Original Abstract

This paper deals with hardware-in-the-loop simulation of the distribution network, which is equipped with the on-load tap changer on the HV / MV transformer. This tap changer in the simulation is controlled from a real physical external device - the multi-functional intelligent electronic device REX 640 from ABB. This device receives and processes the sampled meas-ured values of voltages and currents. Based on these values, an instruction to switch the trans-former tap is then given back into the simulation. All communication between the simulator and the external device is provided using the IEC 61850 industrial communication protocol. The pa-per summarizes both the benefits of hardware-in-the-loop simulations and the possibilities of us-ing intelligent electronic devices and data communication in distribution systems.
