To optimise your MV distribution,

in terms of availability, safety,
profitability. . .

Te l e c o n t rol interfaces integrated in network points and MV/LV substations
allow the network operator to:

■

know the status of MV equipment,

■

monitor the flow of fault current in the MV network,

■

operate one or more MV direction feeders,

to quickly limit the effects of faults on the MV network and maintain the
power supply to a maximum number of consumers.

The telecontrol interfaces should be simple to install and easy to operate.
Activated when incidents occur in MV network, they must have
f i e l d - p roven reliability and availability.

In order for a network
to be operated
re m o t e l y,
the MV switchgear
must be equipped
with telecontrol
i n t e rf a c e .

Upgrading MV network by
addition of telecontrol points

Talus 200:

MV telecontrol interface unit

Talus 200
MV telecontrol interface designed as a multifunction unit for
MV switchgear integration in a MV network telecontrol system.

Power supply

Talus 200 comprises
a backed up power
supply and guarantees
continuity of serv i c e
for several hours in
case of voltage loss
on the MV network.

■

It supplies power to:

■

the remote

monitoring and control
i n t e rf a c e

■

the MV switchgear

motor mechanisms

■

remote transmission

equipment.

■

Without maintenance:

The power supplies
u n d e rgo a large
number of self-tests
to guarantee their
a v a i l a b i l i t y.

Talus 200:

much more than just a RTU,
a multifunction unit

R e a dy to plug

Specially designed
for MV electrical
networks and following
f a c t o ry test.

■

The installation of

Talus 200 is made
easy by the use of:

■

kits for switchgear

connection and
m e a s u rement
acquisition

■

polarized connectors

■

split sensors for

c u rrent measure m e n t .

MV sw i t ch gear
i n t e r f a c e

■

Talus 200 is

designed to be
connected directly
to the MV switchgear
without requiring a
special convert e r.

■

Talus 200 has

u n d e rgone severe
MV electrical stress

Communication
with the remote
control centre

Talus 200 can be
included in both
Milenium contro l
c e n t re offers and
existing contro l
c e n t re s .
Talus 200 is designed
to be easily adapted
for diff e rent pro t o c o l s
and remote transmis-
sion media.

■

The protocols are

managed by a special
module and all
changes are made
without affecting the
other functions.

■

Connection to the

communication net-
work is established by
integration, in the
cabinet, of a modem
qualified for use with
the re q u i red network:
radio, telephone,
dedicated line, optical
f i b re. . .).

It is also possible to
a c q u i re “fault curre n t
detection” via extern a l
s y s t e m s .

Local control

A simple front plate
for :

■

display of the main

data (without opening
the case)

■

c o n t rol of the

MV switchgear

■

selection of

the operating mode
( l o c a l / re m o t e )

■

checking of the

fault current detection

A personal computer
is used locally for:

MV telecontrol interface:

for the success of
your telecontrol solutions

Talus 200:

o ffers you clear advantages

■

Talus 200 is designed to make work easier for Utilities during

the installation, operation and maintenance phases.

■

Talus 200, a multifunctional unit specially designed for MV electrical

networks, delivered ready to plug, provides you with guaranteed

■

simplified installation and operation

■

continuity of service to operate your switchgear.

Much more than a
simple RTU used for
remote monitoring
and control of a
network point or
M V / LV substation,
Talus 200 unit
handles, on its own,
all the functions
re q u i red to operate
MV networks.
