We are very excited to introduce our Integrated On-line Condition
Monitoring for Asset Management, which is the latest software
application for the Smart Substation migration initiative.
This application utilizes the DAPserver™
platform to integrate multi-vendor sensors
and IED, provide a station level consolidated view and analytics
of your critical substation assets health condition, allows for
remote access to view and retrieve the substation information
in a secure manner.
The capability of this application will greatly benefit the utilities
in the following:
1. Alternative data path to the
substation information without overloading the existing SCADA
system.
2. Secure remote access and
visibility to substation sensors and apparatus eliminates unnecessary
maintenance
trips to the substations
3. Enables predictive condition
based maintenance instead of time or scheduled based maintenance.
4. Act as a data source to
enterprise level data historian and applications to optimize
asset utilization,
manage capital expenditure
and reduce operating expense.

Integrated
On-line Condition Monitoring for Asset Management
The electric power
utility industry is one of the industries that has the largest
infrastructure. From generation to transmission and distribution
network, the power grid comprised of a vast variety of assets.
The operation, maintenance and management of asset is absolutely
critical to utility business management and power grid operation.
However, it has always been challenging to manage power system
assets due to the variety of equipment, technologies and the wide
spread geographic location. The implementation of integrated on-line
condition monitoring of power system equipment is an essential
step toward effective asset management.
Equipment monitoring
and diagnostic technologies have been available for some time.
Many utilities implement various sensing technologies and devices
to gather data and information to improve equipment operation
and maintenance. However, scattered data from various sensors
and islands of systems makes it impractical to utilize the data.
By integrating sensors and unifying data, integrated on-line condition
monitoring systems can greatly enhance the operation, maintenance,
planning, and management of power system equipment
Integrated on-line
condition monitoring allows utilities to take advantage of various
sensing technologies as deemed fit. The real-time data can greatly
enhance the efficiency of equipment operation and utilization,
while the historical data can facilitate equipment diagnostic,
maintenance and service scheduling, as well as planning for CapEx
and OpEx.

Events
Western Power Delivery Automation Conference in Spokane,
WA April 13-15, 2010
ASAT participated in the annual
WPDAC where electric power utilities, technology and serviceproviders
gathered to share experience related to substation and feeder
automation, data communication,
cyber security, power system stability and other applications.
In this conference, ASAT
also demonstrated how its
DAPserver™ technologies can be utilized to meet
these application
needs and address Smart Grid

2010
IEEE PES Transmission and Distribution Conference and Exposition
in
New Orleans, LA April 19-22, 2010
Following
the product launch of DAPgateway™ for IEC-81850 at
DistribuTECH 2010, ASAT showcased the
DAPgateway™ at the 2010 IEEE PES Transmission
and Distribution Conference and Exposition in New
Orleans. Integrating IEC-61850 IEDs from major manufacturers
such as ABB, Areva, GE and SEL,
the DAPgateway™ demonstrated its capability in facilitating
a true multi-vendor IEC-61850 based
substation automation system. The DAPgateway™
enables power system operators to integrate
both legacy IEDS and IEC-61850 IEDs to a single system. For more
