Komunikacijska omrežja in sistemi za avtomatizacijo porabe električne energije - 5. del: Komunikacijske zahteve za funkcije in modeli naprav - Dopolnilo A1
Specifikacije iz tega dokumenta se navezujejo na splošne oziroma osnovne komunikacijske zahteve za funkcije aplikacij v vseh domenah sistemov za avtomatizacijo porabe električne energije. Zahteve za namensko komunikacijo in aplikacijske funkcije (večina primerov), obravnavane v tem dokumentu, izvirajo iz domene avtomatizacije razdelilne naprave, vendar jih je mogoče ponovno uporabiti ali razširiti tudi na druge domene v okviru avtomatizacije porabe električne energije. Včasih se namesto izraza domena avtomatizacije razdelilne postaje uporablja izraz domena razdelilne postaje, zlasti če se upoštevajo ranžirne naprave (primarni sistem) in avtomatizacijski sistem (sekundarni sistem). Opis aplikacijskih funkcij se ne uporablja za standardizacijo teh funkcij, ampak za opredelitev komunikacijskih zahtev med inteligentnimi elektronskimi napravami (IED), ki so gostiteljice teh funkcij v obratih in razdelilnih postajah v napajalnem sistemu, med takšnimi postajami (npr. med razdelilno postajo za zaščito linije) ter med obratom ali razdelilno postajo in oddaljenimi upravljalnimi prostori na višji ravni (npr. omrežna nadzorna središča) in vzdrževalnimi prostori. Obravnavani so tudi vmesniki do oddaljenih tehničnih storitev (npr. vzdrževalnih središč). Splošno področje uporabe so komunikacijske zahteve za sisteme za avtomatizacijo porabe električne energije. Osnovni cilj je interoperabilnost za vse interakcije, pri čemer se zagotovi celosten komunikacijski sistem za celovito upravljanje napajalnega sistema. Predpogoj za interoperabilnost je tudi enotno opredeljena metoda za časovno sinhronizacijo. Standardizacija aplikacijskih funkcij in njihovo izvajanje sta popolnoma zunaj področja uporabe tega standarda. Zato ni mogoče predpostaviti, da gre za enotno filozofijo dodeljevanja aplikacijskih funkcij napravam. V podporo posledični zahtevi za prosto dodeljevanje teh funkcij je opredeljena ustrezna razčlenitev funkcij na dele, ustrezne za komunikacijo. Opredeljeni so izmenjani podatki in njihovo zahtevano delovanje. Enake ali podobne inteligentne elektronske naprave iz razdelilnih postaj, kot so zaščitne in krmilne naprave, so prisotne tudi v drugih domenah, kot so elektrarne. Uporaba tega dokumenta za takšne naprave v teh obratih lajša integracijo sistema, npr. med krmilnim sistemom elektrarne in povezanim sistemom avtomatizacije razdelilne naprave. Za nekatere tovrstne druge domene uporabe, kot so vetrne elektrarne, hidroelektrarne in distribuirani energetski viri, so že opredeljeni in izdani posebni deli standarda v skladu s skupino standardov IEC 61850.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

INTRODUCTION
Delete the existing fourth paragraph of the Introduction. Replace the existing text of the fifth
paragraph of the Introduction with the following new text:
The IEC 61850 series shall be long living but allow following the fast changes in communication
technology by both its technical approach and its document structure. The IEC 61850 series
has been organized so that at least minor changes to one part do not require a significant
rewriting of another part. For example, the derived data models in subsequent parts
(IEC 61850-7-x) and mappings to dedicated stacks (IEC 61850-8-x and IEC 61850-9-x) based
on the communication requirements in IEC 61850-5 will not change the requirements defined
in IEC 61850-5. In addition, the general parts, the requirement specification and the modelling
parts are independent from any implementation. The implementation needed for the use of the
standard is defined in some few dedicated parts referring to main stream communication means
thus supporting the long living of the standard and its potential for later technical changes.
Replace the existing text of the sixth paragraph of the Introduction with the following new text:
This consolidated version of IEC 61850-5:2013 and its Amendment 1 defines the
communication requirements for functions and device models for power utility automation
systems.
Replace the existing text of the seventh paragraph and the Note of the Introduction with the
following new text:
The modelling of communication requires the definition of objects (e.g., data objects, data sets,
report control, log control) and services accessing the objects (e.g., get, set, report, create,
delete). This is defined in IEC 61850-7 with a clear interface to implementation. To use the
benefits of communication technology, in this standard no new protocol stacks are defined but
a standardized mapping on existing stacks is given in IEC 61850-8 and IEC 61850-9. A System
configuration language (IEC 61850-6) for strong formal description of the system usable for
software tools and a standardized conformance testing (IEC 61850-10) complement the
standard.
NOTE 1 To keep the layered approach of the standard not mixing application and implementation requirements,
terms like client, server, data objects, etc. are normally not used in IEC 61850-5 (requirements). In IEC 61850-7
(modelling), -8 and -9 (specific communication service mapping) terms belonging to application requirements like
PICOM are normally not used.
NOTE 2 Specific requirements concerning extensions of part 8 are covered in separate technical reports, e.g.
IEC TR 61850-80-3.

1 Scope
Replace the existing text of Clause 1 by the following new text:
The specifications of this document refer to general, respectively core, communication
requirements of the application functions in all domains of power utility automation systems.
Dedicated communication requirements and most examples of application functions in this
document are from the domain substation automation but may be reused in or extended to other
domains within power utility automation systems. Note that sometimes instead of the term
substation automation domain the term substation domain is used, especially if both the
switchyard devices (primary system) and the automation system (secondary system) are
regarded.
The description of the application functions is not used to standardize these functions, but to
identify communication requirements between Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) hosting
these functions within plants and substations in the power system, between such stations (e.g.
between substation for line protection) and between the plant or substation and higher-level
remote operating places (e.g. network control centres) and maintenance places. In addition
interfaces to remote technical services (e.g. maintenance centres) are considered. The general
scope is the communication requirements for power utility automation systems. The basic goal
is interoperability for all interactions providing a seamless communication system for the overall
power system management. Another prerequisite for interoperability is a commonly defined
method for time synchronization.
Standardizing application functions and their implementation is completely outside the scope of
this document. Therefore, it cannot be assumed a single philosophy of allocating application
functions to devices. To support the resulting request for free allocation of these functions, a
proper breakdown of these functions into parts relevant for communication is defined. The
exchanged data and their required performance are defined.
The same or similar IEDs from substations like protective and control devices are found in other
domains like power plants also. Using this document for such devices in these plants facilitates
the system integration e.g. between the power plant control and the related substation
automation system. For some of such other application domains like wind power plants, hydro
power plants and distributed energy resources specific standard parts according to the
IEC 61850 series have been already defined and published.

3 Terms and definitions
Replace the existing text of the first two paragraphs of Clause 3 by the following new text:
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in IEC TS 61850-2, as well
as the following apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following
addresses:
• IEC Electropedia: available at http://www.electropedia.org/
• ISO Online browsing platform: available at http://www.iso.org/obp
3.1 General
Replace the existing text of terms and definitions 3.1.1 to 3.1.4 with the following new text:
3.1.1
application function
task which is performed in or by power utility automation systems
Note 1 to entry: Generally, an application function consists of subparts which may be distributed to different IEDs,
which exchange data with each other. More precisely these sub-functions implemented in the IEDs exchange data.
Also, between different functions data are exchanged. The exchanged data exposed to the communication system
shall be standardized based on the semantic content to be understandable by the receiving function. For this purpose,
the standard groups the exchanged data in objects called Logical Nodes which refer to the name of the allocated
functions by their mnemonic name.
3.1.2
local function
application function which is performed by sub-functions in one physical device
Note 1 to entry: If the performance of the functions is not depending on functions in other devices no standardized
link is needed. Sometimes, functions with a weak dependency only from other ones are also called local functions.
The loss of such links should not result in blocking these functions but in worst case to some graceful degradation.
3.1.3
distributed function
application function which is performed by sub-functions in two or more different physical
devices
Note 1 to entry: The exchanged data is contained in Logical Nodes having a common semantic reference to the
distributed function. Since all functions communicate in some way, the definition of a local or a distributed function
is not unique but depends on the definition of the functional steps to be performed until the function is defined as
complete. In case of losing the data of one Logical Node or losing one included communication link the function may
be blocked completely or show a graceful degradation if applicable.
3.1.4
system
set of interacting entities which perform a common functionality
Note 1 to entry: The backbone of the system is the data exchange.
3.1.16
logical node (LN)
Replace the existing text of term 3.1.16 with the following new text:
3.1.16
Logical Node (LN)

IEC 2022
3.2 Connections
3.2.1
logical connection
Replace the existing text of definition 3.2.1 by the following new text:
communication link between application functions represented by Logical Nodes
3.2.2
physical connection
Replace the existing text of definition 3.2.2 by the following new text:
communication link between intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) and is providing all logical
connections for the implemented application functions represented by Logical Nodes
3.2.4
hidden connection
Replace the existing text of the note to 3.2.4 by the following new text:
Note 1 to entry: This data exchange is not visible and cannot be used by other IEDs therefore not requesting
interoperability. It should be noted that by distributing combined application functions in one IED to more than one
IED hidden connections may get exposed ones which shall be standardized.
3.5 Power utility automation functions at different levels
3.5.2
station level functions
Replace the existing text (not including the note) of definition 3.5.2 with the following new text:
power system application functions referring to the substation or plant as whole
3.5.3
bay level functions
Replace the existing text of definition 3.5.3 with the following new text:
application functions using mainly the data of one bay and acting mainly on the primary
equipment of one bay
3.5.4
process level functions
Replace the existing text of definition 3.5.4 and Note 1 with the following new text:
application functions interfacing to the process, i.e. basically binary and analogue I/O functions
like data acquisition (including sampling) and issuing of commands related to one primary object
(e.g. circuit breaker)
Note 1 to entry: These functions communicate via the logical interfaces IF4 and IF5 to the bay level. The process
level functions may be implemented in the bay level IEDs together with the bay level functions if no process bus is
applied. If a process bus is applied the process level functions are implemented in process level IEDs.
3.5.5
process related station level functions
Replace the existing text of definition 3.5.5 and Note 1 with the following new text:
application functions using the data of more than one bay or of the complete substation and
acting on the primary equipment of more than one bay or of the complete substation
Note 1 to entry: Examples of such functions are station wide interlocking, automatic sequencers or busbar
protection. These functions communicate mainly via the logical interface IF8.
IEC 61850-5:2013/AMD1:2022 – 11 –
IEC 2022
3.5.6
interface related station level functions
Replace the existing text of definition 3.5.6 and Note 1 with the following new text:
application functions representing the interface of the power automation system to the local
station operator named HMI (human machine interface), to a remote control centre named TCI
(telecontrol interface) or to the remote engineering workplace for monitoring and maintenance
named TMI (telemonitoring interface)
Note 1 to entry: These functions communicate in substations via the logical interfaces IF1 and IF6 with the bay
level and via the logical interface IF7 and the remote control interface to the outside world. Logically, there is no
difference if the HMI is local or remote. In the context of the substation there exists at least one logical interface for
the substation automation system at the boundary of the substation. Same holds both for the TCI and TMI. These
logical interfaces may be realized in some implementations as proxy servers.
3.6 Miscellaneous
3.6.1
local issue
Replace the existing text of definition 3.6.1 (not including the note) with the following new text:
some functionality which is performed only inside an IED without communication to other IEDs
which is outside the scope of IEC 61850 series
3.6.2
granularity
Replace the existing text of definition 3.6.2 (not including the note) with the following new text:
extent to that the application function and their allocated data are split in sub-functions and
subgroups respectively
4 Abbreviations
Add the following new terms to the existing list of abbreviations:
CT Current Transformer
FACTS Flexible AC Transmission Systems
SGAM Smart Grid Architecture Model
VT Voltage Transformer
5 Power utility automation functions
5.1 General
Replace "utility power automation system" by "power utility automation system".

which is requirement focused. However it should be noted that a structured bridge between
requirements and implementation exists by the Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM) as
referenced in the IEC reference architecture (IEC 62357-1).

Replace, in the first paragraph of 5.2.2, "functions" by "application functions".
Replace, in the first paragraph of 5.2.2, "1 to 11" by "1 to 12".
Replace, in the second paragraph of 5.2.2, "Process level functions" by "Process level
application functions".
Replace, in the third paragraph of 5.2.2, "Bay level functions" by "Bay level application
functions".
Replace, in the third paragraph of 5.2.2, "are functions" by "are all functions".
Replace, in the third paragraph of 5.2.2, "primary equipment of one bay" by "primary equipment
of this one bay".

IEC 2022
Replace, in the seventh paragraph of 5.2.2, in line IF10, "control centre(s)" by "Network Control
Centre(s)".
Add, after line IF11, the following new text:
IF12: generic substation-substation link e.g. for FACTS control
Replace the existing text of 5.2.2, following new item IF12, by the following new text:
Measurements in different kinds e.g. RMS values or synchrophasors, may be part of the
different interfaces. Furthermore, requirements for time synchronization to be covered by the
different interfaces are depending on the application functions.
The cloud(s) around IF2, IF11 and IF12 indicate(s) that there may be also an external
communication system applied for which the requirements as defined in IEC 61850-90-1,
IEC 61850-90-2, IEC 61850-90-5, IEC 61850-90-12 or IEC 61850-80-3 may apply. In case of
implementation based on external communication systems, which are not in accordance with
the data model and services defined in the IEC 61850 series, some kind of protocol conversion
is needed.
NOTE The distribution of the functions in a communication environment may occur through the use of Wide Area
Network (WAN), Local Area Network (LAN) and Process Bus technologies. At requirement level, the functions are
not constrained to be deployed within/over any single communication technology.
The devices of a substation automation system may be installed physically on different
functional levels (station, bay, process). This refers to the physical interpretation of Figure 2:
a) process level devices are typically remote process interfaces like I/Os, intelligent sensors
and actuators connected by a process bus as indicated in Figure 2;
b) bay level devices consist of control, protection or monitoring units per bay;
– 14 – IEC 61850-5:2013/AMD1:2022
IEC 2022
c) station level devices consist of the station computer with a database, the operator’s
workplace, interfaces for remote communication, etc.
5.2.3 The physical allocation of functions and interfaces
Replace, in the first sentence of the second paragraph of 5.2.3, "functions" by "application
functions".
Replace, in the third paragraph of 5.2.3, "functions" by "application functions".

functions may be also moved".
Replace, in the fourth paragraph of 5.2.3, "process level functions" by "process level application
functions".
Replace, in the fourth paragraph of 5.2.3, "serial interfaces" by "interfaces".
Replace, in the sixth paragraph of 5.2.3, "7, 10 and 11" by "7, 10, 11 and 12".

Replace, in the third paragraph of 5.2.4, "The interfaces 4 and 5" by "Very common, the
interfaces 4 and 5".
Replace, in the third paragraph of 5.2.4, "The process bus" by "Very common, the process bus".
Replace, in the fourth paragraph of 5.2.4, "monitoring" by "monitoring/maintenance".
Replace, in the fifth paragraph of 5.2.4, "free allocation of functions" by "free allocation of
application functions".
