PROTECTION & CONTROL

 

Protection & Control Design & Engineering
At Grid Pioneer, we provide comprehensive Protection & Control (P&C) engineering services designed to safeguard power systems at every level. From detailed relay settings to advanced protection schemes and real-time testing, our team ensures system reliability, operational security, and regulatory compliance.
Our Capabilities Include:
Relay Engineering & Coordination
  • Protection settings for systems ranging from 4kV to 765kV
  • Transmission Line Protection: Design and implementation of distance, differential, and communication-aided schemes (87L, DCB, POTT, PUTT, DCUB)
  • Unit Protection Systems: Specialized protection for generators, transformers, capacitor banks, and reactors
  • Substation Protection: Protection and control schemes for buses, breakers, and auxiliary systems
  • Distribution System Protection: Fault coordination and protective strategies for medium-voltage networks
  • FACTS Protection: Tailored protection for Flexible AC Transmission Systems
  • Wide-Area Schemes & RAS: System Integrity Protection Schemes (SIPS) and Remedial Action Schemes (RAS)
System Testing & Simulation:
  • Real-Time Digital Simulation (RTDS): Validation of protection logic and system behavior
  • Transient Stability & Event Analysis: Disturbance modeling and root cause investigation
  • Secondary Injection Testing: Functional verification of protection relays and control circuits
Custom P&C Scheme Design:
  • Application-Specific Schemes: Designs for lines, transformers, capacitor banks, breakers, and more
  • Auto-Reclosing & Transfer Schemes: Enhancing system recovery and reliability
  • Volt/VAR Control Systems: Reactive power management and voltage optimization
