OVE EN IEC 61850-8-2

This part of IEC 61850 specifies a method of exchanging data through any kinds of network, including public networks. Among the various kinds of services specified in IEC 61850-7-2, only the client/server and time synchronization services are considered so far. For the client/server services, the principle is to map the objects and services of the ACSI (Abstract Communication Service Interface defined in IEC 61850-7-2) to XML messages transported over XMPP. The mapping description includes mainly three aspects: - The usage of the XMPP protocol itself, describing in details which features are really used and how they are used by the mapping (see Clause 6). - How to achieve end-to-end secured communications (see Clause 7). - The description of the XML payloads corresponding to each ACSI service thanks in particular to the XML Schema and XML message examples (starting at Clause 9).
