Join this live webinar which explores the pivotal role that the IEC 61850 standard plays in modern substation automation.
60-minute session
Power utilities must automate their substations to keep pace with energy infrastructure evolution and new reliability, efficiency, interoperability and flexibility demands.
This session explores the pivotal role that the IEC 61850 standard plays in modern substation automation, focusing on use cases for virtualizing substation relays, protection automation and control systems and merging units.
Our speakers describe how IEC 61850 uses interoperability and open communication protocols to enable seamless integration and future scalability across diverse systems. They also explain why utilities need reliable communication networks that facilitate real-time data exchange and control to make automation work and ensure the integrity and resilience of the substation infrastructure.
