OVE EN 61850-8-1

This part of IEC 61850 specifies a method of exchanging time-critical and non-time-critical data through local-area networks by mapping ACSI to MMS and ISO/IEC 8802-3 frames. MMS services and protocol are specified to operate over an OSI-A-Profile and TCP T-Profile. The use of MMS allows provisions for supporting both centralized and distributed architectures. This standard includes the exchange of real-time data indications, control operations, report notification. It specifies the mapping of the objects and services of the ACSI (Abstract Communication Service Interface, IEC 61850-7-2) to MMS (Manufacturing Message Specification, ISO 9506) and ISO/IEC 8802-3 frames. This standard also specifies the mapping of time-critical information exchanges to non-MMS protocol. The protocol semantics are defined in IEC 61850-7-2. It contains the protocol syntax, definition, mapping to ISO/IEC 8802-3 frame formats and any relevant procedures specific to the use of ISO/IEC 8802-3. This mapping of ACSI to MMS defines how the concepts, objects, and services of the ACSI are to be implemented using MMS concepts, objects, and services. This mapping allows interoperability across functions implemented by different manufacturers.
