3D SIMULATOR FOR TRAINING OPERATIONAL PERSONNEL IN 138KV/24KV ELECTRICAL SUBSTATIONS

The general objective of the research was to develop a three-dimensional simulated environment for the training of operating personnel responsible for electrical substations, which is supported by authors such as Hernandez Sampieri & Mendoza(2018), Gonzales (2017), among others. The methodology used was that of a non-experimental transectional projectivedescriptive research. The population and sample was made up of a single unit of analysis, which was the 3d Simulator as a training tool (Arias, 2017). Techniques such as direct observation were used, as well as checklists as an instrument (Hernandez Sampieri & Mendoza, 2018). Defining the development phases from the description of the operating principles, to the preparation and validation of the application. In the results, it was verified how the interaction between two or more software units is and it was verified that the application components work correctly, concluding that the performance of these virtual environments for the training of technical and maneuvering aspects in the substation area they are relevant for the type of application, due to the impossibility of testing on real systems, as well as the versatility of situations available to emulate.
