Abstract
The present application is concerned with a method for loading configuration data to a first Intelligent Electronic Device IED in a Substation Automation SA system, wherein the SA system included a second IED connected to the first IED via a communication network. The method includes: determining a first SID for the first IED by means of a neighbour ship relation, wherein the neighbour ship relation is predefined and indicative of a relative arrangement of the first and second IED in the communication network; assigning the first SID to the first IED; and obtaining first configuration data corresponding to the first SID, and loading the first configuration data to the first IED. The Global Identification GID of the first IED may be determined from the communication network, and the first SID can be linked with the GID of the first IED. The present application concerns also an active IED for configuration of a new or replaced IED in the substation system, according to the above mentioned method.
