Switching Sequence Management

Switching Sequence Management allows the dispatcher to build, test, and simulate a complete switching sequence using a graphical user interface and execute the switching plan all in one step.

The switching sequence builder contains a list of switching devices and time of execution for circuit breakers, load disconnects, and ground disconnects.

Before any switching sequence simulation is executed, the application verifies whether the sequence is compliant with safety switching procedures and requests confirmation during execution simulation of each step before proceeding to the next step in order to avoid inadvertent switching.
