Household appliances network and grid connectivity - Part 1: General requirements, generic data modelling and neutral messages

This document defines data models for Interoperable Connected Household Appliances. The data models are derived from a logical decomposition of use cases into functional blocks that themselves were realized by abstract actions on the data model itself. This document is part of the EN 50631 series, which defines the information exchange between Smart Appliances and management systems in homes and buildings including energy management.

Appareils domestiques connectés au réseau et réseau intelligent - Partie 1: Exigences générales, modélisation de données génériques et messages neutres génériques

Le présent document définit les modèles de données des appareils domestiques connectés interopérables. Les modèles de données résultent d'une décomposition logique des cas d'utilisation en blocs fonctionnels, qui sont eux-mêmes obtenus par suite d'actions abstraites réalisées sur le modèle de données lui-même. Le présent document fait partie de la série EN 50631, qui définit l'échange d'informations entre les appareils intelligents et les systèmes de gestion des habitations et des bâtiments, y compris pour la gestion d'énergie.

Introduction
Energy management systems will more and more become necessary due to change from fossil and nuclear to
renewable production and the associated decentralization. Since an appropriate standard for a home and
building management is in preparation, this document specifies how sets of products from multiple
manufacturers can exchange information with Home and Building / Customer Energy Management Systems,
located in a home network or in the cloud.
This document focuses on interoperability of household appliances and describes the necessary control and
monitoring. It defines a set of functions of household and similar electrical appliances. The functions in this
document cover next to energy-management main remote-control and – monitoring use cases.
This document does not deal with safety and security requirements. Safety requirements have been set in the
EN 60335 series [2].
The EN 50631 series will provide interoperability on information exchange among various appliances in the
home. The EN 50631 document series will be re-arranged regarding the further development and will be split
into 6 parts:
EN 50631-1, Household appliances network and grid connectivity — Part 1: General Requirements, Generic
Data Modelling and Neutral Messages
EN 50631-2, Household appliances network and grid connectivity — Part 2: Product Specific mappings, details,
requirements and deviations
EN 50631-3-x, Household appliances network and grid connectivity — Part 3: Specific Data Model Mapping
EN 50631-4-x, Household appliances network and grid connectivity — Part 4: Communication Protocol Specific
Aspects
EN 50631-5, Household appliances network and grid connectivity — Part 5: General Test-Requirements and -
Specification
EN 50631-6, Household appliances network and grid connectivity — Part 6: SPINE Data Model Toolbox
Data communication heavily depends on the environment of appliances. Sometimes low bitrate or energy
efficient communication puts strict requirements to selected communication technologies. Therefore, popular
and de facto standards had been and will be developed by the industry to fulfil such requirements. To not
influence common data modelling for appliances because of such restrictions, the standardized data models
and neutral message structures need to be applied to communication technologies.
This standard series therefore is intended to separate data modelling and neutral message structure from the
attached communication.
Part 1 defines general requirements, generic data modelling and generic neutral messages without relation to
any specific communication technology or any product specific layout.
Part 2 lists and specifies product specific requirements and implementation guidance based on the generic data
model and generic neutral messages.
Part 3 defines the mapping of neutral messages to examples of typical data models like SPINE, SPINE-IoT,
OCF, and so forth. These data models are neither mandatory nor to be seen as complete spectrum of data
models.
Part 4 defines the mapping of neutral messages to examples of typical communication protocols. These
communication protocols are neither mandatory, nor do they provide an exhaustive list of communication
protocols.
Part 5 defines testing requirements and testing specifications. This part will be covered in the future by a New
Work Item Proposal.
Part 6 provides the technical reference specification for the SPINE data model. This part will be covered in the
future by a New Work Item Proposal.

4 Process and requirements to enable interoperability
4.1 Introduction
Energy management systems will more and more become a requirement due to the switch from fossil and
nuclear to renewable production and the associated decentralization. The success of energy management is
highly dependent on interoperability of the smart appliances within the premises, which means that all devices
will need a common, manufacturer-independent and brand-independent understanding of messages and data
(in a broader perspective, it does not matter if it is an energy-related message, a home management message
or an information message); see also [8].
This document specifies how different products from different manufacturers can exchange information with
Home and Building / Customer Energy Management Systems located in a home network or in the cloud. It
defines a set of functions of household and similar electrical appliances covering energy management, remote
control and monitoring.
There exist different networking technologies for interoperability in Homes and Buildings. Regardless of the
communication technology, they all have rules or standards (collectively known as protocols) that define the
syntax, semantics and synchronization of communication and error recovery methods which have to be taken
into account when defining specific protocols used for the scope. EN 50631-4 defines this process.
4.2 Process
The Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM) [9], published by the Smart Grid Coordination Group based on EU
mandate M/490, defines five interoperability layers representing business objectives and processes, functions,
information exchange and models, communication protocols and components.
Figure 1 shows the interoperability layer and the corresponding domains and zones, defined in the SGAM
Model.
Figure 1 — SGAM Framework (from [9])
In analogy to the SGAM Framework, this series of documents uses a top-down process and sequence of steps
to describe an open interface for integrating with Smart Appliances within the Customer Premises SGAM
domain (see Figure 2).
Figure 2 — Process used in this document
User stories and derived use cases are collections of ideas how to use Smart Appliances. User stories and use
cases are not binding and describe one possible solution (see Clause 6 and 7). However, they can be used to
deduce common Use Case Functions which can be used/referenced in certain use cases.
Use Case Functions (see Clause 8) contain a set of information and instructions to be exchanged between two
peers such as CCM and Device, described as a data model.
The data model needs to be placed into a message, combined with rules like addressing scheme, capabilities
of addressee and so forth. As this is specific to the protocol(s) at hand, this mapping to specific protocols has
been split out of this document into EN 50631-4-x.
4.3 Architecture
In general, a Smart Appliance connects to a CCM, but has in principle three operation modes:
— Standalone: The end user directly controls the Smart Appliance and all its functionality.
— Local: The Smart Appliance is connected to a local CCM via the HAN.
— IoT/Cloud: The Smart Appliance communicates via its cloud representation or directly with an IoT/cloud
based CCM.
NOTE As described in 3.6, the CCM manages the energy-using behaviour and may as well manage other aspects of
device behaviour. Thus, in Figure 4, it represents a logical component that in reality may be represented by one or more
physical and/or logical entities. According to EN 50491-12-x, for example, it might represent the combination of a Customer
Energy Manager (CEM) and a Resource Manager. EN 50631 does not prescribe the architecture of the CCM.
This document will describe further in detail the local and IoT/Cloud operation modes. The standalone mode is
not described in this document.
Figure 3 describes the application of EN 50631 series for the local and IoT/Cloud based operating modes.

Figure 3 — Application of EN 50631 series for the local and IoT/Cloud based operating modes
As the Use Case Functions are described in a general way without detailing the mapping of the information
content to specific protocols, it is possible to refer to these Use Case Functions both in a local Home Area
Network (HAN) and in a cloud. While the transport layer may change, the information content shall remain the
same. Figure 4 clarifies this concept showing a case of a “HAN-based protocol A” using a specific “transport
protocol C” and a “web-based protocol B”.
Figure 4 — Applicability of resources to different scenarios
This series of standards focuses on the interface between Smart Appliances and the CCM and describes this
interface from the Smart Appliance’s point of view. Figure 5 shows the applicability of EN 50631 (orange
arrows). All participating actors described in this figure are logical actors. The CCM may have other interactions
with the grid or with other actors in the premises, different from smart appliances, but these interactions are not
in the scope of EN 50631.
