About This Item
IEC 61400-25-4:2016 defines a communication mapping for monitoring and control of wind power plants, helping engineers and compliance teams align data exchange with a recognized technical structure. As part of the IEC 61400-25 series, it supports consistent communication behavior across wind energy systems where reliable monitoring, control, and integration are needed. For organizations evaluating IEC 61400-25-4:2016, the document is relevant to technical review, documented evaluation, and procurement decisions that depend on interoperable control and information exchange.
Purpose of IEC 61400-25-4:2016
The main purpose of IEC 61400-25-4:2016 is to define how the communication profile is mapped for wind power plant monitoring and control functions. In practice, that makes it a useful reference for engineering specification work, technical validation, and system integration planning. It helps clarify how information models and communications are organized so that different equipment and control systems can exchange data in a more consistent way, supporting operational consistency and reducing ambiguity during design or conformity assessment activities.
Compliance applications of IEC 61400-25-4:2016
This technical document is commonly used in wind energy project workflows where communication interfaces, plant supervision, and control integration must be reviewed against a defined reference. It may support laboratory evaluation, factory acceptance planning, and site-level verification activities for systems involved in monitoring or controlling wind power plants. IEC 61400-25-4:2016 can also be helpful during engineering documentation review, regulatory preparation, and procurement of equipment that must align with specified communication expectations.
Benefits of IEC 61400-25-4:2016
Using IEC 61400-25-4:2016 can improve interoperability and reduce integration risk by giving project teams a shared communication framework for wind power plant systems. That is valuable for safety-minded engineering, testing consistency, and technical assessment across suppliers. It also supports quality workflows by making conformity assessment preparation more structured and helping teams compare product evaluation results against the same communication mapping. For operators and integrators, that can simplify commissioning, troubleshooting, and long-term technical documentation control.
