Configuration module for subscribing and publishing GOOSE messages
GOOSE Configuration Module
The GOOSE Configuration Module configures the mappings and sets up the test set for communicating with the GOOSE messages on the substation network. Like any OMICRON test module, it can be inserted multiple times in test plans to automatically reconfigure the "wiring" whenever required. To facilitate parameter entry and to avoid typing errors, the parameters can be imported from configuration files in the standardized SCL (Substation Configuration Language) format.
Features & Benefits
CMC test sets operate with status data in GOOSE messages as if they were "wired" to the binary inputs and outputs. Data attributes from received (subscribed) GOOSE messages actuate the binary inputs of the test set (for instance Trip or Start signals). Binary outputs actuate data attributes in simulated (published) GOOSE messages. By this generic approach, all test modules of the OMICRON Test Universe can be used with GOOSE.
All IEC 61850 types and structures are allowed in a GOOSE dataset. Mappings are provided for Boolean, Bit-String, Enum, Integer, and Unsigned.
Applications
- The GOOSE Configuration Module extends the application CMC test sets to protection testing with IEC 61850 GOOSE messages.
- The GOOSE functions are available for the CMC 850, the CMC 356, the CMC 353, the CMC 256plus, and the CMC 256-6 with NET-1 Option.
- The timing performance of the message exchange is according to Type 1A; Class P2/3 (IEC 61850-5, "Trip" - "most important fast message").
IEC 61850 Package
Since the different IEC 61850 testing tasks are typically performed together, OMICRON has bundled its commonly used tools in one package. It consists of IEDScout and the CMC configuration modules for GOOSE and Sampled Values.
