Keeping Standards up-to-date

Standards are living documents which reflect progress in science, technology and
systems. To maintain their currency, all Standards are periodically reviewed, and
new editions are published. Between editions, amendments may be issued.
Standards may also be withdrawn. It is important that readers assure themselves
they are using a current Standard, which should include any amendments which
may have been published since the Standard was purchased.
Detailed information about Standards can be found by visiting the Standards Web
Shop at www.standards.com.au and looking up the relevant Standard in the on-line
catalogue.
Alternatively, the printed Catalogue provides information current at 1 January each
year, and the monthly magazine, The Global Standard, has a full listing of revisions
and amendments published each month.
Australian StandardsTM and other products and services developed by Standards
Australia are published and distributed under contract by SAI Global, which
operates the Standards Web Shop.
We also welcome suggestions for improvement in our Standards, and especially
encourage readers to notify us immediately of any apparent inaccuracies or
ambiguities. Contact us via email at mail@standards.org.au, or write to the Chief
Executive, Standards Australia, GPO Box 476, Sydney, NSW 2001.

This Standard was issued in draft form for comment as DR 05213.

INTRODUCTION

This part of IEC 61850 defines the SCSM for sampled values over ISO/IEC 8802-3. The intent
of this SCSM definition is to supplement IEC 61850-9-1 to include the complete mapping of the
sampled value model.

This part of IEC 61850 applies to electronic current and voltage transformers (ECT and EVT
having a digital output), merging units, and intelligent electronic devices for example
protection units, bay controllers and meters.

Process bus communication structures can be arranged in different ways as described in

Annex B and IEC 61850-1. In addition to the transmission of sampled value data sets, which
are directly connected to ISO/IEC 8802-3, a selection of IEC 61850-8-1 services are
necessary to support the access to the SV control block. References to the relevant
IEC 61850-8-1 services are provided in this SCSM. For less complex devices (for example

merging units) the sampled value control block can be pre-configured, in which case there is
no need to implement IEC 61850-8-1 services based on the MMS-Stack.

This document defines the mapping of sampled value class model (IEC 61850-7-2) to
ISO/IEC 8802-3. This SCSM, in combination with IEC 61850-7 and IEC 61850-6, allows
interoperability between devices from different manufacturers.

This standard does not specify individual implementations or products, nor does it constrain
the implementation of entities and interfaces within a computer system. This standard
specifies the externally visible functionality of implementations together with conformance
requirements for such functionalities.

Reading Guide
• This document is an extended mapping specification of IEC 61850-9-1 and IEC 61850-
8-1 to cover sampled value transmission over ISO/IEC 8802-3.
• This document can best be understood if the reader is thoroughly familiar with
IEC 61850-7-1, IEC 61850-7-2, IEC 61850-7-3 and IEC 61850-7-4.
• The ACSI services defined in IEC 61850-7-2 are not explained in this part of the
standard.

Part 9.2: Specific communication service mapping (SCSM)—Sampled
values over ISO/IEC 8802-3

1 Scope

This part of IEC 61850 defines the Specific Communication Service Mapping (SCSM) for the
transmission of sampled values according to the abstract specification in IEC 61850-7-2. The
mapping is that of the abstract model on a mixed stack using direct access to an
This is a free 9 page sample. Access the full version at http://infostore.saiglobal.com.

ISO/IEC 8802-3 link for the transmission of the samples in combination with IEC 61850-8-1.

Each SCSM consists of three parts:

– a specification of the communication stack being used,

– the mapping of the abstract specifications of IEC 61850-7 on the real elements of the
stack being used, and
– the implementation specification of functionality, that is not covered by the stack being
used.
