OMICRON Testing Solutions For Protection & Measurement Systems

11kV - 33kV HV High Voltage Substations

 

In addition to the classic protection tests, commissioning engineers have to verify correct operation of all status and interlocking elements in a substation. Typical other tasks that have to be performed are checking SCADA annunciations, burden measurement, CT/VT polarity checking, wiring checking, testing logic schemes, for example with event recording, plausibility check for CT/VT with primary injection.

OMICRON's CMC test sets and the unique Test Universe Software are designed to ideally meet the demands of commissioning engineers.

Commissioning engineers are always under time pressure. Equipment availability is paramount to keeping time schedules. Test sets used for commissioning tasks must be extremely reliable and robust. It must be easy to handle, small and light-weight. It must provide perfect "ad hoc" and manual testing means, thus allowing fast reaction to constantly changing testing requirements and trouble-shooting. But also time-saving test automation for standard test procedures is a must in order to keep deadlines in time constrained environments.

OMICRON & PD

A partial discharge, or PD, is a localized dielectric breakdown of a small portion of the electrical insulation. PD can be initiated by voids, cracks, or inclusions within a solid dielectric, at interfaces within solid or liquid dielectrics, in bubbles within liquid dielectrics, or along the boundary between different insulation materials.
