5. Supported ABB solutionsABB’s 615 series protection and control IEDstogether with the Grid Automation controllerCOM600 constitute a genuine IEC 61850 solutionfor reliable power distribution in utility andindustrial power systems. To facilitate andstreamline the system engineering ABB’s IEDs aresupplied with Connectivity Packages containing acompilation of software and IED-specificinformation including single-line diagramtemplates, a full IED data model including eventand parameter lists. By utilizing the ConnectivityPackages the IEDs can be readily configured viathe PCM600 Protection and Control IED Managerand integrated with the Grid Automation controllerCOM600 or the MicroSCADA Pro network controland management system.The 615 series IEDs offer native support for theIEC 61850 standard also including binary andanalog horizontal GOOSE messaging. Comparedwith traditional hard-wired inter-device signaling,peer-to-peer communication over a switchedEthernet LAN offers an advanced and versatileplatform for power system protection. Fastsoftware-based communication, continuoussupervision of the integrity of the protection andcommunication system, and inherent flexibility forreconfiguration and upgrades are among thedistinctive features of the protection systemapproach enabled by the full implementation ofthe IEC 61850 substation automation standard.At the substation level COM600 uses the datacontent of the bay level IEDs to offer enhancedsubstation level functionality. COM600 features aweb-browser based HMI providing acustomizable graphical display for visualizingsingle line mimic diagrams for switchgear baysolutions. The SLD feature is especially usefulwhen 615 series IEDs without the optional singleline diagram feature are used. Further, the webHMI of COM600 offers an overview of the wholesubstation, including IED-specific single linediagrams, thus enabling convenient informationaccessibility. To enhance personnel safety, theweb HMI also enables remote access tosubstation devices and processes. Furthermore,COM600 can be used as a local data warehousefor technical documentation of the substation andfor network data collected by the IEDs. Thecollected network data facilitates extensivereporting and analyzing of network fault situationsusing the data historian and event handlingfeatures of COM600. The data historian can beused for accurate process performancemonitoring by following process and equipmentperformance calculations with real-time andhistory values. Better understanding of theprocess behaviour by joining time-based processmeasurements with production and maintenanceevents helps the user in understanding theprocess dynamics.COM600 also features gateway functionalityproviding seamless connectivity between thesubstation IEDs and network-level control andmanagement systems such as MicroSCADA Proand System 800xATable 3.
