Fault Analysis
Using the proven analysis engines, the AFAS solution provides for fault identification by determining the fault type, start time, trip time, fault magnitudes, and fault impedances. The signal injection features allow users to playback recorded data into the relay model to validate the as designed versus as found relay response. The electrical digital twin is used to validate the system response by leveraging the Sequence of Operations engines to validate that the correct protection scheme was executed within the expected time cycles.
Waveform Visualization
To further analyze an event, the waveform viewer is a full featured tool which offers engineers key insight into an event with signals provided by the disturbance recorder as well as key calculated signals available for analysis.
