In order to construct the IEC 61850 based substation automation system, the IED integration engineering tool is necessary to cope with the substation automation by full digital devices in the real power system. Compared the configuration tools provided IED vendors which are able to support the operation and communication analysis among IEDs, the XML based IED integration engineering tool can build, edit and save the ICD, SCL and CID files. Particularly, the IED integration engineering tool is possible to apply the IEC 61850 based IEDs to engineering the systems and also provides the reliability and efficiency of the system to the utilities and manufacturers.

The CMD(Condition Monitoring & Diagnosis) System is used to monitor and analyze the PD(Partial Discharge), Arc, Temperature, Pressure, Gas in Oil and so on for reliability and availability of the substation. Although this system comes into the spotlight as the forecast and management of the failure and fault, there are some problems. For example, the unified standard was not defined, and the effective management of the layed communication network does not performed, limitation of physical space, etc. To resolve above problems, this paper suggests the IEC61850 compatible eCMD system architecture for monitoring and analyzing the CMD factor in substations. The suggested eCMD system consists of CMD-LU(Condition Monitoring & Diagnosis-Local Unit), IED(Intelligent Electronic Device), and engineering centers. The IEC61850 is the international standard that defines communication networks and system in substation.

The local information processing devices are devices that process information by converting voltage, current, and digital electric signals from legacy-type power facility into IEC 61850 based data. It acquires and processes the operation information of legacy-type power facility, performs control of power facility, and interlock function using internal logic. In particular, the time to convert data to process input and output information for a device is important because a number of protection relay input and output signals are handled by only one device. This paper introduces test methods and cases for measuring IEC 61850 communication function and input/output data conversion time of local information processing device.

Digitalization of the substation in Korea has been in progress so far with focusing on Station Bus. However, its application to Process Bus has been delayed due to some technical issues. IEDs based on Process Bus use the data values of SV and GOOSE. As the size of communication data on Process Bus is comparatively bigger than that of Station Bus, it is very important for the evaluating the performance of Process Bus to analyze the transferring speed and quality of data from the first equipment, which is located on process level, to station level. According to the results of related studies, it is said that the most important factor for the design and operation of Process Bus network is the communication delay with consideration of the volume of packets. In the paper, the results of performance test for the network with and without application of VLAN on Process Bus system that uses integrated IEDs are presented. Additionally, the paper proposes the optimal method to analyze the communication delays of network systems through evaluating the maximum delay time, link process ratio and the amount of lost packets by using a simulation tool.

In the process of location selection, it is assumed that transformer substation socially recognized as a dangerous facility require especially more rigorous and resonable process. This paper implements suitability analysis for optimum location selection of transformer substation in southern Gyeonggi province using AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) and spatial analysis of GIS in terms of safety, national land use, economical efficiency and environment preservation. To do this, necessary data from 1/5,000 digital map are extracted a s raster format for suitability analysis and a field investigation also was done. In the procedure of site selection, three candidate zones with 1.5km radius were selected for the whole research area and then through field survey low transformer sites were selected from candidate zones. In the last the appropriateness of selected sites was evaluated. The results of the suitability analysis showed that the first candidate site satisfied the location condition best and other candidate sites generally showed good location condition.

IEC-61850 기반의 디지털 변전소 자동화시스템을 구축하기 위해서는 전체 변전소의 네트워크 구성 정보와 개별 IED들의 정보를 연계 처리할 엔지니어링 툴이 필요하다. 상위 시스템 벤더에 따른 개별적인 SCL(Substation Configuration Description Language) 엔지니어링 툴이 아닌 표준화된 기능들을 갖는 범용툴의 적용은 향후 디지털 변전소자동화 시스템의 필수 요소라 하겠다. 본 논문에서는 실제 변전소에 적용했던 SCL 엔지니어링 툴을 기반으로 필수적인 사항들에 대한 조건을 제시하였고, 복수의 IED의 ICD파일 정보와 전체 변전소 시스템에서 적용되는 정보를 처리하고 기존 SCADA와의 호환성을 위한 기능도 적용하였다. 다양한 전력시스템 벤더들에 따른 개별적인 엔지니어링 툴이 아닌 IEC-61850 프로토콜 표준이 적용된 디지털 변전소에 적합한 효율적인 SCL 엔지니어링 툴의 표준을 만드는데 도움이 되고자 한다.

It has been appeared and widely used today SF6 Gas Insulated Substation(Hereafter called GIS) for the power supply to the densely populated area due to the superior insulation withstand ability of SF6 Gas. And to maximize the compact effect of this substation, it is normal practice to connect underground cables. If it is possible to elieminate the redundant lightning arresters using the physical characterestics of travelling waves in underground cables, economical advantages can be obtained together with easy maintenances. It is presented in this paper the possiblity of eliminating the transformer protection lightning arresters under some conditions for the 154kV GIS's (BIL:750kV) which Korea Electric Co. plans to construct using the general purpose digital computer program.

Transmission line is exposed to a large area, and then faults are likely to occur than the other component of power system. When a fault occurs on a transmission line, fault locator helps fast recovery of power supply on power system. This paper deals with the design of a digital fault locator for improvement accuracy of the fault distance estimation and a fault occurrence position for transmission line. The algorithm of a fault locator uses a DC offset removal filter and DFT filter. The algorithm utilizes a fault data of GPS time synchronized. The computed fault information is transmitted to the other side substation through communication. The digital fault locator includes MPU module, ADPU module, SIU module, and a power module. The MMI firmware and software of the fault locator was implemented.

In this paper, we designed the security management system based on IEC 62351-7 in the Smart Grid environment. The scope of IEC 62351-7 focuses on network and system management (NSM) of the information infrastructure as well as end-to-end security through abstract NSM data objects for the power system operational environment. However, it does not exist that security management system based on IEC 62351-7 manages the security of the power system in the Smart Grid environment, because power equipment or SNMP agents providing NSM data do not exist yet. Therefore, we implemented the security management system to manage the information infrastructure as reliably as the power system infrastructure is managed. We expect that this system can perform the security management of IEC 61850 based digital substation and can be a prototype of the security system for the Smart Grid in the future.
