1. Introduction
1.1 Document purpose
This document represents the response by Schneider Electric for the supply of one Monitoring and ControlSystems (M&C systems) for the photovoltaic power plant of To be defined.
To meet the demands set out, Schneider Electric proposes a solution based on an implementation of its standardarchitecture modified if necessary to suit the needs of the To be definedproject.
This modular system based on the most recent technologies, has been specially developed for themonitoring and control of solar power plants. It can be adapted to suit the specific needs of everyplant: The system's structure, together with the expertise of our technical teams, means that
Schneider Electric can offer solutions that are suited to the needs and the demands of all users(bespoke functions, equipment from other vendors, ).
The Monitoring & Control System from Schneider Electric fits into the PV power plant needs by:
Answering to operation requirements of a PV power plant,
Contribution to the maintenance activities,
Checking the efficiency criterias,
Unavailability assessment of PV power plant, Enhancing the reliability of PV power plant.
And also:
Centralizing all of the information available from all of stations,
Monitoring and control components at one or more points,
Historically recording and archiving data, Providing multiple remote accesses.
The response made in our proposal is based on our knowledge and experience of monitoring and control systemsin the PV power plants.
The system is proposed in a standard version that covers all of the requirements of a typical PV power Plant.Should other functions be deemed necessary, then additional options or bespoke functions may be proposed andquoted.

3.6 Data Flows
Three types of data flow are used:
1. ModbusTCP/IP2. DNP33. FTP
The data flows are the following:
The modbus TCP/IP flow is dedicated the real time data flow and for 1 minute data in order to be able to animatethe synoptics of the SCADA and display trends (real time data and 1 minute data). In case of any communicationfailure between the PLC and the SCADA all the data are lost.
Concerning the DNP3 flow, it is dedicated for the alarm and the events. DNP3 is particularly suitable and reliablefor non permanent communications (modem, radio, etc) low bandwidth data exchanges, as they provide highefficiency and robustness in data transfer between SCADA systems and RTU devices. They are basically eventdriven protocols (report by exception, unsolicited messaging, and event management) as compared to traditionalpolling protocols, which help reducing and optimizing data traffic whilst also being efficient for permanentcommunications. All alarms and events are time stamped by the DNP3 module. Moreover in case ofcommunication failure between the PLC and the SCADA, the DNP3 is able to store up to 10000 events and to pushthem to the SCADA when the communication is established.
Finally the FTP flow is dedicated to secured data that have to be stored directly into SQL Data Base. The PLCstores these data into files on its SD Cards and an ftp tool collects them and pushes the data into SQL Tables.More the tool PVDB Engine transfers the alarm table from the SCADA to SQL tables in order to store the alarmsrelated to the PV farm during 20 years.

(**):The SCADA is polling the data from each M340 RTU every 2s for real time data, and every 1minute for one
minute data. The SCADA can also send some set points to the M340 RTU by modbus TCP/IP (Non criticalsetpoint).

3.7 Time Synchronization
In order to consolidate the data (one minute data: average or raw), compare data from one equipment to anotherone and timestamp the alarms, the PLC and the server have to be time synchronised. The time synchronisation ismade by the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to guaranty the synchronisation of the clocks of each system.
The SCADA server will be the NTP server of all equipments of the system. It can find out what the right time is invarious ways including accessing Internet-based Atomic Clocks, using networked timeservers, GPS (The GlobalPositioning System), Radio clocks, and by listening for time broadcasts over a LAN. The way chosen will be relatedto each project.
The time synchronization can be done following two ways:
1. Real time clock2. Software that makes sure your PCs clock tells the right time. It can find out what the right time is in
various ways including accessing Internet-based Atomic Clocks, using networked timeservers,GPS (The Global Positioning System), Radio clocks, and by listening for time broadcasts over aLAN

(*):The M340 RTU calculates a one minute energy from the cumulated energy collected on the device (pleaserefer to chapter 4.3.3.1 Energy meters (delivery only)). However this is the cumulated energy that it stored intoMEA_PVBox from SQL data base. Indeed in case of lost of communication between the PLC and the energymeter, the energy is still cumulating the energy. When the communication is recovered we can estimate minute byminute what has been consumed or produced.
(**):The energy measurements coming from energy meter are cumulated energy. In order to avoid lost of precisionthese data are split into 4 integers (for EM1 and EM2 only not available for auxiliary). Thus the energy meter isable to cumulate up to 9999 9999 9999 9999 Wh. The energy are displayed into REAL format for the real time
data because we dont need precision for displaying data on a synoptic but are stored in a FLOAT format intoSQL to guaranty the precision of the measurement (these data can be used for reporting, performance calculation).
