Metodología para la caracterización de protocolos de comunicación en subestaciones eléctricas

Abstract

Efficient management of the electrical power grid is crucial to ensure a reliable and secure energy supply. Electrical substations are essential points that enable the monitoring and operation of the distribution system, where communication protocols allow the exchange of critical information between devices and systems, ensuring effective supervision and remote control. The integration of digitalized protection, control, and measurement equipment in substations requires specific communication protocols. Likewise, the diversity of devices and technologies within the substation has led to a wide variety of communication protocols, each with unique technical specifications, performance requirements, and security levels. To address this challenge, it is proposed to develop a methodology that compiles detailed information on the various communication protocols used in electrical substations, providing a clear and accessible guide to understand and compare these protocols, thereby facilitating their practical application in electrical systems.
