Abstract

Reliable real-time information has become an important factor for
safe delivery of power to the end-users and productivity of the electric
utility and customer pleasure. Communication networks constitute the core of
electrical system control applications in industry. The commercial and
operational demands of electric utilities need a high-performance data communication
network that improves the electrical system performance and provides
possibility of a detailed study to predict failures. Supervisory Control and
Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are widely used in industry for supervisory
control and data acquisition of industrial processes. Users working in various
departments in an electric power company require access to SCADA data.
Therefore, a design of cost-effective and reliable network architecture is a
very important issue. Each network component has a specific address and the
maximum amount of components is restricted for the communication channel and
protocol. In this paper, a power control application is studied by using
wireless technology, and a SCADA system along with the MODBUS protocol which is
one of the most common communication protocols used in industrial environments.
The application is carried out in a power distribution center found at the
electrical distribution system located in Van, Turkey.
