A fairly fundamental greenfield substation design is the starting point for the adoption of 3-D design. Driven by a need for multidiscipline substation design and intelligent data capture, the U.K.
Designing a substation using old-school techniques eats up labor hours like a 747 sucks up jet fuel. It is just amazing so many companies still subscribe to those same labor-intensive approaches that ...

The risk of blackouts and brownouts (a fall in voltage, typically causing lights to dim) are increasing on the power distribution grid due to ageing infrastructure and a lack of automation systems ...
The FINANCIAL — Siemens launches PowerLink IP, a new power line carrier (PLC) system for digital high-voltage substations. This brand new PLC system uses the high-voltage lines between the substations ...
“It depends.” When a disaster like Hurricane Florence strikes, that’s often the answer from transmission experts when asked how long before electricity is restored to a substation affected by ...
Contractors test voltage using “hot sticks” atop a lift at substation N on Vandenberg Space Force Base, Calif., June 2, 2022. (U.S. Space Force photo by Airman 1st Class Ryan Quijas) For many ...
As decision-makers look for practical and worthwhile ways to improve substation monitoring, they often turn to heat-vision applications, such as infrared thermography. Such methods allow people to use ...
