- the invention may be described as a method to supervise and control an electrical power generation, transmission and distribution system, including a system of electrical distribution equipment preferably connected to a medium voltage distribution network.
- the invention is, in practice, carried out by means of a computer program product as described in patent claim 33.
- the computer program product is also summarily described here as comprising an HTTP server included in a controller means, sending data according to http protocol over a TCP/IP connection.
- the data is included in a html document, that may also include a URL link to an applet.
- the controller means is located in the electric power network.

- a Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) is commonly located in generating stations and transmission substations.
- FIG 2 shows an architecture for a Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) 20.
- RTU Remote Terminal Unit
- This includes a RTU software 25, a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server 21 and a RTU hardware 28.
- the HTTP server 21 includes a server application SA 22, an applet, A, 23 and HTML code 24.
- the RTU software 25 includes an Application Programming Interface (API) 26 constituting the interface between the RTU application 27 and the process interface 30, an RTU Application 27 and an operating system 29.
- the RTU hardware 28 includes at least one communications interface 31 and at least one process interface for data acquisition and control 30.

Communication links are shown in Figure 2 as arrows between blocks such as that between Server Application 22 through RTU Application 27 to and Data Acquisition API 26.
- http Hypertext Transfer Protocol
- TCP/IP Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
- Sensor information from the feeder system is available via an interface such as process interface 30.
- the acquired data received via process interface 30 from sensor means associated with a controller means such as an RTU is made available to the RTU Application 27 through a known type of computer programming function called an API 26.
- sensor data from the Feeder system may be acquired by any software or control application running in the RTU which is capable of interacting with a known or standard API.
- RTU Application 27 is a control application running in a controller means that is capable of generating signals to control equipment such as switches, breakers, transformer tap changers and such like in the Feeder system.
- the acquired data is also made available to the Server Application 22 via the API 26 as well as the RTU Application.
- a part of the acquired data may also be processed in the RTU application or some other function of the controller means to calculate one or more parameters or characteristics based in part on the acquired data.
- the controller means is arranged with calculation means to calculate one or parameters based at least in part on the acquired data. Data calculated dependent on the acquired data may also be made available to the Server Application 22.
- the HTTP server 21 of RTU 20 is accessed by a second computer, which is typically part of a central control system, and the HTTP server 21 makes an HTML document available to the second computer.
- the HTML document contains an active link, such as a URL, to the Applet A, 23.
- Applet 23 provides a Graphic User Interface (GUI) display on the computer screen of the second computer, displaying a representation of the supervised or controlled unit, displaying values of characteristics such as voltage, current, temperature, and states of functions such as position of switches, breakers, tap changers and other relevant information from the RTU.
- GUI Graphic User Interface

- the GUI display provided on the second or central computer system by the Applet 23 may be manipulated and changes made to the GUI display. Clicking on a switchable function such as a representation of a given switch, for example, results in a signal being sent via the Server Application 22 of the HTTP server 21 of the controller means.
- the Server Application 22 accepts the signal and produces in turn a signal which is sent to the RTU Application 27.
- the RTU Application then generates a control signal.
- the control signal is sent from the application 27 via the API 26 to the process interface 30, thus opening or closing the given switch in the Feeder system according to the signal sent by the Applet 23.
- a representation of a slider, dial, graph or other readout representation may be manipulated on the GUI display provided by Applet 23 to adjust the value of a voltage or load or other relevant characteristic.
- a figure may be input to an input field on the GUI display via a keyboard, or selected using a mouse click.
- the Applet 23 sends a signal as described above with the result that the Application 27 of the RTU generates a signal to cause an adjustment to the value of the characteristic in the degree indicated by the adjustment of the representation in the Applet.
- Figure 3 shows a flow chart with a client 35 and a server 36.
- the block diagram shows steps for monitoring and/or executing an instruction (step labelled execute) for a given characteristic represented on the GUI display by the Applet 23.
- the client 35 is an executing example of the Applet 23.
- the server 36 is a server process, which should not be confused with a server machine or the HTTP server, and would be running on the equipment in the substation, for example, in the controller means such as a RTU.
- the block sequence for the client 35 includes a step labelled change which checks for a change in status of the characteristic in question.
- the detailed operation of the example of Applet 23 shown includes a user input stage and a change step. If the user input represents a change with respect to the current status, a command is sent to the server, either as a Remote Method Invocation (RMI) , a Remote Procedure Call (RPC) , or other means of executing a remote command. The internal status of the Applet is then refreshed.

- the display includes a representation of a current measurement 45b and a voltage measurement 46b.
- a measurement of temperature 47b shows a reading of a temperature inside transformer 47a.
- the information about a characteristic of the system such as temperature 47b in transformer 47a allows an operator to judge if a temperature of the oil coolant in the transformer, for example, shows that the load on the transformer may or may not be increased.
- the displayed electrical characteristics such as voltage 45b and current 46b indicate the state of that part of the network.
- Fused feeders 48a,b,c,d indicate whether the fuses into the consumer lines are intact or have blown.
