Additionally to being a com-munication standard, it also supports generalsubstation automation functions as well as theengineering process.The GOOSE messaging of the IEC 61850standard is used in substation automation forfast horizontal communication between Intel-ligent Electronic Devices (IED) to send, forexample, interlocking and blocking informa-tion.SPA-ZC 400 also enables ethernet access toan IED using the SPA over TCP/IP and Mod-bus over TCP/IP.In addition to the IEC 61850-8 communicationthe SPA-ZC 400 optionally enables simulta-neous dual port communication for fibre-opticSPA and LON®.More information on how to physically con-nect the device can be found in the chapter 5of the Installation and Commissioning man-ual. SPA-ZC 400 programming is describedin the Installation and commissioning man-ual, chapter 6, Engineering.As a prerequisite, you should understand thecommunication properties of the IED that isto be connected to Ethernet adapter. Thisinformation is available in the manual for theprotection IED in question.1MRS755450Issued: 08.11.2004Status: UpdatedVersion:D/20.05.2009Data subject to change without notice
