Description

The Micom S1 Agile software is an advanced engineering tool suite developed by GE Grid Solutions. It's designed for the configuration and maintenance of Micom P40 Agile relays.

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of the Micom Agile S1 software options and features starting from explanation of menus, tollbars and connecting the Agile S1 software to the Micom relays with different connection ways (USB to serial, ethernet) to creating project, extracting and sending setting parameters, PSL, MCL and disturbance records files. In addition, final settings for actual project in substation will be applied as example.

IEC61850 overview as a communication protocol used in the automation substations (SAS) to send / receive data and signals from the relays to the SAS system including differentiating various files such as ICD, CID, SCD, SSD, SED which are used for modeling the relays and the substation in SAS system. Quizes also provided for practicing and ensure understanding to the course content.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced protection engineer or testing and commissioning engineer, this course will guide you through the essential functions, advanced features, and best practices for operating the software efficiently. By the end of this course, you will be familiar with the software and have the confidence to utilize Micom Agile S1 like a pro.

Note:

For a better learning experience, please enable subtitles from the video settings.

Who this course is for:

Beginners with the field of substation testing and commissioning
Intermediate with the field of substation testing and commissioning
Protection Design engineers
Electrical engineers who want to shift carrier to substation protection field
