The main objective of AFAS is to use the information available during faulty scenarios for efficient use of resources to quickly respond to the event and monitor the operations of protective devices to improve system reliability. To achieve this, AFAS is committed to: Efficiently use resources and data: the installation of new equipment should be minimized to increase the economic benefit of this system. Available data from existing infrastructure should be used to the greatest extent possible, using the same data for multiple functionalities. The different possible sources from which data can be acquired will pose challenges, as each data recorder has its own sampling rate, timestamp and proprietary format. The AFAS system must be able to relate all this data and subsequently extract the relevant information for analysis. To make the most of the data, the results of the same analysis can be presented to different users along the energy system hierarchy, such that only relevant details are transmitted. Another important factor to keep in mind is the time it takes to process the data; as it will be proportional to the complexity of the system and the number of datasets to be considered. You can prioritize which data set to consider and run important applications by allowing information to be sent as and when required, rather than waiting for all applications to process. Improve system operation: any disruption to normal system operation must be reported and analyzed by AFAS. Even if there is no interruption in supply but faulty conditions exist, it is appropriate to recall them. The system should ensure the correct functioning of the protection system and induce the respective operators to change any settings deemed necessary by the analysis. Reports should be communicated to the personnel concerned, informing them of the status of the system and any corrective measures to be taken. This will vary depending on the authority and area of ​​interest. For example: following an event, the lineman in the substation must resolve the problem and restore the interrupting element as soon as possible. The substation engineer will analyze the operation of the protective devices and change the settings if necessary. Personnel sitting in a cargo dispatch center will identify the equipment outage and take the necessary actions to keep the system in a normal operating state.
