Grid Gateway

The “Application Grid Gateway” supports power distribution grid operators in assessing grid performance. This application allows grid operators to use their existing distribution grid more efficiently, while avoiding unnecessary grid expansion.

Grid Gateway

The “Application Grid Gateway” supports power distribution grid operators in assessing grid performance. This application allows grid operators to use their existing distribution grid more efficiently, while avoiding unnecessary grid expansion. The measurement technology required in the substation for both the transformer and low-voltage outputs can be easily retrofitted.

The measurement values of the medium voltage, transformer, low-voltage outputs, valve positions and temperatures are transmitted to the grid control system via IEC 60870-5-104. Commands and setpoints can also be received and processed. External measurement systems such as short-circuit/ground-fault direction indicators can be easily parametrized via Modbus RTU. The entire parameterization can be stored in a clear manner and, if necessary, added to other stations. The option of simulating measured data makes it possible to commission new substations at the station builder's location from the grid control system without the field side being connected. www.wago.com
