ERATOR
Architect
The
AC
SEL
ERATOR
Architect software enables protection and integration engineers to design
and commission IEC 61850 substations containing SEL IEDs.
Engineers can use
AC
SEL
ERATOR
Architect to:
• Organize and configure all SEL IEDs in a substation project
• Configure incoming and outgoing GOOSE messages
• Read non-SEL IED Capability Description (ICD) and Configured IED Description (CID)
files and determine the available IEC 61850 messaging options
• Load device settings and IEC 61850 CID files into SEL IEDs
• Generate ICD files that will provide SEL IED descriptions to other manufacturer’s tools
so they can use SEL GOOSE messages and reporting features
• Configure protection, logic, control, and communication settings of all SEL IEDs in the
substation
AC
SEL
ERATOR
Architect provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for engineers to select, edit,
and create IEC 61850 GOOSE messages important for substation protection, coordination, and
control schemes. Typically, the engineer first places icons representing IEDs in a substation
container, then edits the outgoing GOOSE messages or creates new ones for each IED. The
engineer may also select incoming GOOSE messages for each IED to receive from any other
IEDs in the domain.
AC
SEL
ERATOR
Architect has the capability to read other manufacturer’s
ICD and CID files, enabling the engineer to map the data seamlessly into SEL IED logic. See
the
AC
SEL
ERATOR
Architect Instruction Manual or online help for more information.
SEL ICD File Versions
AC
SE
LERATOR
Architect version R1.1.69.0 and higher supports multiple ICD file versions for
each type of IED in a project. Because relays with different Ethernet port firmware may require
different CID file versions, this allows users to manage the CID files of all IEDs within a single
project.
Please ensure that you work with the appropriate version of
AC
SE
LERATOR
Architect relative to
your current configuration, existing project files, and ultimate goals. If you desire the best
available IEC 61850 functionality for your SEL relay, obtain the latest version of
AC
SE
LERATOR
Architect and select the appropriate ICD version(s) for your needs.
