With the social progress, China's economy is also developing rapidly, which makes the emergence and continuous development of electrical automation technology in the development of power system, and has been successfully applied in many industries and fields. In today's information age, if you want electrical enterprises to achieve long-term and stable development, electrical automation technology must be constantly updated and optimized.

(1) The shortcomings of electrical automation in China's industrial development.

① Low end products, less innovation, high prices, high use costs for enterprises, and less use. Chinese enterprises mostly use low-end electrical automation products. Domestic high-end automation products are scarce. There are too many low-end products and lack of high-end products. According to the use experience of enterprises and automation products, the main control system technology in the system is relatively mature and the product quality is high. In addition, the automation control system of large-scale public equipment is very backward, the scope of investment and use is limited, the use cost of enterprises is high, and the automation of industrial electrical equipment develops slowly.

② There is a gap in product performance and it is difficult to enter major projects. There is a big gap between China's electrical automation system and foreign countries in reliability, stability, adaptability, integration, intelligence, etc., which makes it difficult for domestic electrical automation system to enter the main equipment, core equipment and key equipment of major projects.

③ The corresponding professional talents are scarce, with limited quality and difficult operation and maintenance. In China's industrial and mining enterprises, there is a shortage of professional and technical personnel. The solution of many problems depends on manufacturers or external experts, which makes most industrial and mining enterprises lack relevant technical management and operation talents after using equipment, which greatly reduces the use of technical advantages.

(2) The advantages of electrical automation in industrial development.

① The system is easy to operate with high efficiency. The electrical automation is simple to use. In the specific operation process, it does not require special personnel who understand the programming language to be competent. It only needs to operate on the preset programming based on the conventional Windows system to complete the work. At the same time, one operator can supervise several equipment at the same time, reduce personnel investment, and achieve centralized, supervisory control and management. Compared with the traditional manual control mode, the labor efficiency can be improved several times.

② The system has high safety performance and less maintenance work. In terms of both hardware and software, the electrical automation system can be optimized for the traditional unstable factors to avoid manual operation errors, poor equipment contact points, troubleshooting and other problems, enhance the anti-interference ability of the system and reduce the occurrence rate of equipment failures.

③ The progress of equipment automation promotes the development of industrial and mining enterprises. In terms of equipment automation system, it has broken through a large number of technical difficulties, such as real-time data replication technology, data diversion and interception technology, intelligent fault diagnosis technology, and made new breakthroughs in the system from technology level to architecture, from hardware performance to software functions.
