OMICRON

OMICRON's Scheme Testing Tools is a suite designed to test various logic schemes found in modern relays and IEDs. It consists of CommPro and LogicPro for line protection logic scheme testing and DLogicPro for distribution protection logic scheme testing. These tools eliminate the complexity of testing these schemes and provide four distinct operational benefits:

Benchmark Testing

Using standardized tests and a given set of device settings, the test engineer can evaluate the complex logic of different protective relays, or IEDs and how they interact within the communication-based or logic-based scheme chosen. This permits direct comparison of different manufacturers' implementation of the same logic schemes, making acceptance testing much easier.

Training Tool

The fault and logic sequence of the selected scheme can be reviewed through the Animation Mode. The Test Objectives and Hardware Requirements views provide information about the different stages executed by the CMC system and the fault simulation utilized.

Single Scheme Test

The software performs several essential tests, which can functionally check the relay's response while operating in a communication-based or logic-based scheme mode. These are based on user defined line parameters, fault location, and time settings, which reflect the actual application in use.

Multiple Scheme Tests

This feature allows several schemes to be tested in sequence, prompting the test engineer to change the communication scheme setting or logic option in the device, if necessary, to continue the tests. Printing options of all relevant settings, test objectives and automatic test results are available..
