Figure C.3 Enhancing Multidrop Networks With SEL Communications
Processors
In this example, the SEL communications processor provides the following
enhancements when compared to a system that employs only the multidrop
network:
➤ Ethernet access for IEDs with serial ports
➤ Backup engineering access through the dial-in modem
➤ IRIG-B time signal distribution to all station IEDs
➤ Integration of IEDs without Ethernet
➤ Single point of access for real-time data for SCADA,
HMI, and other uses
➤ Significant cost savings by use of existing IEDs
with serial ports
