Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

The principles of the formation and use of the “digital twin” of a digital substation automation system based on the design database developed as part of a computer-aided design of secondary switching circuits (CAD CVC) are considered. A description of the design database structure and the information model, that provides integrated work both with circuit diagrams and installation documentation, and with digital exchange models in accordance with IEC 61850, is given. Auser interface for searching information is presented. It is proposed to use the “digital twin” at all stages of the object’s life cycle: design, installation, commissioning, and operation.
