Intelligent Restoration

Operator notification and acknowledgement provides the means that allow the dispatcher to restart the loads. Armed with Switching Management, loads can be restarted step-by-step or in one action. 

Where the restarting is determined to be invalid or unsafe, ETAP automatically inhibits the restart and provides the system operator with an indication that the load cannot be started.

Restoration qualification feature evaluates the ability to restore loads by monitoring and comparing the following parameters:

• System frequency
• Available spinning reserve
• Starting voltages
• Operating voltages
• User-defined logic
• Alternate source detection
• System configuration status
• Interlock & switching sequence logics

Minimize System Maintenance

A key feature of Intelligent Load Shedding is the ability to update and customize the load shedding logic without performing any ILS Controller re-programming. Changing load priorities, adding / removing loads from the system, and optimizing logic are some examples of actions that do not require reprogramming of the ILS Controller.
