Accordingly, this document has been developed to provide information regarding DTL Power and the measures that have been developed and implemented to safeguard its information and information systems from a cyber threat. This document is broken down into several sections that will provide an analysis of DTL Power and the energy sector; as well as the effectiveness of cybersecurity technology/policies in the energy sector, the team’s cyber strategy, and budget.

Our society today is ever more dependent upon electricity in all aspects of life. Keeping the power infrastructure throughout the United States secure and functioning properly should be considered a high priority for both private sector and government. Lacking properly functioning power caused by an outage has widespread impact not just on common conveniences being unavailable but also on critical areas such as emergency services, transportation, water distribution, communication and food production and storage.

The 2003 northeast blackout that saw about 50 million people from the northeast US and southeast Canada lose power for about 2 days at the cost of $6 billion dollars according to JR Minkel (Minkle) and was the biggest blackout in North American history (Minkle). The disaster lead to a report that showed the blackout was caused by a combination of human error and equipment failure. To prevent issues like this in the future a “smart grid” needs to be developed that would monitor and repair itself in the event of problems. Essentially computers and applications would be the first responder when there is an equipment failure on the grid. The problem with this solution is that by placing more of the control of the power grid into the hands of computers and applications, it opens up the grid to cyber-attacks. The economic impact of a total or even partial failure of the power grid is astronomical and makes a very appealing target to those who wish to cause

And by implementing an efficient UPS system, such as the standby generators that are available in a modular design, you can not only protect your company but also ensure that you are not being wasteful in the process.

A power system is always in a state of disturbance that may lead to instability in the system. The consequences of a major power supply interruption can prove to be so disastrous, that every effort must be made to reduce the impact of such a disturbance. The process of determining the steadiness of the power system following any upset is known as security assessment. In particular, MW security assessment is a process to evaluate the security of the power system following a disturbance. It is done considering the loading conditions in respect of MW power flow on the lines. Each line has a capacity to carry MW power up to transmission line design limits beyond which the lines may trip due to overloading. In this paper MW security assessment has

The electrical system is managed by the public-utilities company of the local area. If a tornado sufficiently damaged this entity to prevent the consistent delivery of electricity to the call center, there may be a disruption to the ability to make and receive calls as well as process data. The call center employs backup power generators in such an instance, but these generators provide eight hours of power. In natural disasters, it is not unlikely that utilities companies will be able to restore service within weeks.

The power system is installed within 5 electrical substations with emergency equipment, generators, medium voltage panels and transformers.This installation makes the power distribution to Petrobras Headquarters UOBS, which currently controls its offshore operation units (oil platform).The power system is divided into the following subsystems:

PCM600 IEC 61850 is based on the same concept for Relion protection and control IED, to

Several National Guard and Reserve Centers operate in extremely old structures and with today’s highly technical engineering equipment running them could become hazardous. With inadequate fire protection systems to eliminate the potential of a fire hazard the potentially of a serious event occurring is possible. One of the more dangerous problems in older structures is an outdated electrical system that poses the risk of fires and/or electrocution. By means of old wiring standards and the breakdown of wire insulation, electrical hazards exist. The lack of wire insulation, incomplete circuit devices, mislabeled circuits components, current conductivity, overhead lines and proper grounding, personal protection must be closely watched for

Continued presence of high-resistance grounding equipment prevents any excessive transient overvoltage excursions during the fault clearing period. The bus is low resistance grounded and the current here, during the fault, is limited to a value (400A) that will minimize burning damage at the point of fault, yet allowing sufficient current to flow for operation of the ground fault relays.

If you are a business owner, we take care of a vast array of electrical projects. Firstly, we are available for emergency repair and service, which is crucial to operations.

The aim of this project is to construct a single phasing monitor and prevention system using 8bit microcontroller. Anti-single phasing relays or single phasing preventer are required for critical

Abstract: A hybrid generation is a part of large power system in which number of sources usually attached to a power electronic converter and loads are clustered can operate independent of the main power system. The protection scheme is crucial against faults based on traditional over current protection since there are adequate problems due to fault currents in the mode of operation. This paper adopts a new approach for detection, discrimination of the faults for multi terminal transmission line protection in presence of hybrid generation. Transient current based protection scheme is developed with discrete wavelet transform. Fault indices of all phase currents at all terminals are obtained by analyzing the detail coefficients of current signals using bior 1.5 mother wavelet. This scheme is tested for different types of faults and is found effective for detection and discrimination of fault with various fault inception angle and fault impedance.
