About This Item
IEEE P1815.1/D4.00, Jun 2012 is a draft standard focused on exchanging information between networks implementing IEC 61850 and IEEE Std 1815 (Distributed Network Protocol - DNP3). It addresses interoperability at the interface between two widely used utility communication environments, helping define how data can be transferred more consistently across power and automation systems. For engineers, integrators, and procurement teams, IEEE P1815.1/D4.00, Jun 2012 provides a technical reference for coordinated communication design and compatibility planning.
About IEEE P1815.1/D4.00, Jun 2012
This draft standard outlines requirements and guidance for exchanging information between IEC 61850-based networks and systems using IEEE Std 1815, also known as DNP3. Its technical purpose is to support communication mapping and data exchange across different network implementations in power and energy applications. As a draft document, it is especially relevant to teams evaluating interoperability, system integration, and control architecture decisions where the two protocols may need to work together.
Where is IEEE P1815.1/D4.00, Jun 2012 used?
IEEE P1815.1/D4.00, Jun 2012 is most relevant in utility automation, substation communications, and related power system environments where IEC 61850 equipment must interface with DNP3-based control or monitoring systems. It may be used by system designers working with relays, gateways, remote terminal units, SCADA links, and supervisory applications. The standard is also useful when coordinating information exchange across mixed-vendor infrastructure, especially in projects that bridge protection, control, and telemetry networks.
Importance in practice
In practice, this standard helps reduce integration risk when different communication models must share operational data. Using IEEE P1815.1/D4.00, Jun 2012 can support clearer design expectations, more consistent testing, and better procurement decisions for mixed-protocol installations. It is valuable where dependable information exchange affects monitoring, control response, and system consistency. For organizations managing utility communications, the draft provides a structured reference that can improve interoperability planning and lower the chance of interface errors.
