1 IEC TRAINING PROGRAM A True Hands-On Experience... Ver. 2.0 Date: January 2013

2 TRAINING OVERVIEW GridSoftware IEC Training Program is specifically built for conventional protection and control engineers engaging into the complexity of the IEC The focus of the material is placed on the practical approach. Throughout many of the training sessions we have conducted so far we understood what the critical part of the IEC learning process is: to enable engineers to go through the full configuration process and experience the IEC in a live Training LAB Setup. You will learn about the IEC models and classes, communications, message structures and the configuration processes step by step, applying your gained knowledge immediately on the major manufacturer IEDs. In addition, you will be given a trial version of the Discovery, the IEC Engineering Tool, to connect and troubleshoot the IEC capable IEDs and perform most complex test setups. PRINCIPLES & MODELS COMMUNICATIONS Design Principles Information Modeling Interoperability Architecture: Station & Process Bus Logical Nodes ACSI - Class Models DataSet Communication models Controls GOOSE / GSSE Client / Server Data Reporting & Logging Sampled Values Time Synch GOOSE & Ethernet Frames 7-OSI Layers & PRP/HSR Client / Server MMS Protocol ASN.1 Encoding & Message Parsing SCL LANGUAGE SCL Syntax and Semantics.ICD/.CID Files: IED definitions.scd File: Substation Section Access Points & Communications Engineering process: Configuration Mandatory Software Tool IEC Engineering Tools: HANDS - ON Import SCL Files Connect Import Setup Create DataSets & Control Blocks Configure GOOSE & Data Reporting Connect to Live IEDs Monitor & Troubleshoot Messages Perform complex GOOSE Testing Initiate Client/Server MMS Reporting Message Parsing: Apply ASN.1 BER encoding Simulate IEC IEDs

3 PRINCIPLES & MODELS LEARN THE IEC MODELING PROCESS The IEC Standards are based on a concept of defining models and modeling methods for common information found in real substation applications. You will understand how the standards decompose information into functional models known as Logical Nodes, and how they are logically related within Logical Devices. You will also understand the Data Flow where and how exactly is the data exchanged? You will understand required interfaces, data exchange rules, syntax and semantics of the information being exchanged UNDERSTAND THE IEC MODELING BLOCKS Main modeling blocks are explained in details: Data Objects - smallest piece of information Data Attributes - Data Types DataSets - Data Containers used in the communication Control Blocks - models for controlling communications like GOOSE, Data Reporting... COMMUNICATION MODELS AND CONTROL CLASSES The material details two major communication models: Publisher / Subscriber and Client /Server. Control class models like Select Before Operate are described with the corresponding state machines. Control Security options are also explained.

4 COMMUNICATIONS GOOSE / GSSE Learn about the one-directional connectionless communication where sent messages are unconfirmed & multicasted carrying enough information necessary for recipients only to interpret the content. You will not only be guided through the configuration of both GOOSE and GSSE, but also given opportunity to create and simulate them using Discovery the IEC Software. Hands on part of the training will teach you how to monitor and troubleshoot live GOOSE messages. CLIENT / SERVER For reliable exchange of information, bidirectional connection oriented communication controlled on both sides the IEC Standards use the Client/Server MMS communication. Learn about the Data Reporting and Data Logging by examining Report Control Blocks definitions, data triggers, Integrity, General interrogation and DataSet parameters. The training program will guide you throughout a full Data Reporting configuration cycle. CLIENT / SERVER LAYERS Based on 7-OSI layer Model the IEC Client / Server layers are detailed along with the MMS Protocol and understand the process of establishing connection between a Client and a Server. Learn the mapping of the models and services into the MMS Objects and how these reflect on the message parsing.

5 SCL - Substation Configuration Description Language LEARN HOW TO CONFIGURE IEC IEDs The SCL part of the standards also defines engineering processes performed on the SCL files, namely: Mandatory IED Configuration Tools System Configuration Tools Data Flow & Configuration Processes Final compilation and Downloading process FOLLOW THE IEC IED CONFIGURATION SECTIONS During the Hands On part you will be given configuration template files from which you would create Substation files composed of Publisher/ Subscriber and Client/Server communications. The final SCL file and its related sections will then be examined and analyzed against the configuration parts to help you visualize a full picture of the configuration process. UNDERSTAND THE SCL FILE STRUCTURE The IEC Standards has a dedicated section (Part 6) for specifying file formats of individual IEDs and the Substation automation as a system. The files are described by a language whose structure, syntax and semantics are described in the training material. By examining the SCL files you will learn about: SCL File Types Substation system functionality in form of the Single Line Diagram (SLD) Allocation of the Logical Nodes within SLD Capabilities of the IEDs Associations with Clients Interconnections between Logical Nodes Exchange of the information between projects...

6 GridSoftware & The IEC Our expertise with the IEC is built on two segments: engineering and development expertise. Not only our engineers pioneered in some of the first IEC implementations, but they also teamed up with our communication experts to develop the IEC protocol libraries and engineering tools targeted for the system providers and their equipment. We combined these two segments to create the IEC leading Test and Simulation software packages. Such experience allowed us to understand the IEC from inside out and call ourselves true IEC experts. About The IEC Training Material The course material is designed to follow Hands On part. Our initial goal is to have you built solid understanding about the models and modeling methods defined by the IEC standards. However, we believe being practical as much as possible would only give you the hands on experience and the confidence you need to deal with future IEC systems.
