Structure of telecontrol centres and overall systems.

The methods for designing telecontrol systems vary very much in different countries due to different conditions, e.g. power production and grid, as well as of an organisational nature. One is also dependent on the techniques and economics of the control system components, e.g. computers and communication equipment. The report discusses the most common methods for designing telecontrol systems, but many other methods could and will be applied in the future.
