Re m e d i a l Ac t i o n Sc h e m es
SEL remedial action schemes (RAS) protect against
blackouts and system instability, increase corridor
capacity limits, increase reliability, respond automati-
cally to system contingencies, and bring your system
operation closer to its stability limits.
With remedial action schemes from SEL, you can
detect and automatically respond to multiple,
consecutive system contingencies. Control thou-
sands of contingencies and loads with high-speed
Mirrored Bits communications or IEC 61850 GOOSE
messages. Preserve system stability using intelligent,
contingency-based actions, such as flexible load and
generation shedding. All loads and generation can be
prioritized and shed only when necessary to satisfy the
contingency. Remedial action schemes detect unstable
power conditions and automatically take corrective
action, such as system islanding, to avoid blackouts.
Let SEL Engineering Services design a remedial action
scheme for your system.

SEL information processors support standard as well
as customized SCADA applications with real-time
access and control.
• Use SEL information processors, such as the
SEL-3354 Embedded Automation Computing
Platform or the SEL-3530 RTAC, for SCADA
RTU and IED data collection and connectivity.
• Create distribution management systems (DMS) to
avoid service interruptions, restore power quickly,
and manage load shedding, load flow, switch
order, automatic voltage control, disturbance
analysis, load management, and SER analysis.
• Create energy management systems (EMS) for
automatic generation control, synchrophasor state
analysis, state estimation, operator load flow, load
management, contingency analysis, dispatcher
load flow, and optimal power flow.

A sset O pt i m i za t i o n
SEL information processors form the data backbone
of a complete substation asset optimization system
by collecting, sorting, and storing information before
sending it to a system-wide database. SEL asset opti-
mization solutions provide the secure, concise, and
controlled data that asset and maintenance managers
need.
Optimize the life cycle of your assets by monitoring
key health indicators, and improve maintenance
scheduling, life cycle management, reliability
programs, and power quality management. Contin-
uous monitoring of transformer and circuit breaker
operating conditions can help you evaluate wear,
allowing you to schedule or avoid unnecessary main-
tenance, improve physical management of assets, and
improve system loading. Cost-effective, data-driven
maintenance schedules, allowed by SEL Asset Optimi-
zation, reduce maintenance costs, increase asset life,
help engineers make informed decisions, and maxi-
mize engineering resources.
