IEC 61850 is an international standard for electrical substation automation and communication. It defines abstract data models and protocols for monitoring, controlling, and protecting electrical substations. Key aspects of IEC 61850 include data modeling of substation components, fast transfer of event data between devices, support for sampled value transfer, and the Substation Configuration Language for storing configuration data. The standard consists of multiple parts and additional standards have been developed for applications such as hydroelectric plants and wind turbines.

IEC 61850
IEC 61850 is a standard for the design of electrical substation automation. IEC 61850 is a part of the International
Electrotechnical Commission's (IEC) Technical Committee 57 (TC57)[1] reference architecture for electric power
systems. The abstract data models defined in IEC 61850 can be mapped to a number of protocols. Current mappings
in the standard are to MMS (Manufacturing Message Specification), GOOSE, SMV, and soon to Web Services.
These protocols can run over TCP/IP networks and/or substation LANs using high speed switched Ethernet to obtain
the necessary response times of < 4 ms for protective relaying..

History
Multiple protocols exist for substation automation, which include many proprietary protocols with custom
communication links. Interoperation of devices from different vendors would be an advantage to users of substation
automation devices. An IEC project group of about 60 members from different countries worked in three IEC
working groups from 1995. They responded to all the concerns and objectives and created IEC 61850. The
objectives set for the standard were:
1. A single protocol for complete substation considering modeling of different data required for substation.
2. Definition of basic services required to transfer data so that the entire mapping to communication protocol can be
made future proof.
3. Promotion of high interoperability between systems from different vendors.
4. A common method/format for storing complete data.
5. Define complete testing required for the equipments which conforms to the standard.

IEC 61850 Features


IEC 61850 features include:
1. Data Modeling Primary process objects as well as protection and control functionality in the substation is
modelled into different standard logical nodes which can be grouped under different logical devices. There are
logical nodes for data/functions related to the logical device (LLN0) and physical device (LPHD).
2. Reporting Schemes There are various reporting schemes (BRCB & URCB) for reporting data from server
through a server-client relationship which can be triggered based on pre-defined trigger conditions.
3. Fast Transfer of events Generic Substation Events (GSE) are defined for fast transfer of event data for a
peer-to-peer communication mode. This is again subdivided into GOOSE & GSSE.
4. Setting Groups The setting group control Blocks (SGCB) are defined to handle the setting groups so that user
can switch to any active group according to the requirement.
5. Sampled Data Transfer Schemes are also defined to handle transfer of sampled values using Sampled Value
Control blocks (SVCB)
6. Commands Various command types are also supported by IEC 61850 which include direct & select before
operate (SBO) commands with normal and enhanced securities.
7. Data Storage Substation Configuration Language (SCL) is defined for complete storage of configured data of
the substation in a specific format.
