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 specifications, 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 61850-4 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 57: Power
system control and associated communications
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
57/558/FDIS 57/573/RVD

3 Definitions
For the purpose of this part of IEC 61850, the following definitions apply:
3.1
supporting tools
those that support the user in the engineering, the operation and the management of the SAS
and its IEDs. The following tasks can be implemented:
– engineering;
– project management;
– parameter change(s);
– diagnostics;
– testing;
– documentation;
– other services.
NOTE  The tools are usually part of the SAS.
3.1.1
engineering tools
those tools that support the creation and documentation of the conditions for adapting an SAS
to the specific substation and customer requirements. They are divided into project manage-
ment, parameterization and documentation tools.
3.2
expandability
the criteria for the efficient extension of an SAS (hardware and functional) by use of the
engineering tools
3.3
flexibility
the criteria for the fast and efficient implementation of functional changes including hardware
3.4
scalability
the criteria for a cost effective SAS while recognizing various functionalities, various IEDs,
substation sizes and substation voltage ranges
3.5
parameters
variables which define the behaviour of functions of the SAS and its IEDs within a given range
of values
3.5.1
system parameters
data which define the interaction of IEDs in the SAS. They are especially important in the:
– configuration of the SAS;
– communication between IEDs;
– marshalling of data between IEDs;
– processing and visualization of data from other IEDs (for example, at the station level)

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------

SIST EN 61850-4:2004
61850-4  IEC:2002 – 13 –
3.6
IED-parameter set
all parameter values needed for the definition of the behaviour of the IED and its adaptation to
the substation conditions. Where the IED has to operate autonomously, the parameter-set can
be generated without system parameters using an IED-specific parameterization tool. Where
the IED is a part of the SAS the parameter set may include system parameters, which should
be coordinated by a general parameterization tool at the SAS level
3.7
SAS-parameter set
all parameter values needed for the definition of the behaviour of the overall SAS and its
adaptation to the substation conditions. The parameter set includes the IED-parameter sets of
all participating IEDs
3.8
remote terminal unit (RTU)
typically used as an outstation in a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system.
An RTU may act as an interface between the communication network and the substation
equipment. The function of an RTU may reside in one IED or may be distributed
3.9
SAS product family
different IEDs of one manufacturer with various functionalities and with the ability to perform
substation automation systems. The IEDs of a product family are unified in relation to the
design, the operational handling, the mounting and wiring conditions and they use common or
coordinated supporting tools
3.10
SAS installation
the concrete instance of a substation automation system consisting of multiple interoperable
IEDs of one or more manufacturers
3.11
configuration list
an overview of all compatible hardware and software versions of components and IEDs
including the software versions of relevant supporting tools operating together in an SAS-
product family. Additionally, the configuration list contains the supported transmission protocols
for communication with IEDs of other manufacturers
3.12
manufacturer
the producer of IEDs and/or supporting tools. A manufacturer may be able to deliver an SAS
solely by use of his own IEDs and supporting tools (SAS product family)
3.13
system integrator
a turnkey deliverer of SAS installations. The responsibility of system integration includes the
engineering, the delivery and mounting of all participating IEDs, the factory and site acceptance
tests and the trial operation. The quality assurance, the maintenance and spare delivery
obligations and the warranty shall be agreed in the contract between the system integrator and
the customer

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

SIST EN 61850-4:2004
61850-4  IEC:2002 – 15 –
3.14
system life cycle
the term has two specific meanings:
a) for the manufacturer, the time period between the start of the production of a newly
developed SAS product family and the discontinuation of support for the relevant IEDs;
b) for the customer, the time period between the commissioning of the SAS-installation mainly
based on a SAS product family and the decommissioning of the latest SAS-installation from
the same family
3.15
test equipment
all tools and instruments which simulate and verify the input/outputs of the operating
environment of the SAS such as switchgear, transformers, network control centres or con-
nected telecommunication units on the one side, and the communication channels between the
IEDs of the SAS on the other
3.16
conformance test
the check of data flow on communication channels in accordance with the standard conditions
concerning access organization, formats and bit sequences, time synchronization, timing,
signal form and level, reaction to errors. The conformance test can be carried out and certified
for the standard or specially described parts of the standard. The conformance test should be
carried out by an ISO 9001 certified organization or system integrator
3.17
system test
the check of correct behaviour of the IEDs and of the overall SAS under various application
conditions. The system test marks the final stage of the development of IEDs as part of a SAS
product family
3.18
type test
the verification of correct behaviour of the IEDs of the SAS by use of the system tested
software under the environmental test conditions corresponding with the technical data.
This marks the final stage of the hardware development and is the precondition for the start of
the production. This test must be carried out with IEDs that have been manufactured through
the normal production cycle
3.19
factory acceptance test (FAT)
customer agreed functional tests of the specifically manufactured SAS-installation or its parts,
using the parameter set for the planned application. This test should be carried out in the
factory of the system integrator by the use of process simulating test equipment
3.20
site acceptance test (SAT)
the verification of each data and control point and the correct functionality inside the SAS and
between the SAS and its operating environment at the whole installed plant by use of the final
parameter set. The SAT is a precondition for the SAS being put into operation

5.1 Introduction
The engineering includes:
– the definition of the necessary hardware configuration of the SAS: i.e. the definition of the
IEDs and their interfaces with one another and to the environment as shown in figure 1;
– the adaptation of functionality and signal quantities to the specific operational requirements
by use of parameters;
– the documentation of all specific definitions (i.e. parameter set, terminal connections, etc.).

61850-4  IEC:2002 – 19 –
As shown in figure 1, the SAS consists of different IEDs which communicate with each other
via communication channels and which execute tasks concerning interactions with the environ-
ment of the SAS, such as:
– telecommunication environment (TE);
• network control centre(s);
• subordinate systems;
• teleprotection.
NOTE Teleprotection is outside the scope of the IEC 61850 series.
– the human as a local operator.
– process environment (PE) like switchgear, transformer, auxiliaries.
Typical IEDs may be:
– for the telecommunication environment:
• gateways;
• converters;
• RTUs (telecommunication side);
• protection relays (teleprotection side).
– for the human machine interface (HMI):
• gateways;
• personal computers;
• workstations;
• IEDs with integrated HMIs.
– for the process environment (PE):
• bay control units;
• protection relays;
• RTUs (process side);
• meters;
• autonomous controllers (i.e. voltage controllers);
• transducers;
• digital VTs and CTs.
5.2 Categories and types of parameters
5.2.1 Classification
Parameters are data, which control and support the operation of:
– hardware configuration (composition of IEDs);
– software of IEDs;
– process environment (primary equipment and auxiliaries);
– HMI with different supporting tools; and
– telecommunication environment
in a substation automation system (SAS) and its IEDs in such a way that the operations of the
substation and customer specific requirements are fulfilled.

The total set of parameters of an SAS is termed the SAS-parameter set. It consists of the used
parts of the parameter sets of all participating IEDs.
With respect to handling methods and input procedure, the parameters are divided into two
categories:
– configuration parameters;
– operating parameters.
With respect to origin and function, the parameters are divided into types:
– system parameters;
– process parameters;
– functional parameters.
In figure 2, the overview of the parameter structure is given.

The categories and types of parameters in figure 2 are described below.
5.2.2 Parameter categories
5.2.2.1 Configuration parameters
The configuration parameters define the global behaviour of the whole SAS and its IEDs. As a
rule, they are only assigned a value during the initial parameterization, but they should be
updated when extending or functionally changing the SAS.
The generation and modification of the configuration parameters should be carried out off-line,
i.e. separately from the operation of the SAS. During the input of configuration parameters, a
temporary restriction of the SAS operation is allowed.
The configuration parameters usually include system and process parameters.

61850-4  IEC:2002 – 23 –
5.2.2.2 Operating parameters
The operating parameters define the behaviour of partial functions of the SAS. They shall be
changeable on-line during the normal operation of the SAS. The modification is allowed without
restricting the SAS operation and within a framework of ranges of parameter values. Protection
functions, as far as combined in IEDs with other functions, shall not be influenced during the
parameterization of these functions.
The range and the basic settings of these parameters are determined at the initial
parameterization or at a modification stage, separate from the operation of the SAS. The
operating parameters can be put into the on-line SAS via:
– telecommunication interface;
–HMI;
– integrated service interface of the IEDs.
The operating parameters usually include process and functional parameters, for example limit
values, target values, command output times, delay times in switching sequences, etc.
