REX615 IEC 61850 Engineering Guide

Access point configuration facilitates usage of different IP addresses in Network1 and Network2.

Basic IEC 61850 configurations support one server data model (SCL/IED/ AccessPoint/Server) in the defined network address.

The relay also supports a second access point with a ServerAt definition (SCL/IED/ AccessPoint/ServerAt). In this case, the same data model is visible on both access points.

Most FPN configurations contain only one access point. If the template project contains multiple access points for one relay, the unnecessary extra access points need to be filtered away in the tool.

SCL configuration checklist

FPN configuration cannot exceed the ABB relay's capabilities. When not matching, the FPN system configuration needs to be adjusted in the system tool or manually in SCL.

One standard rule needs to be considered in exiting SCD files.

  • SCL/Communicaton/Subnetwork/@type must be “8-MMS”.

One ABB-specific limitation must also be considered.

  • SCL/IED/Accesspoint/@name must not exceed the ABB device limit of 20.
