This seminar provides an in-depth introduction to SCADA systems, covering approximately two (2) hours of foundational knowledge on their architecture and functionality. Attendees will explore the role of SCADA systems, current development trends, and advancements in securing these systems, including design, installation, and testing best practices. Key topics will include the integration of fiber optics, IEC 61850, and enhanced CIP Security measures, all of which significantly influence modern SCADA system design and implementation.

For the remaining time, the session will transition to practical troubleshooting and testing techniques. Instructors will demonstrate how to connect with RTUs (specifically SEL-RTACs) and various relays, identifying and addressing common issues that hinder successful SCADA system deployment. Participants will engage in interactive demonstrations to uncover subtle nuances in troubleshooting methods, fostering a deeper understanding of effective implementation strategies.

Four (4) CEH will be provided.
