About This Item
IEC TR 61850-90-17:2017 is a technical reference for using IEC 61850 to transmit power quality data within communication networks and systems for power utility automation. It is relevant for engineers and compliance teams that need a documented approach to representing, exchanging, and evaluating power quality information in utility environments. As a 2017 edition technical report, it supports technical review, integration planning, and conformity assessment workflows where consistent data handling and operational consistency are important.
Purpose of IEC TR 61850-90-17:2017
The purpose of IEC TR 61850-90-17:2017 is to guide how IEC 61850 concepts may be applied to power quality data transmission in power utility automation systems. It is intended to support engineering documentation, system design alignment, and technical validation by clarifying the expected communication approach for power quality information. For organizations working with utility automation, the document can help structure evaluation activities and reduce ambiguity when defining interoperability and data exchange requirements.
Compliance applications of IEC TR 61850-90-17:2017
IEC TR 61850-90-17:2017 is commonly useful during product evaluation, system integration, and laboratory evaluation of power utility automation solutions that exchange power quality data. It may support procurement review, technical assessment, and regulatory preparation where IEC 61850-based communication behavior needs to be documented and checked. Typical workflows include reviewing engineering specifications, aligning test plans, and supporting verification activities for equipment used in utility monitoring, control, and communication environments.
Benefits of IEC TR 61850-90-17:2017
Using IEC TR 61850-90-17:2017 can improve consistency in how power quality data is represented and assessed across engineering and testing workflows. That can help reduce integration risk, support interoperability between systems, and strengthen quality assurance during conformity assessment preparation. For procurement and compliance teams, it provides a clearer technical basis for comparing solutions, documenting requirements, and supporting validation efforts where reliable communication of power quality information is important to operational performance and compliance.
