ABB’s 615 series protection and control IEDs 
together with the COM600 Station Automation 
device constitute a genuine IEC 61850 solution for 
reliable power distribution in utility and industrial 
power systems. To facilitate and streamline the 
system engineering ABB’s IEDs are supplied with 
Connectivity Packages containing a compilation of 
so ware and IED-speci c information including 
single-line diagram templates, a full IED data model 
including event and parameter lists. By utilizing 
the Connectivity Packages the IEDs can be readily 
con gured via the PCM600 Protection and Control 
IED Manager and integrated with the COM600 
Station Automation device or the MicroSCADA Pro 
network control and management system.
  e 615 series IEDs o er native support for the IEC 
61850 standard also including horizontal GOOSE 
messaging. Compared with traditional hard-wired 
inter-device signaling, peer-to-peer communication 
over a switched Ethernet LAN o ers an advanced 
and versatile platform for power system protection. 
Fast so ware-based communication, continuous 
supervision of the integrity of the protection and 
communication system, and inherent  exibility for 
recon guration and upgrades are among the distinctive 
features of the protection system approach enabled by 
the full implementation of the IEC 61850 substation 
automation standard. 
At the substation level COM600 utilizes the data 
content of the design level IEDs to o er enhanced 
substation level functionality. COM600 features a 
web-browser based HMI providing a customizable 
graphical display for visualizing single line mimic 
diagrams for switchgear design solutions. To 
enhance personnel safety, the web HMI also enables 
remote access to substation devices and processes. 
Furthermore, COM600 can be used as a local data 
warehouse for technical documentation of the 
substation and for network data collected by the 
IEDs.   e collected network data facilitates extensive 
reporting and analyzing of network fault situations 
using the data historian and event handling features of 
COM600.
COM600 also features gateway functionality 
providing seamless connectivity between the 
substation IEDs and network-level control and 
management systems such as MicroSCADA Pro and 
System 800xA.
