Abstract :
In this study, electrical distribution automation system (DAS) at low voltage (LV) to solve the problems experienced in the presence of the power supply cut off due to the line under repair or fault. Fault detection, fault identification, fault isolation and fault clearing tasks been done using DAS solution technique. The system implemented in this project operates and controls the equipment connected at the substation and distribution line/zone/pole remotely. The equipment is divided into two types, one type is installed at the substation and the other type is located to the distribution line pole/or distribution board of the consumers. All the equipment is linked by communication line connected between the substation and the controlled zone; all equipment is controlled and operated remotely to operate and control the distribution system and to communicate each other while sitting in the control room at the sub-station.
