Lon Communication Protocol - ABB RELION 670 Series Applications Manual

1MRK 511 364-UUS A
To get higher availability in the protection functions, it is possible to avoid blocking if time
synchronization is lost when there is a single source of analog data. This means that if there is only
one physical MU and no TRM, parameter
HwSyncSrc can still be set to PPS . This will keep analog and binary data correlated in disturbance
recordings while not blocking the protection functions if PPS is lost.

Figure 101: Example of LON communication structure for a substation automation system
An optical network can be used within the substation automation system. This enables
communication with the IEDs through the LON bus from the operator's workplace, from the
control center and also from other IEDs via bay-to-bay horizontal communication.
The fiber optic LON bus is implemented using either glass core or plastic core fiber optic cables.
