Xelas Energy - Windpower Solutions

For the management of wind power plants, The IEC developed a dedicated management standard, IEC 61400-25. This comprehensive standard describes the information model, the exchange model and the mapping to various communication protocols, used between wind turbines (they are regarded as IEC “servers”) and the SCADA management system of the network operator (they are regarded as IEC “client systems”). The 61400-25 information model is very comparable to the 61850 models, and Xelas Energy could elegantly included the support of this standard in its development tools and testing tools. So- wherever we discuss/mention IEC 61850, the support of the IEC 61400 specifics is implicitly included.

Xelas Energy - Conformance Test Suite

Vendors, who develop their own 61850 network devices or management systems want to be sure about their compliance and system documentation, long before they get the external official certificate. During system upgrades, customer integration tests or during development projects there is a steady need to verify functions are conformant to the standard. Using the test suite also helps for detailed understanding about the way the IEC-61850 standard is structured. During substation engineering, especially when using multiple vendors, standard conformance testing can save a lot of time. The integration of DER, distributed energy resources such as wind and solar, also requires further standardization because of the diversity of DER systems.
