Using IEC 61850 Protocol in Automation Systems of High Voltage

摘要

Growing Development of new metric technology, communications on one side, and variety in IT and incremental information on the other side in designing and manufacturing automation station systems make the pioneers of this industry change the system with the aim of creating "a world, a technology, a standard" in this industry. This evolution led to create a new technique for designing automation systems which is called IEC 61850 standard. Considering the agreement on developing and using this standard, applying this in station automation systems was taken into account since 2005. The new technology needs new interfaces to connect the high voltage switchgears such as modern current and voltage measurement transformers to station automation control systems. By introducing the new technology and using IEC 61850 protocols, designing automation systems with decentralized structure is possible and has a lot of advantages, however great care is needed in designing such system so that system reliability will not be impaired. In this thesis, for better understanding, we first explain briefly the old station structures and their transition and then the IEC 61850 standard structure will be investigated and this investigation includes the way of data transfer. Finally we refer to the effect of this standard on the structure of high voltage station automation system. In power distribution systems, IP and IEC-61850 are introduced as a security ring with more importance of communication, that in the meantime, IEC-61850 as the new international standard electrical station, is capable of providing the Integration, protection, control, measurement and monitoring functions within the stations with high-speed. So not only can prove the importance and the need to replace the IEC-61850 standard as the protocol with high speed data transfer capability, but also we will also see reducing the time and power transmission losses in the automation network.
