Abstract:
The specific equipment, installation and machinery infrastructure of an electric power system have always required specially designed data acquisition systems and devices to ensure their safe operation and monitoring. Besides maintenance, periodical upgrade must be ensured for these systems, to meet the current practical requirements. Monitoring, testing, and diagnosis altogether represent key activities in the development process of electric power elements. This work presents the detailed structure and implementation of a complex, configurable system which can assure efficient monitoring, testing, and diagnosis for various electric power infrastructures, with proven efficiency through a comprehensive set of experimental results obtained in real running conditions. The developed hardware and software implementation is a robust structure, optimized for acquiring a large variety of electrical signals, also providing easy and fast connection within the monitored environment. Its high level of configurability and very good price-performance ratio makes it an original and handy solution for electric power infrastructures.
