About the complete set of manuals for an IED
The user’s manual (UM) is a complete set of five different manuals:
Application
manual
Technical
reference
manual
Installation and
commissioning
manual
Operator´s
manual
Engineering
guide
en06000097.vsd
The Application Manual (AM) contains application descriptions, setting guidelines and setting
parameters sorted per function. The application manual should be used to find out when and for
what purpose a typical protection function could be used. The manual should also be used when
calculating settings.
The Technical Reference Manual (TRM) contains application and functionality descriptions
and it lists function blocks, logic diagrams, input and output signals, setting parameters and technical data sorted per function. The technical reference manual should be used as a technical reference during the engineering phase, installation and commissioning phase, and during normal
service.
The Installation and Commissioning Manual (ICM) contains instructions on how to install
and commission the protection IED. The manual can also be used as a reference during periodic
testing. The manual covers procedures for mechanical and electrical installation, energizing and
checking of external circuitry, setting and configuration as well as verifying settings and performing directional tests. The chapters are organized in the chronological order (indicated by
chapter/section numbers) in which the protection IED should be installed and commissioned.
The Operator’s Manual (OM) contains instructions on how to operate the protection IED during normal service once it has been commissioned. The operator’s manual can be used to find
out how to handle disturbances or how to view calculated and measured network data in order
to determine the cause of a fault.
The IED 670 Engineering guide (EG) contains instructions on how to engineer the IED 670
products. The manual guides to use the different tool components for IED 670 engineering. It
also guides how to handle the tool component available to read disturbance files from the IEDs
on the basis of the IEC 61850 definitions. The third part is an introduction about the diagnostic
tool components available for IED 670 products and the PCM 600 tool.

About this chapter
This chapter gives a short definition and task description for those parts of the IEC 61850 standard which are needed to do station engineering and process signal routing. A reference to the
IEC 61850 parts and clauses is given where needed. The reason for this chapter is to have the
common platform about the tasks and the used wording. It can and will not be an introduction
to the standard.

Station engineering in IEC 61850
The way of engineering and configuring a station according to IEC 61850 standard is described
in part 6 of the standard. The title of this part is: “Configuration description language for communication in electrical substations related to IEDs”
This chapter contains some explanations about the definitions made by the standard. They may
be requested to get a better understanding and as a reference when the different engineering steps
made with the tools PCM 600/CCT are described. It is expected, recommended that the reader
has a general knowledge about the IEC 61850 standard and especially of the parts 6 and 7.

Chapter 2
IEC 61850 station engineering
The standard defines two tools and four file types for station engineering. The above figure
shows these tools and files in their relation. In the ideal situation from top down the engineering
process and the used tools and files have the following relation:
•
•
•
•
System Configurator tool (SC)
- Import a station.SSD file when available. If not continue with the next step
- Import the ied.ICD files of the products which will be used
- When no station.SSD file is available, configure the primary equipment
(Busbar, Transformer, Apparatus, connections etc. to voltage level and bays.
Make a single line diagram of the station. Remark: This step and the next one
is not direct needed to do signal engineering in a station for IEC 61850 based
communication. A minimum configuration of the plant structure is requested
only.
- Place the Logical nodes to the primary equipment they belong to within a
bay.
- Configure the communication with their subnetworks.
- Place the physical IEDs in the communication subnetwork and define the access points per IED
- Place the IEDs with their Logical devices and Logical nodes in the plant
structure
- Do signal engineering. Configure DataSets, Control Blocks and link the
communication path between server and clients or between servers
(GOOSE).
- Export the complete station configuration in the station.SSD file for further
use by the various IED Configurator tools
IED Configurator tool (IC)
- Import the station.SCD file and extract the information valid and used for
each used IED.
- Do additional engineering steps when necessary (vendor specific)
- Check for received GOOSE messages and do GOOSE signal marshalling
when necessary
- Prepare the ied.CID file and download the file to the IED
- Precondition in this case: The IED is fully engineered to its function in the
project. The ied.ICD file was exported with the complete configuration to the
SC tool as described above.
SSD file = System Specification Description file
- This file describes the single line diagram of the substation and the required
Logical nodes. It is expected that the utility is able to support the project with
such a file.
ICD file = IED Capability Description file
- This file describes the full capability in Logical nodes and Logical devices of
an IED without any relation to the substation and communication organization. This is the basis for the SC tool about the volume and capability of the
selected IED for signal engineering. This file is possible in two principle
variants. First it is a general description without a direct project specific configuration and programming. This file describes the general capability. Second it is the ied.ICD file of the full engineered IED according to project

IEC 61850 station engineering
specification and requirements. In this case the volume of available Logical
nodes and therefore signals will be the final one. Which variant is used must
be clarified within the project.
SCD file = Station Configuration Description file
- An SCD file is given when the substation and communication section contains configured values. This file contains all IEDs, a communication configuration section and a substation section.
CID file = Configured IED Description file
- The CID file contents is not part of the standard. It is vendor specific. It
should contain the result of the engineering process on IED and station level.
As it can be seen there are various possibilities in which order the engineering
will be done. Especially the bay level IED for protection and control may need in
most cases project specific adaptations and configuration, which has influence on
the volume of used Logical nodes and therefore data objects. The concept allows
to re-import an extended ied.ICD file and to add or delete signals in the station.
The tools have to support this concept.

The description in the following sections will reference to an example station. This is relevant
for the description of the object designation and signal addressing requirements.
A substation of any size consists of buildings, a lot of primary equipment, substation control
equipment and a lot more. Each item has a name and will be identified by explaining to which
part it belongs to. The rules will differ from country to country and by each utility.

Designation model of IEC 61850
Chapter 2
IEC 61850 station engineering
The IEC 61850 standard is based on the hierarchical addressing and designation model in a station. It follows in this way the structure of the substation equipment independent of IED structure and organization.
This designation and addressing model is also visible in the IEC 61850 telegrams because the
address is presented in MMS as an ASCII string, so the address can be seen directly in a readable
form.
The above figure shows a virtual example station. The identification is based on the IEC 61346
concepts. Reasons to use the IEC 61346 model:
•
•
•
•
•
the IEC 61346 has the task to define structuring principles and reference designations.
the standard is international in the same way as IEC 61850 is
the standard has made a concept which can be used in all industrial systems independent of a language, project etc.
the standard use only single characters per level which makes the total designation very short and therefore saves bytes to be transmitted.
by using this designation model in IEC 61850 it allows to use an easy project independent identification.
The designation of a Logical node and its signals (DO) is needed to identify it to the primary
object etc. The hierarchical order in a substation is the path to identify the LN.

The designation path to get the position of the circuit breaker as an example would be:
•
•
DeStat => E1 => Q1 => LD1 => QA1 => XCBR1 => Pos => stVal
in IEC 61850 = DeStat.E1Q1/LD1QA1XCBR1.Pos.stVal
and for the operate signal of the time overcurrent protection:

•
DeStat => E1 => Q1 => LD2 => P => PTOC => Op
in IEC 61850 = DeStat.E1Q1/LD2P.PTOC.Op

Designation model of IEC 61850
Chapter 2
IEC 61850 station engineering
The above model of designation identification is possible when the station configuration is based
on the “FuncName” method in IED 61850. This is specified in the Header section of the SCL
file. The standard identifies these object or signal designations as the technical key. The standard
recommends to use the IEC 61346 based designation model, but it is not a must. But a similar
naming structure is requested when an existing identification concept has to be used.
2.1
IEC 61346 designation model used for IEC 61850
Basics of the IEC 61346 standard:
•
•
•
•
three different views are defined
- the functional view (identified by =)
- the product view (identified by -)
- the location view (identified by +)
to separate two levels in a row the character “.” is used. It is allowed to leave the
“.” out, when the last character is a digit and the first character of the next level
is a letter.
the transition from one view to another is visible when both identification signs
are used in the sequence from > to. E.g. =-QA1 indicates this is a transition from
functional view “=” to product view “-”. The functional view is here the bay Q1
and the product is the circuit breaker QA1.
each level is represented by one character. A second character is used to identify
a type within a level, e.g. QB = HV switching equipment of type disconnector,
QA = circuit breaker and QC = grounding disconnectors.
The IEC 61346 defines the rules etc. and gives explanations how to organize the structure and
the use of the characters but it does not give a model for each industrial area. This has to be done
by working groups.
For the substations for electrical energy distribution the German community of interest “IG
EVU” has taken this task. Member of the IG EVU are beside others the main vendors and the
main utilities of Germany. The papers are available and free of charge via Internet “www.igevu.de”. The documents can be found on the page “Veröffentlichungen”.
The following extracts of the designation trees shows the position of the used elements.

Substation Configuration description
Language (SCL)

Chapter 2
IEC 61850 station engineering
Substation Configuration description Language
(SCL)
The SCL language is based on XML.
It is of course not needed to know the XML file in its details and do any step which requests
XML knowledge, but the organization of the information within the SCL files (ied.ICD and/or
station.SCD) might be of interest. Especially to know where the engineering additions like
DataSets and Control Blocks belongs to.
The SCL XML file is defined in five sections or descriptions, which are specified in IEC
61850–6 clause 9. These sections are:
•
•
•
•
•
the Header
the Substation description (section)
the Communication description (section)
the IED description (section)
the Data Type Templates
The first two sections can be seen as tasks to organize the IEDs within the substation and to establish the communication. These tasks are done by the PCM 600 tool. The Logical nodes as part
of the IED are logically linked to the substation section by PCM 600. The signal engineering
task and routing of the signals is the task of the CCT tool. Its precondition is that PCM 600 has
done the complete organization on the two sections substation and communication.
The DataSets and Control Blocks configured by the CCT tool are located in the IED section because they are logically defined as part of the Logical nodes (see IEC 61850–7–2 clause 9). The
CCT needs the correct configured communication section when it comes to GOOSE engineering.
The Data type templates section is requested to give the correct content description of each Logical node type to all user of the information. These are the clients. Each IED and vendor may
have/has its own Logical node type definitions.

A reference to the GoCB is included in the communication section when the GoCB is configured.
The above graphical presentation of the XML file is a standard view of XML editors. It gives a
better picture about the structure of the XML contents.
3.1
The Substation section
The substation description in IEC 61850–6 clause 9 describes the organization of the primary
equipment in a single line diagram on one side. On the other side it describes the used LNs belonging to a bay. The second part is of interest for the signal engineering.
In part 6 clause 8.4 of the standard the object and signal designation rules are described. The
identification for the signals are therefore also used in the telegrams defined in IEC 61850–8–1
is named “Technical key”. The technical key is used within the SCL description to identify and
reference objects. See chapter 2, section 1 "Station engineering in IEC 61850" about the concept
based on IEC 61346. PCM 600 generates an “SCL Technical key” independent of the naming
given by the project. The PCM 600 generated technical key is based on the definitions given in
IEC 61346 and for electrical substations. When a project is using its own naming model this will
be used by the SCL description as technical key. PCM 600 allows to select the version which
should be used in the SCL files when exporting a station.SCD file.
Signal identification in the communication system
The signal identification rules used by IEC 61850 are described in part 7–2 clause 19.2. and used
in part 6 clause 8.4.2
The signal designation consists of four parts:
1. a user defined part identifying the Logical device LD in the process (LDName)
2. a function related part to distinguish several LNs of the same class within the
same LD/IED (LN-Prefix)
3. the standardized LN class name and the LN instance number, which distinguishes
several LNs of the same class and prefix within the same LD/IED
4. a signal identification inside a LN consisting of data and attribute name as defined in IEC 61850–7–3 and IEC 61850–7–4

The above figure is taken from the standard IEC 61850–6 (figure 5).
The standard defines two options how to use part 1 and part 2 above:
1. Function related naming
• identified in the SCL header with NameStructure = FuncName

The LDName part is build in this option out of the objects IED (A) and LD (B). The link to the
primary process is not given in this model.
The LNName is in this option the LN Prefix, the LN class and the LN instance no (C).
The LN prefix allows in this model to identify several versions of a LN class. For example the
eight different versions the LN class PDIF.
The link between the IED and the primary process (Substation (1), Voltage level (2), bay (3)) is
given in the substation section of the station.SCD file but not in the signal identification in the
telegram. The project may decide how to deal with this matter. The IED name may be extended
with a short form of the three missing levels. The IEDName must be unique in this designation
model.
Remark:
The standard defines the maximum length for the signal naming and for identification parts to
32 ASCII characters each. This has to be regarded for the object identification for part 1 to part
4 (see figure 6). In addition it might be possible that client IEDs have additional restrictions
which have to be taken into account.
Most vendor have to use the LN Prefix to identify their versions etc. Therefore the product related naming model (IEDName) will be used.
3.2
The communication section
The organization of the physical IEDs to the communication network is independent of the substation structure. The IEC 61850 standard defines the communication network with no relation
to an existing media and protocol. The first mapping to an existing media and protocol is done
in IEC 61850–8–1 with:
•
•
Ethernet as medium
MMS (Manufacturing Message Specification) protocol as defined in ISO 9506–1
and IOS 9506–2.
The IEC 61850 standard describes in part 7–2 the Abstract Communication Service Interface
(ACSI) in a media and protocol independent form. Part 8–1 specifies the mapping of this ACSI
to the existing MMS.
The communication section in the SCL file describes the minimum of what is needed to identify
how information is routed between the IEDs in a project. This is.

Both variants fulfil the requirements and performance. Variant 2 may be used, when the availability question is discussed. In this case only one voltage level of the station is lost when a subnetwork fails. The client IEDs must be able to handle two access points.
3.3
The IED section
The IED section describes the complete IED as it is needed for IEC 61850 communication and
signal engineering. The Data Type Template part of an IED may be seen as part of the IED, even
when separated in its own section. The ied.ICD files includes the description of the LNs, their
Data Type Templates and the used/supported services. The structure of the IED section follows
the definitions made in the IEC 61850 standard.
There are two basic IED types which are used:
•
22
station level IEDs
- IEDs located on station level and dealing with the information transmitted
from/to the bay IEDs are identified as client IEDs. They are represented by
Logical nodes of group “Information (I)”. This are the LNs = ITCI, IHMI and
Chapter 2
IEC 61850 station engineering
Substation Configuration description
Language (SCL)
•
ITMI. They are the receiver of information in monitoring direction and sender of commands (control). These LNs have no data objects. They are only
used to do the link of the report control blocks (BRCBs) from the server
IEDs.
bay level IEDs
- all IEDs on bay level are server IEDs.
Signal engineering is done within the server IEDs.

Chapter 2
IEC 61850 station engineering
the LN LLN0 is a special LN per LD and contains the DataSets, the various control blocks, inputs (from GOOSE messages) etc.
The LN LPHD is a special LN per LD and contains data objects which describe
the status of the physical device (the IED)
each Logical node represents a function and contains a number of data objects
(DO)
each DO is represented by a number of data attributes (DA)
The data objects are representing information signals which may be routed to station level IEDs.
So the signal engineering task is to select the requested signals (DOs) and link them to the client
IEDs as receiver. The control services are not directly engineered. They are included in the data
objects which handle both directions the command (control) and the response (monitoring). So
when routing the DO in monitoring direction the control is then also known by the clients.
The organization of the IED from LD down to DAs can be viewed in the CCT tool. This organization concept has to be taken into consideration when DataSets are configured.
The number of data objects and data attributes per DO is defined by the used LN type in this
IED. The contents is taken from the Data Type Templates which belong to an IED type.
3.4
Signal engineering
DataSets
IEC 61850 has defined DataSets and report control blocks for signal transmission in monitoring
direction. DataSets are also used for GOOSE messages in horizontal direction. Which data objects or single data attributes should be collected in a DataSet is not specified and can be done
to rules which may be defined in a project. The following figure shows a DataSet where all position information of the apparatuses of a bay are put into one DataSet.
The vendor of an IED can define DataSets as defaults which are part of the IED and always
available. They need to be linked to the client IEDs only when you want to use them as they are.
The vendor has to declare when these DataSets can be modified to projects need or not.

IEC 61850–7–2: Example of a DataSet
General rules for DataSet configuration:
•
•
•
•
All data objects or their data attributes which are signals in monitoring direction
can be selected for a DataSet
only those data attributes of a data object can/will be selected which have the
same function constraint (FC).
data objects with different FC can be selected for a DataSet. For example DOs
with FC = ST and DOs with FC=MX can be member in one DataSet.
a single data attribute can be selected when it is specified with a trigger option.
For example the data attribute stVal of the data object Pos can be selected as a
member of a DataSet, because it is specified with the trigger option data change
detected (dchg).
The description of the DataSets with name and the list of data object members (FCDAs = Functional Constraint Data Attributes) is included in the SCL file in the IED section in the Logical
device subsection. As specified in IEC 61850–7–2 clause 9, the DataSets are part of a Logical
node. They are most likely included in the LLN0.
3.4.1
Buffered Report Control Block (BRCB)
To be able to transmit the signals configured in a DataSet a BRCB must be configured which
handles and specifies how the events will be transmitted to the clients.
25
Substation Configuration description
Language (SCL)
Chapter 2
IEC 61850 station engineering
The contents of a BRCB is listed in IEC 61850– 7–2 in clause 14, table 23. The BRCB contains
a lot of attributes which are of interest to handle and secure the communication between the client and the server and may be set once as default in a project. Others are of application interest
in the way events are handled in a project.
•
•
•
•
•
Buffer time
- This parameter describes how long the report should wait for other expected
events before it will send the report to the client. When it is known, that additional events will be generated as a follow up it is useful to wait for example 500 ms for additional events stored in the report. This feature reduces the
number of telegrams transmitted in case of a burst of changes. But on the other side it increases the overall transaction time for events from IED input to
presentation on HSI which is normally defined to be one second!
Trigger options
- The data attributes know three different trigger options (dchg, qchg, dupd).
Within the BRCB the two other can be defined (integrity and general interrogation). The attribute Trigger option is a multiple choice and allows to
mask the supported trigger options in this BRCB.
Integrity period
- When integrity is selected in the trigger option attribute, it is needed to define
an integrity period to force the transmission of all data listed in the DataSet.
This is done by the attribute Integrity period. This feature can be used as a
background cycle to ensure that the process image in all partners is the same.
Nobody is perfect and someone in the long chain from the contact up to the
NCC may have lost an event. The background cycle can repair it.
General interrogation
- A general interrogation is only done on request from a client. Not all Data-sets may contain information which is needed for a general update of the
client. For example data with T(ransient) = TRUE are not part of a GI. When
the BRCB attribute general interrogation is set to TRUE a GI request from
the client will be handled. The report handler will transmit all data defined in
the Data-set with their actual values. The IEC 61850 standard defines that all
buffered events shall be transmitted first before the GI is started. A running
GI shall be stopped and a new GI shall be started, when a new GI request is
received while a GI is running.
Purge buffer
- This BRCB attribute can be used by a client to clean the event buffer from
old events. The events are discarded on request of the client. This feature can
be used to delete old events not transmitted to the client due to stopped communication. After the link is reestablished the client can decide to clean the
buffer or to receive the history.
Trigger Options
IEC 61850 has defined in total five different TrgOp. Three of them belonging to data attributes
and marked per data attribute in the column TrgOp of the CDC tables in part 7–3. The other two
belonging to the configuration of control blocks. The five trigger options are:
•
26
dchg = data-change
Substation Configuration description
Language (SCL)
Chapter 2
IEC 61850 station engineering
-
•
•
•
•
The classical trigger. Whenever a process value has changed its value either
binary or a measurement a transmission is done. How it is detected and how
the Logical node is informed is not part of the standard.
qchg = quality change
- Looking to the possibilities of the quality data attribute type (q) any changes
in the quality description will be transmitted.
dupd = data value update
- This trigger option give the possibility to define that a transmission should
be done on a condition which can be controlled by the application.
integrity
- This trigger will force the transmission of all process values defined in the
Data-set when a timer value (the integrity period) expires. It can be used for
example to do a process signal update in the background (e.g. every 15 minutes).
general interrogation
- This trigger is forced by the clients (= station level IED; NCC gateway, station HMI, ...). Normally a GI is asked for, when the client and the server start
or restart a session. When the client is able to receive the actual values and
when the Logical device has scanned all process values at least once, an image of the actual process signal status can be transmitted to the client.
Link BRCB to a client LN
The BRCB has to know to whom the events shall be transmitted. This is the signal routing engineering step. The IEC standard 61850–6 describes that this is given by including the LN of the
client IED in the ReportBlockEnabled option.
The selected client IED with the corresponding LN (e.g. ITCI) is included in the SCL structure
of the Report Control description of the IED section.
CCT is doing it when the client LN is linked with the name field of the BRCB by the
drag-and-drop method.
The description of the BRCB with selected DataSet, configured parameters and selected IEDs
is included in the SCL file in the IED section in the LN0 structure for the LD where this LN0
belongs to.

Figure 14:
IEC 61850: Principle operation of GOOSE messages
The Generic Object Oriented Substation Event (GOOSE) class model is used to distribute input
and output data values between IEDs on bay level (in horizontal direction) through the use of
multicast services. GOOSE messages bypass the server and enables a fast transmission from
publisher to one or several subscribers (receivers).
29
Substation Configuration description
Language (SCL)
Chapter 2
IEC 61850 station engineering
GOOSE messages are unidirectional, send only messages which request an application specific
method to secure that sender and receiver of the message operates safely. This implies that the
receiver of the GOOSE message distributes also GOOSE messages and close the loop for communication (request — respond on application level). The return message is not a must. It depends on the application in which way a confirmation may be done.
The GOOSE message concept will be used for all application functions where two or more IEDs
are involved. Typical example is the station-wide interlocking procedure.
The very simplified figure above shows the GOOSE concept for three IEDs which interchange
GOOSE messages between each other.
To send GOOSE messages a GoCB must be defined and a DataSet is needed which contains the
data objects of single data attributes to be send.
A GOOSE message is forced to be transmitted when a trigger change is detected for a data attribute. All members of the Data-set will be copied in the send buffer with their actual value and
the message is sent. All subscriber which knows the address of this GOOSE message will receive the telegram. The GOOSE message includes sequence number etc. to verify that all messages are received.
The concept what has to be done in case of a lost message etc. is part of the application and not
described in the standard.
The DataSet for GOOSE messages are configured in the way described above.
A GoCB has to be defined per GOOSE-DataSet.
GOOSE messages bypass the server and send direct from the communication part on the Ethernet. This is identified for the communication in the SCL communication section in the GSE element, where the name of the GoCB is listed under the ConnectedAP.
Link GoCB to an IED
The IEDs which should receive this GOOSE message must be known and they have to be informed in the engineering state that they will receive GOOSE messages. This is given when the
external Reference, the name of the IED and the member of the DataSet is included in the LN0
under the structure of the LD of the receiving IED. This part is identified as “Inputs”.
The IEDs which shall receive the GOOSE are selected by CCT. CCT is doing it when the IED
itself (the IED icon) is linked with the name field of the GoCB by the drag-and-drop method.

IEC 61850 Station configuration tasks
The IEC 61850 standard defines the complete part needed for information communication in a
substation. This can be split into the following parts:
•
•
•
•
•
the definition of data objects and their common data classes with their data attributes
the definition of Logical nodes (LN) as the communication interface for a substation function (e.g. a protection function)
the definition of a basic communication structure for substation and feeder equipment
the practical mapping of the communication to an existing protocol the MMS
the definition of the engineering process for a substation control system in a configuration description language for communication in electrical substations
We refer to the IEC 61850 standards in their actual version as a basis for the engineering tasks
described inhere by using the PCM 600 and the CCT. The main parts which are of interest are
described in a brief form in chapter 2 "IEC 61850 station engineering".
A short form of the complete station and signal engineering sequence can be described as shown
in the following figure.

IEC 61850: Station configurator
The procedure can be split into three main parts
1. Configuration of the station structure including IEDs and communication with
PCM 600
• configure the plant structure in voltage levels and bays
• place all bay IEDs from ABB and other vendor (using the Generic IEC 61850
IED as a placeholder) in the bays
• do IED engineering for ABB IEDs with PCM 600 to generate the ied.ICD
files
33
IEC 61850 Station configuration tasks
Chapter 3
IEC 61850 Station configuration
tasks
•
do the similar tasks for the other bay IEDs with their IED engineering tools
and export the ied.ICD files or take the ied.ICD files from a vendors library
• import all other ied.ICD files to their position in the station via Generic IEC
61850 IED.
• check the communication subnetwork that all IEDs are connected to the
same subnetwork
• give each bay IED its IP address
• export the station_PCM.SCD file
2. Signal engineering for the IEC 61850 signals with CCT
• create a project in CCT, if it not already exists for the station
• import the station_PCM.SCD file created by PCM 600
• actually import client IEDs with their ied.ICD file to the station configuration by CCT
• link the client IEDs to the communication subnetwork and define the access
point
• save, close and load the CCT project again; only when client IEDs are added
by CCT first time
• check the pre-configured DataSets for report control blocks for your needs
and for each IED. Generate additional DataSets for RCBs when requested
• generate the needed DataSets for GOOSE messages
• create and configure Buffered Report Control Blocks (BRCB) for each data
set used for vertical communication.
• link each DataSet for vertical communication to a BRCB
• link the IED clients Logical node (ITCI IHMI) to the BRCBs
• create and configure GOOSE Control Blocks (GoCB) for each DataSet configured for GOOSE messages
• link the GOOSE DataSets to a GoCB
• link the IEDs which shall receive the GoCB to the GoCB
• update IEC 61850 data flow (CCT specific function)
• export the station.SCD file for further use by the IED configuration tools
3. Preparation of ied.CID files per IED and download them to the IEDs
• import the station.SCD file to all IED configuration tools for further activities
• for ABB bay IEDs use the PCM 600 for IED engineering
• do signal marshalling with the SMT tool in all ABB IED 670s which are involved to receive GOOSE messages
• download the updated ied.CID file to the IED 670 with the SMT tool
• do similar tasks for all other IEDs with their IED configuration tool
This is a short form of the complete procedure for IEC 61850 with PCM 600 and CCT.
The additional tasks for signal engineering for IEC 61850 in an IED 670 are described in the
'Engineering guide for IED 670 products'.

PCM 600 and CCT tool set for station engineering
PCM 600 and CCT are state of the art tool sets based on Microsoft.net technology.
The two tools are able to do the station configuration tasks as defined by IEC 61850–6. They are
doing it for the IED and subnetwork configuration in a plant structure and in a communication
structure by PCM 600. The signal engineering which is defined by the DataSets, the report control blocks and the GOOSE messages is done with the CCT.
PCM 600 is a tool which supports in itself the tasks needed to do IEC 61850 station engineering
but it is also the platform for several sets of tool components used to support IED engineering
for ABB IED product families. This manual describes the IEC 61850 station configuration task
only.
It is requested to use the IED engineering guide manuals in addition when ABB IEDs are part
of the IEC 61850 based station project.
The description of the PCM 600 is limited in most cases to the part needed for IEC 61850 station
configuration.
The CCT is a tool which is used by ABB as a base product for signal engineering of several protocols. This version of CCT is also limited to the tasks needed to do signal engineering for IEC
61850 protocol. The precondition to use CCT is that the plant structure with the IEDs and the
communication structure is build by PCM 600. See chapter 3 "IEC 61850 Station configuration
tasks" for a description of the general tasks for IEC 61850 station configuration by using PCM
600 and CCT.

The PCM 600 tool set runs under the operating system Windows 2000 or Windows XP. It is expected that the user is familiar with the handling and use of the Windows platform. In this chapter only those items are explained and shown which are specific to PCM 600 but still based on
Microsoft windows methods.
When you start PCM 600 and no project is already selected you will get an empty window with
the base menubar and toolbar only. Once you have selected a project, you will be given the possibility to select different views. The start menu of a project may look like the menu shown in

Project Explorer
The Project Explorer window is the skeleton of the project organization. It is used to show the
project in two different structures:
•
•
the plant structure
the communication structure
The plant structure is the most commonly used view and shows the organization of the stations
in the geographical order top down from a defined highest level (e.g. the network control center
(NCC)) down to each IED logically connected to a bay in the station. The plant structure is used
to select the tools per IED.
The communication structure is not needed for normal operation. It is used to view the communication network and links from the PCM 600 to each IED. Only the private communication
from the PCM 600 to each IED is managed and handled by the PCM 600.
To select the communication structure do a right mouse click on the area next to the Plant Structure tab. Select communication and an additional page will be included which shows the communication structure of the PCM 600

Object Properties
The Object Properties window is a standard Microsoft window which allows the user to view
and when needed to modify properties of the selected object. In the PCM 600 frame this window
is used by some tools like GDE to insert the IP address of the IED selected and some other properties like object naming in the HMI picture and so on. It might be necessary to check some properties for communication to adapt and synchronize the communication network. The shown
properties in the object properties window follow the selected object in the Project Explorer or
in a tool.
en05000559.vsd
Figure 19:
PCM 600: Object properties window
Modifications are only possible in cells with their content shown in bold. Renaming of objects
can be done more easily by using the Rename capability in the plant structure, which is made
available by pressing the right mouse button.
Output
The Output window is shown on the bottom array of the PCM 600 screen when selected. It is a
log script which is used by PCM 600 to list all activities, warnings, error messages etc. which
come up during operation of the PCM 600. It might be needed and used when a task does not
operate as expected. The information in the output list may provide a clue as to why it does not
operate etc. The Output view is not needed for normal operation and can be closed.

IED tools
These tools are not used for IEC 61850 station configuration.
Each started IED tool will be visible in the residual screen area surrounded by the three windows
Plant Structure, Object Properties and Output. For normal operation only the Plant Structure is
needed and it is recommended to close the other two windows. More then one tool can be open
at the same time for one IED or for some IEDs in parallel. But only one tool at a time is active.
The tool is selected either by its tool tab or by selecting the IED.
See the IED engineering guide manuals for more derails.

PCM 600 the toolbar and the mouse
For each IED 670 tool the PCM 600 basic menubar and toolbar is expanded by additional
menu-lists and tool-icons. This is not given and needed for IEC 61850 station configuration. For
more details see 'Engineering guide for IED 670 products'.
The right button of the mouse is supported. Clicking the right mouse button opens a context sensitive menu. This menu presents all possible actions and selections corresponding to the selected
object.

Save tool engineering results
PCM 600 stores additions and changes in the plant and communication structure direct in its database. This function is not needed for IEC 61850 station configuration.
The PCM 600 stores all changes for which it is responsible directly in the database. This is useful
because these changes are only of type organization and have no influence on IED data. Changes, additions etc. done within a tool are only moved to the project database when they are saved.
This possibility is context sensitive and will be displayed in the PCM 600 base menu bar under
File when a tool has the ability to save.

4. User Manager
• is used to edit the list of persons or users which can use PCM 600 when an
authentication method is selected
3.1
PCM 600 access
The set up and the possibilities to organize PCM 600 access can be seen as a branch with three
basic alternatives. For each of the three alternatives you have to set up information in the user
manager and select a user category out of the list described by the category manager.
Changes in the System Settings, Category Manager and User Manager can only be done by a
user of the category type “System Engineer”.
The used alternative is selected in the Authentication. Select the System Settings window to

The User Manager window has four input fields. Three of them are used to define the access for
a user for either PCM or Windows authentication. The field Real Name might be used to identify
the user, when the user name is a short version of his name.
The PCM authentication uses the following inputs to identify a user:
•
•
•
User Name
Set Password (optional)
User Category. The user category is defined in the category manager. It belongs
to the user name and is not part of the authentication check.
The Windows authentication uses the following inputs to identify a user:

Windows authentication
In the Windows authentication method each user must have a different account on this PC. Only
in this case a selective input is possible. In this case the user has already identified himself to the
PC, when he started Windows. So a separate access control is not needed.
A user can change his password, by entering his old password once, and then the new password
twice. The system engineer can change passwords without knowledge of the old passwords.

Connectivity package support for PCM 600
PCM 600 is a tool which allows the user to include the engineering tool components for product
families of ABB for transmission and distribution. In the way you are using ABB products it
might be that you will have several sets installed using the concept of connectivity packages.
How to install a new product package or to add an additional communication protocol is described in the documentation for PCM 600.
To engineer the ABB IED 670 product family you must have enabled the use of these tools and
protocols in the connectivity package manager. Please check that before you may start the PCM
600.
en05000561.vsd
Figure 30:
Connectivity manager: version selection window
Always use the latest version of a tool package or protocol. This can be easily done in the
menubar Set Latest.
In the above Connectivity Package Manager window the following packages are available
•
50
Generic IEC 61850 IED connectivity Package
- This package is very much needed for IEC 61850 station configuration.

It will be used to include the ied.ICD file of bay IEDs in the station.SCD file.
It will be used, when the DRH tool is used to read the DR files from all IEDs
running the IEC 61850 protocol. See IED engineering guide manual for more
details about the disturbance report handler (DRH).
IEC 61850 Connectivity Package
- This package is needed for IED 670 products, which communicate with
PCM 600 on Ethernet, TCP/IP and using elements of the IEC 61850 protocol.
LON Connectivity Package
- This package is not needed for IED 670 products. It is used for products using LON to communicate with PCM 600.
IED 670 Connectivity Package
- This package is needed in the latest revision to engineer IED 670 products.
It contains the description of the IED 670 products.
SPA Connectivity Package
- This package is not needed for IED 670 products. It is used for products using SPA to communicate with PCM 600.

PCM 600 Set up communication link per IED 670
The communication between the IED 670 and the PCM 600 is independent of the used IEC
61850 communication protocol within the substation. It can be seen as a second channel for
communication.
When an additional link from PCM 600 to the IED 670 is requested see 'Engineering guide for
IED 670 products'.
The IP address used for the Ethernet channel with IEC 61850 protocol has to be filled in by the
PST tool as part of IED 670 engineering.
5.1
PCM 600 Set up communication link per Generic IEC 61850 IED
A Generic IEC 61850 IED (Gen-IED) can only communicate with the PCM 600 in the same way
as the IED 670 products are when using the IEC 61850 protocol. That is only given for the disturbance file reading from the relays. The DRH tool is responsible for that task. For more details
about the DRH tool see 'Engineering guide for IED 670 products'.

those items are explained and shown which are specific for CCT but still based on Microsoft
windows methods.
When you start CCT you will get a screen with the different panels but no contents. Once you

Project Navigator
The Project Navigator shows the four sections in a SCL project in different levels of details. The
known four sections are:
•
•
•
•
Substation section
- for information only. Only the sequence: Station > Voltage level > Bay is
shown
Communication section
- for information only. Only the configured Subnetworks and their configured
Access points are shown
IED section
- the tree structure can be expanded from > to: IED > LD > LN > DO > DA
including the full extension of complex data objects
- added DataSets, Report Control Blocks (RCB) and GOOSE Control Blocks
are shown below the LN level when enabled to be included (normally below
LLN0).
- the configured Data objects (DO) are listed with all their Data attributes in
the Attribute Editor within the IEC 61850 Data Engineering pane
Data Type Templates
- similar to the IED structure all existing LNodeTypes, DO Types, DA Types
and Enum Types are shown in a tree structure.
- The LN Types and their DOs are listed in the Attribute Editor within the IEC
61850 Data Engineering pane. The structure of DO Types, DA Types and
Enum Types is not shown in the Attribute Editor
Properties
The Object Properties window is a standard Microsoft window which allows to view and when
needed to modify properties of the selected object. Due to the fact, that CCT operates only with
the IED section properties should only be modified for the IED and the level below where useful
and needed to be adopted. It has to be regarded, that most of the properties are under control of
the configuration done by the station configurator PCM 600 or by the vendor of the IED.
This is also valid for changes done for example in the given IED naming. It must be known that
changing the IED name has influence on the substation section which is not supported by the
CCT. The station configurator PCM 600 has control over the station wide naming and addressing rules.

Chapter 4
PCM 600 and CCT tool set for

Remark:
The role of CCT is to do signal engineering and signal routing. The PCM 600 is responsible for
the station configuration and naming within the project. The IEC 61850 Attribute editor may be
used for monitoring and view of Logical nodes and their data objects and data attributes only.
Even when it is possible to modify values, this may be done only in cooperation of the owner of
this value which will be PCM 600 or the vendor of the IED.
Remark
Changes in the Properties may have influences to other SCL sections which are not updated by
the CCT. When doing changes the position and influence of the attribute may be well known.
They may have also influence on the IED configuration, which is vendors responsibility.
Output
The Output window is shown on the bottom array of the CCT screen when selected. It is a log
script which is used by CCT to list all activities, warnings, error messages etc. which come up
during operation of the CCT. It might be needed and used when a task does not operate as expected. The information in the output list may give a hint why it does not operate etc. The Output
view is not needed for normal operation and can be closed.
There are two different views given:
•
•
Out
- shows all messages unfiltered
Log
- shows only those messages with a category that is at least the same as the
threshold defined in chapter 4, section 7.2 "Logger options".
Column Visibility Control (CVC)
The CVC panel is available and can be used when “Report Control Engineering” or “Goose
Control Engineering” is active. It allows to select only those columns which are of interest for
signal engineering, like “Integrity Period”, “BuffTime”, etc.
The list of selections shown when the Attribute Editor is selected are not foreseen for IEC 61850
views.
IEC 61850 Data Engineering
This panel is surrounded by the above described various panels. For normal operation and after
set up the Column Visibility Control the Output panel and the CVC can be closed. The IEC

Clicking the symbol in a column header will fix or release the column to be shifted, when the
spreadsheet is moved in horizontal direction. The column will automatically shift to the next
right ascending position of fixed columns, when the columns left from the selected one are not
fixed. So to get a correct sequence of fixed columns start to fix the columns from left to right.

Filtering
This is the MicroSoft standard method of filtering in a column. Clicking the filter icon pops up
a drop down list with possible choices. The first four choices are standard, the following one is
the list of possible elements in this column. Selecting an element out of the list will mark all rows
where the filter criteria matches in a way as described by the toolbar Filter action selection.
Filter selection possibilities
The Filter Action drop down list in the Toolbar allows to select a variant of how the filtered and
not filtered rows should be marked and made visible:
•
•
•
•
HideFilteredOutRows
1. hides all rows which do not match the filter criteria
DisableFilteredOutRows
1. shows all rows but disables the possibility to make changes (edit) in the rows
which do not match the filter criteria
AppearanceOnly
- will leave all rows visible but colors the rows which do not match the filter
criteria. The color is predefined.
Default
- is the same then “HideFilteredOutRows”
Filter with included filter bar
When the Filter bar icon in the Toolbar is selected an additional row will be blended in below
the column header row. This row enables to select the specific filter criteria from a drop down
list, to enter the filter criteria right from the selection icon, to select an available element out of
the list of elements available in this column and to reset the filter for this column. It is an extended but simple to use choice possibility for filtering.
Column sorting
To sort the sequence of columns to your own criteria can be done by the standard MicroSoft
methods. Select the header element of a column and move it left or right to the position you want
to have it. The position where it will be placed will be shown by two red arrows. In the same
standard way it is possible to adjust the width of a column by selecting the right border of the
column and move it.
Grouping
Grouping allows to sort the rows of a spreadsheet in groups. The different groups which will appear depends on the type and contents of the selected row for grouping.

Adding new rows and sub-rows or deleting a row
When the spreadsheet allows the adding of new rows this is be seen in the bottom area below
the spreadsheet. The button Add allows to add a row. All rows and sub-row possibilities are visible by select buttons per row type.
To delete a row or several rows you have to select these rows by the standard MicroSoft methods
(CTRL or SHiFT button pressed). Press the keyboard Delete key to delete the selected rows. A
confirmation window will pop up and you have to confirm your action.
Sorting
You may sort one or several rows in alphanumeric order by selecting the columns you want to
sort and click the direction for sorting button in the Toolbar.
Be aware that a sequential order as it was given by the spreadsheet before is lost (e.g. the sequence of data objects and data attributes in a complex data object structure). You have to deselect the spreadsheet and select it again to get the logical sequence back.
Text matching search
In a long list you may search for a specific row. This is possible by searching in a selected column for the start character of the element you are looking for.
Select the column in which you are searching. Type the first character of the element. The first
row which matches will be highlighted. Each time you type the character the next row which
matches will be highlighted.

As described in chapter 4, section 6 "CCT views and windows" CCT writes a log about all activities. This log is made visible by selecting the panel Output. In normal operation and with
skilled knowledge about the way it operates the list will include only the history of your actions.
The output view may be used when a problem occurs and it is not apparent why.

It is also used when a failure occurs or when any other abnormal sequence occurs which may be
clarified by ABB. The log file is requested by ABB when you communicate a failure or any other
item. It is therefore requested to keep the log file history for this purpose. You may clear your
hard disc from the burden of the CCT history from time to time. Ways to configure the log:
•
•
•
•
•
•
7.3
Log Category
- allows a selection from which message type upwards the messages should be
listed in the Log window of the Output panel
Log File Size
- this is the size per file! A daily file of 1MB is hard to achieve. Be aware of
the volume when you select a daily file. Clear the history from time to time!
CCT extends the file name with the date when the file was started. So a daily
log makes it easy to identify the file which is of interest.
Append Log File
- will continue to write in the existing file when a new session is started. The
different parts of each session can be identified by date and time.
Write Daily Log
- we recommend enabling this function. A daily file makes it easier for search
in a list as well to check other dates etc.
Log File Path
- the path is fixed and can not be modified
Log File Name
- the name is fixed and can not be modified
Navigator structure options
en06000038.vsd
Figure 43:
CCT: Navigator Structure Options
CCT works with the IED section, the communication section and indirect with the Data Type
Template section. The organization structure of these section is presented in the Project Navigator panel. The visible naming of the elements (Nodes) can be arranged to your demand by selecting the available name elements and concatenate them in a sequence. This can be arranged
in the IEC 61850 Structure Option.
66

This is possible for six different Node types and for each node type up to three naming elements
(Token) can be chosen. The available naming elements depends on the node type. You have to
chose a Separator between the naming elements to get the string readable.
Supported Node Types:
•
•
•
Communication section
- Subnetwork
- Connected access points
IED section
- IED
- Logical Node
- Access point
Data Type Templates
- Logical Node type
The configuration of a Node Type can be done as follows:
•
•
•
•
•
•
select a Node Type row or add a new one by clicking the Add button
select a node type out of the drop down list
select the various Token (1 to 3) and select a naming element out of the drop
down list
fill in the separators of your own choice
when you leave the selected row, CCT detects the changes and starts to update
the complete sections and the Project Navigator with the new presentation form.
This takes some ten seconds depending on project size etc. Wait until CCT has
finished the update.
To see the result you have to close the option window and open the sections in
the Project Navigator
An empty Token is left out. Make some examples to see the results and configure it to your demands.

PCM 600 operates on projects.
•
•
•
A project contains all information about the station configuration, the IEDs, the
engineering of the IEDs when done with PCM 600, the uploaded and downloaded files and internal files produced by PCM 600 and the tool components used to
run the project.
A project is stored under the directory of PCMDataBase on the PC or workstation
on which PCM 600 is installed. PCM 600 runs various projects under the control
of PCM 600. But only one project can be active at a time. These imported projects
are handled by the MSSQL$SERVER which is part of PCMDataBase.
Projects may be grouped into two categories:
- Engineering projects for IEC 61850 based stations. Engineering projects are
focused on the complete engineering of a substation with its IEDs. The most
practical size for a project is a substation.
- System monitoring projects. System monitoring projects are focused on the
monitoring information from the operating IEDs located in several substations. The most practical size for a project depends on the structure of the
grid and customer's responsibility. This is described in the 'Engineering
guide for IED 670 products'.
Tasks in an IEC 61850 station engineering project in PCM 600:
•
•
•
•
•
•
build up a plant structure for the substation
place the bay IEDs to the voltage levels and bays
place / check the bay IEDs to be connected to the IEC 61850 subnetwork
engineer ABB IED products to generate their ied.ICD files
load all other bay IEDs with their ied.ICD files
export the station.SCD file for use in CCT
•
re-import the station.SCD file from CCT to update the ABB IED products and to
generate the ied.CID files
do signal engineering for the IEDs which are receiver of GOOSE messages.

press Export
The CCT will generate a station.SCD file by keeping those parts which are not touched by the
CCT which is the Substation and Data Type Templates section. The communication and IED
section may have been modified and extended by CCT.
In addition CCT creates a set of ied.ccf files per IED in the project. These files include the SCL
part which is of interest for the named IED only. They may be used to re-import the IED part to
the IED configurator tool directly. These files are located at the same place as the station-SCD
file.

Import/export ied.ICD files
CCT as a tool for IEC 61850 signal engineering can do this tasks for a single IED or for a complete station with all IEDs linked to communication and defined in the substation section of the
SCL file.
This section describes the import and export of an ied.ICD file.
CCT can be used to configure DataSets and report control blocks (BRCBs) for a single IED before it is integrated in a station project. This makes sense when the IED is used more then once
in the project. Import of the ied.ICD file to CCT, do DataSet and BRCB engineering and export
it back allows to use the extended IED as a template for similar or same control or protection
IEDs.
In the actual version of PCM 600 it is only possible to include client IEDs in a station project
via CCT.

Chapter 7
Station configuration with PCM 600
Set up a substation for IEC 61850
PCM 600 organizes the structure of a substation in the Plant Structure window. The plant structure is used to locate each IED in its location within the electrical grid. It is a geographical image
of the substation and the bays within the substation.
You will build up the plant structure according to your project requirements. To do this PCM
600 offers some elements which build the hierarchical order from a Center down to the IEDs in
a bay. The organization of the station according to IEC 61850–6 is done in PCM 600 on the basis
of the 'Product related naming' (IEDName). This is shown in chapter 2, section 3.1 "The Substation section", figure 8.
The following levels are available:
1. Project = Center (not used for the naming)
2. Region = when your grid might be subdivided into regions this level should be
used in addition (optional)
3. Substation = Name of the substation (relevant for object designation)
4. Voltage Level = identifies to which grid type or part in the substation the IED belongs to
5. Bay = Bay within the voltage level
6. IED = selection of the IED which is used in the bay. Several IEDs are possible
within a bay (e.g. one control IED and two protection IEDs)
Level (2.) is optional all other level are a must to identify an IED.
Once a plant structure is built the identification should be renamed by the names/identifications
used in your project and to the specification for object identification as described in chapter 2
"IEC 61850 station engineering". Use the right mouse button to build the plant structure and to
rename the elements.

PCM 600: Set up a plant structure by using Object Type window
Naming conventions for IEC 61850
The following definition is taken from IEC 61850–6 clause 8.4:
The SCL model allows two kinds of object designation:
1. A technical key, which is used on engineering drawings and for signal identifications. This is contained in the attribute name as identification of each object. If
this value is used as reference to an object, it is contained in an attribute name
87
Set up a substation for IEC 61850
Chapter 7
Station configuration with PCM 600
starting with a string denoting the reference target object type, and ending with
the string Name. The technical key is used within SCL for referencing other objects. Observe that name is a relative identification within a hierarchy of objects.
2. A user oriented textual designation. This is contained in attribute desc. Attributes
are not allowed to contain carriage return, line feed or tab characters. The semantics of desc shall also be relative within an object hierarchy.
End of reference to the standard.
PCM 600 takes care for these two possibilities. The two possible designations naming are available per object in the object properties for all hierarchical levels beginning with the station as
highest level.
The technical key is automatically generated by PCM 600 based on the rules and type specifications of IEC 61346 and the definitions done for substations by a technical committee. The
technical key is shown in the Object Properties under “SCL TechnicalKey”.
•
•
•
the start point is the station which is predefined by “AA1” where 1 is the index.
Leave the station name untouched, even when it is the wrong station name. PCM
600 needs this start definition to build the technical key by itself.
the second hierarchical level is the voltage level. The voltage level has to be selected in the Object Properties from a drop list. The corresponding character is
automatically included in all objects. The drop list explains the voltage range for
each character so it should be no problem to select the right character. The list is
build on the definitions of the standard.
the bay and the IED is appended with the coding defined in the IEC 61346 standard and the substation definition lists.
The “user oriented textual designation” is visible in the plant structure for each object. It is the
name given by default or changed via the Rename possibility. It is shown in the Object Properties in the row Caption.

Set up a substation for IEC 61850
Chapter 7
Station configuration with PCM 600
In the above figure the bay named in the example “B_TR42” is visible in the object properties
with the two designations. The technical key AA1C1Q1 can be read like this:
•
•
•
AA1 = station 1 in the project
C1 = voltage level from 380 to 420 kV
Q1 = the first bay in the voltage level
Selection of object designation for the technical key
As described before PCM 600 supports two possibilities for object designation. One of this two
possibilities will be selected for the technical key in the SCL file when you export the station as
station.SCD file. Using the designation according to IEC 61346 guarantees (Navigator Object
Technical Key) that the naming is correct but maybe not useful in the naming your station is using. Using your own designation model (PCM Navigator Object Caption) is useful and can be
done when the total length according to IEC 61850 (32 characters) is regarded and the designation for each level is unique.
It should also be checked and notified when one of the user IEDs (most likely the client IEDs)
have additional rules for the length of each level etc. Be careful and make a general concept for
all partners in the project. See the standard IEC 61850–6 and chapter 2 "IEC 61850 station engineering" for more details.

PCM 600 selection of an IED
This section includes the description how to select an ABB IED 670 product as bay IED. For the
total capability see 'Engineering guide for IED 670 products'.
A control or protection IED 670 can be delivered in two general versions:
•
•
open configuration IEDs
pre-configured IEDs
When selecting an IED 670 a wizard is displayed which helps you to make the correct selection.
Open configuration IED
An open configuration IED is described by:
•
•
the delivered hardware
the delivered lists of selected functions
It includes:
•
a set of ordered functions available for engineering the logic and operation of the
functions
It does not include:
•
•
•
any configuration of the application configuration program
any engineering preparation for the IO hardware and IO signals
no defined settings other then the default values
89

Chapter 7
Station configuration with PCM 600
It is important to understand, that the list of delivered functions correspond to the list of available
function blocks in the IED itself. You can not use more function blocks than ordered.
An IED is selected by:
•
•
•
•
selecting the correct IED version 1.0 onwards
type in the IP address for the IED to communicate with PCM 600. This IP address
may be the same as used for the communication protocol (e.g. IEC 61850 or DNP
3.0 on Ethernet) but it must not be the same. This IP address is the link to the
PCM 600 tool set.

The Generic IEC 61850 IED (Gen-IED) has to be installed when additional non ABB bay IEDs
are used in the project. The tasks to integrate these IEDs are:
•
•
select a Gen-IED where requested
import the ied.ICD file which belongs to this IED

Select the “Replace... ” alternative. Because it is a Gen-IED it must be possible
to replace the IED object types with the known Generic IEC 61850 IED object
types.
select “Allow overwriting... ” . The Gen-IED is a not known IED until now for
the PCM 600. It must be possible to overwrite the default IED type with the type
defined in the vendors IED.
The SCL file import starts and a progress window shows the status. A message will indicate the
conclusion of a successful import. The IED name may not change by loading the file. Check and
adapt the IED name to the projects definition with the Rename selection in the right mouse button menu.
Note
The actual version of PCM 600 does not support the integration of client IEDs in the plant structure nor in the communication structure.
This is actual only possible by adding the client ied.ICD file in the CCT and configure the communication section in the CCT with the additional client IED. See chapter 6, section 3 "Import/export ied.ICD files" how to do it.

Set up communication for IEC 61850
The actual version of PCM 600 supports a communication network with one subnetwork according to IEC 61850 only. Client IEDs can be integrated in a station project by CCT only.
The communication structure can be checked by selecting it in the Project Explorer beside the
Plant structure. By opening the tree structure it is visible that the OPC server of the PCM 600
itself is on top with the NETWORK below.
All bay IEDs configured in the Plant Structure must be shown and connected to the NETWORK. In the figure below also the client IEDs are presented after re-import the station.SCD
file from the CCT to PCM 600 for final IED 670 engineering.

Import/Export station.SCD files
The IEC 61850 standard defines four file types in the sequence of engineering. These files have
a different definition which is explained in IEC 61850–6 clause 7. Three of this file type are used
in the engineering process for an IED 670.

select the station in the plant structure.
select “Import System SCL...” with the right mouse button
a standard Windows menu pops up to select the file to be imported. Browse to the
destination the file is stored and start the reading.
a selection menu pops up which queries how the file should be handled during
import. See figure 64.
1. The standard is the basic window as shown in the right screen-shot in
figure 64
2. “Update PCM Structure from SCL” expects that the file is the one which was
exported but now extended by configuration actions done in CCT. This is the
normal case and set by default.
3. “Append SCL to PCM Structure” will append the information for each IED
to the existing ICD part in the IED. This is useful, when the station configuration part is done on a basis ied.ICD file with no specific engineering or the
ICD file does not exist for the IED 670 until now.
4. “Advanced Options” expand the window as shown in the left screen-shot of
figure 64.
5. “Don't import ...” protects the existing IEDs in case the station.SCD file does
not match the original configuration in PCM 600.
6. “Replace unknown ...” can be used when it is known, that the file includes
additional IEDs which are needed. The IED of type “Generic IEC 61850
IED” is used to integrate these kinds of IEDs in the plant structure etc.
7. “Allow overwriting ...” should only be done when it is clear what happens
and justified with the complete project.

Signal engineering with CCT
IEC 61850 Attribute Editor
The IEC 61850 attribute editor in this CCT version is not used for editing. It is only allowed and
possible to view the structure and contents of Logical nodes and their data objects and data attributes. The organization of Logical nodes and their contents is under control and responsibility
of the IED vendor.
The structure and content of a Logical node is defined in IEC 61850–7–3 and IEC 61850–7–4.
It describes the data objects, the data attribute classes and the base types as mandatory or optional elements of a Logical node. The IED products define their Logical nodes based on this standards. But these Logical nodes are described as LN types, because these LN contain only the
used and available data objects etc. So each IED product will have its own set of used Logical
node types.
The SCL structure takes care of this in the Data Type Templates section where all used and
available Logical node types, their data object types and their data attribute types and when given their additional base types of type Enumerated are included. The reference to the LN types is
given in the IED section for each logical node by the LN type name as part of the Logical node
identification.

Data Set Entries
- lists all selected Logical nodes, Data objects or data attributes which are selected to be a member of the DataSet.
- the used functional constraint (FC) is shown in brackets at the end
- allows to remove (delete) a selected member out of the list.
- the address (reference) of each selected FCD or FCDA is shown. The reference includes the logical device part below the server as start point. This
gives the possibility to select any FCD, FCDA within the IED to be a member of the DataSet. In which way this is useful to get the right information
sorted logically is a question to the project.
- the selected Logical nodes with their data objects or the selected data objects
directly are called Functional Constraint Data (FCD) or Functional Constraint Data attributes (FCDA) when the member is a direct data attribute
IED Data Model
- lists all Logical nodes within the IED with their data objects and data attributes in a tree structure
- each element can be selected to be a member of a DataSet
- allows, requests to select a FC to separate those attributes which will be
member of the DataSet entry. Only FC = MX or ST are possible constraints
for reports to clients.
- allows to add the selected object to the list box of Data Set Entries. It will be
then a member of the DataSet (Add)
- allows to modify an already available member by overwriting its contents
with the one of the selected object (Modify)
Filtered Preview
- This list box shows all data attributes of the selected FC of the selected object
in the IED Data Model list box. These attributes will be transmitted in case
one of the data attributes has forces a trigger to send the DataSet member.
Remark
Analyzing all defined data attributes defined in IEC 61850–7–3 only data attributes with FC =
MX or ST are marked with the capability to generate a trigger. And they belong to process data
objects which contain the process information used at runtime. All other data attributes belong
to control (commands), settings, functional configuration parameters or descriptions. These information are handled by other IEC 61850 communication services and are not part of a report.

•
•
•
•
•
select the Data Set Engineering tab in the IEC 61850 Data Engineering pane
select the Logical node where the new DataSet should be located. This should be
in normal cases the LLN0 of a LD.
when requested and agreed in a project it is possible by the IEC 61850 standard
to locate the DataSet in any LN. This is not allowed for DataSets which are used
by GOOSE messages. These DataSets are only allowed in LLN0 !
press the Add button to add a new Data Set in the Data Sets list box
give the DataSet a name. The name must be unique within the station to be able
to identify it in the communication between a client and a server IED.
select the FCD or FCDA which should be member of the DataSet in the IED Data
Model list box.
select the correct FC out of the list in the Func. Constraint list box
click Add to add the FCD, FCDA to the Data Set Entries list box
click Modify when the selected member of the Data Set Entries list box should
be replaced or modified by the FCD, FCDA selected in the IED Data Model list
box
Repeat the procedure for all DataSets which are needed in this IED. Continue to do it for all IEDs
where additional DataSets are requested.
2.1
Predefined DataSet
The IEC 61850 standard allows to have predefined DataSets which the vendor of an IED has
included in his product. These predefined DataSets will be visible when you open an IED and
will be listed under the LLN0.
These DataSets may be modified or extended in a project. The possibility to do it must be announced by the vendor of the IED.
ABB has defined four predefined DataSets for the IED 670 products:
•
•
•
•
MeasFlt
- includes those measured values which will be transmitted on dchg trigger
given by a threshold value (deadband)
StatIed
- includes the behavior status of all Logical nodes
StatNml
- includes the trip signals (operate) of all protection Logical nodes
StatUrg
- includes the urgent alarms of the Logical nodes. The definition of what is urgent was done by ABB experts and may be checked by the project

GoCB engineering
The concept of GOOSE control blocks (GoCB) is described in a brief form in chapter 2,
section 3.4 "Signal engineering".
en06000050.vsd
Figure 72:
CCT: Generating and link of a GoCB
When the Goose Control Engineering pane is selected you will get a pane which contains a list
with several columns and some rows. Each row represents a GoCB description with all GoCB
attributes which are of interest.
When already IEDs are linked to that GoCB this is visible by the icon element to expand the
GoCB for next level rows. Each next level row contains the identification of a linked IED.
GOOSE messages are not handled by the server. They are directly send by the communication
handler as Unicast messages. The access to the Ethernet may need additional address information and timing parameters to monitor the correct sending. These parameters can/must be set per
GoCB in an additional address definition row.

Chapter 8
Signal engineering with CCT
The main steps to generate a GoCB are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
add a new GoCB row to the list by clicking Add ... GSE Control in the bottom
area of the pane
give the GoCB a unique name according to the rules described in IEC 61850–7–2
clause 15.2.1.1 and the rules defined in the project
select the DataSet out of the list of available DataSets for this GoCB. Always
only one DataSet per GoCB. See the example in the figure above
link the GoCB to the IEDs which should receive these GOOSE message. This is
done by selecting the icon of the bay IED and link it to the name field of the corresponding GoCB by using the drag-and-drop method. Repeat this for all bay
IEDs which should receive the information. See the arrow in the figure above.
configure the GoCB attributes to the standards defined in the project.
configure the address parameters to the standards defined in the project
do Update DataFlow by selecting this task via the menubar Tools > IEC 61850
Data Flow Engineering. CCT will now add the needed information in the SCL
file in:
- the IED section for the 'GoCB' and for the 'Input' structure elements in the
LLN0
- the communication section for the GSE structure
precondition to do the update dataflow is a correct and complete communication
section including all IEDs with their subnetwork and access point identification
en06000036.vsd
Figure 73:
CCT: Update Dataflow
Each IED which is selected to receive the GOOSE message will get the description of an 'Input'
structure in its SCL IED section in the LLN0 of the LD. It is then the task of IED engineering to
route the input signals of a GOOSE message to the application which deals with the information.
See the brief description in chapter 2, section 3.4 "Signal engineering".

the receiver IED
IEC 61850 clause 9.4.4 and listed in table 34 for the additions in the communication section
IEC 61850–7–2 clause 15.2 and table 28
the attributes used by the CCT to get the description from the user are all listed
in the CVC selection box for the GoCB.
For the identification of a column the same text is used in the GoCB list and in the CVC. To see
them in the CVC completley you have to select an element. The complete description will pop
up, when there is more text then in the visible part. The sorting order for the column may be
changed to your demands. So the only element to make the link to CVC is the identification text
of the column. How to operate the CVC see chapter 4, section 6.3 "CCT Column visibility control".
