Casablanca Power, Water and Effluent Dispatch, LYDEC – Morocco |
The implementation of advanced, combined SCADA system based on the most recent Efacec development ScateX+ DMS for the LYDEC Dispatch was concluded. This Dispatch located in Casablanca controls and supervises the water, effluent and power distribution networks in the capital of Morocco and its neighborhood.
The central system integrates more than 560 remote terminal units (RTU) from third parties, placed throughout the networks, namely at distribution substations, switching stations, water and effluent treatment stations. Through means of standard communication protocols, such as IEC 60870-5-101 and Modbus, these RTU provide the dispatch with data necessary to effective and precise network management and operation. At the lowest level of the network all RTU and IED use generally available communication medium, such as GSM, PSTN, Radio, dedicated line.

The supplied system is based on technology integrally developed by Efacec, namely the ScateX+ DMS solution for the Control Centres.
The SCADA/ DMS advanced functions included in the system are:
- Topology Processor
- Quality of Service (QoS)
- CB Outage Reports
- Operator Training Simulator
- GIS Interface
- User Mimics
- System Mimics
- System Configuration
- Areas of Responsibility
- Video Wall Interface
This important reference reinforces Efacec presence in Maghreb Region, in the area of distribution network management and automation, where Efacec detains other important references of the SCADA/DMS systems, namely in Tunisia and Algeria. |

Distribution Dispatch of Oporto, EDP – Portugal |
|
Efacec Automation recently has successfully concluded a set of works for the EDP Distribuição, the Portuguese Electric Power Distribution Operator, related to a transfer of all Oporto control center installations to a brand new operational center. This control center operates the electrical network of northern and central area of Portugal.
With this move the control center operates in new installations, with modern and technologically advanced standards. With new functionalities implemented in the SCADA system; new communications network with a high level of cybersecurity; disaster recovery systems; more powerful operator stations; it provides excellent conditions for the network operation and supervision.
The kind of operation like this is a long and complex process. It's noteworthy that during all that time a temporary system was provided by Efacec, which guaranteed uninterrupted system operations. |

Substation Automation System for Bicentenario Substation, Chilectra – Chile |
After having successfully concluded the factory acceptance test during the last October 2011, a new Bicentenario distribution substation started its operation in the field at the beginning of 2012.
The installed system is based on CLP 500SAS platform and integrates fanless station server (UC 500E), protection units (TPU 420), and acquisition and control units (UAC 420).
With this brand new automation system featuring protection and control, Chilectra will benefit of a more reliable and efficient system, providing a better quality service to its customers.
