Abstract: A method and device for reducing measurement error/s is provided. The method receives a file by an engineering tool from a system configurator tool and parses the file to identify a value associated with a transformer setting for a process bus device. The method fetches information from installation data to identify the value when the value is not identified in the file and stores the value in the engineering tool when the value is identified in the file or in the information. The method marks the value as a missing value to visually notify a technician when the value is not identified in the information or the file. The method publishes the value at a remote database for process bus subscriber device/s.

Abstract: A method for avoiding function disablements of intelligent electronic units IEDs that are connected in a local network which has at least two timing units. One of the timing units assumes an active grandmaster role as a synchronization source while the other timing units remain in their slave state and synchronize with the timing unit in the grandmaster role. When one of the timing units changes from the slave state to the grandmaster role, a pre-synchronization message is used to notify all IEDs in the local network whether and, if applicable, with which previous grandmaster timing unit the present grandmaster timing unit was synchronized. This avoids a disablement of the function of the IEDs that generate or process data streams whose samples have been acquired in sync with the previous grandmaster timing unit.

Abstract: A method identifies a location of a fault on a faulty line of an electrical power supply network having a plurality of lines, a plurality of inner nodes, and at least three outer nodes. The outer nodes each bound a line and are provided with measurement devices which are used to measure high-frequency current and/or voltage signals. To locate faults, one of the outer nodes is selected as the starting node for the search for the fault location. Starting from the starting node, paths to the other outer nodes are determined, and that those paths on which the fault location could be located are selected. A line on which the fault location could be located, in principle, is identified for each of the selected paths using the respective times at which the traveling waves arrive, and a potential fault location is determined for the respectively identified line.
