Powerline Communications Technology (PLC):
Enabling Secure, Reliable, Cost-Effective Intra-Substation Communication
26 August, 2009 - 2:00 PM Eastern; 11:00 am Pacific
For numerous utilities, implementing advanced substation monitoring forms a key element in the drive to improve reliability. The ability to access real-time data about their equipment, especially condition-based maintenance systems, is an important factor in enhancing asset management decision-making. Powerline communications (PLC) technology is proving itself as a viable alternative to both fiber and wireless . with fiber often exceeding the cost of the monitoring hardware itself, and wireless posing potential security issues. PLC is a cost-effective, rapidly-deployed, highly reliable and secure communications network technology that enables proactive, real-time data monitoring over existing substation infrastructure.
This free, 60+ minute educational Webinar will provide an essential guide to the implementation of PLC technology for substation applications from industry professionals including engineers from Dynamic Ratings and SDG&E. The Webinar will cover how PLC differs from other communication platforms, examples of successful substation implementations, and how PLC delivers enhanced security, speed and Quality of Service.
Webinar topics will also cover:
- Substation challenges in capturing, monitoring, and measuring data, particularly between the control house and the IEDs
- Comparison of wireless, BPL, PLC and other communication technologies
- How PLC addresses the stringent demands of the substation environment
- PLC deployment scenarios
- Case studies using PLC technology
