A device uses linking rules to process and optionally update a hierarchical substation model of a power system substation. The linking rules determine to which substation object at a first hierarchy level substation objects at a further hierarchy level of the hierarchical substation model are to be connected.

Device and method for controlling an interface for a power utility

To facilitate storage of data from plural data sources of an industrial automation control system, power distribution system or power generation system, a decision making device executes a machine learning algorithm to determine a compression technique in dependence on the data source from which data originates.

Method and device for facilitating storage of data from an industrial automation control system or power system

A method is provided for configuring communication of data points from producers of data points of an industrial automation control system, power distribution system, power generation system, and/or power transmission system to a consumer of data points. The method includes receiving, by a configuration device, information on required data points. The required data points are a subset of all available data points and are the set of data points required by the consumer of data points. The configuration device automatically determines a communication configuration of data points for transmission of the required data points from the producers to the consumer.

Configuration device and method for configuring data point communication for an industrial system

A method includes transmitting time-critical messages in an OSI layer 2 network tunnel from a first IED in a first substation to a second IED in a second substation over a WAN, wherein each of the first and second substation comprises an edge IED and is associated with a substation LAN, wherein each of the time-critical messages comprises message parameters. The method includes: creating a translation table comprising corresponding values of the message parameters, between the LANs and the WAN; defining a virtual IED in the second substation using the translated values of the message parameters, to impersonate the first IED; translating the message parameters according to the translation table, by the edge IED of the first and second substation; forwarding the time-critical messages from the first IED in the first substation to the WAN; and receiving the time-critical messages by the second IED in the second substation from the WAN.
