FLISR Triggers Upstream Restoration
![Page 11: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Downstream restoration of blinking section
Compare load with available capacity
![Page 12: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Downstream restoration of blinking section
Compare load with available capacity
Pre-fault load
= 1 MW
Available Capacity =
2 MW
![Page 13: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13 © 2012 Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.
Capability exists, so…
Available Capacity =
2 MW
Pre-fault load
= 1 MW
![Page 14: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

FLISR closes switch to restore service
Via alternate supply line
![Page 15: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15 © 2012 Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.
Now FLISR checks for capacity to
Transfer last downstream section
Available Capacity = 1.5
MW
Pre-fault load
= 2 MW
![Page 16: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16 © 2012 Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. All rights reserved.
In this case capacity does not exist so
downstream section is not restored
Pre-fault load
= 2 MW
Available Capacity = 1.5
MW
![Page 17: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Options for the red substation….
Pre-fault load
= 2 MW
Available Capacity = 2.5
MW
![Page 18: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

These actions free enough capacity to
pick up last remaining section
![Page 19: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Leveraging CIM, Augmented Reality and Context
Aware GIS
![Page 24: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Definition – Common Information Model (CIM)
• In our context, it is a
semantic model of the
electric utility industry that
may be leveraged to create
standard messaging
between back office
systems --- or in our case,
tablet or other hardware in
the field.
![Page 25: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Definitions – Augmented Reality
• Augmented reality (AR) is a
live, direct or indirect, view of
a physical, real-world
environment whose
elements are augmented by
computer-generated sensory
input such as sound, video,
graphics or GPS data.
• Not to be confused with
virtual reality – which
replaces a real world with a
simulated one.

Definition – Context Aware GIS
• Using the dynamic context of
mobile device users, caused
by the mobility and constant
change in the environment,
to deliver information.
• Aware of the spatial
environment surrounding the
user.
• Aware of the role (limiting
access) of the user.

Traditional Point-to-Point Integration
Characteristics
• Complex environment
• High integration costs
• High maintenance costs
• Message tracking – non-
existent
• Guaranteed delivery –
non-existent
• Frequent “broken”
interfaces.
There is no “leverage” of the information being exchanged
![Page 29: Field Force Operational Data Visualization - Smart Grid... · 2019-06-05 · Electric Power Industry – 1024696 •Field Force Data Visualization: A Mobile Integrated Data Access](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060509/5f25274dbeb5d6739817f5e3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

“Smart” Integration
Characteristics
• Enterprise semantic model
• Enterprise service bus
– Little or no custom code
– Lower integration cost
– Lower maintenance
costs
– Message tracking
– Guaranteed delivery
– Reliable.
Messages are agnostic of their origins

Example: Typical Elements of a Work Request
• Work ID
• Location
• A bill of materials (BOM)
• An estimated time of
completion is calculated and
a start or completion time is
calculated.
• Crew type (based on skill
sets or roles)
• Detailed work tasks.

Field Force Data Visualization
The Issue:
• Access to real-time data in the field has not progressed
• Getting data to the field is too expensive
• Getting the data from the field is too cumbersome
• The applications don’t interop
• Data is not accurate
The Impact:
• Work is not efficient
• Decisions in the field suffer.
• Potentially dangerous situation.
Multiple applications in the field isn’t a great leap forward

What About Security?
• Platform (iOS) Security
– Low level system calls not allowed
– App isolation – each app in its own “sandbox”
– Library randomization
– Encrypted drive
– Password protected
• Network Security
– SSL/TLS with X.509 certificates
• Application Security
– Encrypted data exchanges
– Strong log in

Commoditization
• Commoditization occurs when consumers
can buy the same product or service from
different small or large businesses.
• Price is the only distinguishing factor in
commoditized products, because there is
no significant difference in quality or in
how consumers use these products.
• Companies usually cannot raise prices
because consumers can shop at
competitors offering the same or similar
products at lower prices.
• This process is enabled by standards or
de facto standards.

Examples of Benefits of Commoditization
• C12.10 standard
– Mass production of meters
– Residential electrical meter ~ $20
• C12.18/C12.19 Optical port
• TX/RX Protocols
− Interoperable hardware: probes, hand held readers, etc.

Typical Distribution Control Center a
Few Years Ago
• Distribution System was operated
manually with wall- mounted
switching diagrams
• Mostly paper driven processes

Current Trend in Control Center
Design
• Increasing emphasis on “outside the fence” visualization
• Large mapboards disappearing from distribution control centers
• Use of stackable monitors for operator workstations – allows view of specific “area of responsibility”

What if we were to bring the same technology
inside the operations center?
• Geo-schematic view
• Geographic view
• Crew locations
• Fault locations
• Create a works order
• Assign to a crew

Conclusions
• The combination of mobile technologies, standards
development and communications enables new ways to
access and view data.
• Integration – the ability to use data from multiple systems –
is available not only in the back office but in the field.
• Standardizing the symbology and visualization technology
has far reaching implications for mutual aid/large event
management.
• The same technologies – touch screens, standard symbols,
standard messages, etc. – can be leveraged inside the
operations center with likely gains in efficiency and quality
decisions.
