A. Vivaldi, Claudio Inácio de Almeida Costa, Germano Lambert‐Torres · 2012
Smart alarm and event processing is a tool to aid decision-making for the operators during the electric system monitoring in real time. The main function of this processing is elimination of secondary and unnecessary information while important data are highlighted to the operator during any failure or malfunction monitored in the electrical system. This processing is composed of four main parts: a rule-editor, an event-classifier, a rule-extractor and a rule-assembling. The two main parts composes a program named FASE, which runs in the control centers. The two last parts composes the program named EASE which produces rules for FASE. Currently the EDP-ESCELSA Power Distribution Company uses for monitoring of your electrical system the platform, named SCATEX, developed by EDP Group in partnership with the EFACEC Group. The SCATEX is a SCADA system, integrating supervision and control of electrical systems. This paper presents de the development of the four main parts of the program, with some practical examples from the ESCELSA database.
