Grid Interconnection

Gives rules for defining information elements and presents a set of information elements, in particular of digital and analog process variables frequently used in telecontrol applications.
This publication is of high relevance for Smart Grid.

Applies to telecontrol equipment and systems with coded bit serial data transmission for monitoring and controlling geographically widespread processes. It defines a telecontrol companion standard that enables interoperability among compatible telecontrol equipment.

IEC 60870-5-101:2003+A1:2015 Applies to telecontrol equipment and systems with coded bit serial data transmission for monitoring and controlling geographically widespread processes. Defines a telecontrol companion standard that enables interoperability among compatible telecontrol equipment. The defined telecontrol companion standard utilizes standards of the IEC 60870-5 series of documents.

IEC 60870-5-104:2006+A1:2016 Defines a telecontrol companion standard that enables interoperability among compatible telecontrol equipment. Applies to telecontrol equipment and systems with coded bit serial data transmission for monitoring and controlling geographically widespread processes.
This publication is of high relevance for Smart Grid. This consolidated version consists of the second edition (2006) and its amendment 1 (2012). Therefore, no need to order amendment in addition to this publication.

IEC TS 60870-5-601:2015(E) describes test cases for conformance testing of telecontrol equipment, Substation Automation Systems (SAS) and telecontrol systems, including front-end functions of SCADA. The use of this part of IEC 60870 facilitates interoperability by providing a standard method of testing protocol implementations, but it does not guarantee interoperability of devices. It is expected that using this part of IEC 60870 during testing will minimize the risk of non-interoperability.

IEC TS 60870-5-604:2016(E) RLV contains both the official IEC International Standard and its Redline version. The Redline version is not an official document, it is available in English only and provides you with a quick and easy way to compare all the changes between the official IEC Standard and its previous edition.
