摘要:This paper presents the application of the CIM standard in the modelling of a transmission grid in the SYNDIS-PLANS system.The SYNDIS system is a SCADA type environment and has been integrated with the PLANS package,which is widely used in the NPS for calculation and analysis of power distribution.The electric al power engineering industry uses various programs the work of which is based on their proprietary data models.The data exchange between different packages is difficult.Hence there was a need for developing a common data model which greatly simplifies the data exchange between applications.The development work on the common definition of the electrical power system was conducted at EPRI and resulted in the standard system/grid description,i.e the CIM (Common Information Model).This paper presents the basic rules of modelling in compliance with the CIM standard,including the description of basic CIM classes used in the modelling of the transmission grid in SYNDIS-PLANS,supplemented by a description of the electrical power system elements browser.This article also describes the method of integrating the PLANS power distribution calculation package with the SYNDIS system.A list of SYNDIS-PLANS application in electrical Power engineering is also provided.
