Energy T & D

From Poletop to 600 KVDC

Substation automation is from the smallest poletop that require a few I/O to the large installations that has PRP & HSR with redundant controllers on a fiber optic network. Brodersen has the complete solution.

Start configure your solution, and we will be happy to assist you. We do it every day 😉

Parallel Redundancy Protocol, PRP
High-availability Seamless Redundancy, HSR
Both are standardized redundancy protocols for industrial automation networks that require zero recovery time.
PRP/HSR products are suitable for electrical substation automation and mission-critical applications that cannot tolerate any system downtime.
IEC 62439-3 Clause 4 = PRP
IEC 62439-3 Clause 5 = HSR
