Identifying Patterns of Downed Conductors
Training for operators to identify patterns of live, downed conductors
Categories:
This video is meant for training operators to identify patterns of live, downed conductors. Topics include:
- Basics of energized, downed conductors
- Use of arc-detecting relay alarms
- Using visual patterns of outages to differentiate between a broken conductor and a false rollup from multiple fuse operations
- Comparing “confirmed” to “predicted” outages on SCADA reclosers
- Action plan for events involving a broken conductor
- Operator work flow on normal days
- Using support personnel on storm days
- Identifying patterns on non-SCADA devices
- Introduction to a system that can automatically ping to identify possible downed-conductor scenarios
- Record keeping
