Grid Control Workflow for Switching and Placement Measures
Netzführung Abbildung des Workflows zu Schalt- und Stellmaßnahmen
The Module Lovion GRID depicts the topological network and can display switching circuit signals in different colours. With Lovion ANALYZER, the grid can be analyzed and evaluated based on its topological network. For grid control, the modules Lovion SWITCHING and Lovion SWITCHBOARD are used to determine the operational switching conditions and to visualize the workflow for switching and placement measures including planning, authorization and switching post-notifications.

Network Topology
The network topology, meaning the connection between lines and points, can be displayed in Lovion GRID. In most cases the network information is derived from GIS or the control system.
Switching Circuit Colours
Lovion GRID displays and alters switching circuit signals through use of colour and Lovion ANALYZER visualizes socket records of network analyses based on their standard switching preparations.
Standard Switch Conditions
In most cases network operators administrate operational information about their assets in grid documentations. This information in GIS is usually stored as statistical data based on standard switching conditions.

Evaluating current Grid Conditions
In order to utilize switch conditions in grid control, an up-to-date dataset of operational indicators is required in various overviews or schematic plans. Evaluating network conditions is made possible through network analyses based on topological features and standard switch conditions.
Switching and Placement Measures
Switching and placement measures can be carried out for unplanned events such as unexpected outages. Planned switching and placement measures for repair works e.g. construction work or grid planning activities are prepared beforehand within a medium- and long-termed timeframe.
