ABB IEC 61850 Edition 2 User Manual

Section 4 Communication profile
GUID-25495333-A2B7-44A7-908D-68EC06694AD5 v6
The IEC 61850 standard is conceptually written to be independent of an existing
communication media and message transmission concept. Out of this, a specific
communication profile is decided and has been commonly used.
The profile
contains:
•
Ethernet as the media
• TCP/IP
• ISO session and presentation layer
• MMS (Manufacturing Message Specification (ISO 9506-1 and ISO 9506-2)
The IEC 61850 standard describes its requested services in ACSI, which is
contained in part 7-2 of the standard. The mapping to the MMS for all aspects of
services and Ethernet usage is specified in part 8-1 of IEC 61850.
Each device manufacturer, which is a partner of an IEC 61850 based
communication network, has to take these two specifications and adapt their
respective product to the requirements and definitions given in the standard. To
make this profile visible to all other partners, so they can check what they can
expect and what they have to support, the PICS document is defined. The PICS
contains in a table based form the possibility of a product or product family.
