Power systems are getting complicated as load centers get connected through network thus forming power grids. Since then black outs of power systems have become common. In an interconnected system, the loss of generation in one area can be replaced by generation from other areas. Thus, several systems interconnected can survive contingencies that the individual systems could not. Thus one benefit of interconnected power systems is the potential for increased reliability. This paper discusses the implementation of an automatic load transfer program in a ring electrical network using supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system that automates electric power system operations thus maintaining reliability.
