Follow on Google News | Electrocon International to Host CAPE Protection Software Technical Seminar in Lima, PeruStep-by-step use of CAPE software to improve management and analysis of network protection
By: Electrocon International Incorporated The seminar will focus on a number of specific protection areas including: • Short Circuit Calculations • Load Flow Analysis • Graphical Tools for Relay Coordination • Coordination Checking with Stepped-Events Analyses • Complex Fault Simulations • Quick Setup of Teleprotection Schemes • Modeling Detailed Bus Structures • Transmission Line Modeling • Automated Sensitivity Checking and Coordination Reviews • Combined Transient Stability & Protection System Simulation • Automated Relay Setting Calculations • Fault Analysis Playback Tools • Preparing State Simulation Files for End-to-End Testing http://www.electrocon.com/ “Utilities, system operators and engineering firms are placing more importance on automation of power system protection for the electrical grid,” stated Hugo Dávila, Professional Engineer and Regional Manager for POWER-TECH, SA. “Utilizing automated protection software such as CAPE is becoming the standard for modern protection engineers.” CAPE software supports the system protection function within electric power utilities. CAPE is used by major utilities in more than 50 countries on six continents worldwide because of its serious tools for detailed modeling that help engineers manage voluminous and complex network data, uncover potential problems, and examine alternative solutions. “We are excited at the growth in Latin America for protection software,” remarked Paul F. McGuire, EE, MSEE, PE and President of Electrocon International. “We have a strong base of CAPE users in Peru including EnerSur, Red de Energía del Perú, Red Eléctrica del Sur S.A. and the Universidad Nacional de Ingenieria that realize the importance of implementing a protection system utilizing software with detailed models of their networks rather than using more generic modeling found in some solutions.” CAPE (Computer-Aided Protection Engineering) • Detailed modeling capabilities based on a single open source database. • Support for analysis and simulation to solve data management issues, uncover potential network and protective device problems, and evaluate alternatives. • Support for networks of any size. • Support for setting complex modern digital relays • Support for relay coordination functions and wide-area studies. • Ability to integrate with conventional transient stability programs to allow the kind of evaluation of wide-area control needed to avoid cascading outages and blackouts. CAPE handles networks of any size, large or small. CAPE users have systems ranging from under 100 buses to over 30,000 buses. Several have protection systems with 20,000 to 50,000 relays. Simulating short circuits and showing the responses of protective devices With CAPE, you use a mouse to click and drag elements on a one-line diagram, and to open breakers, apply faults, and simulate protective system responses. Conducting automated fault studies and wide area coordination reviews, developing incisive custom reports, and identifying fault locations, all become practical, efficient activities that add value to the organization. More detail gives you more realistic results CAPE’s ability to handle rich detail allows users to create models accurate enough to realistically predict likely misoperations. CAPE handles model-specific comparator equations, phase and fault selection logic, manufacturer- Get the most from your data CAPE is built upon a true relational database, which is included with CAPE software. CAPE’s underlying DBMS is fully ODBC- and SQL-compliant; For more information about CAPE or Electrocon services, visit us on the web at http://www.electrocon.com or call +1 734-761-8612 extension 202 or email eii@electrocon.com.
