Abstract

The integration of distribution SCADA systems with Automated Mapping and Facilities Management (AM/FM) systems improves the potential for developing efficient tools for the operation and control of distribution networks. This paper presents the features of a pilot AM/FM system to be utilised in conjunction with a real-time SCADA system. In addition to rapid retrieval of graphic information and facility attribute data, the system is capable of maintaining a dynamic feeder connectivity model and performing outage analysis.
