ASSURING OPTIMAL COMMUNICATION SERVICES FOR MULTIPLE SUBSTATION APPLICATIONS In many modern substations, multiple Local Area Networks are being gradually deployed covering devices and communications in separate domains : I/V measurements and breaker commands, condition monitoring data, bay-level protection and control, SCADA and substation-level control, engineering station, and also video surveillance, voice and access control. Operation & maintenance support (voice, data & video) Site surveillance & Facility management Assets & monitoring e-terrasentinel allows the observation of each domain as a separate network plane, even if some common network devices and connections are used. Substation Bus Quality of service can be monitored in separate domains and network planes and forwarded to local and remote platforms and workstations. Substation Process Bus Text here.69 Operational staff will not be flooded with unnecessary details on faulty infrastructure, rather they receive comprehensive information on the consequences. Service dashboards indicate an overall performance for each user domain. Substation control Scada RTU Fault recorder Router/Firewall may be part of the user system Substation LAN aggregation device Secure remote access to substation automation Station Bay Control MU IP Phones, PC, WiFi base Comms devices (SNMP) Cameras, monitoring device, etc. PR PMU Real-time data transfer (Trip signals, measurements, …) WAP&C (Synchrophasors) Router/Firewall may be part of the network infrastructure O&M Voice & Data Telecom management Monitoring & surveillance LAN Switch Router/Firewall Te ne elecom etwork TELECOM PRODUCT SOLUTIONS e-terrasentinel-S MERGING NETWORK AND ASSET MANAGEMENT An end-to-end, multi-layer, fault management platform for telecom infrastructure and services in the power utility to: Consolidate communication network alarms and events for real-time visibility and control Create customized views by functional layer, application, geography or technology domain Generate user service dashboards providing service metrics and performance indicators (e.g. delay, packet loss, etc.) Monitor the quality of service for communication services Enable a unified approach to operation and maintenance tasks and service management for communication and related assets in the operational environment Initiate, track and close incident records associated to faulty assets and services and assign ownership to relevant actors Allow possible integration into Alstom maintenance service contracts KEY FEATURES e-terrasentinel Service Dashboard providing service interruption and availibility data for particular group of network applications Functional layer views for better visualisation Merged approach to infrastructure and service Functional overlay for root cause analysis QoS dashboards for each class of service Two examples of e-terrasentinel functional maps showing physical switch and VLAN networks TELECOM PRODUCT SOLUTIONS e-terrasentinel-S TECHNICAL DATA GRID/BANRE//EN/12.2014/FRA/2594 © ALSTOM 2014.
