• Innovation: Problems to solve• Why SokratesMapConcept? Big Picture / Details• SokratesGroup?• A use Case:

- Innovation Cockpit for Railways- Innovation Cockpit for Innovators: FACES

3

Innovation: Problems to solve?• Extremely complex decision making process• Contribution from each stakeholder is requested• Hard to enlighten the main issues• Challenging to illustrate interrelations between tasks• Problematic to perform a convincing root cause analysis• Tough to get all actionable alternatives considered• Not easy to qualify and quantify the various options• Difficult to measure the impact of the results• Missing effective continuous improvement process• Improving safety while reducing costs

Hold the Big Picture based on Details

Innovation: Problems to solve• The complexity of running systems is enormous• Changing a running system needs insights and overview• Visualization with the SokratesMapConcept maximize

individual and collective intelligence• Integrated pretests of collateral use and damage of innovation

is a part of an integrated governance• Testing the economic impact of innovation needs overview

SokratesGroup helps to collect know-how and to take innovative usage of it.• Partners are big and small companies, governments, universities, individuals, groups.• Goal is using the collective knowledge of the group to solve problems.• Main instruments are methods, which improve individual and collective insight and

will provide overview for the participants.• The main part of library of the map and the apps is open for use and scaling up the

individual and collective intelligence.

BoD – Top Management

The SokratesMapConcept uses information from existing management tools and generates massive cost savings. Organizations are entitled to expect a productivity increase of 3-10% in the first year - while at the same time increasing employee’s motivation. On top of that the liability risk of the management is largely reduced.

Through visualization with zoom and drill-down functionality, time and money wasting sources are identified much faster and can be act upon. Your organization will save money and become stronger because more options for improvements will be analyzed. The management expertise thanks to this tools will be recognized among employees, customers and the media.

Ticket to Dispatching Centre: Ph-G fault on line # 2,

at 12.5 km due to Crane Contact,

Protection relay # 7 failed to detect the fault on Distance Protection

Why automation?• Power system gets more stressed• Getting focus in the most important events• Reduce outage duration and power system vulnerability• Take advantage of operational data (SCADA) and non-operational data (IED)

• Malfunctions due to accidental changes in relay settings • Detect mistake after commissioning like phase permutation, loose

contact, polarity inversion of CT and VT – Latent faults may go unnoticed

• Avoid repetitive work, retrieving files, converting files formats, simple calculations

• More cooperation among personnel in different areas

• Fast recovery change positively public perception• Regulator demands for information from utilities are increasing

Benefits• Improving power system performance: cost of power not

delivered and reduction of restoration time

• Efficiency and response time of the company personnel: time of analysis vs quality of outcome

• Operational statistics: reporting to regulatory bodies and internal asset management tasks

• Integration of data from many points should call for standardization efforts

FACES™ offers significant advantages …

for operations, maintenance and protection personnel and help answering the questions:

t

• What are the most critical events ?• Where or what is the problem?• Can the line be safely returned to service?• Did the right relays respond the right way?• … are there any hidden wrong settings ?

Detect hidden failures• Inconsistency between Main and Backup protection

• Detection of contacts discrepancy between circuit breaker poles

• Wrong relay reset time

• Auto-reclose initiated whereas the fault involves another phase during the dead time

• Wrong behavior of the transfer scheme (teleprotection)

NERC: protection relays are involved in about 75% of all major disturbances. Relay hidden failures causes relay malfunctions and blackouts in the past. IEEE 13 DEC 2010: ISBN: 978-1-4244-5938-4

Who is concerned?

Operating personnel are responsible for returning to service as much of the electric system as practical within the shortest time possible.

Operator

Maintenance personnel are charged with repairing and returning outages equipment to service.
