Abstract

At the end of 1993 the first dispatcher training simulator of the Hungarian electric power industry began operation in the regional dispatcher centre of the North Hungarian Electricity Distribution Company (EMASZ KDSZ). The simulator performs discrete event-driven simulation of the network, the protection arrangements and the telemetry system. Its main purpose is to help the dispatchers to cope with complicated, rarely occurring disturbances in the electrical network. During a training session the trainee uses the same type of workstation as in the online system. The instructor´s man-machine interface is implemented in DECWindows using the colour graphics terminal of a VAXstation 3100.<>
