Using Nerc Cip And Iec 61850 To Implement Substation Networks

摘要

FERC and NERC timetables for cyber security compliance are forcing significant changes in utility networking and computing infrastructure in North America. Throughout the world, security planning and implementation are under increased scrutiny. In addition, IEC 61850 is gaining traction as an international standard for network communications in substations. In this environment, utilities can look at compliance as merely an intrusive requirement, forcing investment - or, alternatively, utilities can view the necessary enhancements to their infrastructure as an opportunity for much broader improvements and benefits.
