The sending data set is defined with the GOOSE control block. With the IEDs of this product series, the sending GOOSE data set can have a maximum of 20 data attributes to minimize the message-handling load in the receiving and sending IEDs.

All data sets must be configured under the logical node LLN0 and must be provided with names unique within the IED. The IEDs allow a maximum of four GOOSE control blocks, which effectively limits the IED to four data sets for GOOSE, as there is a one-to-one correspondence between the GOOSE control blocks and GOOSE data sets. Typically, it is 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.

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

Figure 1. Selecting GOOSE communication
Select the Data Sets tab.
To add a new data set, right-click the area containing the data set names and select New.
Define the LN where the data set is to be placed (accept preselected “LD0/ LLN0”) and give the data set a unique name.

A maximum of 80 data attributes can be added to IED's GOOSE data sets. Recommendation is to divide attribute amount to 20 per GOOSE data set, for maximum performance in sender/receiver. After creating the GOOSE data sets, define the data set entries (data attributes or data objects) for the data sets.

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 must be located after the status value of the corresponding data object.

The received GOOSE data set can contain signals on the data attribute or data object level. Data object level GOOSE entries can only be received of the following CDC types: SPS, SPC, ACD, ACT, DPS, DPC, INC, INS, ENC and ENS. Other CDC types can be connected to application only when dataset is defined in attribute level.
