1.2 Problem Statements
Each of the projects has their own problem to be discussing before starting the project. By stating the problem statement it easy to know the purpose of doing
this project and what are the problem to be solved. Below are the problem statements for this project.
• Currently, all the electrical panels used by the consumers are designed in
conventional way, if any problem arises from the supply or from the equipments connected to the panel, it is solved by manual way
• This panel is designed to function in an automated manner instead of
manual practice
1.3 Project Objectives
Before conducting or doing the project, the objectives of the project are the main focus in this project. At the last of this report from the conclusion the objective
are stated where it succeed or not. Below are the objectives of this project. •
To design and fabricate an automated electrical panel using SCADA and RTU.
• Study about the equipment characteristic.
• To design the wiring diagram, installing all the equipment to the panel.
• To operate and test the panel with SCADA and RTU and control the load
connected to it.
1.4 Scope of Project
This project report consists of five chapters, chapter one is introduction, chapter two literature review, chapter three methodology, chapter four results and
discussion and chapter five is the conclusion. Chapter one will be explain about an automated Electrical Distribution panel and its applications. This chapter also states
the problem for the project, objective and scope of the project report. Chapter two will discuss about the electrical panel and the equipment that
will be use in this project, there are eight important material including the hardware and software will be discuss in this chapter. First equipment about the miniature
circuit breaker MCB, second equipment relays, third equipment bulb, fourth equipment is ICP-Controller i-7188XG and its characteristic, fifth equipment is input
output module i-7058D and its characteristic, sixth is about DC power supply for the controller, seventh and eighth is about the programming part, there are SCADA and
RTU. Chapter three is the methodologies for the whole processes of project from
PSM I until PSM II. In project methodology will explain the whole project procedure from starting finding and research the topic until choose the best circuit. For PSM 1
is about the analysis according to the panel and also the equipment. It is necessary to know because if the wrong rate of material being use, the panel cannot run smoothly.
Then in PSM 2 is about installation and testing part. In chapter four is discussing about the project result, this chapter consist of
analysis of the panel that being use nowadays and its type. In this chapter also the panel characteristic will be discuss and also its principle. Finally the last is chapter
five about the conclusion of the whole project report and suggestions.
CHAPTER 2
