KEY FACTS AND FEATURES
of Protective Relays and IED Management
Setting and Configuration Management
Based on detailed, manufacturer specific data models at individual parameter levels.
Setting and Configuration Lifecycle
Protective Relays & IED Management supports data management throughout setting and configuration lifecycle from the time of the initial request for their change, through development, approval and commissioning process, to its final verification.
Setting Workflow Management (SWM)
Allows you to administer all activities related to relay settings by utilizing a three-tiered structure, System Change Notification (i.e. description of any event or situation that may result in the modification of one or more relay settings), Global Setting Requests (affecting several physical relays), and Relay Setting Requests (affecting one single physical relay). Each level has its own workflow – the workflow for Global Setting Request (GSR) is fully customizable. (Note: This section applies to any configurable item, not just relays.)
Wide Area Protection Coordination (WAPC) study
Protective relay settings information is exchanged with third party settings calculation tools together with a network model. This is the base and precondition for any Wide Area Protection Coordination (WAPC) study. Resulting in a settings change request from the WAPC study that can be sent back to IPS maintenance management process and distributed to protection maintenance teams for their commissioning.
Master Library
The IPS library of complex data models represents the world’s largest protection and IED master type library. It is constantly growing and delivered to all IPS customers.
