Korea Electric Power Research Institute in charge of the power IT project "Development of Prototype for Advanced Substation Automation System based on the Digital Control Technology", is performing the verification of performance of the substation automation system. In order to verify a system based BUS protection IED, the standardized document and procedures are required. But there is nothing to describe systematically how to verify IEC 61850 based IED in the system environment except an individual IED testing way and report. This paper presents the substation automation system based ways and procedures to verify the IED using UML(Unified Modelling Language).

In this paper, problems and solutions are proposed for applying IEC 61850 to Distribution Automation System(DAS). Communication protocol integration in power automation system have issued by IEC standards, IEC 61850 of them has researched for applying IEC 61850 to many areas of power system in spite of that it was made for substation automation system. Especially, DAS is just about to apply IEC 61850 by communication network change from serial to ethernet although DNP 3.0 is used. But it's impossible to apply directly IEC 61850 to DAS by difference of environment which unfixed wide area and separated nodes in power distribution system unlike concept of IEC 61850 is made by Substation Automation System(SAS) environment of limited space. Thus, this paper proposed applications of three types which conceptual, practical, and future to consider problems and solutions when apply IEC 61850 to Ethernet based DAS.

IEC61850 which has comes to international standard for substation automation is designed with a station and process bus communication with Ethernet. In this paper, mentioning difference between official networks and substation networks, authors present the requirements for temperature, humidity and EMI characteristics. The properties which network switch should be satisfied and the technologies which make those requirements possible are also proposed. Additionally, we analysis the traffic pattern of communication services which IEC61850 supports. Based on the pattern, we propose a practical design example of IEC61850 based network for a 154kV substation.

As IEC 61850 based substation automation technology is emerging globally, there are many efforts to implement and apply this IEC 61850 standard to substation automation area. IEC 61850 based substation supports ethernet network, standard data model and SCL(substation Configuration Language), etc. These features can provide enough environment to make applied technology which can substitute the legacy relay trip logic configuration method(PLC or Local area reconstruction) to XML based configuration method. This paper suggests new IED trip logic configuration method. The XML based trip logic configuration method can be established using SCL technology And IED trip logic reconfiguration from remote center can be possible under ethernet based technology

Substation automation is one of the key issues for the enhancement of the power industrial foundation. IEC 60850 is an international standard specifying communication network and systems in substation. It supports interchangeability and interoperability of equipments from different vendors. ACSI(Abstract communication service interface) specifies basic communication structure for substation and IEDs. It supports communication as well as various services without proper protocols. For actual communication, MMS(Manufacturing Message Specification : ISO 9506) is used to map ACSI services. Solutions for the development of communication driver based don IEC 61850 are proposed in this paper.

Times New RomanThe utilization of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in the smart grid application can construct efficient and reliable electrical grid. IEC 61850 was adopted as the standard for smart grid exchanging the information required in an electric power utility. However, applying technologies like IEC 61850 using Ethernet to the automation of small distribution substation directly may cost more than the value of the small distribution substation itself. IEEE 802.15.4 technology attracts attention in the field of power utility automation because of low installation cost and ease of installation. Studies are conducted, which use IEEE 802.15.4 in less strict D1 small distribution substation. This study applied IEEE 802.15.4 to the small distribution substation and conducted performance evaluation using the actual equipment. This study determined the scope of application of IEEE 802.15.4 by conducting a comparative analysis of the message type in IEC 61850.

This paper presents the guideline for enhancing the reliability and availability of SAS with IEC 61850 based IEDs in real power system. The IEC 61850 standard communication networks and systems allow utilities to consider new designs for substations applicable both new substation and refurbishments. The existing solutions are based on hardwired interface between the primary substation equipment and the secondary protection, monitoring, control and recording devices. All over the world, lots of projects at different stages of realization have been reported during the last year leading to a rapid maturation of the associated technologies. At present, IEC 61850 is becoming a popular communication standard for the substation automation system.

The deregulation of energy market, together with structure reorganization of vertically integrated companies in electrical utility requires efficient and reliable substation automation system. The problem of non-standards where other countries suffer through the SA points could be settled using IEC 61850 and hereby the coming SAS project can realize the system that characterize the telecommunication standards and function integration.

Recently the substation automation is actively researched at each country. Since the substation automation is an integrated system that consist of electrical, electronic and computer technologies, performance evaluation is very important to inspect the developed system's applicable possibility for real power system. Most studies are verified using computer simulation, because it is hard to apply them to real power systems. Therefore development of a substation simulator is necessary for the performance evaluation of many application systems such as operator aid system. This paper introduces a substation simulator. An intelligent fault diagnosis and restorative control expert system is also introduced UDP/IP is applied as a protocol for data transport between expert system and SC(station computer). As to the Graphic User Interface, C++ Language and Visual Basic is used in the Windows NT operating system together with four Pentium II systems.
