Switching order to take transformer T2 out of service?

Follow switching programme SP-12: open CB-204, then isolator 204-1, then confirm on the panel. Steps 4 to 9 cover earthing.

Isolation steps for feeder 3?

Open breaker, open isolators, earth the line and verify, per procedure 7.

Who must authorise this switching?

The control engineer on duty, per section 2 of SP-12. Record the authorisation number before step 1.

The problem

Substations are often shielded or remote, with no mobile coverage inside. Switching programmes are long documents, and finding the right step under pressure takes time. A missed step is a safety risk, so crews need the exact procedure, not a summary from memory.

Who uses it

Substation engineers and switching operators, working from your approved switching programmes.

What you train it on

  • Switching programmes
  • Interlock rules
  • Single-line diagrams
  • Earthing procedures

How it works on the device

  1. 1

    Trained on your switching programmes

    Approved programmes, interlock rules and site drawings for each substation.

  2. 2

    Step by step on site

    The engineer asks by voice and hears the exact step, with the programme reference.

  3. 3

    Only approved versions

    New programmes reach the device over the air once your engineers approve them.

Why it runs on the device

  • Works at remote sites

    Answers come from the device, so substations, lines and pipelines without coverage make no difference.

  • Your procedure, quoted

    Every answer cites the programme and step it comes from.

  • Hands free

    Steps are read aloud while the engineer works.
