Direct transfer trip (DTT) signals are sent between substations and remote distributed generation sites for critical high-speed tripping of circuit breakers on either side of a feeder to ensure reliability. This webinar highlights a novel approach to provide DTT signals reliably between sites using wireless cellular communications systems. This novel approach is designed to provide a cost-effective, yet reliable and smart, DTT enhancement. Join Informa/T&D World as they host Siemens to discuss:
- How DTT can be used for improvement in security in addition to resiliency
- Why traditional DTT is no longer enough
- Methods for testing a cellular vs. fiber communications system design for DTT
- Real-life case study from Central Virginia Electric Cooperative
