Seamless Communication Architecture in Power Systems

The seamless communication protocol standard"Communication Substation Control Center via 61850",which is based on IEC 61850 and not on TASE.2,the features of IEC 61850 and the benefits from using IEC 61850 are introduced.The reasons that IEC 61850 is adopted by IEC TC57 as the basis of the seamless communication protocol standard are explained.Some comments are made on "New Fiber Ethernet SCADA On Electric Power Network SCADA and System Structure"(Vol.21),and it is indicated that IEC 61850 is compatible with IEC 61970 and has generic object models, supporting the interoperability,device integration , engineering and implementation.
