Abstract: The electrical system of the steel plant has many equipment,strong fluctuation of operating load,and multiple cross-regional control points,and the traditional decentralized monitoring is difficult to meet the needs of real-time,centralized management and remote operation.To solve this problem,this paper proposes a factory electrical automation monitoring platform based on configuration software,which realizes real-time monitoring and remote safety operation of multiple equipment across workshops through visual detection interface,alarm and event management module and remote control of electrical equipment.Experimental results show that the automated monitoring platform designed in this paper can improve the monitoring efficiency and enhance the equipment operation and maintenance ability of steel.
