SCADA Systems

Through a strategic partnership, Hometown Connections and Survalent Technology are helping APPA members deploy innovative SCADA systems for automated, real-time monitoring and control of facilities for electric, water and gas utilities. APPA members may purchase equipment, software and services from Survalent Technology at national group pricing arranged by Hometown Connections.

SCADA for Public Power Utilities
Would you drive your car without checking the instrumentation on your dashboard? Without knowing how fast you are going, how hot the engine is, or how much gas you have left? Why should your utility be any different? You need a SCADA system from Survalent to monitor and improve the performance of your utility.

Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are used to monitor and control generation, transmission and distribution systems. SCADA enables your utility personnel to see on a PC monitor what’s happening on your system in real time.

You’ll use your SCADA system from Survalent to automatically activate switches, re-closers, breakers, and relays; automate fault restoration; display alarms and system maps; obtain data for trend analysis and load forecasting; and much more.

A SmartSCADA Packaged Solution for Your Utility
A true SCADA system for under $30,000. The turnkey SmartSCADA package from Survalent is designed specifically for public power. The package includes hardware, software, project management, training and system commissioning. See reverse for more information.

SCADA Benefits for Public Power
The utility responds much faster and more effectively to emergency situations because data is captured and analyzed before, during, and after each event.

Utility is alerted instantly to equipment failures at non-manned substations.

Operators respond quickly to alarms and perform shutdowns/re-routing without sending personnel to the scene.

Remote alarming brings savings by reducing number of required shift operators.

The automating of functions such as hold-offs and load & voltage charting brings many additional efficiencies.

When a customer calls to report a power quality problem, the point of origin for a voltage sag is captured immediately.

The layout of circuits via Graphical User Interface for field personnel increases response times dramatically.
