device to the IEC 61850-8-1 Station bus. SPA and LON®.

IEC 61850 is the new standard for substation More information on how to physically con-
communication. Additionally to being a com- nect the device can be found in the chapter 5
munication standard, it also supports general of the Installation and Commissioning man-
substation automation functions as well as the ual. SPA-ZC 400 programming is described
engineering process. in the Installation and commissioning man-
ual, chapter 6, Engineering.
IEC 61850 GOOSE is used in substation
automation for fast horizontal communication As a prerequisite, you should understand the
between IEDs to send, for example, interlock- communication properties of IED that is to be
