Introduction and Specifications
Introduction
The SEL-2032 Communications Processor provides many special features
needed in today’s substations to communicate with a variety of
microprocessor-based devices. The SEL-2032 can function as a simple, but
intelligent, port switch; or it can provide sophisticated communication and
data handling capability required for advanced substation integration projects.
This section provides the following:
➤
Introduction to the SEL-2032 and information on features,
applications, and specifications.
➤
Introduction to the terminology, concepts, and operation of
integrated substations and communications processors.
Applications
The functions of the SEL-2032 make it extremely versatile and powerful. You
can combine basic functions of the SEL-2032 to meet the requirements of
your application. Often the cost of the SEL-2032 is justified based on a single
major function, and other features add additional value to your application.
Several of the most popular applications are listed below.
Substation
Integrator
The communication processing and database capability of the SEL-2032 are
designed to collect and store data from numerous devices, parse it into useful
pieces, and distribute just the needed data to other devices or systems. This is
the fundamental purpose of substation integration, making the SEL-2032 a
natural choice for this application. Its networking capabilities allow it to be the
communication network for small substation integration projects, or it can
serve as a subnetwork integrator with one or more ties to a larger substation
network.
SCADA and
HMI Interface
The SEL-2032 can be interfaced with a variety of devices, including RTUs
and HMIs. The SEL-2032 can serve as a data concentrator, to be polled by a
local RTU, or it can be connected to a dedicated SCADA communication
circuit and polled by a central device.
