Wind energy generation systems - Part 25-1: Communications for monitoring and control of wind power plants - Overall description of principles and models (IEC 61400-25-1:2017)
The focus of IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is on the communications between wind power plant
components such as wind turbines and actors such as SCADA systems. Internal
communication within wind power plant components is beyond the scope of
IEC 6140025
(all parts).
IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is designed for a communication environment supported by a clientserver
model. Three areas are defined, that are modelled separately to ensure the scalability
of implementations:
1) wind power plant information models,
2) information exchange model, and
3) mapping of these two models to a standard communication profile.
The wind power plant information model and the information exchange model, viewed
together, constitute an interface between client and server. In this conjunction, the wind
power plant information model serves as an interpretation frame for accessible wind power
plant data. The wind power plant information model is used by the server to offer the client a
uniform, component-oriented view of the wind power plant data. The information exchange
model reflects the whole active functionality of the server. IEC 61400-25 (all parts) enables
connectivity between a heterogeneous combination of client and servers from different
manufacturers and suppliers.
As depicted in Figure 1, IEC 61400-25 (all parts) defines a server with the following aspects:
– information provided by a wind power plant component, for example, ‘wind turbine rotor
speed’ or ‘total power production of a certain time interval’ is modelled and made available
for access. The information modelled in IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is defined in
IEC 61400252
and IEC 61400-25-6,
– services to exchange values of the modelled information defined in IEC 61400-25-3,
– mapping to a communication profile, providing a protocol stack to carry the exchanged
values from the modelled information (IEC 61400-25-4).
IEC 61400-25 (all parts) only defines how to model the information, information exchange and
mapping to specific communication protocols. IEC 61400-25 (all parts) excludes a definition of
how and where to implement the communication interface, the application program interface
and implementation recommendations. However, the objective of IEC 6140025
(all parts) is
that the information associated with a single wind power plant component (such as a wind
turbine) is accessible through a corresponding logical device.
This part of IEC 61400-25 gives an overall description of the principles and models used in
IEC 6140025
(all parts).
NOTE IEC 61400-25 (all parts) focuses on the common, non-vendor-specific information. Those information items
that tend to vary greatly between vendor-specific implementations can for example be specified in bilateral
agreements, in user groups, or in amendments to IEC 61400-25 (all parts).

NEW!IEC 61400-25-1:2017 est disponible sous forme de IEC 61400-25-1:2017 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.
L’IEC 61400-25-1:2017 fournit une description globale des principes et des modèles utilisés dans la série IEC 61400-25, qui est conçue pour un environnement de communication fondé sur un modèle client-serveur. Trois domaines sont définis, qui sont modélisés séparément pour assurer l’extensibilité des systèmes mis en œuvre: les modèles d’information des centrales éoliennes, le modèle d’échange d’information, et le mapping des deux modèles précédents à un profil de communication normalisé. Cette nouvelle édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: harmonisation générale du texte et des modèles présentés avec les autres parties de la série IEC 61400-25, harmonisation des définitions des autres normes connexes.
Sistemi za proizvodnjo energije na veter - 25-1. del: Komunikacije za spremljanje in nadzor vetrnih elektrarn - Celoten opis načel in modelov (IEC 61400-25-1:2017)
Standard IEC 61400-25 (vsi deli) se osredotoča na komunikacije med sestavnimi deli vetrnih elektrarn, kot so vetrne turbine, in elementi, kot so sistemi SCADA. Komunikacije znotraj sestavnih delov vetrnih elektrarn niso zajete v standardu IEC 61400-25 (vsi deli).
Standard IEC 61400-25 (vsi deli) je zasnovan za komunikacijsko okolje, ki ga podpira model odjemalec-strežnik. Opredeljena so tri področja, ki so oblikovana posebej, da se zagotovi nadgradljivost uporabljenih različic:
1) informacijski modeli vetrnih elektrarn,
2) model za izmenjavo informacij,
3) preslikava teh dveh modelov v standardni komunikacijski profil.
Informacijski model vetrne elektrarne in model za izmenjavo informacij skupaj sestavljata vmesnik med odjemalcem in strežnikom. Informacijski model vetrne elektrarne se uporablja kot okvir za interpretacijo dostopnih podatkov vetrne elektrarne. Strežnik uporablja informacijski model vetrne elektrarne, da odjemalcu ponuja enoten pregled podatkov vetrne elektrarne, ki je osredotočen na sestavne dele elektrarne. Model za izmenjavo informacij predstavlja aktivne funkcije strežnika. Standard IEC 61400-25 (vsi deli) omogoča povezljivost med raznolikimi odjemalci in strežniki različnih proizvajalcev in dobaviteljev.
Kot je prikazano na sliki 1, standard IEC 61400-25 (vsi deli) opredeljuje strežnik z naslednjimi vidiki:
– informacija, ki jo posreduje sestavni del vetrne elektrarne, na primer »hitrost rotorja vetrne turbine« ali »skupna proizvodnja energije v določenem časovnem intervalu«, se modelira in postane dostopna. Informacija, ki se modelira skladno s standardom IEC 61400-25, je opredeljena v delih IEC 61400-25-2 in IEC 61400-25-6;
– storitve za izmenjavo vrednosti modelirane informacije so opredeljene v standardu IEC 61400-25-3;
– preslikava v komunikacijski profil, kar zagotavlja sklad protokolov za prenos izmenjanih vrednosti iz modelirane informacije (IEC 61400-25-4).
Standard IEC 61400-25 (vsi deli) opredeljuje zgolj način modeliranja informacij, izmenjavo informacij in preslikavo v določen komunikacijski protokol. Standard IEC 61400-25 (vsi deli) ne določa, kako in kje je treba uvesti komunikacijski vmesnik, programski vmesnik in priporočila za izvajanje. Vendar cilj standarda IEC 61400-25 (vsi deli) je omogočiti dostop do informacij posameznega sestavnega dela vetrne elektrarne (npr. vetrne turbine) prek ustrezne logične naprave.
Ta del standarda IEC 61400-25 podaja splošen opis načel in modelov, uporabljenih v skupini standardov IEC 6140025 (vsi deli).
OPOMBA 1: Standard IEC 61400-25 (vsi deli) se osredotoča na skupne informacije, ki niso vezane na določenega prodajalca. Te elemente informacij, ki se običajno zelo razlikujejo glede na uporabo, značilno za določenega prodajalca, je mogoče na primer določiti v dvostranskih pogodbah, v skupinah uporabnikov ali v dopolnilih standarda IEC 61400-25 (vsi deli).

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 IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61400-25-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 88:
Wind energy generation systems.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2006. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) general harmonization of text and overview models with the other parts of the
IEC 61400-25 series,
b) harmonization of definitions in other related standards.

Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in
the report on voting indicated in the above table.
This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The title of TC 88 was changed in 2015 from Wind turbines to Wind energy generation
systems.
A list of all parts in the IEC 61400 series, published under the general titles Wind turbines and
Wind energy generation systems can be found on the IEC website.
The users of IEC 61400-25 have formed a community, USE61400-25. For further information
see http://www.use61400-25.com.
Attached to the release of the IEC 61400-25 standard series and in addition to the standard
IEC maintenance process, a specific maintenance process is set up to handle technical
issues raised after publication. Here are the main principles:
• Technical issues (called TISSUES) are collected from the release of the new document in
cooperation with the user group for the IEC 61400-25 standard series USE61400-25.
• The collected TISSUES can be categorized in two groups:
– TISSUES that can threaten interoperability between implementations of the standard
and that need either corrections or clarifications (“IntOp” TISSUES),
– TISSUES that propose new features that will be implemented in future versions of the
standard (“next edition” TISSUES).
• IntOp TISSUES require immediate clarification and are following a transparent fixing
process handled by the user group for the IEC 61400-25 standard series together with the
editors of the IEC 61400-25 standard series.
• The detailed specification of this process, the list of TISSUES, associated fix, their status
and impact on implementation and certification are accessible through the USE61400-25
web site http://www.use61400-25.com.
• IEC recommends implementing the proposed fixes to IntOp TISSUES, as soon as they
have reached the “green” status. The list of TISSUES which are implemented in an
intelligent electronic device (IED) should be transparently stated by its manufacturer.

INTRODUCTION
IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is intended for vendors (manufacturers, suppliers), operators,
owners, planners, and designers of wind power plants as well as system integrators and utility
companies operating in the wind energy market. IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is intended to be
accepted and to be used world-wide as the international standard for communications in the
domain of wind power plants.
IEC 61400-25 (all parts) has been developed in order to provide a uniform communications
basis for the monitoring and control of wind power plants. It defines wind power plant specific
information, the mechanisms for information exchange and the mapping to communication
protocols. In this regard, IEC 61400-25 (all parts) defines details required to exchange the
available information with wind power plant components in a manufacturer-independent
environment. This is done by definitions made in this part of IEC 61400-25 or by reference to
other standards.
The wind power plant specific information describes the crucial and common process and
configuration information. The information is hierarchically structured and covers for example
common information found in the rotor, generator, converter, grid connection and the like. The
information may be simple data (including timestamp and quality) and configuration values or
more comprehensive attributes and descriptive information, for example engineering unit,
scale, description, reference, statistical or historical information. All information of a wind
power plant defined in IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is name tagged. A concise meaning of each
data is given. The standardized wind power plant information can be extended by means of a
name space extension rule. All data, attributes and descriptive information can be exchanged
by corresponding services.
The implementation of IEC 61400-25 (all parts) allows SCADA systems (supervisory control
and data acquisition) to communicate with wind turbines from multiple vendors. The
standardized self-description (contained either in an XML file or retrieved online from a
device) can be used to configure SCADA applications. Standardization of SCADA applications
are excluded in IEC 61400-25 (all parts) but standardized common wind turbine information
provides means for re-use of applications and operator screens for wind turbines from
different vendors. From a utility perspective, unified definitions of common data minimize
conversion and re-calculation of data values for evaluation and comparison of all their wind
power plants.
IEC 61400-25 (all parts) can be applied to any wind power plant operation concept, i.e. both
individual wind turbines, clusters and more integrated groups of wind turbines. The application
area of IEC 61400-25 (all parts) covers components required for the operation of wind power
plants, i.e. not only the wind turbine generator, but also the meteorological system, the
electrical system, and the wind power plant management system. The wind power plant
specific information in IEC 61400-25 (all parts) excludes information associated with feeders
and substations. Substation communication is covered within IEC 61850 (all parts).
The intention of IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is to enable components from different vendors to
communicate with other components, at any location. Object-oriented data structures can
make the engineering and handling of large amounts of information provided by wind power
plants less time-consuming and more efficient. IEC 61400-25 (all parts) supports scalability,
connectivity, and interoperability.
IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is a basis for simplifying the contracting of the roles the wind turbine
and SCADA systems have to play. The crucial part of the wind power plant information, the
information exchange methods, and the communication stacks are standardized. They build a
basis to which procurement specifications and contracts could easily refer.

IEC 61400-25 is organized in several parts.
• IEC 61400-25-1 offers an introductory orientation, crucial requirements, and a modelling
guide.
• IEC 61400-25-2 and IEC61400-25-6 contain the description of the information model, a
uniform, component-oriented view of the wind power plant data, including extensions for
condition monitoring.
• IEC 61400-25-3 describes the information exchange model. It reflects the functionality of
the server.
• IEC 61400-25-4 presents five alternative mappings of the information model and
information exchange model to a standard communication profile. The choice depends on
the application and the functionality and performance needed.
• IEC 61400-25-5 describes test cases for conformance testing of implementations.
NOTE Performance of IEC 61400-25 (all parts) implementations are application specific. IEC 61400-25 (all parts)
does not guarantee a certain level of performance. This is beyond the scope of IEC 61400-25 (all parts). However,
there is no underlying limitation in the communications technology to prevent high speed application (millisecond
level responses).

WIND ENERGY GENERATION SYSTEMS –
Part 25-1: Communications for monitoring and control of
wind power plants – Overall description of principles and models
1 Scope
The focus of IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is on the communications between wind power plant
components such as wind turbines and actors such as SCADA systems. Internal
communication within wind power plant components is beyond the scope of
IEC 61400-25 (all parts).
IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is designed for a communication environment supported by a client-
server model. Three areas are defined, that are modelled separately to ensure the scalability
of implementations:
1) wind power plant information models,
2) information exchange model, and
3) mapping of these two models to a standard communication profile.
The wind power plant information model and the information exchange model, viewed
together, constitute an interface between client and server. In this conjunction, the wind
power plant information model serves as an interpretation frame for accessible wind power
plant data. The wind power plant information model is used by the server to offer the client a
uniform, component-oriented view of the wind power plant data. The information exchange
model reflects the whole active functionality of the server. IEC 61400-25 (all parts) enables
connectivity between a heterogeneous combination of client and servers from different
manufacturers and suppliers.
As depicted in Figure 1, IEC 61400-25 (all parts) defines a server with the following aspects:
– information provided by a wind power plant component, for example, ‘wind turbine rotor
speed’ or ‘total power production of a certain time interval’ is modelled and made available
for access. The information modelled in IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is defined in
IEC 61400-25-2 and IEC 61400-25-6,
– services to exchange values of the modelled information defined in IEC 61400-25-3,
– mapping to a communication profile, providing a protocol stack to carry the exchanged
values from the modelled information (IEC 61400-25-4).
IEC 61400-25 (all parts) only defines how to model the information, information exchange and
mapping to specific communication protocols. IEC 61400-25 (all parts) excludes a definition of
how and where to implement the communication interface, the application program interface
and implementation recommendations. However, the objective of IEC 61400-25 (all parts) is
that the information associated with a single wind power plant component (such as a wind
turbine) is accessible th
