IEC 61850 protection test set
Omicron now offers a new protection test set dedicated to IEC 61850.
The new CMC 850 focuses on the real-time communication methods of GOOSE and Sampled Values to interface with test objects. The new test set is very small and lightweight since there is no need for conventional binary inputs/outputs or amplifiers for the secondary signals. Despite its small size it provides two Ethernet interfaces allowing the safe separation of data traffic from different network segments and the segregation of substation protocol data and test set control commands.
Like other CMC test sets, the CMC 850 is controlled by Omicron’s Test Universe software. The new device also offers embedded functions, such as the visualization of received Sampled Values and the calculation of synchrophasors.
