Elektro Ljubljana was acutely aware of these strategic issues
facing Network Owners / Operators. It had no system based
on information technologies (IT) for operational maintenance
of protection and automation devices that would cover protection
parameter control, setting control, testing data input and
report management in their company. As a consequence, &
following a strategic business review, a decision was made to
invest in an IT system that would cover the whole portfolio of
power system protection & other secondary systems.
The learning from the implementation of Advanced Data
Management is then developed for new techniques in Protection
test methodology. Stabilization-Operation-Reset (SOR)
testing of digital protection has a major impact on the manner
in which Network Owners / Operators such as Elektro Ljubljana
can develop their Data Management and Network Protection
strategies. Technical and economic experience & learning
points from the implementation are presented, in addition
to proposed next steps.
