    ABSTRACT
    Industry has made some of the cities to associate with the highly developed cities where SCADA has gained
    its importance. Its remote system for power management promises to reduce failure rectification time by over 60 per
    cent. Delhiites have long suffered problems in electricity distribution. However, their worries now seem to be almost
    over with industries managing the supervisory act by acquiring data (SCADA).
    KEY WORDS: SCADA, Electricity.
    1. INTRODUCTION
    SCADA is a giant leap in automating the total process of electricity management. It integrates geographical
    information system (GIS), and distribution management system this will cause enormous quality in operation of the
    system.
    To make a reliable and secured and efficient supply of power, the automated SCADA and GIS systems have
    been put in place. The entire electrical network is being mapped through GIS. This along with SCADA is leading to
    quicker fault locations and speedy redressal of faults. The management system, utilizes GIS, to locate areas that are
    affected and allocate the maintenance team to achieve a speedy response
    What does SCADA do: A SCADA system is used for supervising a chemical, physical or transport process?
    Integrated with power system management application functions, it provides an integrated distribution management
    system to improve the reliability of power supplies, manage the load effectively, reduce restoration times and increase
    the utilization efficiency of the network equipment.
    The functions of SCADA are:
     Real-time data exchange
     Real-time data processing
     Tagging
     Supervisory control
     Switching orders
     Load shedding and restoration.
    Its DMS functions are:
     Operational monitoring
     Fault isolation and system restoration
     Variable reactive power (VAR) control.
     Voltage control
     Distribution power flow
     Load forecasting
     Calculation of quality service indices.
    The Concept: The term ‘SCADA’ usually refers to a centralized unit that completely supervises the entire area. The
    centralized site is supervised and controlled automatically by a remote terminal unit (RTU). Supervising capability
    is limited to Host control functions
    Data’s that are captures are initialized at the terminal unit and logic control unit. They contain values taken
    from meters and the status of the device are communicated .Controlling operations of the data are analyzed and
    modified by human machine interface. It is authorized to decide factors related to supervisory act .These informations
    are essential that may be required to supersede controls issued by terminal and logic control units.( SCADA is an
    integration of HMI, controllers, input/output (I/O) devices, networks, software, etc.)
    Human – machine interface.HMI assembles data from the rationale controllers or remote units utilizing by means
    of some type of specialized strategy, and consolidates and configurations the data to perform more operations
    naturally. A refined interface may be utilized for the database to give moment inclining, indicative information,
    planned upkeep methodology, logistic data, and elaborated schematics for a specific sensor or machine, and master
    framework inconvenience shooting aides.
    Hardware solutions: For SCADA usage, commercial enterprises has worked with a percentage of the best names
    in the business including:
     ABB (Sweden) for fundamental SCADA innovation and essential hardware adjustment.

     Barco Control System (Belgium) for substantial video screens.
     Honeywell Automation for essential hardware adjustment.
     Reliance Infocomm for fiber-optic correspondence.
     HECL for move down correspondence framework utilizing V-Sat correspondence.

    SCADA arrangements regularly have conveyed control framework segments. Utilization of "efficient"
    RTUs or PLC, which are prepared to do self-rulingly executing straightforward rationale forms without including
    the expert PC, is expanding. A functional programming dialect, IEC 61131-3 is used for programming which keep
    running on these RTUs and PLCs. This permits SCADA framework specialists to perform both the outline and usage
    of a system to be executed on a RTU or PL perform both the design and implementation of a program to be executed
    on an RTU or PLC.
    Framework segments: The essential segments of the framework are
     Multiple RTUs
     Master station and HMI PCs.
     Communication base.
    Remote terminal unit: The RTU is attached with physical gear and peruses status information. For example, the
    open/shut condition from a switch or a valve, quantities like pressure, stream, voltage or current. By sending signs
    to gear, the unit can control the switching operations.
    It can read computerized information and simple estimation information, to convey advanced summons or
    simple set points.
    A vital piece of the SCADA usage are alerts. Alert is a computerized indication point which indicates the
    quality "typical" or 'caution'. Alerts are given when their criteria’s are met. The SCADA administrator's consideration
    is attracted towards the piece of the framework requiring attention.
    Master station: It refers to the servers and their corresponding programming concepts which in turn is used to
    transfer information to the hardware units and then to the HMI programming running on workstations in the control
    area, or at other places. In littler SCADA frameworks, the Master station might have only a PC. In bigger SCADA
    frameworks, it might incorporate various servers, conveyed programming applications and debacle recuperation
    locales.
    Correspondence base and techniques: A definitive motivation behind the correspondence capacity in procedure
    observing and control is to accomplish most extreme framework consistency. The information transmission system
    might bolster updated solid and proficient data throughput specifically for short and dire messages with restricted
    transfer speed.
    SCADA frameworks have generally utilized blends of radio and direct serial or modem connections that
    meet the necessities. Industry SCADA framework depends on fiber-optics and V-Sat to meet the prerequisites.
    System used for SCADA communication include:
     Metallic cable
     Two-way land mobile radio
     Trunked radio
     Multiple address system
     Spread spectrum
     Microwave
     Satellite
     Cellular telephony
     Power line carrier
     Fiber optics
    Benefits of SCADA system: The benefits of SCADA include monitoring and control from one place. The various
    trends and reports can be generated from the SCADA system.
    Single view of entire network: In the HMI, the grids are represented by single-line diagrams. Similarly, over-view
    diagrams are prepared that show the entire network connectivity. These can be viewed on a large screen. This helps
    the operator in finding alternate paths in case of a fault in a particular section of the network.
    Remote monitoring: Acquiring data at the central place helps in close monitoring of the system and fast decision
    making. As the data is available at one place, it gives a much clearer view of the system performances and any
    discrepancy can be removed. Also, with this centralized data acquisition, preventive actions can be planned and
    implemented.
    Reduced outage downtime: As the operator at the central control room is immediately intimated through alarms
    and events of the SCADA system, the outages can be restored faster, thereby reducing the downtime.

    Better voltage quality: As the voltage parameter is one of the telemetered parameter, any discrepancy, viz, low
    voltage or high voltage, can be improved and a good-quality voltage profile maintained.
    Pinpointing and isolation of faults: The DMS software module identifies the exact location of faults and suggests
    alternate paths for the affected areas, which can be restored immediately. This reduces the number of customers
    affected due to a fault.
    More accurate information: As the data of the entire network is available at the control centre, with very precise
    information of the location and type of fault that has occurred, the customer can be fed with accurate information of
    the nature of fault and probable time of restoration.
    Reduced technical losses: Input energy from the DTL and the energy received at the grid station are measured and
    the difference of the energy is known as transmission losses. Once the data is available at the control centre, steps
    are taken accordingly to reduce the losses.
    2. CONCLUSION
    Industrial automation technology is certainly progressing at a fast and furious pace, but not without caution.
    No discussion on trends in the automation space can be complete without speaking of the security concerns therein.
    Machines often work at such high speeds that it becomes difficult for humans to intervene and bring them
    to a halt. This is especially so in the case of processes that gains momentum very swiftly. Should something go
    wrong, these also race at an equal or greater speed towards catastrophe! The Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and
    Bhopal disasters are examples.
    Therefore building sufficient security into automated systems is a perpetual challenge, given that security
    measures need to be as sophisticated as the processes and machines they monitor. So we must always keep in mind
    that automation needs to be trusted only to an extent, and a ‘hand brake’ should be entrusted with the users!
