3 SICAM PAS Setting and Supporting New Standads IEC Interoperability and integration capabilities facilitate supplier independent system integration and reduce planning efforts. Security is important SICAM PAS supports security standards, DNP secure, etc. This helps protect against unauthorized user access and system intrusions. Future proof Standardized protocols provide interoperability without the need for expensive gateways. Networking capability and remote access also enable cost-optimized operating practices. Straightforward system structure with optimum expandability High scalability allows functionality to be adjusted to application-specific requirements. As such requirements grow, the system simply grows along with them without the need for reinstallations. Enter your data only once Powerful software wizards support engineering from local IED devices up to the HMI or the SCADA system. Regardless of the number and variety of functions, one central database reduces data entry effort so information only needs to be entered once into the system. This provides data consistency and minimizes effort. Simplified engineering A user-friendly Microsoft Windows environment minimizes the time needed to learn the system, thus improving productivity and reliability. Graphical configuration and automation contribute to straightforward parameter definition, thus reducing engineering times. High-speed processing via distributed intelligence A decentralized system structure with compact bay control devices reduces the complexity of wiring. Decentralized processing of switching interlocks boosts data throughput, shortens response time, and improves system safety. Networking capability offers new possibilities The SICAM PAS can implement standard IT network strategies by utilizing TCP/IP network methods. Interconnection devices and applications over WAN/LAN from the substation up to back office provides an environment conducive for Smart Grid technologies. Information available anywhere, anytime Both locally and remotely, optimized diagnostic tools provide in-depth information about processes and the system. Extensive and clear data visualization supports timely and accurate decision-making. Innovation combined with decades of experience Twenty years of experience in power automation and seventy years of experience in telecontrol combined with the future-oriented IEC standard that s SICAM PAS. It provides a powerful synergy within the long-standing SICAM family. Our experience will provide a secure return on your investment profit from it! 3

4 SICAM PAS Tailor-Made Flexibility, Today and Tomorrow Economic efficiency and reliable Electric power supply are challenges that energy providers and industries are facing worldwide. With high scalability and modern architecture, SICAM PAS helps address these challenges while offering room for future system expansion. Hundreds of substations equipped with SICAM PAS using IEC are working successfully and hundreds more are currently being implemented. You can profit from our wealth of experience. IEC the standard of success With Siemens participating directly in the standardization committees, SICAM PAS was developed with specific reference to the new standard. With more than 7,000 SICAM systems in use worldwide today, the incorporation of IEC now offers users the latest technology in power automation. SICAM PAS interoperable power automation By using IEC 61850, the station unit of SICAM PAS leads the way to a future-oriented interoperable system structure. Thus, SICAM PAS can integrate other manufacturer s bay control and protection units using IEC The design and parameters of SICAM PAS support a direct exchange of data at the bay level, thus avoiding communication bottlenecks. Due to fast Ethernet connections and a station unit optimized for data transfer and processing, SICAM PAS is truly a leading power automation system. Existing Devices DNP3 SICAM PAS IEC61850 HMI SICAM PAS the ease of integration For many years station control has used proprietary protocols. These protocols have been incorporated into SICAM PAS to allow existing systems to be integrated into the present environment at low cost. Profibus and DNP3 enables existing systems belonging to the SICAM family to be included in a design based on IEC DNP3, Modbus, TG8979, IEC and -104 are available for remote communication. Siemens is involved in the STA (Seamless Telecommunications Architecture) standards project, which is aimed at system-wide use of IEC up to the network control center. Our involvement ensures this integration capability of SICAM PAS. SICAM PAS utmost transparency at any level New standards from the IT and office sectors are included to improve data sharing. Networking capabilities and open data interfaces such as OPC (Object Linking and Embedding for Process Control) facilitate information transfer between the office and industrial environments. Analysis and display of power data, as are frequently needed by production coordinators in the industry, are an easy matter. SIPROTEC Protection SICAM PAS CC local Visualization and Control With centralized visualization at the substation it is possible to get an overall overview and control at the substation. This, in turn, increases switching safety. The HMI can solve topology, handle event and alarm management, and display event history. The one-line display provides a clear overview of the current situation at the substation. With remote access, switching and maintenance becomes easier and more effective. 4

5 SICAM PAS the Economical Choice Scalability and flexibility mean SICAM PAS can be adapted to suit a wide range of requirements. Be it relatively simple solutions for the user in small or medium-sized industrial plants or the demands typically encountered with the high voltage levels, SICAM PAS masters these challenges with an attractive price/performance ratio. SICAM PAS proves cost-effective in operation. Functions can be activated at any time within the scope of the standard product without the need for reinstallation. Projectspecific options can be added to boost the flexibility of your application at any time. Your investment remains secure thanks to proven standards, a wide variety of communication capabilities and sophisticated functionality. SICAM PAS for faster standard configuration DIGSI, the configuration tool for SICAM PAS, can receive configuration data directly from the bay level. XML data transfer is available for IEC and the SIPROTEC 4 relays. Standard configurations for other manufacturers protective devices are available in a library which can be integrated into SICAM PAS as templates, thus avoiding double inputs or input errors. SICAM PAS provides the configuration data needed for integration in an overall solution in XML format. This minimizes the effort needed to connect a local HMI, especially SICAM PAS CC, and for interfacing with a network control center. SICAM PAS for faster custom configuration During the design of the SICAM PAS system, a high value was set on the usability of the parameter setting and diagnosis tools. By means of these unique tools integrated directly in the system, parameter setting and commissioning can be accomplished easily and swiftly. This eliminates the need for version checks of the parameter tools or for special test instruments. SICAM PAS CC centralized monitoring and control Systems spread over wide areas require robust monitoring capabilities. With the SICAM PAS CC (Control Center) you can monitor and control distributed devices from a central point. Custom designed use screens clearly display the operating conditions, enabling you to react quickly, reduce your operating costs, and efficiently restore power in the event of malfunctions. As an integrated overall system, SICAM PAS supports you all the way from the bay/relay level to the control center interface with fast data handling, the flexibility of a programmable-logic controller, and the reliability of a field-proven power automation unit. for decentralized systems Decentralized system structuring is a growing trend due to its costoptimized wiring and enhanced flexibility. Siemens continues the successful line of products with the SICAM PAS and SICAM PAS CC. Driven by the new optimization potentials of IEC 61850, SICAM PAS has been created from a synergy of both systems. In addition to existing advantages, it offers even higher reliability and improved security of investment. Availability and flexibility will help you create state-of- the-art control and protection functions in power automation. Substation Visualization (HMI) 5
