The count shall be “frozen” (transferred to a buffer register) when commanded by the master
station or when commanded by locally generated contact inputs, also it can freeze and reset. The
RTU shall be capable of storing a series of accumulator values, in the even

of loss of communication to master station for a period not less than three days and
subsequently transmitting them upon request. The metering or counting period should be
configurable and possible to down load remotely a minimum count of 2 *24 (i.e. 24 bit binary
number) shall be capable of being held by the accumulator.
The Bidder shall describe his method for ensuring the value recorded at the master station(s)
corresponds precisely with the value indicated by the pulsing instrument.

to redefine which data is significant at any time must be provided for all classes ofdata.
(b) A request for the current state of any item or set of items ofdata.
44
The master station shall poll outstations to request status changes and measured values on a
cyclic basis. Where a report-by-exception technique is used such that only changes that have
occurred since the last poll will be returned by the RTU. In certain circumstances; the master
station shall initiate a full scan of each RTU to retrieve the actual state or value of each point.
This is to ensure that the network image held in the master station database is a true reflection of
the power system condition. Such full scans shall be initiated following a master station start up,
an RTU reset, upon restoration of communications and cyclically (at least every 24hours).
Information requests received by the RTU will normally be of type (a); type (b) requests will be
received during start-up of either the MS or RTU, and as a means of confirming the validity of
the representation of system state at the MasterStation.
Changes of digital data shall be assessed for significance as follows. Each digital point at an RTU
is to be allocated one of the following categories that shall have the stated response:
(a)Insignificant - ignore all changes.
(b)Active - report all changes which persist for more than 20 ms.
The initial state of the RTU shall be that all digital changes are insignificant. During the
initialization process and at any subsequent time, the category of any digital point may be
changed. Changes to Analogs shall be assessed for significance as follows. Each Analogpoint at
an RTU is to be allocated one of the following categories which shall have the stated response:
(a)Insignificant - ignore all changes.
(b)Active - report all values that differ by a pre-defined amount from the last value reported to
the MS.
The initial state of the RTU shall be that all Analog changes are insignificant. During the
Initialization process and at any subsequent time, the category and the significant difference of
any Analog point may be changed.
The difference value, or dead band, setting for analog reporting shall be a user-configurable
parameter. It shall be possible to define different settings independently for individual or groups
of analogs. The Tenderer shall provide details in their Tender.

3.3 TimeTagging
Certain status signals may be configured for local time tagging to be applied at the RTU.
These events shall be reported to the DCC/RTU with a time tag embedded in the message. RTU
shall have the capability to time tag events and alarms to a resolution of 1 ms or better. To
complement this feature, the RTU clocks shall be synchronized to enable system wide
comparisons to be made on the alarms and events recorded by different RTU s. The
synchronization shall be achieved by providing periodic time synchronization from the DCC to
all RTUs or, alternatively, directly from a GPSreceiver.
If the data link from the DCC to the RTU fails or GPS fail, the RTU shall continue to perform
time tagging from its internal clock until the data link is restored and the clock is corrected to
compensate for any time drift. The contractor should define the total drift time.
The Tenderer shall provide details of the following:
(a) Time tagging resolution at theRTU.
(b) Method of synchronizing the RTU's real time clock to the master clock from DCC or HMI in
case DCC communication fail to the RTU.

General
The RTU shall generate signals to implement the commands issued by the DCC/HMI, such as
circuit breaker open/close, tap changer raise/lower, reset alarms etc. These signals shall be in
the form of pulses whose duration can be configured by commands from the DCC/HMI. The
period of the command pulse shall be configurable between 0.5 and 60 seconds to allow for
circuits with synchronizing facilities. The command timer shall reset immediately after the
command is executed or the synchronizing is cancelled.

regulating (AVR) relays, at the substation.
When selected to supervisory control, it shall be possible for raise and low commands or RCO
set points to be issued to the tap changers from the DCC/RTU.
The raise and low commands shall not require an execute action by the operator (Two Step
command).
Feedback of command execution will be by an associated change in the indicated tap position etc.

3.5 RTU CheckingFacility

The RTU shall perform checks to ascertain the integrity of its processor(s), memory and
input/output cards. The results of these checks shall be made available to the DCC on demand.
The checks shall include:

Part 4 : Station control System SCS (optional)


4.1 Introduction
A distributed architecture station Control System(SCS) is Mean RTU with HMI ( not Micro
SCADA) shall be provided to enable the substation to be monitored and controlled remotely
from the substation control room. The SCS ( in combination with IED) shall also be capable of
serving as an RTU to the SCADA system master station located at the Distribution Control
Centre (DCC), acquiring and transmitting substation data to the DCC and executing commands
sent from theDCC.

The Contractor can provide suitable numeric devices which are implemented in a similar
environment to Iraq. The SCS can be combined with the protection system, as an Integrated
Protection and Control System. In this case, the following sections of the specification can be
treated as functional requirements that may be delivered in a different way.

4.1.1 Design Principles

The SCS shall be designed to achieve a high level of availability, reliability and safety in
operation.
The design shall be „fail safe‟ such that failure of any component shall result in all functions
affected by the failure defaulting to a defined „safe‟ state. It shall be fault tolerant such that the
failure of any single component within the overall system shall not affect the ability of the
remaining healthy components in the system to continue to operate normally and for its
functionality to remain available.
Essential functionality i.e. that required for the continued overall operation of the SCS shall be
tolerant to single component failures. This may be achieved, for example, by using dual
redundant hot/standby arrangements or by automatically re-distributing the functionality over
the remaining operational components so that loss of any one component does not result in the
loss of any functionality. The communication links between components within the overall SCS

48
shall be regarded as essential functionality and the SCS must continue to operate with full
functionality if any single communication link is out ofservice.
The system shall continuously monitor its own health and produce alarms for all detected
failures. These alarms shall be presented in the alarm lists on the operator workstation and, as
far as possible, by lighting „fault‟ warning LEDs on the affected equipment itself, e.g. on
individual circuit cards. There shall be no cases in which undetected failures could occur
anywhere within the overall SCS, including within the communication links between the
components of the system.
The equipment and the enclosures it is mounted in shall be designed to facilitate ease of
maintenance, particularly fault-finding and replacement of components, e.g. replacement of rack
mounted circuit cards. As far as possible, and consistent with safe operation, it shall be possible
to „Hot swap‟ components such as I/Ocards.
The equipment shall be robust, suitable for the operating environment in which it shall be
installed and requires minimalmaintenance.
Each sub-system within the SCS shall be designed to meet an overall availability of at least 99.98
per cent based on a Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) of 8 hours.

•Master Control Unit (MCU).
•Bay Control Units (BCU).
•Operator Workstation.
• Local Area Network(LAN).

The principle of testing shall be that, at stages throughout the work, formal tests shall be
performed and recorded against written test specifications, to provide a high level of
confidence to the Contractor and the Employer that subsequent stages can precede.
The responsibility for specifying, conducting and recording tests shall be with the Contractor,
but all aspects must be to the satisfaction of the Employer. The degree to which the Employer
intervenes in the process will depend upon the level of confidence built up during the project.
This document does not constitute a Test Specification or Test Procedure for any part of the
system; rather it sets out the stages at which tests are required and the subjects, location and
purpose of each stage. All Test Documentation for all tests shall be written by the Contractor
and submitted to the Employer for approval at least 12 weeks before they are first used.
