9.4.5 Application
In the field of distribution and sub-transmission automation, the reliable control
and status indication of primary switching components both locally and remotely
is in a significant role. These features are needed especially in modern remote
controlled substations. The application area of DCSXSWI and ESSXSWI functions
covers remote and local status indication of, for example, disconnectors, air-
break switches and earthing switches, which represent the lowest level of power
switching devices without short-circuit breaking capability.
