What is RTDS?
RTDS stands for Real Time Digital Simulator. It's a specialized computer hardware and software platform primarily used for simulating power systems in real-time. This allows engineers to test control and protection systems, analyze system behavior under various conditions (e.g., faults, switching events), and perform Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing of power system equipment like relays and controllers before they are deployed in the field.
