Overview of Integration at PG&E and CPS

Send outage assignments directly to Mobile Data
Terminal (MDT) from NM DMS

Receive assignment status updates from MDT (enroute,
arrived)

Update assignments automatically to MDT as outage
engine rolls outages up

Verify and complete outages from MDT

Display crew login status in NM DMS, as entered from
MDT

Mobile Data R&D Project Scope

Provide capability to view assignment information on geographic
display on mobile laptop

Force outage upstream/downstream from MDT

Show location of other crews on mobile laptop

Show current switch status and tags on mobile laptop

Allow entry of damage assessment on mobile laptop

Allow different geographical viewers to be plugged in:

MDSI Viewer

ESRI Viewer

Mapframe Viewer

Other GIS viewers

ABB Viewer (possible future)
Crew Scheduling R&D

Goal:


Approach:


-

Provide scheduling and supporting data structures to manage
outages and service work
Develop key components that can be used either standalone or
integrated with third party scheduling tools
Benefits:

More efficient utilization of crews

Faster assignment of crews to outages and service work

Network Manager DMS Product Vision

Underlying software architecture will not change
significantly


OMS functionality maturing, but still room for large storm
restoration tools, for example

DMS functionality being added to OMS

Modular architecture allows components to be upgraded,
however
Power system applications continue to evolve
Integration with other IT systems is key

OMS:


AMR Integration:




-
System-wide residential AMR coverage
Distribution Automation Integration:

Standalone telemetry in OMS

SCADA control from OMS
SCADA Integration: (ABB and third party)

Integrated EMS/DMS/OMS

Integration of SCADA one-line diagrams into OMS
Applications:


-

Benefits:

Faster, more accurate passing of assignment to crew

Real-time updates to crew as outages roll up

More accurate outage status provided to customers

More timely outage verification/restoration information passed to OMS
– provides more accurate picture of outage situation to management

More accurate knowledge of crew locations allows outages to be
dispatched more efficiently
Result:

Less time spent on the radio frees up dispatcher to focus on restoration
and switching

Crews spend less time being sent to imprecise locations

Shorter restoration times

Full Residential AMR Coverage

Two-way communication between meter and AMR server

Communication between AMR server and NM-DMS

Benefits:

Faster outage notification

Prevent unnecessary trips to investigate problems at customer side of
meter

Faster outage confirmation and identification of faulted area

Look-ahead prediction logic can call upstream meters to determine
extent of fault

Restoration confirmation allows nested outages to be detected and
crew sent to fix problem while they are in the area

Distribution Automation Integration with OMS

Utilities are adding more remote controlled switches and reclosers
downstream of substation

Telemetered reclosers can provide fault current information to locate
fault

Telemetered fault indicators can help localize the fault further

Remote controlled switches can support sectionalization to remotely
isolate fault and improve customer minutes

Linked with RSA, can have a significant effect on customer minutes

Capacitor control applications also require sending commands to
turn capacitors on/off

Current and voltage measurements can also be used to get more
accurate load flow results

Tighter SCADA Integration

Tighter integration between SCADA/EMS and
DMS/OMS (ABB and third party)

Increased benefits by integration:

Improved communication via common tags and switch orders

Navigation between geographic displays and one-line diagrams

Single login to all systems

Integrated fail-over and server status

Integrated training simulator

State estimator and load flow can be connected

SCADA alarms system can be used by DMS
