UNIT-I: DISTRIBUTION AUTOMATION AND THE UTILITY SYSTEM
Introduction to Distribution Automation (DA), control system interfaces, control and data
requirements, centralized (Vs) decentralized control, DA System (DAS), DA Hardware, DAS
software.
UNIT-II: DISTRIBUTION AUTOMATION FUNCTIONS
DA capabilities, Automation system computer facilities, management processes, Information
management, system reliability management, system efficiency management, voltage
management, Load management.
UNIT-III: COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS FOR DA
DA communication requirements, Communication reliability, Cost effectiveness, Data rate
Requirements, Two way capability, Ability to communicate during outages and faults, Ease of
operation and maintenance, Conforming to the architecture of data flow
Communication systems used in DA :Distribution line carrier (Power line carrier), Ripple
control, Zero crossing technique, telephone, cable TV, Radio, AM broadcast, FM SCA, VHF
Radio, UHF Radio, Microwave satellite. Fiber optics, Hybrid Communication systems,
Communication systems used in field tests.
UNIT-IV: TECHNICAL BENEFITS
DA benefit categories, Capital deferred savings, Operation and Maintenance savings, Interruption
related savings, Customer related savings, Operational savings, improved operation, Function
benefits, Potential benefits for functions, and function shared benefits, Guidelines for formulation
of estimating equations Parameters required, economic impact areas, Resources for determining
benefits impact on distribution system, integration of benefits into economic evaluation.
UNIT-V: ECONOMIC EVALUATION METHODS
Development and evaluation of alternate plans, Select study area, Select study period, Project
load growth, Develop Alternatives, Calculate operating and maintenance costs, Evaluate
alternatives. Economic comparison of alternate plans, Classification of expenses and capital
expenditures, Comparison of revenue requirements of alternative plans, Book Life and Continuing
plant analysis, Year by year revenue requirement analysis, short term analysis, end of study
adjustment, Break even analysis, Sensitivity analysis computational aids.
