FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the 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, the IEC publishes International Standards. 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. The 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 the 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 National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60834-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 57: Power
system control and associated communications.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1988.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
57/406/FDIS 57/425/RVD

PERFORMANCE AND TESTING –
Part 1: Command systems
1 General
1.1 Scope
This part of IEC 60834 applies to teleprotection command systems used to convey command
information, generally in conjunction with protection equipment. It aims at establishing
performance requirements and recommended testing methods for command type teleprotection
equipment. The information conveyed by the teleprotection equipment can be in analogue or
digital form.
The command type teleprotection equipment referred to in this standard can be power line
carrier equipment or voice frequency equipment which is used in connection with various
telecommunication systems, such as power line carrier (PLC), radio links, optical fibre, rented
circuits, leased or privately owned cables. In addition the command type teleprotection can be
digital equipment which is used with a digital telecommunication system or media such as
optical fibres, radio links, leased or privately owned digital links.
The command type teleprotection equipment may be separate or provided as an integral part of
the protection equipment.
In addition to teleprotection equipment performance tests, tests have to be carried out on the
power supply of the teleprotection equipment. All the tests should be regarded as type tests.
NOTE – According to the International Electrotechnical Vocabulary (IEV), a type test is defined as a test of one or
more devices made to a certain design to show that the design meets certain specifications.

2 Characteristics of command type teleprotection systems
The following subclauses deal with the terms used in the description and/or specification of
teleprotection systems (see also 3.3.1).
2.1 Types of teleprotection command schemes
a) Permissive tripping schemes (see 1.5)
This term refers to schemes where the received command initiates tripping in conjunction
with a local protection equipment. Command channels of this type can operate in an audio
frequency band, a PLC frequency band or at a digital bit rate. The channel is often
designed with the premise that dependability of operation should be high even under
conditions when, due to a power system disturbance, the telecommunication medium may
be adversely affected.
b) Intertripping schemes (direct or transfer tripping) (see 1.5)
This term refers to schemes where the received command initiates tripping without
qualification by local protection. Intertrip channels utilise similar principles to permissive trip
channels; however, security against unwanted operation and dependability of correct
operation are prime requirements. Speed of operation is usually sacrificed to meet security
and dependability requirements, particularly in analogue systems.
c) Blocking protection schemes (see 1.5)
This term refers to schemes where the received command blocks the operation of local
protection. These channels utilise similar principles to permissive trip channels; however,
dependability of operation and speed are prime requirements.
2.2 Overall operating time of teleprotection systems
(telecommunication circuit included)
The overall operating time T is the time elapsed between the instant of change in state at the
command input and the instant of the corresponding change in state at the command output,
including propagation time and additional delay due to noise.
The overall operating time of a teleprotection system influences the fault clearance time (see
figure 6).
NOTE – Fault clearance time T as shown in figure 6 is typical only.
c
2.3 Transmission times (telecommunication circuit excluded)
The transmission time of a teleprotection system is the time elapsed between the instant of
