Summary

The deployment of Protection, Automation and Control Systems (PACS) using IEC 61850 process bus constitutes a major development. The scope, goals and design of these projects vary widely. In order to enable a realistic technical and economic evaluation of these technologies, WG B5.69 was created to perform a review on this subject. This Technical Brochure is intended to serve as a comprehensive resource for utilities, manufacturers, and system integrators involved in the evaluation and deployment of digital substations using IEC 61850 process bus, helping them navigate the challenges and opportunities associated with this transformative technology.
