Digital substations | Statnett

Synaptec instrumented six bays of Statnett’s Furuset transmission substation to deliver a centralised and digitalised busbar protection scheme, and provided new asset condition monitoring data, through one centralised system. This achieved several goals for Statnett, including demonstrating IEC 61850 device interoperability, reducing scheduled outage times for protection hardware upgrades from weeks to days, eliminating the need for merging units and copper wiring, and generating new digital twin data to automate future condition monitoring approaches.

Equipment installed: DES Interrogator, Secondary Connected Module for Current, Passive Strain Sensor, and Passive Temperature Sensor | Communication protocol: IEC 61850-9-2 | Date of commissioning: 2019
