Protection - Synergi Electric

Advanced modelling environment for over-current protective devices

Protection - over-current protective devices

The Synergi Electric Protection software module provides the most advanced modelling environment for over-current protective devices. Engineers can quickly evaluate and manage extensive and complex protection schemes for hundreds or thousands of radial distribution feeders. The Protection application can be run as a Synergi module or as a standalone protection coordination tool.

What you get

• Engineering software for distribution utility protection, planning, operations and reliability
• Powerful tools and applications for coordination and evaluation of system performance
• Models for breakers, reclosers, fuses, and other devices are core to the detailed Synergi Electric distribution model for contingency, reliability, arc-flashover, and other analysis
• A comprehensive analysis tool to evaluate device coordination on a large scale
• Switching in model based on normal or emergency switch plans, real-time updates from a SCADA system, the result of an engineering analysis or from manual switching
  

Key benefits of the Protection software module

• Control and response curves for various device models on standard log-log graphs with plotted devices directly from the model, not a curve list – this allows you to evaluate many facets of protection equipment performance
• Rule base is extensive with over 80 validation criteria – can be extended with new rules upon request
• Detailed models:
  - Breakers and reclosers
  - Electronic, electromechanical, hydraulic relays
  - Expulsion and current limiting fuses
  - Sectionalizers
  - Transformer connections and current shifting
  - Transformer inrush, and damage
  - Conductor damage & flash-over energy
