IEC 61850 is a standard for the design of electrical substation automation and integrates all the protection, control, measurement and monitoring functions by a common protocol. IEC 61850 protocols support services such as Generic Object Oriented Substation Events (GOOSE) and Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) to be implemented at high speed. The communication using IEC 61850 GOOSE replaces point to point copper wiring between the Intelligent Electronic Devices (IED) in conventional substations with high speed communication over Ethernet technology.
