Technical Report Considering Protection IEDs with Digital Inputs and Output under way


The IEC TC 95 Ad Hoc Working Group 3 (AHG3 meeting in Nanjing this week) 


is discussing the scope of a new document with the following Scope;

This Technical Report aims at considering protection IEDs with digital inputs and output complying with IEC 61850 and IEC 61869 standards, in particular 
  1. subscribing streams of digital Sampled Values (SV) representing energizing inputs of the protection function.
  2. subscribing GOOSE and/or reports by the protection function (eg. cb position, cb failure).
  3. publishing GOOSE messages (e.g. trip orders).
  4. subscribing time synchronization information.
On this base, this document will give recommendations and guidelines concerning requirements and testing of protection IED with digital inputs and outputs within TC95.

Requirements regarding characteristics of the communication network are not within the scope of this Technical Report. Delays and jitter due to the network have to be taken into account by network engineering. Figure 1 below shows the functional chain of a protection function.  This Technical Report only considers the data received and publish by the protection IED as shown in figure below. 

More to come ...
