Energy Automation
Substation automation, remote terminal units, HMI and digital substations for reliable, connected power grids.
Energy Automation portfolio
Supplied on their own or engineered into complete, commissioned systems.
Digital Substation
The heart of the power supply goes digital. Digitalized substations collect valuable data from the entire power grid. This means that the heart of the power supply can also become the heart of energy data communication – and can create added value.

Energy SCADA
For some years now, power generation and distribution have been undergoing major changes. The innovation cycles (where operating equipment and communication media are concerned) are getting ever shorter, and the market is becoming increasingly deregulated. The systems used to monitor power supply equipment and processes must take account of these changes. When new products are used, user friendliness, easy engineering, manifold interfacing to various communication media and extensibility are important Features. SICAM PAS (Power Automation System) meets all the demands placed on a distributed substation control system – both now and in the future. Amongst many other standardized communication protocols, SICAM PAS particularly supports the IEC 61850 standard for communication between substations and IEDs. SICAM PAS is an open system and – in addition to standardized data transfer processes – it features user interfaces for the integration of system-specific tasks and offers multiple automation options. SICAM PAS can thus be easily included in existing systems and used for system integration, too. With modern diagnostics, it optimally supports commissioning and maintenance. SICAM PAS is clearly structured and reliable, thanks to its open, fully documented and tested System.

Human Machine Interface
The process and visualization system SICAM SCC is a central element of energy automation solutions. The system is independent of the substation technology installed. SICAM SCC is compatible with the SICAM PAS Power Automation System, the products of the SICAM RTUs line. And in case you are not using a substation controller in your station: SICAM SCC communicates directly with bay units and protection devices that support the IEC 61850 communication standard. As a result it can be used as an overall HMI system for devices. The SIMATIC WinCC based SICAM SCC system is scalable and offers efficient engineering for energy automation applications at utilities and industrial enterprises.

The SICAM A8000 series is a modular device range for telecontrol and automation applications in all areas of energy supply. This device series was developed to fulfill the requirements of a broad field of applications. The most important features are: Suitable for rough ambient conditions thanks to mechanically stable modules and an extended temperature range from -40 to +70 °C. High voltage strength up to 5kV (IEC 60255) for use directly in substations. Fulfills tomorrow’s cyber security requirements with BDEW White Paper conformity, integrated crypto chip and IPSec encryption. Integrated communications interfaces incl. GPRS “on board”. Automation functions (IEC 61131-3), e.g. for controlling a regulated distribution transformer or for load control. Space-saving design with a module width of 30mm (without display for CP) Scalable by combining individual I/O modules. Long product life cycle and high investment security by using standards as IEC 61850.
