Intellirupter Parameterization and Commissioning in the Medium Voltage Network of a Primary Distribution Feeder

In this article, the commissioning of an Intellirupter by S&C Electric Company in the medium voltage network of a primary distribution feeder belonging to the Electric Company Azogues, is explained. The feeder 124, operating at 22kV with a maximum demand of 2.04MVA, has been taken as a case study. The commissioning of the equipment was carried out after coordinating protections based on fault parameters, parameterizing the different analog and digital signals to be controlled, and integrating it into the SCADA system of the Electric Company. By implementing this equipment, it is expected to reduce power supply interruption times and improve reliability indices. These results will be reflected in the long term through a comparative analysis with historical FMIK and TTIK indices.
