Throughout the years Eaton has delivered many solutions for automation and control of industrial grids at all voltage levels, integrating generators, uninterruptable power supplies, transfer switches, distribution switchgear, motor control centers, and power factor correction equipment.

Most of the projects include one or more Human Machine Interfaces and upward integration to the plant SCADA or BMS systems.

Every single project meets specific customer requirements, including the following functions:

• generation control
• synchronization
• protection
• load management
• load shedding
• motor management
• alarm and event functions
• accurate data collection
• graphical user interfaces
• SCADA BMS integration

Power system integration solutions built by Eaton’s automation engineers offer many benefits to industrial power system users:

Operational efficiency:

• Efficient utilization of power distribution equipment
• Optimization of energy supply and reduction of losses
• Trending  and benchmarking
   

Safety

• Remote access to status and data through centralized automation systems reduce the need for physical contact with power distribution equipment, reducing potential safety risks, and freeing maintenance personnel to other duties.
   

Uptime

• Time-stamped alarms and sequence-of-events logs help you to identify potential problems and quickly aid the speed of system restoration following a disturbance.
• Redundant automatic configurations improve the reliability of your system.
   

Scalability

• Regardless of whether you need new functionalities or new devices, today's open protocols and converters enable our experts to integrate and expand existing systems of various brands.

Eaton’s vendor-independent power management and solutions maximize power system uptime, optimize the utilization of power distribution equipment and help to identify and prevent problems before you experience an outage.

While the systems remain in control of delivering power to your processes, you enjoy a total system status overview throughout graphical user interfaces.
