SYSTEM (SAS)

INTRODUCTION
• Substation Automation Systems (SASs) are widely used for the
purpose of control, protection, monitoring, communication etc.
in substations to improve the reliability of the power system.
• SASs adopting IT based solutions such as Ethernet LAN have
recently become more common.
• Although hardwired control has been used in the past in earlier
versions of SAS utilizing simple communication methods.
• Moreover, the IEC61850 standard has been issued as the new
global communication standard for substations.
• The standard consists of ten parts, the final part being issued in
2005. Subsequently IEC61850 has been applied widely in SASs
around the world.

• In the next step, the Logical Nodes (LNs) and communication services will be selected
in accordance with user requirements.
• If appropriate LNs or signals for the required functions are not defined in IEC61850,
the use of generic LNs such as GGIO or extension of LNs will be required. In this case,
the application of GGIO or extension of LNs must be kept to a minimum and with great
care in order to achieve interoperability between IEDs.

(c) To ensure redundant paths by adopting a ring topology with a redundant feature for the station bus.
Furthermore separating the ring configuration into several rings can also improve the
dependability.
(d) Ethernet switches on the IED side are common to several IEDs. Failure of the power supply will have
the greatest impact as it will result in the total loss of function of the switch itself. Therefore it
would be preferable that the power supply for each switch was redundant to increase reliability.
(e) We also have to consider how to integrate information from non-digital devices or non-IEC 61850
devices in the substation or in protection relay panels .To integrate this information into the system,
an IFU (Interface Unit) can be used which has interface functions for serial communication and
binary inputs/outputs.

GOOSE (GENERIC OBJECT ORIENTED
SUBSTATION EVENT.)
• The general functions for protection and control are equipped within
this SAS together with distributed functions using GOOSE messages.
• The GOOSE is one of the particularly important features of IEC61850.
• GOOSE is a high speed ‘peer-to-peer’ communication protocol used
between IEDs
• And by using GOOSE messaging it is possible to greatly reduce the
number of control cables and contacts between IEDs.
• Examples of GOOSE messages are listed for the following application
functions:
- Autoreclosing (between relay and BCU/CB)
- Intertripping (between relay and relay)
- Blocking (between relay and relay/BCU)
- Interlocking (between BCU and BCU)

- Multi-vender interoperability
- High speed communication between IEDs
- Lower installation, extension and engineering costs
- Easier extension of functions and implementation of new functions
• ISSUES :
- In some parts of the standard, descriptions are not clear and interpretation is difficult. Hence,
it is possible that different users may reach a different understanding of a particular description.
- All functions and signals required in substations are not defined as LNs. Hence, generic LNs
(GGIO) are often used or extended LNs are defined and applied. But, these cause difficulty for
interoperability.
IEC 61850 Based substation automation system (SAS)
- The standard LNs contain many optional settings/signals and extension of LNs is
allowed to cover various kinds of applications. However, interoperability, which is
the purpose of IEC61850, can only be reliazed in the case of identical
communication services, LN data structure and definition for each set of data
exchanged between IEDs.
- The improvement and revision to updating the standard is needed and this is ongoing
under IEC/TC57/WG10 and he second edition of the standard will be issued within
the next few years.
- Users should consider having their own document covering communications
requirements including standard LNs, communication services and definitions for
each data/signal for the LNs corresponding to their specified functions.
