4. Product overview
SPA-ZC 400 is used to connect one REF 541/3/5, REM 543/5 or
RET 541/3/5 device to the IEC 61850 Station bus. The IEC 61850 standard
defines the IEC 61850 communication and engineering specifications. In
addition to the IEC 61850 communication, SPA-ZC400EMP and
SPA-ZC400EMG versions provide simultaneous dual port communication
for fibre-optic SPA and LON. SPA-ZC 400 offers also the possibility to
access the device with the SPA protocol over the TCP/IP network using the
same Ethernet link.

The mechanical and electrical connection of the Ethernet adapter to a
REF 541/3/5, REM 543/5 or RET 541/3/5 interface is described in
Section 5. Installation. The Ethernet adapter programming is described in
Section 6. Engineering.
It is a prerequisite to understand the communication properties of Intelligent
Electronic Devices (IED) before connecting to the Ethernet adapter. This
information is available in the manual for the protection relay in question. It is
also necessary to have basic understanding of the IEC 61850 system to which
the IEDs will be connected.
ABB has tested the following third-party devices, which are recommended to
be used with SPA-ZC 400:

4.1. SPA-ZC400EMP and SPA-ZC400EMG
SPA-ZC400EMP and SPA-ZC400EMG versions have the same IEC 61850
functionality as described in Section 4. Product overview. In addition, these
versions include an optional fibre-optic interface.
The optional interface provides a connection between the REF 541/3/5,
REM 543/5 or RET 541/3/5 device and the fibre-optic SPA and LON. The
bus connection module converts incoming optical signals from the SPA and
LON bus to electrical RS-485 signals for the REF 541/3/5, REM 543/5 and
RET 541/3/5 devices and vice versa. It contains a service pin for LON nodes.
The optional interface can be used in loop- and star-type bus topologies. It is
possible to select the idle state of module line. The light can be turn on or off.
The jumpers select the bus topology (loop or star) depending on whether the
light is turned on or off.
In the loop topology, the interface receives the message from the fibre-optic
interface and passes it both to the fibre-optic transmitter and to the RS-485
interface. In the star topology, the interface receives the message from the
fibre-optic receiver and passes it only to the RS-485 interface. If the message
is received from the RS-485 interface, it is passed to the fibre-optic
transmitter in both bus topologies.
The SPA bus communication uses loop and light off modes, when the module
jumpers are in loop- and light off- positions. The LON bus communication
uses star and light off modes, when the module jumpers are in star- and light
off-positions.
In the LON bus communication the optional interface supports collision
detection. The service pin is connected via the RS-485 interface to the
device's Neuron chip, which is connected to the interface.

4.2. Features
SPA-ZC 400 has the following features:
*IEC 61850 connectivity for REF 541/3/5 , REM 543/5 and RET 541/3/5
*Easy-to-use configuration tool for the IEC 61850 data mapping
*Simultaneous dual port communication (SPA-ZC400EMP and SPA-
ZC400EMG versions) for IEC 61850 and LON/SPA (excluding event
polling)
*Support of communication over TCP/IP
All relay data can be routed through SPA-ZC 400. The process data (status,
measurements and commands) is routed through the IEC 61850 bus and the
rest of the available data can be routed through SPA over TCP/IP.
Only one SPA client can be configured to poll SPA events from
the device. By default SPA-ZC 400 is configured to poll SPA
events, then it is not allowed to poll SPA events from another
SPA client.
If the event polling is disabled, the timestamp accuracy depends
on the IED configuration and the SPA bus speed.

4.3. IEC 61850 standard
The IEC 61850 standard is a comprehensive and durable standard, which
defines the communication between Intelligent Electronic Devices (IED) in
substations. It is not dependent on any application and offers one protocol
which answers to all requirements in substation. The configuration of the
protocol is flexible. When using the IEC 61850 standard, it is possible to
allocate the functions and integrate the functionality freely.
The IEC 61850 standard supports the following functions:
*Protection and control
*Integration of innovative sensor and switch technologies
*Metering, supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA)
*Remote monitoring and fault diagnostics
*Automated dispatch and control
