A Review on Substation Monitoring and control technologies and Problems

The paper present review on various substation monitoring and control technologies to convert conventional substations into smart substation, This includes automated monitoring and control using PLC and SCADA system , microcontrollers based monitoring and control system, cloud computing and Intelligent electronics devices(IEDs) monitoring ,control and protection system for substations. Further, this paper also includes the recent advancement in substation automation which includes the new standard proposed by International Electro-technical commission(IEC) which is IEC-61850 for communication system in substations which primarily used to eliminate the problem of interoperability between IEDs supplied by different vendors. It also describe various issues related with various monitoring and control technologies in substation. smart substation is the principal foundation and support of smart grid and hence this paper includes several technologies and issues of converting a conventional substation into smart substation.
