The power distribution network in the Yangjiapin
Power Supply Bureau is provided with 17 power stations, 13 110kv power stations, 90 10kv switching stations and 347 10kv feeders at present. Within the jurisdiction area, there are 252,160 electricity users, including 1,710 large users and 250,450 small users. With the area of only 194.3 square kilometers, the jurisdiction area belongs to typical urban power supply network..
The power distribution automation project to be
implemented this time includes 54 1OKV feeders, 42
switching stations, 39 ring net cabinets and branch boxes and 7 IIOKV power stations, which satisfies the requirements of power distribution automation and management automation within the range of lOkV supply area in the Yangjiaping Power Supply Bureau. The project began to be constructed in 2003 and all the construction tasks were completed in December 2005.
The power network in Yangjiaping Power Supply Bureau
belongs to typical urban power supply network, with the
current implementation mode of feeder automation.
The power distribution automatic system in the
Yangjiaping Power Supply Bureau uses hierarchical structure
and master station - substation layer - power distribution
terminal structure including terminal layer, substation layer,
communication layer and master station layer and gradually
realizes the functions such as power station looped network,
looped network in residential area and the SCADA, FA, GIS
and power distribution management of user engineering, etc.
Terminal layer
Terminal layer finishes the data acquisition of switch and
enforces the control command of corresponding equipment.
This system provides rich data for the data statistics and
analysis of master station by using NARI DAT-1 series FTU
as acquisition module.
Substation layer
Substation layer is in charge of collecting data from
terminal layer and transmits data to master station layer, and at
the same time, transmits the command sent by master station
layer to terminal layer.
Communication layer
Communication layer is in charge of finishing the
connection of acquisition terminal with substation and
distribution master station system. All the acquisition modules are connected to optical fiber backbone network via optical Modem by RS485 mode, finally converged into substation, and then delivered to master station by network mode.
When some system components fall into failure and the
operation constraints are violated, the HALLSS model
consisting of local generation rescheduling, local Var
compensators adjustment and local load curtailment is carried
out. In these control actions, the following heuristic rules are
used.

The switchgear type of switching station mainly uses
vacuum breaker cabinet and load switchgear. Switching
station generally uses 2-in 10-out. The inlet switch of
switching station can be provided with load switch. The outlet switch of switching station can be provided with load switch or breaker, which can be determined according to the property of outlet.
Control features
The outlet fault in switching station is removed by the
protection action of starting aside outlet breaker. The power
distribution terminal DTU of switching station sends fault
information to power distribution master station. After
identifying fault point, power distribution master station
realizes the isolation and recovery of fault by controlling DTU. If load switch is installed on the inlet of switching station (ring net cabinet, branch box), the fault in switching station (ring net cabinet, branch box) is removed by the power station protection action of starting aside outlet breaker and then isolated and recovered by DTU.
