Electrical power substations are responsible for stepping and routing voltages delivered from power plants to consumers. Constant maintenance of a substation is vital because its components age and it is difficult and expensive to replace components. The loss of a power component can result in power outages for thousands of customers and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. To properly maintain these components, system operators need consistent and automated testing of control and monitoring systems installed in each substation.
