Scada
 Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition
SCADA is the system responsible for gathering,
processing, and displaying information about the
state of a monitored system. From a SCADA control
center, operators and application programs can
oversee and change the operating state of monitored
devices.

Data Processing
 The major function of the data processing module is to
place data from RTUs into the database.

status changes
Retrieved values
converted to
engineering units
and placed in
database.
Points then checked Engineering value

“normal state”
operational limits
and rate of change
limits.

Data types
 SCADA processes and stores three different types of
data:
 analog,
 status, and
 count data.
NLDC
11
Analog Data
 Analogs are numeric values representing the state of
variable-state devices, such as power lines,
transformers etc
 In the monitored system a physical variable is usually
measured by a transducer, and the output of the
transducer is passed through an analog-to-digital
(A/D) converter in the RTU .
NLDC
12
Transducer
 linear Conversion
NLDC
13
Status Data
 Status values represent the state of devices, such as
circuit breakers, tap changers, LOV,BPT
NLDC
14
Digital Data
Potential free contacts are used to transfer switch position to
control centre.
NLDC
15
Data flow from RTU  RLDC  NLDC
NLDC
16
Data polling method
 Analogs are defined as periodic/Cyclic data .
 The periodicity varies from 10 seconds to 15 seconds
depending upon the quantity of data and available
bandwidth .
 Digital input state changes are to be reported
spontaneously .
 The Digital input data have higher priority than
Analog values.
NLDC

Data Flow
NLDC
18
Supervisory Control
 In Scada systems control actions are performed by
RTU or PLC.
 operator of the control room can override or adjust
normal PLC (RTU) controls

ALARMS
 ANALOG
 DIGITAL
NLDC
21
Alarms-analogs
 Normal limit-Range of limits which device is considers
to be operating normally
 Reasonability Limit-range of values that SCADA uses
to determine whether the value retrieved for the
analog is realistic.
 Forbidden Limit-Range of values that SCADA
considers violated when the analog point fall within
that range
 Dead band Limits-On a pair of low or high limits if it is
violated the value must rise above the limit by at least
the dead band amount before the SCADA consider s
the analog to be back within normal limits .
NLDC

• Priority 3 -Protection trips and substation alarms
• Priority 4 -Alarms relevant to RTU’s, communication lines, and
alarms of “unreasonable” category

Sequence Of Events
 Sequence of events provides milli secs accurate
time of status changes for devices monitored by
Remote Terminal Units .
 The RTU clock is synchronized periodically by the
control center clock .
 Reading its internal clock when a SOE status
point changes state .
 Time stamped digital data stored in RTU buffer
and transferred as file or Digital data with time
stamped is transferred for SOE
NLDC
32
Historical DATA Recording
 Historical Data Recording (HDR) function allows you
to preserve a time series of any set of analog, status,
and accumulator measurements .

HDR functions




Saves the SCADA measurements in disk files called Historical
files.
Keeps track of the Historical files that have been created and
allows you to delete them.
The Database Reconstruction functions allow you to reconstruct
or create a Data History listing from the data in the Historical
files.
The reconstructed database can be moved to the network
database for use by other applications.

Trend Displays
 Real Time Trend Display


Digital, analog or counter value can be viewed
simultaneously in different displays.
The information is usually sampled cyclically, stored in
memory on a circular buffer and plotted on a window against
time.
 Historical Trend Displays



Tags are free formatted text, which provide critical
information to next shift operator .
Tags can be provided over digital, analog and counters datapoints.
Operators can insert, edit or delete any number of tags, if
they have privileges to do so.
Some operators may only be allowed to view tags.
These operations can be done from graphic displays by
selecting a dynamic object or from a system list of entities.
