REX615 IEC 61850 Engineering Guide

The sending data set is defined with the GOOSE control block. A maximum of 120 data attributes can be added to the IED's GOOSE data sets. The recommendation is to divide the attribute amount to 20 per GOOSE data set, for maximum performance in sender and receiver.

All data sets must be configured under the logical node LLN0 and must be provided with unique names in the relay. For more information on GOOSE data sets, see Table 2. In simple GOOSE applications it is often sufficient to define a single data set and control block for an application. However, it is recommended to use a separate data set and corresponding control block for analog values.

  1. Select the target IED in the Plant Structure view.
  2. Select GOOSE Communication in the drop-down box on the toolbar.

  3. Select the Data Sets tab.
  4. To add a new data set, right-click the area containing the data set names and select New.
    Figure 2. Creating a new data set
  5. Define the LN where the data set is to be placed (accept preselected “ LD0/ LLN0”) and give the data set a unique name.
    Figure 3. Naming the data set

After creating the GOOSE data sets, define the data set entries (data attributes or data objects) for the data sets.

Note: If quality data attributes are added to a data set, they should be located after the status value of the corresponding data object. The reason for this is compatibility with other devices.

The received GOOSE data set can contain signals on the data attribute or data object level. However, it is strongly recommended that GOOSE data sets be made on the data attribute level for faster data processing.

Note: Access point based transmitting and receiving of GOOSE to a specific network or port is not supported by the protection relay. By default, GOOSE is transmitted to and received from all Network1 ports. Network2 ports do not support GOOSE or SMV. Port-based filters can be used if the transmitting or receiving of GOOSE must be limited to specific Ethernet ports. See the technical manual for more information.
