Today it is hard to imagine the operation of power network and its facilities without the control systems such as EMS/SCADA/DAS. In KEPCO, data links to the upper layer of control system (SCABA) is required to launched DAS project lately, in terms of the needs of saving cost for the data gathering facilities (RTU) in the substation that previously equipped SCADA RTU. In this Paper we researched the circumstance of the KEPCO SCADA systems for data link and present the scheme of the data link between DAS and SCADA.

Wind energy is currently the fastest growing source of renewable energy used for electrical generation around world. Wind farms are adding a significant amount of electrical generation capacity. The increase in the number of wind farms has led to the need for more effective operation and maintenance procedures. Condition Monitoring System(CMS) can be used to aid plant owners in achieving these goals. In this work, systematic design procedure for artificial neural network based normal behavior model which can be applied for fault detection of various devices is proposed. Furthermore, to verify the design method SCADA(Supervisor Control and Data Acquisition) data from 850kW wind turbine system installed in Beaung port were utilized.

It is impossible to take the instant action in the distribution system When fault occures in a substation because operation of the substation and the distribution system are separated. However the power system automation has been studying about unity operation and co-operation between SCADA and DAS(Distribution Automation System). In this paper proposes a new algorithm of efficiency restoration using a outage load switching to a healthy MTR a fault occurrence at a MTR in united system between DAS and SCADA. In addtion, proposed algorithm includes a outage restoration method which keeps MTR optimal capacity with reorganization of distribution network in case it can not restore outage state loads caused by shortage of healthy MTR remain capacity. In case that proposed sequence still can not complete restoration, this paper suggests a efficiency outage restoration with objective function included priority in outage loads. In the case studies, the proposed algorithm have been verified in 2 MTR and 3 MTR substation

네트웍 모델러(Network Modeler)는 EMS 시스템에서 전력 네크워크 토폴로지(Network Topology)를 입력하기 위한 도구이다. 네트워크 모델러는 토폴로지 정보를 입력하여 모델을 생성하고 변경하는 일과 네트워크 다이어그램을 생성하는 일 등을 처리한다. 모델을 생성하기 위해 계통요소를 나타내는 심벌을 마우스로 움직여 화면에 배치하고 각 요소의 파라미터를 설정하며 작성된 전력계통 구성이 올바른지 검사하는 기능도 수행한다. 네트워크 모델러는 주로 EMS에서 사용되었고 SCADA 시스템에서는 사용되지 않았으나, 최근 개발되고 있는 SCADA 시스템은 네트워크 모델러를 함께 포함하여 시스템의 기능을 향상시키고 있다. 그러나 기존의 Network Modeler가 EMS 시스템 개발 벤더에 따라 다른 데이터 구조를 가지고 있어서 데이터의 상호 운용성이 떨어지고, 입력방법에 있어서도 자동화 및 자료 연계가 미흡하여 관리에 많은 시간이 소요되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 CIM 기반으로 정의된 데이터 모델을 사용자가 그래픽 다이어그램을 이용하여 쉽게 네트워크 토폴로지를 정의하도록 하고, 입력정보의 상호 운영성이 향상된 CIM 기반 Network Modeler를 설계한 내용을 설명하도록 한다.

Critical infrastructure (CI) such as the electrical grid, transportation systems and water resource systems are controlled by Industrial Control and SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) networks. During the last few years, cyber attackers have increasingly targeted such CI systems. This is of great concern because successful attacks have wide ranging impact and can cause widespread destruction and loss of life. As a result, there is a critical requirement to develop enhanced algorithms and tools to detect cyber threats for SCADA networks. Such tools have key differences with the tools utilized to detect cyber threats in regular IT networks. This paper discusses key factors which differentiate network security for SCADA networks versus regular IT networks. The paper also presents various approaches used for SCADA security and some of the advancements in the area.

Distributed Network Protocol Version 3.0 (DNP3.0) is the communication protocol developed for the interoperability between a RTU and a central control station of SCADA in the power utility industry. In this paper DNP3.0 is implemented by using HDL with FPGA and C program on Hitachi H8/532 processor. DNP3.0 is implemented from physical layer to network layer in hardware level to reduce the computing load on a CPU. Finally, the ASIC for DNP3.0 has been manufactured from Hynix Semiconductor. The commercial feasibility of the hardware through the communication test with ASE2000 and DNP Master Simulator is performed. The developed protocol becomes one of IP, and can be used to implement SoC for the terminal device in SCADA systems. Also, the result can be applicable to various industrial controllers because it is implemented in HDL.

TETRA(TErrestrial Trunked RAdio) is wireless communication system generally adopted to public network and backbone network, as the technology of Trunked Radio System specified by ETSI(European Telecommunications Standards Institute) and currently adopted to the Electric Power IT Backbone Network in Korea. DLMS(Device Language Message Specification) is used in order to meter an electric measuring instrument value. In this paper, DLMS Server and Client simulator are used based on Window operating system. The multi-functional gateway, which transforms the communications based on RS-232C between DLMS Server Simulator and Client Simulator to the one based on TETRA PEI(Peripheral Equipment Interface), is developed such that DLMS SCADA(Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) system is constructed based on TETRA.

There is increasing use of common commercial operation system and standard PCs to control industrial production systems, and cyber security threat for industrial facilities have emerged as a serious problem. Now these network connected ICS(Industrial Control Systems) stand vulnerable to the same threats that the enterprise information systems have faced and they are exposed to malicious attacks. In particular Stuxnet is a computer worm targeting a specific industrial control system, such as a gas pipeline or power plant and in theory, being able to cause physical damage. In this paper we present an overview of the general configuration and cyber security threats of a SCADA and investigate the attack tree analysis to identify and assess security vulnerabilities in SCADA for the purpose of response to cyber attacks in advance.
