An exemplary method and system are disclosed for coordinated transfer of control in a substation system having IED or logical devices/servers using GOOSE messages with preconfigured data models with logical nodes containing one or more data objects including private data objects (DO) connected in the substation communication network. The method for transfer of control can be illustrated for hot-standby device management and for other applications such as logical isolation of merging unit in a substation and load sharing between IEDs. The method can be used for devices that do not have MMS stack.

Method for transfer of control between devices in a substation system and a device thereof

A method is disclosed for configuring an intelligent electronic device (IED) that includes enabling dynamic capability of the IED by a flexible data modeling technique to dynamically adapt a data model based on an application requirement using a configuration tool. A substation automation system is also disclosed which includes a local system equipment having a plurality of IEDs associated with the local system equipment and an IED configuration tool configured to interact with the firmware of each IED to configure the IED based on application requirements. The application configuration tool can include dynamic capability information of the IED to enable a flexible data model in the IED.

Method for configuring an intelligent electronic device and a substation automation system

A method, a substation automation apparatus and an intelligent electronic device (IED) are disclosed which are, for example, not limited only to publishing data (data emanating) from the IED. An exemplary method includes assigning a unique identifier to one or more data fields, where the one or more data fields is associated with a short address attribute in the data emanating from the intelligent electronic device; and dynamically updating the identifier based on user specific configuration data by an IED application configuration tool. The IED can include a list of functions; (e.g., each function being represented as a logical node; and each logical node containing data objects); and a flexible addressing scheme for configuring the data objects and publishing data from the IED, but not only data emanating from IED.
