ZIV´s 25-year experience contributed to the successful conclusion of this project. The protection, control and substation automation system was designed to meet and exceed project requirements in line with client, wind turbine manufacturer and DNO specifications – and always considering the technical guidance in the G59 specification.

ZIV also provided an automation system for Western Power Distribution’s soft inter-tripping system (SIS), which provides online and detailed knowledge of the entire medium and low-voltage grid, from home users to secondary substations.

It consists of smart cabinet containing a USP 020 RTU and a BCC battery charger. The purpose of the SIS is to provide both remote (from Scada) and automatic (local) control of a generating unit based on the voltage conditions of the medium-voltage network, monitored by a centralised system.

ZIV is a technological leader in protection, control, communication and metering technologies that contributes to the development of sustainable networks, with integrated solutions for metering, distribution automation, substation automation and telecommunications.
