The City of Homestead Electric Department operates and maintains a 138kV transmission and distribution infrastructure dedicated to providing reliable, safe, and efficient power to our community. As part of our long-term capital improvement and system modernization strategy, we are actively standardizing its protective relaying fleet across all high-voltage substations and transmission lines. Transitioning our existing heritage ABB line protection packages on Line #1 to standardized Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories (SEL) digital relays is a crucial step in streamlining internal maintenance workflows, simplifying setting management, and ensuring rapid, selective fault isolation. The primary challenge of this project lies in executing the relay cutover and field commissioning efficiently within strictly timed, pre-scheduled transmission outage windows. Working in a live 138kV substation environment demands flawless technical execution, rigorous attention to detail, and seamless coordination with System Operations.
