ABB�s MIDAS Library technology released Swiss power and automation technology group ABB has released a new technology that is designed to help engineers easily resolve electrical problems in mines right from their control room.The new technology is called the System 800xA mining integrated distribution automation system (MIDAS) Library and features an enhanced substation control and monitoring platform that provides the team with real-time analytics including graphical status interlocks and measurement and phasor diagrams.The system is particularly innovative because the operator can monitor and gain access to the entire electrical infrastructure of the mine from a single workstation and a single software package.The company said in a statement: The MIDAS Library also makes it simple for engineers to deal with intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) for protection and control of the electrical system. A right-click of the mouse brings up a full suite of technical information including manuals information on the devices parameters and its role in the wider system. And as the IEDs can be connected to the automation system by Ethernet one team can control substations in many different and distant locations.
