Abstract

Currently Smart Grids are considered as an optimum model for energy supply. It improves the efficiency, reliability and availability of the electricity supply. It uses structures to achieve compliance with interoperation that are used across the entire network. To achieve this, special devices are distributed through the entire grid. A RMU (Ring Main Unit) is a device that makes measurements of electrical variables of the grid and sends wirelessly information to a central station MTU (Master Terminal Unit). The RMU has the capacity to detect failures and perform control by disconnecting the grid. In this article, it is shown the design and manufacture of a scale RMU.
