“…The different topologies can occur dynamically and are dependent from different characteristics like distance between nodes, number of devices, etc. WH is a self healing network presenting features such as channel hopping for each transmission and different routing mechanisms in order to increase reliability [9].These features allow security, reliability and determinism even in harsh environments.

“…In the literature there are some studies regarding the use of IEC 61850 on Wireless LAN [8] and ZigBee [9] [10] [11], but the approaches are in the usage of the standard messages running over wireless devices. Furthermore, the protocols employed by the IEC 61850 do not have the levels of security and reliability required by the power sector, as defined in [12], where it is recommended to use protocols such as WH or ISA100.11 for power substations.…”

Power substations have received significant improvements in automation systems through the implementation of IEC 61850 standard. Interoperability between multi-vendor devices and costs reduction by cabling suppression where brought as main advantages. Though, there is yet a gap in the usage of wireless communication systems, which are not covered by the current standard. A wireless solution could further reduce the cabling and installation costs and provide portability. In order to attend the requirements of reliability and security intrinsic to power substations systems, a solution is proposed by integrating industrial wireless communication technologies within the IEC 61850 standard.

“…Along the same lines, Faria proposed the integration of a ZigBee network with the communication standard in IEC 61850 substations, in which a prototype was developed to analyze the implementation of IEC 61850 in a WSN. However, there is a disadvantage of using this prototype because the platform limitation does not support IPv6 over low‐power wireless personal area networks (6LowPan) technology, which does not allow transmission control protocol/Internet protocol data transmission as required by manufacturing message specification (MMS)–type messages.…”

Summary Transmission and distribution systems for electricity have undergone a technological revolution in terms of operation and management using computer networks, automation, remote sensing, and information and communication technologies to improve the performance of digital electronic meters. This work describes the integration of a wireless sensor networks (WSNs)–based communication system with an electrical energy‐measurement structure, to verify the feasibility of large‐scale installation of intelligent electronic meters in low‐voltage consumer units. The study is based on simulations, using Castalia, considering 2 scenarios, the first in a flat network and the second in a hierarchical network of WSNs to analyze the feasibility of sending messages from intelligent electronic meters to the concessionaires through a ZigBee network.In addition, the time requirements of the IEC 61850 standard for sending and receiving manufacturing message specifications and generic object‐oriented substation event type messages are verified. This work demonstrated the technical feasibility of using WSNs for different node densities by region and evaluated the location of the sink node, and adequate infrastructures for WSNs were found. This extends time checks for both vertical (usually for supervision) and horizontal (used for protection) messages. The proposed model has great potential to use a WSN infrastructure and to evaluate if this infrastructure allows data transmission of the protocols used in smart grids, mainly verifying the requirements of transmission times required by each application.

“…Reference [21] reviewed the application of WSNs for electric power systems and studies the statistical characterization of wireless channel in different power system environment, such as substations or power control rooms. In [26], Pinto et al proposed a WSN deployment to improve electrical secondary substation using ZigBee technology and integrating a communication model based on IEC 61850.…”

One of the fundamental tasks of electric distribution utilities is guaranteeing a continuous supply of electricity to their customers. The primary distribution network is a critical part of these facilities because a fault in it could affect thousands of customers. However, the complexity of this network has been increased with the irruption of distributed generation, typical in a Smart Grid and which has significantly complicated some of the analyses, making it impossible to apply traditional techniques. This problem is intensified in underground lines where access is limited. As a possible solution, this paper proposes to make a deployment of a distributed sensor network along the power lines. This network proposes taking advantage of its distributed character to support new approaches of these analyses. In this sense, this paper describes the aquiculture of the proposed network (adapted to the power grid) based on nodes that use power line communication and energy harvesting techniques. In this sense, it also describes the implementation of a real prototype that has been used in some experiments to validate this technological adaptation. Additionally, beyond a simple use for monitoring, this paper also proposes the use of this approach to solve two typical distribution system operator problems, such as: fault location and failure forecasting in power cables.
