Applications 

2.4.  Automation

The Automated Transformer and Switching Substations 

include the equipment and technology necessary for 

carrying out the Remote Control and Automation of the 

network, as well as the remote reading of the meters. 

To accomplish this, the Transformer and/or Switching 

Substation includes the following components: 

Equipment for automation of the network installed in the 

Medium Voltage switchgear of the Transformer and/or 

Switching Substation. 

An ekor.gid unit which includes: 

1.  Communication components 
2.  PLC concentrator
3.  Low Voltage network Monitor(s). 
4.  Ethernet gateway  

In cases in which the Substation is automated, in addition 

to having an ekor.gid unit, the Substation includes at least 

one ekor.uct unit or a cgmcosmos-2lpt Compact Cubicle 

with Integrated Remote Control Equipment, through which 

the automation and remote control of the entire Substation 

is carried out. 

Figure 2.5.

 in Substation with remote control

The Automation of the Medium Voltage network is an  

ekor.uct Compact Remote Control Unit or a 

 

cgmcosmos-2lpt

[2]

 Compact Cubicle with Integrated 

Remote Control Unit, which has the following functionalities 

implemented: 

1.  Operation and status of the Medium Voltage switchgear. 
2.  Directional fault indication. This functionality facilitates 

the location of damages inside the Electrical network.  

[2] Refer to 

Ormazabal’

IG-177

 General Instructions document for 

cgmcosmos-2lpt 

Compact Cubicle with Integrated Remote Control 

Unit.

3.  Metering of the Medium Voltage electrical parameters: 

voltage, current, active power and reactive power.  

These measurements are meant to optimise the energy 

flows. 

4.  Enable alarms using different sensors: 

 - Water or level sensor

 - Fire or smoke sensor

 - Presence of personnel at the Substation sensor or 

intruder alarm

 - Transformer temperature sensor

 - etc.

5.  Medium Voltage transformer position trip with 

presence of any alarm (fire, water, etc.). 

6.  Communications protocol IEC 60870-5-104 

implemented in the ekor.ccp unit for communicating 

with the Operation Control Centre through the 

 

ekor.gid. 

7.  Web server included with the ekor.ccp Programmable 

Cubicle Controller for consulting all the functions 

available in the ekor.ccp unit as well as modifying 

settings and updating functionality.

8.  Possibility of programming restore-service automations. 
9.  Power supply equipment: 

There is a direct current power supply that is connected 

to the Substation's Low Voltage Board. This power 

supply equipment adapts the direct voltage level to 

the power supply both for internal components and 

all the equipment available in the ekor.gid unit. It also 

charges the batteries included with the ekor.uct unit, 

which allows feeding these components in the absence 

of voltage.
