CE 1.2 Project Background
CE 1.2.1 Characteristics of the project
A Power Management System or PMS helps to take the charge for controlling any
particular electrical system. This power management system helps to make the electrical
system extremely safe and secured. When the consumption of power is much larger than the
capacity of power production, the technique of load shedding is significantly utilized for the
purpose of avoiding of blackouts. In this project, my aim was to provide automation for
distributed electrical system. Our system included Programmable Logic Controller or PLC
with an enhanced S7-300 Series PLC central unit CPU 315 - 2DP and associated digital input
& output modules, which directly interfaces field signals of 24V DC. I had even executed the
Communication from the PLC to the PC running SCADA by Profibus communication. I even
aided the set of monitoring as well as control functions. Hence, in the project, I have
significantly developed the compact and complete design of a power management system and
hence evaluated the efficiency of the desired outcome.

CE 1.2.2 Objectives developed for the project
During the project of Power Management System, the entire designing part required
higher constants that can easily increase the effectiveness and operation. I have even found
out the fact that the utilization of programmable logic controller can subsequently provide a
better efficiency. Thus, in the project my objective was to develop a design while providing a
better automation to the distributed electrical system that I have selected. Therefore, for
completing this project with higher efficiency as well as priority, I have successfully
developed the following objectives:
 To review and analyze several methods of power management that is efficient.
 To propose an appropriate design for the Power Management System.
 To check the different forms of outputs in previous researches.
 To review the output and check with the desired outcome.
 To use SCADA station with higher version of computer and associated software of
WinCC.
 To check whether there is a continuous flow of current to the load.
CE 1.2.3 My area of work
Before starting the work in this project, I have researched about the power
management system that helps to provide automation to any specific distribution electrical
system. The practical part of the project was started only after studying and reviewing the
past studies on the basis of power management system to understand and evaluate the
characteristics. My major area of work was simply to propose a compact design for the
system. I even had to follow all the standard operating processes for successfully
understanding the operations of electrical system. My other important areas of work were to
participate within the usage as well as advancement of the complete computerized and
digitalized management system.

CE 1.2.5 My responsibilities throughout the project
In this project, I have successfully worked to manage the completed work required to
execute the project in an effective and efficient manner. My first and the most important
responsibility was performing the electrical maintenance work, wherever required after
involving the important repair to all the utilities. I even installed, altered, maintained and
finally repaired the electrical wiring system and equipment. I had also prepared as well as
presented several sketches to show the locations of equipment or wirings. Moreover, I had
utilized Man Machine Interface Software for displaying the colour graphic screens. I was
even assigned for the work for developing the specific appropriate and proper design that I
have made after the proper simulation as well as analysis of the power management system.
