Remote Terminal Unit-RTU

Remote terminal UNIT-RTU is a general term for various remote monitoring installed in the distribution network, which has functions such as data collection, control, and communication.



BD-163 distribution automation master terminal unit in scada is a new generation of China power distribution box based on the latest generation of automated remote terminal technology. The rtu remote terminal unit like our mcc cabinets electrical is the eyes and limbs of the power distribution automation system. The operating status of RTU in SCADA system is related to the data reliability, performance accuracy and operational safety of the power distribution automation. When the configuration is correct and the operation is normal, the RTU system realizes the correct operation of switches, rapid fault isolation and power restoration, thereby improving power supply reliability.

Remote Terminal Unit-RTU Function

Distribution Terminal Unit-DTU installation location: indoor and outdoor opening and closing station, power distribution room, knife lock chamber, box change, switch?it can detect line fault and overload status function, and can detect line zero sequence overvoltage, zero sequence overcurrent, line overload, line overcurrent, phase-to-phase short circuit protection, etc. It can be flexibly set to alarm and trip action. And record the fault event.



The main functions of the RTU in SCADA system are



Realize comprehensive coverage and monitoring of the operating conditions of power distribution terminals, and quickly retrieve and locate each terminal through the terminal list column;



Realize remote monitoring of distribution terminal channel working conditions and board status, and timely alert terminal equipment defect information through the event warning window;



Realize the remote query of the fixed value setting of the SCADA in electrical power system, the content of the information table and the program version, and complete the program upgrade, the fixed value placement, and the modification of the information table remotely through the remote setting bar;



Realize the remote query and download of the information in the memory of the power distribution terminal, such as remote signal displacement, over-current alarm, remote control operation record and other local information.



How RTUs System Gather Information

Different from the and feeder remote terminal unit, the remote operation and maintenance system of the RTU scada remote terminal unit is composed of a communication management server, a Web server, network security protection equipment, and a maintenance workstation: the communication management server is used to provide direct communication with remote terminals and collect status information and parameter information of each remote terminal. The data gathered by remote terminal unit in SCADA is forwarded to the web server according to the data requested by the web server, and the terminal parameter setting command issued by the webserver is forwarded to the terminal; the web data server is used to provide a high-performance network service to provide users with browsing and modifying terminal parameters and status The interface also displays terminal real-time letter and wish data, and realizes various functions of human-computer interaction.
