Protection systems play a key role for the safe and reliable operation of today’s electricity power systems. Protection systems should be tested on a regular basis to ensure power system reliability. In this episode, OMICRON protection testing experts Cord Mempel and Christopher Pritchard explain the differences between settings-based and system-based testing approaches and how they can be effectively combined. They also offer their insights on the future of protection testing.
Learn about the differences of these two testing approaches and how they can be used together.
Protection systems play a key role for the safe and reliable operation of today’s electricity power systems. This is relevant for all power system grids in generation, transmission and distribution, industrial, railway, and marine applications. In order to guarantee their reliable operation, protection systems should be tested on a regular basis.
There are two different approaches used for protection testing: one approach is called settings-based protection testing and the other is called system-based protection testing.
In this episode, OMICRON protection testing experts Cord Mempel and Christopher Pritchard discuss the differences between these two testing approaches, their advantages, and how they can be combined in a meaningful way. They also describe the OMICRON solutions available for each testing approach and offer their insights on the future of protection testing.
