Communication profile
The IEC 61850 standard is conceptually written to be independent of an existing
communication media and message transmission concept. Out of this, a specific
communication profile is decided and has been commonly used. The profile contains:
• Ethernet as the media
• TCP/IP
• ISO session and presentation layer
• MMS (Manufacturing Message Specification (ISO 9506-1 and ISO 9506-2)
The IEC 61850 standard describes its requested services in ACSI, which is contained
in part 7-2 of the standard. The mapping to the MMS for all aspects of services and
Ethernet usage is specified in part 8-1 of IEC 61850.
Each device manufacturer, which is a partner of an IEC 61850 based communication
network, has to take these two specifications and adapt their respective product to the
requirements and definitions given in the standard. To make this profile visible to all
other partners, so they can check what they can expect and what they have to support,
the PICS document is defined. The PICS contains in a table based form the possibility
of a product or product family.
