Why IEC61850?

-No overall standard for the serial communications in

substation automation.

-Meant that the many thousands of substation automation

systems installed worldwide were based on proprietary
standards

-The introduction of the IEC 61850 standard in 2004 is

changing this.

-Major industrial power users such as data centre operators

want to safeguard their investment in substation automation
equipment.

IEC61850 Objectives
1) Interoperability
– The ability of IEDs from one or several
manufacturers to exchange information and
use the information for the their own
functions.

2) Free configuration
– The standard shall support different
philosophies and allow a free allocation of
functions e.g. it must work equally well for
centralized (RTU like) or decentralized (SCS
like) systems

3)Long term stability

– The standard shall be future proof, i.e. it must
be able to follow the progress in
communication technology and the evolving
system requirements
