ACSELERATOR Architect
Software
The Architect Software enables users to design and commission IEC 61850
substations containing SEL IEDs. Users can use Architect to do the following:
➤ Organize and configure all SEL IEDs in a substation project.
➤ Configure incoming and outgoing GOOSE messages.
➤ Edit and create GOOSE datasets.
➤ Read non-SEL IED Capability Description (ICD) and
Configured IED Description (CID) files and determine the
available IEC 61850 messaging options.
➤ Use or edit preconfigured datasets for reports.
➤ Load IEC 61850 CID files into SEL IEDs.
➤ Generate ICD and CID files that provide SEL IED descriptions
to other manufacturers' tools so they can use SEL GOOSE
messages and reporting features.
➤ Edit dead-band settings for measured values.
Architect provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for users to select, edit,
and create IEC 61850 GOOSE messages important for substation protection,
coordination, and control schemes. Typically, the user first places icons
representing IEDs in a substation container, then edits the outgoing GOOSE
messages or creates new ones for each IED. The user can also select incoming
GOOSE messages for each IED to receive from any other IEDs in the domain.
Some measured values are reported to IEC 61850 only when the value
changes beyond a defined dead-band value. Architect allows a dead band to be
changed during the CID file configuration. Check and set the dead-band values for
your particular application when configuring the CID file for a device.
Architect has the capability to read other manufacturers' ICD and CID files,
enabling the user to map the data seamlessly into SEL IED logic. See the
Architect online help for more information.
SEL ICD File Versions
ACSELERATOR Architect version R.1.1.69.0 and later supports multiple ICD
file versions for each type of IED in a project. Because relays with different
firmware versions may require different CID file versions, users can manage
the CID files of all IEDs within a single project.
Please ensure that you work with the appropriate version of
ACSELERATOR
Architect relative to your current configuration, existing project files, and
ultimate goals. If you want the best available IEC 61850 functionality for your
SEL relay, obtain the latest version of
ACSELERATOR Architect and select the
appropriate ICD version(s) for your needs. Architect generates CID files from
ICD files, so the ICD file version Architect uses also determines the CID file
version generated. Details about the different SEL-751 ICD files can be found
in Table A .7.
The Logical Nodes description detailed in this manual revision corresponds to
the SEL-751 006 ICD file. Information about the previous SEL-751 004 ICD
files can be found in the previous manual revisions. Please refer to Table A.7
to find the manual revision corresponding to the ICD file you are using.
