The rainfall specific sensor 108 may be installed in case of a rainy season or a typhoon occurs in a certain rain or more alarm, and can manage the rainfall of the substation in real time. The humidity sensor 109 also plays the same role.

When the initial power of the manned substation 10 is turned on, information obtained from the various external devices and sensors is transmitted to the controller 110. The microcomputer 1101 of the controller 110 receives the received information. Based on the self-diagnosis, the operation is performed. In this process, each phase voltage / current is measured and the load unbalance, phase difference, and power factor are calculated using the measured values. When each situation occurs, an active countermeasure is to perform on-site control of each of the plurality of motors 150 through the motor pump controller 1103 in the processing unit (MPU). The plurality of motors 150 are pumps for drainage purposes. The water level signal from each of the motors receives the water level signal from the arithmetic processing unit 1101 and calculates the measured value, and the drainage level is 4 to 20 mA. When the current is 4mA, and when the high water level is 20mA, the motor is operated / stopped by using one of the respective control devices according to the height of the water level.

In addition, by using the TEL MODEM (130) for the system abnormality can be dialed up to five places to notify the occurrence of the abnormality can be prepared for a variety of routes management system and emergency preparedness measures. .

Meanwhile, the manned substation includes a network modem 140 for real time communication with the unmanned substation 20, which is the greatest feature of the system according to the present invention. The manned substation 10 where the manager resides is an external device of the unmanned substation 20 by real time communication through Ethernet (WEB) between the manned substation 10 and the unmanned substation 20 while the manager directly manages the substation. And all information of the unmanned substation 20, such as information obtained from the environmental monitoring device and information related to the abnormality of the system, can be monitored and controlled.

The unmanned substation 20 of the system according to the present invention has a structure similar to that of the manned substation 10 described above, but does not reside in an administrator, so that an abnormal occurrence of the system sends an SMS or a voice message to the system, and the manned substation The network modem is connected to the controller separately for communication.

Referring to FIG. 1, the unmanned substation 20 includes a phase checking device 201, a phase checking device 202, a leakage checking device 203, and a vacuum breaker (VCB) state checking device 204. Information obtained from a fault detection device such as a motor operation state checking device 205 and a drainage level checking device 206 and an environmental monitoring device such as a temperature sensor 207, a rainfall measurement sensor 208, and a humidity sensor 209. Controller 210 for controlling the entire system and a plurality of motors 280 by receiving the operation, and the speaker 240, LCD display 250, the administrator to inform the function settings and the corresponding situation according to the results of the controller SMS device 260 for sending a text or voice and a network modem 230 for communication with a mandatory substation 10. The controller 210 includes a micro arithmetic unit (MPU) 2101 for receiving and calculating information about a state of a system and a motor pump controller 2103 for controlling a plurality of motors 280. Functions and relationships of each of the components of the unmanned substation have been described above in the manned substation, and thus will be omitted.

On the other hand, both the mandatory substation 10 and the unmanned substation 20 include VPS / CVCFs 190 and 260, which are voltage fluctuations, frequency fluctuations, instantaneous blackouts, transient voltages, etc. when using a general power supply or a backup power supply. It is an uninterruptible power supply to prevent power abnormality caused by power supply and to always supply stable power.

In general, an unmanned substation is a place where people do not stay resident. In this case, the vacuum breaker (VCB) should be turned on, and the motor should be stopped when the drainage water level is above a certain level (90%). The system according to the present invention, if a problem occurs in the system, such as a circuit breaker fault generator, a motor level level error, motor winding temperature error, motor bearing temperature error, voltage error, current error, etc. to the administrator using the SMS device 260 Voice or text message tells you this. Furthermore, since the unmanned substation 20 is capable of real-time communication with the manned substation 10 through the network modem 240 and is capable of managing and controlling the unmanned substation in the manned substation, when a person operates only a conventional unmanned substation, It can solve the problem that it is difficult to grasp the operation information of the substation normally because it does not reside. Visiting unmanned substations by real-time management and storage of various information (current, voltage, leakage current, temperature, vacuum breaker (VCB) status, motor status, drainage level, rainfall / temperature / humidity) This can be easily managed without checking it. In addition, since it is difficult to manage both substations in a manned substation with a monitor, the function of notifying an alarm text or voice through an SMS device of an unmanned substation solves the disadvantage that occurs when only a manned substation is operated. Integrated and unmanned substations can maximize convenience and efficiency.

The environmental management button is in charge of the overall management of the management system, and the communication check button is for checking the communication status with each SSP. In S / S, you can control a motor at a remote location (SSP).

On the other hand, the alarm method using the voice is an alarm through the speaker 13 when a failure occurs, such as overload or when the set value is exceeded or less than the external input signal of the system. At this time, (1) Main VCB was cut off by voice. (2) The pump motor VCB is cut off. (3) No1 drainage level became more than 90%. (4) No2 drainage level became more than 90%. You can output it by

The algorithm as shown in FIG. 3 is based on the manned substation of the system according to the present invention, and the overall control process is performed. First, when the initial power is turned on, the CPU and the chip are initialized (S30), and it is determined whether or not the key is input (S31). At this time, if there is a key input, the system check is performed after processing the input key. If no key is input, the system check is performed immediately. The check on the system may be to check the voltage, current, phase, the image of the vacuum circuit breaker (VCB), or to check the operating state (water level, temperature) of the motor (S32, S33). The process (S30, S31, S32, S33) is carried out separately in an unmanned substation. The data according to the system check result is not only data of the manned substation itself, but also data according to the same process in the unmanned substation using Ethernet (WEB). Data on the system check made in the manned substation and the unmanned substation is calculated / processed by the processing unit (MPU) (S25), and the result is displayed on the display device made of the graphic LCD based on this, and the error is checked ( S34, S35). If an error signal is caught, it is first determined whether the cause is due to a communication problem with an unmanned substation. If there is no error signal or the abnormality is due to a communication failure, the communication unit returns to the initial state after requesting confirmation of the communication state (S36). , S37, S38). If it is recognized that the error signal of the system is irrelevant to the communication problem, a process (S39) is performed to determine whether there is an abnormality for each part of the system, such as the motor itself or the water level of the motor. Manage the entire system at one of the substations. In an unmanned substation, when an abnormality is detected separately, an overall system control and management is performed through a process of sending an alarm text or a voice to an administrator using an SMS device (S40).

In addition to these algorithms, the attendant substation allows the administrator to visit the unmanned substation periodically to check the system. In this case, all situation information is monitored daily and informed through the speaker, which maximizes the convenience and efficiency of management. Can be. The present invention is an artificial intelligence system in which manned substations and unmanned substations independently determine and act on their own, and operate in a complementary concept, thereby preventing the risk of power waste problems.
