RW1800 is a new-generation substation automation system which is suitable for substation automation, large-scale factory monitoring, mini SCADA and other field requirements. It is a dispersed, hierarchical and distributed object-oriented system, in which the IEDs and computers are substituted for lots of devices with single function such as relays, meters, indicators, automation devices and panels. Local Area Network (LAN) is also substituted for plentiful cables. The protection relays in the system are relatively independent to improve the operation reliability substation and reduce the maintenance work.
RW1800 system can meet the requirement for substation automation put forward in CIGRE, that is, telecontrol function(telesignal, telemeter, telecontrol, etc.), automatic control function(Voltage and Reactive Power Control, Load-shedding, Static Reactive Power Compensator Control, etc.), metering function, protection relay function, function for protection relay(fault record, fault location, fault line selection), interface function(with microprocessor anti-maloperation, power supply, meters, GPS, etc.), system function(communication with station and local SCADA, etc.).
