System Engineer Configures IEC 61850 Gateway to DNP3 Substation

1 Description of Function

1.1 Function Name

System Engineer Configures IEC 61850 Gateway to DNP3 Substation

1.2 Function ID

DNP3-IEC6850-2

1.3 Brief Description

Given DNP-XML Device Profiles for a substation automation system consisting of multiple DNP3 devices, a system engineer configures a gateway device so an IEC 61850 Client can control and monitor the substation using IEC 61850.

1.4 Narrative

Key issues include:

• How are points selected from the DNP devices? Is there an internal DNP3 point map in the gateway that can be used to specify points?

• Should the final configuration of the gateway be performed using an SCD file, or by updating the DNP-XML files of the various devices?
