1 Introduction
ABB Ability™ Smart Substation Control and Protection for electrical systems
SSC600 is a Smart Substation device designed for protection, control,
measurement and supervision of utility substations and industrial switchgear and
equipment. The design of the device has been guided by the IEC 61850 standard for
communication and interoperability of substation automation devices. It is fully
integrable with Relion series IEDs for creating a complete solution. Optional
functionality is available at the time of order for both software and hardware, for
example, special application packages and additional communication modules.
Figure 1: SSC600
1.1 Communication
The IED supports the IEC 61850 standard and its specified GOOSE, MMS and
SAV/SMV communication profiles. Operational information and controls are
available through these protocols.
The IEC 61850 communication implementation supports all monitoring and control
functions. Additionally, parameter settings, disturbance recordings and fault
records can be accessed using the IEC 61850 protocol. Disturbance recordings are
available to any Ethernet-based application in the IEC 60255-24 standard
COMTRADE file format. The IED can receive binary signals from other devices (so-
called horizontal communication) using the IEC 61850-8-1 GOOSE profile, where the
highest performance class with a total transmission time of 3 ms is supported.
Furthermore, the IED supports receiving of analog values using GOOSE messaging.
The IED meets the GOOSE performance requirements for class P1 (10 ms) tripping
applications in distribution substations, as defined by the IEC 61850 standard.
The IED can support five simultaneous clients for IEC 61850 MMS reporting. The IED
supports receiving sampled analogue measurements according to IEC 61850-9-2LE
from up to 30 Merging Units or other IEDs.

1.1.1 Ethernet redundancy
IEC 61850 specifies a network redundancy scheme that improves the system
availability for substation communication. It is based on parallel redundancy
protocol PRP-1 defined in the IEC 62439-3:2012 standard. The protocol relies on the
duplication of all transmitted information via two Ethernet ports for one logical
network connection. Therefore, it is able to overcome the failure of a link or switch
with a zero-switchover time, thus fulfilling the stringent real-time requirements for
the substation automation horizontal communication and time synchronization.
PRP specifies that each device is connected in parallel to two local area networks.
Thus, each device incorporates a switch element that forwards frames from port to
port.
IEC 62439-3:2012 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2010.
These standard versions are also referred to as IEC 62439-3 Edition 1 and
IEC 62439-3 Edition 2. The IED supports IEC 62439-3:2012 and it is not
compatible with IEC 62439-3:2010.
PRP
Each PRP node, called a doubly attached node with PRP (DAN), is attached to two
independent LANs operated in parallel. These parallel networks in PRP are called
LAN A and LAN B. The networks are completely separated to ensure failure
independence, and they can have different topologies. Both networks operate in
parallel, thus providing zero-time recovery and continuous checking of redundancy
to avoid communication failures. Non-PRP nodes, called single attached nodes
(SANs), are either attached to one network only (and can therefore communicate
only with DANs and SANs attached to the same network), or are attached through a
redundancy box, a device that behaves like a DAN.
