What is BS EN IEC 61850-7-420 about?

BS EN IEC 61850 is a series on communication networks and systems for power utility automation. A communication network is the pattern of directions in which information flows in the organization. BS EN IEC 61850-7-420 defines the IEC 61850 information models to be used in the exchange of information with distributed energy resources (DER) and Distribution Automation (DA) systems. Distributed energy resources include distribution-connected generation systems, energy storage systems, and controllable loads, as well as facility Distributed energy resources management systems, including aggregated DER, such as plant control systems, facility Distributed energy resources energy management systems (EMS), building EMS, campus EMS, community EMS, microgrid EMS, etc. DA equipment includes equipment used to manage distribution circuits, including automated switches, fault indicators, capacitor banks, voltage regulators, and other power management devices. In BS EN while defining Distributed energy resources and Distribution Automation specific logical nodes to provide the necessary data objects for Distributed energy resources and Distribution A...
