Abstract

This chapter describes the recommendations and best practices of implementing PAC functions and schemes that are planned and designed as per IEC 61850 discussed in Chap. 7. It covers the architecture and general principles of describing functional schemes based on CIGRE technical brochures and the Substation PACS IEC 61850 model guide of one of the largest global utilities. This includes description of exemplars for protection function, automation functionality and process interface use case. This chapter also includes description of two actual case studies for Substation SCADA Automation application and Primary distribution substation automatic bus transfer scheme.
