PROJECT DESCRIPTION
To ensure greater reliability of its 735 kV transmission network, Hydro-Québec implemented an automatic control for detecting electrical disturbances likely to lead to network failure as a result of the loss of transmission lines or a low transmission service.
This automatic control includes protection elements, elements for line status supervision (open or closed), programmable automatic controls and communication links that analyze the network on an ongoing basis and shed loads or production as needed. |
