SCADA Based Smart Panel

SCADA BASED SMART PANEL FOR BACKUP POWER SUPPLY AT BHARAT NIRMAN RAJEEV GANDHI SEVA KENDRA AT PANCHAYAT LEVEL IN RAJASTHAN

The government of Rajasthan has established network connectivity to Government Departments, and expand the network up to 9892 Gram Panchayats, 19 other offices at district & block level offices, 33 District Head Quarter and 1 State Head Quarter in Rajasthan to cater voice, video and data services under various categories of G2G, G2B and G2C services. RajNET provided as the platform to provide network connectivity through multimode (i.e. VSAT and TERRESTRIAL) of connectivity throughout Rajasthan state. Centralized integrated network operating center (CINOC) for monitoring of multimode connectivity in the state is established.

Under RajNET, expansion of connectivity is established through VSAT upto Gram Panchayats. DOIT&C, on the behalf of GoR, plans to install the smart panels at every Bharat Nirman Rajeev Gandhi Seva Kendra to monitor the status of protection and control devices, measure the energy consumption, control the changeover and generate notifications for undesired events, locally from the individual location via inbuilt web pages and from a centralized SCADA. At present, the power supply to computer points is through Nigam supply (Electricity Board) installed by GVPR Department and through Solar UPS installed by REIL. But that depends on the users, which supply they want to use for powering up the Bharat Nirman Rajeev Gandhi Seva Kendra.

Project Objectives

Following things are desired from the integration of the smart panel into the electrical distribution network and the existing VSAT network of the site: -

  • Installing an automatic changeover system between electricity board supply and solar supply, with a priority for the solar supply, so as to make use of green energy. Solar supply shall only be used to power up the computers as well as light and fan of emitra center.
  • Lighting and other loads shall be supplied via electricity board supply.
  • Monitoring the status of changeover and the incomer MCBs.
  • Controlling the changeover state.
  • Measuring the kWH consumption from the solar and electricity board supply.
  • Measuring the battery charge status from the solar UPS through RS232 Port to RS485 converter and associated cable for which mapping will be provided.
  • Monitoring, measurement and control for the parameters (as per defined specifications) shall be made available via inbuilt web pages, inside the smart panel architecture, for individual sites and at the NOC Jaipur via a SCADA
