DAC · Automatic Load Shedding

Automatic load shedding after generation loss.

Automatic load shedding systems that help maintain generation–demand balance and system stability under defined conditions.

Conceptual screen with simulated data: under-frequency load shedding with two generators, load priorities and frequency response after a simulated event.

01 / Capabilities

Engineering around your operation.

Scope is defined around the needs, equipment and conditions of each project.

  • Load shedding philosophy

    Definition of operating conditions and loads included in the scope.

  • System coordination

    Integration of signals and sequences with available control infrastructure.

  • Operator information

    Supervision of states and actions according to the project platform.

  • Testing & commissioning

    Verification of system functions against agreed criteria.

02 / Solution focus

Experience in CEPM’s system.

SIENCA has a DAC system at CEPM capable of shedding load following generation loss to help maintain system stability. The detailed case study is in preparation.

Interfaces and responsibilities

What we define with you before execution.

A clear scope reduces integration risk. These points are agreed in writing at the start of the project.

  • Stability study and operating criteria.
  • Sheddable loads or feeders and their priority.
  • Available generation signals and switching equipment.
  • Supervision platform and event recording.
  • Coordination with existing protection and on-site testing.

How we implement it

Engineering with a clear sequence.

  1. Understand

    Needs, installation and operating conditions.

  2. Develop

    Architecture, hardware and programming.

  3. Integrate and test

    Interfaces, functions and acceptance criteria.

  4. Support

    Commissioning and agreed technical support.

Support

Support continues during operation.

For solutions implemented by SIENCA, we offer remote assistance and recurring site visits within an ongoing maintenance program.

Service arrangements and coverage defined for each project.

  • Remote technical assistance.
  • Recurring site visits.
  • Ongoing maintenance program.
