IEC 61850 MSTA Module

Module icon

Overview

It maps the appropriate ION values to their IEC 61850 counterparts. The MSTA Logical Node provides metering statistics, such as average, minimum and maximum values. Only one instance of this module can exist. Because this module is specific to supporting the IEC 61580 protocol, it can be deleted if IEC 61850 is not required.

For more information about IEC 61850, please refer to the IEC 61850 and ION Technology protocol document.

Inputs

By default, the MSTA module inputs are linked to the outputs of the related Maximum, Minimum and Sliding Window Demand modules.

AvVA

This register is linked to the output register of the kVA tot mean Sliding Window Demand module, which provides the average apparent power value. Units are kVA.

MaxVA

This register is linked to the output of the kVA tot mx Maximum module, which provides the maximum apparent power value. Units are kVA.

MinVA

This register is linked to the output of the kVA tot mn Minimum module, which provides the minimum apparent power value. Units are kVA.

AvW

This register is linked to the output register of the kW tot mean Sliding Window Demand module, which provides the average real power value. Units are kW.

MaxW

This register is linked to the output of the kW tot mx Maximum module, which provides the maximum real power value. Units are kW.

MinW

This register is linked to the output of the kW tot mn Minimum module, which provides the minimum real power value. Units are kW.

AvVAr

This register is linked to the output register of the kVAR tot mean Sliding Window Demand module, which provides the average reactive power value. Units are kVAR.

MaxVAr

This register is linked to the output of the kVAR tot mx Maximum module, which provides the maximum reactive power value. Units are kVAR.

MinVAr

This register is linked to the output of the kVAR tot mn Minimum module, which provides the minimum reactive power value. Units are kVAR.

Setup registers

The MSTA module has no setup registers.

Output registers

These registers are formatted and named according to IEC 61850 protocol standards. These registers have the same units as their corresponding inputs.

AvVA.instMag, AvVA.mag

These registers contain the instantaneous and deadbanded values for the average apparent power, derived from the AvVA input.

MaxVA.instMag, MaxVA.mag

These registers contain the instantaneous and deadbanded values for the maximum apparent power, derived from the MaxVA input.

MinVA.instMag, MinVA.mag

These registers contain the instantaneous and deadbanded values for the minimum apparent power, derived from the MinVA input.

AvW.instMag, AvW.mag

These registers contain the instantaneous and deadbanded values for the average real power, derived from the AvW input.

MaxW.instMag, MaxW.mag

These registers contain the instantaneous and deadbanded values for the maximum real power, derived from the MaxW input.

MinW.instMag, MinW.mag

These registers contain the instantaneous and deadbanded values for the minimum real power, derived from the MinW input.

AvVAr.instMag, AvVar.mag

These registers contain the instantaneous and deadbanded values for the average reactive power, derived from the AvVAr input.

MaxVAr.instMag, MaxVAr.mag

These registers contain the instantaneous and deadbanded values for the maximum reactive power, derived from the MaxVAr input.

MinVAr.instMag, MinVAr.mag

These registers contain the instantaneous and deadbanded values for the minimum reactive power, derived from the MinVAr input.

Event

Events produced by the module are recorded in the Event register. Possible events and their associated priority numbers are shown in the following table.

The Event output register stores the following information for each ION event: time stamp, priority, cause, effect, and any values or conditions associated with the cause and effect.
