IEC 61850/61400 Model Designer
1. Introduction
The IED Modeler/Designer is a comprehensive IED oriented SCL modelling tool for IEC
61850/61400 and companion standards. It has been designed to keep pace with the evolution of
standards.
Model Designer has been designed to address the diverse requirements of different types of users.
It can be used by IEC 61850 Standard developers, IED vendors, stack vendors, researchers,
engineers, utilities companies and people who are interested in applying Model Driven
Architecture in system design. Feedback from this broad user base is allowing the product to
evolve and we are continually adding new features to simplify the introduction of IEC
61850/61400 into production environments.
This user manual is delivered in four independent documents which need not be read in sequence.
Part One: IED Model Design
This section is fundamental and provides details on installation, GUI layout, system settings,
project management, create/import/modify/export ICD/CID/IID, extract CID from SCD, and
generation of TEMPLATE ICD etc., The Intelligent Creation feature greatly reduces the time
and effort required to build error-free IED models. It assists in customizing data types, creation of
LNs of different LNodeTypes, creation of DataSet and Control Blocks, initializing DOI values
and configuring Communication parameters etc. These tasks can be conveniently completed with
the help of user friendly Wizards. Batch editing of Attribute Values and Element Values is also
now possible using external tools like Excel. Search Utilities allow convenient searching for
project items. They use a Fuzzy search algorithm, allowing context search of documentation for
each Element and Attribute.
Part Two: Domain Design
This section introduces simplified high level Domain design utilizing UML technologies. Like
other UML tools in the market, Domain design is based on Diagrams. Here we introduce Data
Type Diagrams and Domain Diagrams. These are much like Class Diagrams and Component
Diagrams in UML but more powerful and convenient. The tool will remove the need for third
party Domain support. It can simplify the creation of an Edition 2.0 package for Wind Power to a
one-two hour task or even faster if worked on by an IEC member who is in charge of designing
this domain.
Part Three: IED Model Extension
This section explains how to embed private model information into SCL without breaking any
rules defined in IEC 61850-6. This capability is needed since SCL is often missing information
e.g PLC logic equations and internal mappings etc., SCL usually does not address non-IEC 61850
and vendor-specific parameters configuration, all of which can be essential to running an
application. Introducing this information requires model extension according to IEC 61850-6.
Model Designer provides a cutting-edge, vendor-independent, flexible and programmable way to
accomplish this task.

Part Four: IED Model Validation
This section introduces Schema Check, Integrity Check and Semantic Check against rules defined
by IEC 61850 Standards. Schema Check is the most popular feature used in most commercially
available tools to confirm that SCL is error free. However experience shows that Schema
checking alone is insufficient to catch many errors in SCL dynamic structures and semantic
constraints.
Consider the following example:
The Schema Check is OK for the two DataSet entries above. However they are actually incorrect
according to IEC 61850-6. PhV.phsA is DO.SDO, not DA. They should be corrected to:
Schema Check is blind to these errors and tools from many vendors “accept” these errors. This
results in IEDs arriving in production and not following rules defined in IEC 61850-6.
IED Model Validation is a critical. Model Designer implements Integrity Check which can
detect errors that are blind to Schema Check.
Semantic Check is a feature under development and will be available in later releases.
