1. Application
The REG-DA relay for voltage control is used to perform both
complex and simple measurement, control and regulation
tasks on tap-changing transformers. To achieve these tasks,
the REG-DA voltage regulator can be used with an array of
add-on components, such as the BIN-D and ANA-D remote
I/O modules, and an assortment of communication cards.
Each REG-DA has transducer and statistical modes, as well as
optional multi-channel recorder, transformer monitoring
module (TMM) and ParaGramer.
Transducer Mode displays all of the relevant measured
variables of the voltage network, while Statistical Mode
provides a clear overview of the various switching
operations of the tap changer.
Voltage regulators operating in parallel are connected via a
fibre optic or copper ELAN bus, which enables the automatic
sharing of relevant data. ParaGramer then detects which
transformers have been switched into a parallel control
scheme and displays this information via a single-line
diagram.
A number of different communication cards are available for
the REG-DA, with connections that range from copper RS232
to fibre optic Ethernet.
A variety of protocols are available to communicate with a
SCADA system or RTU:

The REG-PED is capable of most of these protocols and may
be switched between them and configured using the free
WinConfig software. WinConfig is specifically designed to
provide a similar configuration interface for all of the
protocols, thereby reducing engineering time.
The powerful TMM functions enable the continuous
monitoring of various conditions within the transformer and
tap changer. Information such as hot-spot temperature (IEC
60354 or IEC 60076) and transformer loss-of-life are
calculated, and if necessary up to six cooling levels can be
activated.
As an alternative to direct measurement, the U, I, tap
position and cos() value can also be transmitted to the
REG-DA via either IEC 61850 or by mA inputs, thereby
eliminating the need for CT and VT cabling to the regulator.
The REG-DA regulator can communicate with a SCADA
system (see list of characteristics) through all of the
common protocols.
Freely programmable inputs and outputs enable the
implementation of application specific tasks.
