What is IEC61850?
IEC 61850 is an international standard defining communication protocols for intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) at electrical substations. It provides a standardized way for devices from different vendors to communicate and exchange information, enabling advanced substation automation functionalities like protection, control, monitoring, and metering. It is commonly used in power systems to improve efficiency, reliability, and interoperability.
