IEC 60870-5-103 overview
Section 2 IEC 60870-5-103 overview
2.1 IEC 60870-5-103 standard
IEC 60870-5-103 is defined as a companion standard for the informative element of

protection equipment. While the official IEC 60870-5-103 standard dates back to
1997, the protocol has its roots in the VDEW6 communication protocol from the late
1980’s. A VDEW6 device can be seen as a subset of an IEC 60870-5-103 device but
not the opposite.
IEC 60870-5-103 defines communication for a serial, unbalanced link only.

Communication speeds are defined as either 9600 or 19200 baud.
Standard documentation
This manual assumes that the reader has some basic knowledge of the IEC
60870-5-103 protocol and the standard IEC 60870 documents relating to the protocol.

5-3 General structure of application data
5-4 Definition and coding of application information elements
5-5 Basic application functions
5-6 Conformance testing guidelines
5-103 Companion standard for the informative interface of protection equipment.
The IEC 60870-5-1…6 parts are also used in communication protocols like IEC
60870-5-101 and IEC 60870-5-104.
Interoperability and interchangeability

An IEC 60870-5-103 device can be interoperable and interchangeable or only
interoperable. Interoperability means that any required application data in the device,
which can be coded into an IEC 60870-5-103 data type, can be mapped into the IEC
60870-5-103 address space. This data is recognized by any IEC 60870-5-103 master.
Interchangeability means supporting the application data (informative elements)

whose semantics are pre-defined by the IEC 60870-5-103 standard. However, only a
very limited set of application data informative elements has been defined by the
standard. It should also be noticed that these sets of data are mainly defined for a
630 series 9
IEC 60870-5-103 overview
single-function protection IED. The 630 series IEDs in turn are multifunctional
protection and control IEDs whose internal data model is based on the IEC 61850
standard.
Interoperability list
The standard requires the IEC 60870-5-103 device to provide an interoperability list,
which actually is more an interchangeability list. See the vendor-specific
implementation section in this manual for the interoperability list.

3.1 Engineering in PCM600
Application Configuration and Parameter Setting in PCM600 are used to configure

the communication for IEC 60870-5-103 protocol.
1. Add the desired IEC 60870-5-103 function blocks to the application

configuration in the Application Configuration tool.
2. Connect the outputs of desired protection and monitoring function in the
application configuration to the inputs of the corresponding IEC 60870-5-103
function block.
3. Set the function type and desired information number, where an information
number must be supplied, for each IEC 60870-5-103 function block instance in
the Parameter Setting tool.
4. Set the general communication parameters for IEC 60870-5-103 and time
synchronization parameters in the Parameter Setting tool.
3.2 Specific IEC 60870-5-103 settings
Set parameter Operation to On either in Parameter Setting tool or from the local HMI.
Parameter Operation is found under IED Configuration/Station communication/

IEC60870-5-103:1 in PST. The IED is automatically restarted when any general
parameter is changed.
The general settings for IEC 60870-5-103 communication are the following:
• SlaveAddress and BaudRate: Settings for slave number and communication
speed (baud rate).
The slave number can be set to any value between 1 and 31. The communication
speed, can be set either to 9600 bits/s or 19200 bits/s.
• RevPolarity: Setting for connection idle state (light on or light off).
• CycMeasRepTime: Setting for CycMeasRepTime must be coordinated with the
xDbRepInt and xAngDbRepInt reporting setting on the MMXU measurement
function blocks. See I103MEAS function block for more information.
• EventRepMode: Defines the mode for how events are reported.
The event buffer size is 1000 events.
630 series 11
Event reporting mode

If "SeqOfEvent" is selected, all GI and spontaneous events will be delivered in the
order they were generated by BSW. The most recent value is the latest value delivered.
All GI data from a single block will come from the same cycle.
If "HiPriSpont" is selected, spontaneous events will be delivered prior to GI event. To

prevent old GI data from being delivered after a new spontaneous event, the pending
GI event is modified to contain the same value as the spontaneous event. As a result
the GI dataset is not time-correlated.

3.3 IEC 60870-5-103 time synchronization
An IED with IEC 60870-5-103 protocol can be used for time synchronization, but for
accuracy reasons, it is not recommended. In some cases, however, this kind of
synchronization is needed, for example, when no other synchronization is available.
First, set the IED to be synchronized via IEC 60870-5-103 from IED Configuration/
Time/Synchronization/TIMESYNCHGEN:1 in PST.

GUID-68284E7B-A24D-4E78-B5BA-736B29F50E9A V1 EN
Figure 3: Settings under TIMESYNCHGEN:1 in PST
Only CoarseSyncSrc can be set to IEC 60870-5-103, not FineSyncSource.
After setting up the time synchronization source, the user must check and modify the
IEC 60870-5-103 time synchronization specific settings, under: IED Configuration/
Communication/Station communication/IEC60870-5-103:1.
• MasterTimeDomain specifies the format of the time sent by the master. Format
can be:
• Coordinated Universal Time ("UTC")
• Local time set in the master ("Local")
• Local time set in the master adjusted according to daylight saving time
("Local with DST")
• TimeSyncMode specifies the time sent by the IED. The time synchronisation is
done using the following ways:
• "IEDTime": The IED sends the messages with its own time.
• "LinMasTime": The IED measures the offset between its own time and the
master time, and applies the same offset for the messages sent as in the
"IEDTimeSkew". But in "LinMasTime" it applies the time changes
occurred between two synchronised messages.
• IEDTimeSkew: The IED measures the offset in between its own time and
the master time and applies the same offset for the messages sent.
• EvalTimeAccuracy evaluates time accuracy for invalid time. Specifies the
accuracy of the synchronization (5, 10, 20 or 40 ms). If the accuracy is worse than
the specified value, the “Bad Time” flag is raised. To accommodate those masters
that are really bad in time sync, the EvalTimeAccuracy can be set to "Off".
According to the standard, the “Bad Time” flag is reported when synchronization has
been omitted in the protection for >23 h.

4.1.1.2 Functionality
103MEAS is a function block that reports all valid measuring types depending on
connected signals.
The measured values come from the corresponding MMXU function block and are
depending on the function block settings. The event reporting interval is set by the
CycMeasRepTime parameter of the IEC 60870-5-103 communication settings.
Input signals of the IEC 60870-5-103 I103MEAS block should be connected to the
corresponding outputs of the MMXU application functions. Depending on the
connected input signals, the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol automatically selects the
proper ASDU Meas 3 or Meas 9 to be used as Class 2 data.

I103FLTPROT is used for fault indications in monitor direction. Each input on the
function block is specific for a certain fault type and therefore must be connected to a
correspondent signal present in the configuration. For example, 68_TRGEN
22 630 series
represents the General Trip of the device, and therefore must be connected to the
general trip signal SMPPTRC_TRIP or equivalent.
The delay observed in the protocol is the time difference in between the signal that is
triggering the Disturbance Recorder and the respective configured signal to the IEC
60870-5-103 I103FLTPROT.

indicators that are getting the position value as an integer (POSITION output of the
GNRLCSWI function block) and sending it over IEC 60870-5-103 (1=OPEN;
2=CLOSE).The standard does not define the use of values 0 and 3 . However, when
connected to a switching device, these values are transmitted.
The BLOCK input blocks only the signals in monitoring direction (the position

4.3 Disturbance recorder file transfer
4.3.1 Disturbance upload

The transfer functionality is based on the Disturbance recorder function. The analog
and binary signals recorded are reported to the master by file transfer. The eight last
disturbances that are recorded are available for transfer to the master. A file that has
been transferred and acknowledged by the master cannot be transferred again.
The binary signals reported by polling are connected to the disturbance function
blocks B1RBDR to B4RBDR. These function blocks include the function type and the
information number for each signal. The reported analog channels are connected to
the disturbance function blocks A1RADR to A4RADR. The eight first ones belong to
the public range and the remaining ones to the private range.
See the technical manual for more information on the description of

the disturbance report.
The following elements are used in the ASDUs defined in the standard.
Analog signals, 40 channels: the channel number for each channel has to be specified.
Channels 1...8 are used in the public range.
• IL1 connected to channel 1 on disturbance function block A1RADR

• IN connected to channel 4 on disturbance function block A1RADR
• UL1E connected to channel 5 on disturbance function block A1RADR
• UEN connected to channel 8 on disturbance function block A1RADR
Channel numbers used for the remaining 32 analog signals are numbers in the private
range 64...95.
Binary signals, 64 channels: for each channel the user can specify a function type and
an information number.
4.3.2 Deviations from the standard

For each input of the Disturbance recorder function there is a setting for the
information number of the connected signal. The information number can be set to any
value between 0...255. Default value is “0”.
Furthermore, there is a setting on each input of the Disturbance recorder function for
the function type.
630 series 39
Disturbance upload
All analog and binary signals that are recorded with disturbance recorder can be
reported to the master. The last eight disturbances that are recorded are available for
transfer to the master. A successfully transferred disturbance (acknowledged by the
master) will not be reported to the master again.
When a new disturbance is recorded by the IED a list of available recorded

disturbances (ASDU 23) will be sent to the master, an updated list of available
disturbances will also be sent whenever something has happened to disturbances in
this list. For example, when a disturbance is deleted (by other client, for example,
PCM600) or when a new disturbance has been recorded or when the master has
uploaded a recording.
Deviations from the standard
This section describes all data that is not exactly as specified in the standard.
ASDU23
In ‘list of recorded disturbances’ (ASDU23) an information element named SOF

(status of fault) exists. This information element consists of 4 bits.
• Bit TP: the protection equipment has tripped during the fault
• Bit TM: the disturbance data are currently being transmitted
• Bit TEST: the disturbance data have been recorded during normal operation or
test mode.
• Bit OTEV: the disturbance data recording has been initiated by another event than
start
The only information that is easily available is test-mode status. The other information
is always set (hard coded) according to the following table.
Table 46: Default bit descriptions
Bit Description
TP Recorded fault with trip [1]
TM Disturbance data waiting for transmission [0]
OTEV Disturbance data initiated by other events [1]
Another information element in ASDU23 is the FAN (fault number). According to the
standard this is a number that is incremented when a protection function takes action.
ASDU26
When a disturbance has been selected by the master; (by sending ASDU24), the
protection equipment answers by sending ASDU26, which contains an information
element named NOF (number of grid faults). This number must indicate fault number
in the power system,that is, a fault in the power system with several trip and auto-
reclosing has the same NOF (while the FAN must be incremented).
40 630 series
To get INF and FUN for the recorded binary signals there are parameters on the
disturbance recorder for each input. The user must set these parameters to identify the
corresponding inputs.
ASDU27
To use the full dynamic range of the transfer representation, RPV is set to the
maximum dynamic value in the recorded signal, RSV to 1.0 and RFA to 1 - 2e-15.

Measurands are transmitted as Class2 data using ASDU 3 or ASDU 9. The maximum
MVAL can either be 1.2 or 2.4 times the rated value. No different rating shall be used
in ASDU 3 and ASDU 9, that is, there is only one choice for each measurand.
Measurand Max. MVAL = rated value times

Recorded analog channels are sent with ASDU26 and ASDU31. One information
element in these ASDUs is called ACC and it indicates the actual channel to be
processed. The channels on disturbance recorder are sent with an ACC according to
the following table.
