INSTRUMENT TRANSFORMERS –

Part 9: Digital interface for instrument transformers

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 61869-9 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 38:
Instrument transformers.
This first edition replaces the corresponding specific requirements previously contained in
IEC 60044-8, published in 2002.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
38/502/FDIS 38/508/RVD

Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on

INTRODUCTION
General
This standard is a product family standard for instrument transformers. It provides an
application of the standard series IEC 61850, which details layered substation communication
architecture in the world of instrument transformers.
By providing tutorial material such as examples and explanations, it also provides access for
instrument transformer, protective relay and meter experts to concepts and methods applied
in the IEC 61850 series.
Compared to instrument transformers, digital communication technology is subject to on-going
changes which are expected to continue in the future. Significant experience with electronics
integrated directly into instrument transformers has yet to be gathered on a broader basis, as
this type of equipment is not widely spread in the industry and a change of paradigm has not
yet occurred.
Position of this standard in relation to the IEC 61850 series
The IEC 61850 series is a standard intended to be used for communication networks and
systems for power utility automation. The most important parts of this series define:
a) information models for the substation automation system;
b) these information models include both the models of the instrument transformers and
other process equipment (like circuit-breakers and disconnectors), and the models of the
substation automation system (like protection relays and meters). The models are defined
in IEC 61850-7-3 and IEC 61850-7-4;
c) the communication between intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) of the substation
automation system. The abstract models are defined in IEC 61850-7-2 and the mappings
on communication stacks are defined in IEC 61850-8-1 and IEC 61850-9-2;
d) a configuration language used to describe the configuration aspects of the substation
automation system is described in IEC 61850-6;
e) conformance testing of the communication interfaces of the IEDs of the power utility
automation system including their data models. The conformance testing is defined in
IEC 61850-10.
Typically, in a traditional system, IEDs like bay level controllers or protection relays interface
directly through analogue signals to instrument transformers. In that case, the data models of
the instrument transformers are implemented in these bay level devices. However, this is not
the only realization. In the case where electronics are integrated directly into electronic LPIT,
the above-mentioned data models should be implemented within the instrument transformer
and the instrument transformer needs to support a communication interface. The part of an
electronic LPIT that does this is known as the merging unit.
IEC 61850, being a system oriented standard series, leaves many options open in order to
support present and future requirements of all sizes of substations at all voltage levels.
To reduce the engineering amount required to achieve interoperability for the digital interface
between instrument transformers and equipment that uses the digital signal (like protective
relays, meters or bay level controllers), this standard specifies additional constraints on
implementing a digital communication interface.
The IEC 61869-9 standard:
– replaces the IEC 60044-8 digital solution;

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
SIST EN IEC 61869-9:2019
– 8 – IEC 61869-9:2016  IEC 2016
– provides a product standard for instrument transformers with a digital interface according
to the IEC 61850 series; similar to what IEC 62271-3 offers for switchgear;
– includes backward compatibility for the UCA International Users Group Implementation
Guideline for Digital Interface to Instrument Transformers Using IEC 61850-9-2;
– uses IEC 61588 based time synchronization in accordance with IEC/IEEE 61850-9-3, with
an option for 1PPS (pulse per second).

INSTRUMENT TRANSFORMERS –

Part 9: Digital interface for instrument transformers

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 61869-9 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 38:
Instrument transformers.
This first edition replaces the corresponding specific requirements previously contained in
IEC 60044-8, published in 2002.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
38/502/FDIS 38/508/RVD

Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

clause/subclause applies. When this standard states “addition”, “modification” or
“replacement”, the relevant text in Part 6 is to be adapted accordingly.
When a particular clause/subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in Part 6, that
clause/subclause applies. When part 6 states “addition”, “modification” or “replacement”, the
relevant text in Part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
For additional clauses, subclauses, figures, tables, annexes or note, the following numbering
system is used:
– clauses, subclauses, tables, figures and notes that are numbered starting from 901 are
additional to those in Part 1;
– additional annexes are lettered 9A, 9B, etc.

INTRODUCTION
General
This standard is a product family standard for instrument transformers. It provides an
application of the standard series IEC 61850, which details layered substation communication
architecture in the world of instrument transformers.
By providing tutorial material such as examples and explanations, it also provides access for
instrument transformer, protective relay and meter experts to concepts and methods applied
in the IEC 61850 series.
Compared to instrument transformers, digital communication technology is subject to on-going
changes which are expected to continue in the future. Significant experience with electronics
integrated directly into instrument transformers has yet to be gathered on a broader basis, as
this type of equipment is not widely spread in the industry and a change of paradigm has not
yet occurred.
Position of this standard in relation to the IEC 61850 series
The IEC 61850 series is a standard intended to be used for communication networks and
systems for power utility automation. The most important parts of this series define:
a) information models for the substation automation system;
b) these information models include both the models of the instrument transformers and
other process equipment (like circuit-breakers and disconnectors), and the models of the
substation automation system (like protection relays and meters). The models are defined
in IEC 61850-7-3 and IEC 61850-7-4;
c) the communication between intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) of the substation
automation system. The abstract models are defined in IEC 61850-7-2 and the mappings
on communication stacks are defined in IEC 61850-8-1 and IEC 61850-9-2;
d) a configuration language used to describe the configuration aspects of the substation
automation system is described in IEC 61850-6;
e) conformance testing of the communication interfaces of the IEDs of the power utility
automation system including their data models. The conformance testing is defined in
IEC 61850-10.
Typically, in a traditional system, IEDs like bay level controllers or protection relays interface
directly through analogue signals to instrument transformers. In that case, the data models of
the instrument transformers are implemented in these bay level devices. However, this is not
the only realization. In the case where electronics are integrated directly into electronic LPIT,
the above-mentioned data models should be implemented within the instrument transformer
and the instrument transformer needs to support a communication interface. The part of an
electronic LPIT that does this is known as the merging unit.
IEC 61850, being a system oriented standard series, leaves many options open in order to
support present and future requirements of all sizes of substations at all voltage levels.
To reduce the engineering amount required to achieve interoperability for the digital interface
between instrument transformers and equipment that uses the digital signal (like protective
relays, meters or bay level controllers), this standard specifies additional constraints on
implementing a digital communication interface.
The IEC 61869-9 standard:
– replaces the IEC 60044-8 digital solution;

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------

SIST EN IEC 61869-9:2019

– provides a product standard for instrument transformers with a digital interface according
to the IEC 61850 series; similar to what IEC 62271-3 offers for switchgear;
– includes backward compatibility for the UCA International Users Group Implementation
Guideline for Digital Interface to Instrument Transformers Using IEC 61850-9-2;
– uses IEC 61588 based time synchronization in accordance with IEC/IEEE 61850-9-3, with
an option for 1PPS (pulse per second).
