What is PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3 - Communication networks and systems for power utility automation about?
PD IEC/TR 61850 is a series on communication networks and systems for power utility automation.
Communication networks are a group of nodes interconnected by telecommunications links that are used to exchange messages between the nodes. PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3 is a technical report, that describes the requirements and gives an overview of the technical solution for using Web Protocols as a new communication mapping (SCSM) for the IEC 61850 standard.
PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3 illustrates a two-step approach:
- Collection of the use cases and requirements based upon emerging Smart Grid architectural considerations, considering the new extended scope of IEC 61850.
- Evaluation and selection of technologies in order to build a consistent SCSM.
Note: PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3 excludes:
- Modification of objects specified in IEC 61850-7-3 and IEC 61850-7-4
- Introduction of several competing web protocols profiles

Why should you use PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3 - Communication networks and systems for power utility automation?
The usage of the IEC 61850 communication standard is largely spreading over all the domains connected to the smart grid, pushing the usage of technologies adapted to the connection of a very large number of applications and devices across the intra/internet. The involved domains typically use already well-established protocols for exchanging data with IT-level applications like resource planning, asset, and maintenance management, etc. Therefore, it becomes imperative to provide an integration strategy that allows the integration of IEC 61850 into these various disparate protocols and information. In PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3 Web Protocols are considered the most appropriate technology for communication with backend systems and possibly field devices.
PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3 presents an overview of the main involved sub-systems and indicates for which interactions the new IEC 61850-8-2 web protocols mapping is intended. The sub-systems mentioned in the picture are then described together with other systems and stakeholders considered in PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3. The usage of the various ACSI classes defined in PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3 has been studied for each domain. The synthesis presented in PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3 shows that all the classes using the client/server model need to be mapped, as well as the configuration services for the classes using a peer-to-peer model.
Using PD IEC/TR 61850-80-3 you can describe the requirements and gives an overview of the technical solution for using Web Protocols as a new communication mapping (SCSM) for the IEC 61850 standard.
