Abstract = {An increased penetration of decentralized genera-
tion in the current electrical power system brings a number
of challenges that grid operators need to address. With this in
mind, the main objective is the control and protection of a het-
erogeneous system that presents an unpredictable behavior which
could ultimately hinder the stable operation of the present and
future electrical infrastructure. Having this in mind, it is desir-
able to bolster emerging control and protection systems to adapt
to new requirements and possible constraints. Consequently, the
project i-Automate seeks to develop a concept that is able to use
the available standards, functionalities and hardware to bring
forward a flexible and reconfigurable automation network to
help system operators to cope with the different challenges here
presented. For the purpose of testing such a concept a voltage
control architecture is used in a distribution grid. Furthermore,
a failure of one of the main controllers is induced and the
reconfiguration of the system is performed. Finally, it is observed
that regardless of the failure the remaining devices take the
control of the system and are able to maintain the voltage within
the acceptable range.}
