188112 - Signal testing strategy for the Automation of auxiliary systems

TenneT is responsible for the 900 MW grid connection projects DolWin5 to connect the relevant offshore wind farms to the associated HVDC offshore substations DolWin Epsilon. For operation/working and for safety reasons signal testing strategy of the auxiliary systems on the platform and the substation have to work. For this, TenneT has the responsibility for the health, safety and the environment to produce a working automated auxiliary system that can monitors the platform systems, communicates to the land station and to main SCADA system. After the successful commissioning of the signal testing of the auxiliary systems, the project DolWin5 shall be handed over to the operations department. In order to align de development of the system with the already existing SCADA system we need to validate the communication of all the auxiliary systems.
