bypassing routine operations.
