2. Schneider Electric 2 - Power Monitoring – Daniel Cumming– January 2011 IEC 61850 – Motivation Substation automation:  Applications must deal with numerous protocols, data formats and data addressing Limited interoperability High integration costs High maintenance costs Need of a reliable electric service Strong level of automation = multiple electronic devices Multiple protocols and communication links Something needed to change:  IEC 61850 standard creation

3. Schneider Electric 3 - Power Monitoring – Daniel Cumming– January 2011 IEC 61850 – Key differentiators / Success factors  Integrated approach to system design and communications  Technical innovations: File based setup: archiving, maintenance and repeatability Unified modeling: of functions and common dictionary of terms Self description devices Independence of underlying protocols – future proof  Market support from vendors
