Comprehensive EPRI-Project UCA 2.0 GOAL: One International Standard IEC 61850 IEC 60870-5-101, -103, -104 European experience
What is IEC 61850 ? IEC 61850 is NOT just a communication protocol It is a suite of multiple protocols It is an application focused communication architecture It is one of the key building blocks for the Smart Grid IEC 61850 standard defines complete communication architecture in Electrical Power System

SCL – Substation Configuration Language IEC61850-6-1 Description language for communication in electrical substations related to the IEDs XML based language that allows a formal description of Substation automation system and the switchyard and the relation between them IED configuration Communication parameters Eases the integration process of devices from multiple vendors
CID: Configured IED Description. XML configuration for a specific IED. SCL File Types SSD: System Specification Description. XML description of the entire system. SCD: Substation Configuration Description. XML description of a single substation. ICD: IED Capability Description. XML description of items supported by an IED. CID: Configured IED Description. XML configuration for a specific IED.

System Configuration Description ( SCD ) Single line diagram Communication network IED configurations Binding information ( e.g. trip matrix )
Configured IED Description ( CID ) Created by the IED configuration tool from the .SCD file Includes the device-specific configuration data Use of the .CID file to configure the IED is optional
ACSI Abstract Communications Service Interface Abstract interface describing communications between a client and a remote server for: real-time data access and retrieval, device control, event reporting and logging, file transfer Defines a set of Objects
ACSI Abstract Communications Service Interface This part of IEC 61850 may also be applied to describe device models and functions for additional activities, such as: substation to substation information exchange, substation to control centre information exchange, power plant to control centre information exchange, information exchange for distributed generation, or information exchange for metering.

GOOSE messages Time critical data eg. trip, block, interlock, etc. Tripping of switchgear Starting of disturbance recorder Providing position indication for interlocking
GOOSE messages
GOOSE Usage for Interlocking & Tripping
IEC 61850 GOOSE Device to multi-device communication Fast transmission of substation events, blocking, permissive signals, etc. Also transmission of analog values ( voltage, current, frequency, etc.) Event driven transmission sent on change of state Interlocking Indication
GOOSE Example – False Bus Differential
IEC 61850 Architecture
Relay to Relay Applications Peer to Peer messaging
Legacy Architecture
Legacy Architecture Requires N*(N-1)/2 links for N relays. Reprogramming can require rewiring. Requires filtering on links to prevent false trips.
IEC 61850 Network Architecture
IEC 61850 Network Architecture Relays share a common network making sophisticated protection schemes possible. Number of links for N relays is N and shared with SCADA. Relays send their status to all other relays at once using GOOSE. Status exchanged continuously. High performance.
Benefits Reduction of wiring costs More flexible programming is independent of wiring Reliability: Link status known before use. New capabilities not cost-effective with hardwired systems. Higher performance with more data.
Hardwired Performance
Network Performance
Justification
Transducer Interfaces
Legacy Approach
Legacy Approach Individually and redundantly wired to all devices needing the same signals: CTs PTs Status Inputs Outputs Each individual sensor must be calibrated and maintained separately. Incremental cost is exponential (signals x devices) Result is minimization of I/O
IEC61850 Approach
IEC61850-9-2 Process Bus Transducer and I/O signals are shared via a network. Only one transducer or I/O point per signal. Minimization of calibration and maintenance. Incremental cost is linear (signals only) Future: Integrated MU with digital fiber optic transducers
Justification
Benefits of IEC61850 High-level services enable self-describing devices & automatic object discovery saving $$$$$ in configuration, setup and maintenance. Standardized naming conventions with power system context eliminates device dependencies and tag mapping saving $$$$ in config., setup, and maintenance. Standardized configuration file formats enables exchange of device configuration saving $$$$ in design, specification, config., setup, and maint.
Benefits of IEC61850 Higher performance multi-cast messaging for inter-relay communications enables functions not possible with hard wires and save $$$$ in wiring and maintenance. Multi-cast messaging enables sharing of transducer (CT/PT) signals saving $$$$ by reducing transducers and calibration costs.
