CHAPTER 4: 3 SERIES IEC61850 GOOSE
SR3 SERIES PROTECTIVE RELAY PLATFORM – COMMUNICATIONS GUIDE
Now that we've created the offline settings files for our relays it is time to launch the
Simplified GOOSE Configurator (SGC) tool.
3.1. Right-click the site GOOSE, then select Simplified GOOSE Configurator to
launch the SGC tool.
When the SGC tool is launched, a screen will appear that displays a grid. The first
column of this grid contains the transmission device list and the first row contains the
reception device list.
For the reception row, the second column and those to the right will correspond to one
of the devices in the site list. Each of these columns has 32 cells which represent the
digital information that each device will be receiving, and the associated remote input.
The last column will always be used as a placeholder for a non-3-Series device
(Generic IED). This will allow the user to select data items that do not map to any 3
Series device but will be used by other devices. Any data items found in this column
will not be saved to a device; it is used only to build the transmission data set in the
transmitting 3 Series relay. To make the configuration easy, we allow the user to drag
and drop items from the transmission tree to the corresponding column of the device
that will receive the information.
When we expand each device within the transmission column, we will see a tree
similar to what we have in the offline tree.
Again each reception device column has 32 entries corresponding to the 32 remote
inputs of this device into which the associated status information is mapped.
