1679   GoEna behavior at startup

Created: 03 Mar 2020

Status: In Force (green)

Part: Part 7-2 (2020; Edition 2.1)

Links: #1241 Add goEna attribute

Page: 132 & 136

Clause: 18.2.1 & 18.2.3

Paragraph: Table 87 & 94

Issue

Expected behavior of GoEna attribute at startup is not consistent in IEC 61850-7-2 Ed2.1.

In Table 87, for GoEna attribute, there is the following explanation: "The value of GoEna at IED startup depends on the IED
configuration."
In Table 94, for StNum, there is the following explanation:
"A transition of GoEna to TRUE happens directly at
power-up or restart for properly and consistently configured
GoCB."

For information, tissue 1241 is related to the same topic.

Proposal

First, correct inconsistency in existing standard
Keep statement in the standard that the value of GoEna when server starts depends on IED configuration.
* Remove NOTE in Table 94 which is out of context for GoEna behavior.
* Add a text in Table 87 to indicate that the value of GoEna shall be FALSE if GoCB is not properly and consistently configured.

Secondly, enhance standard as expected in tissue 1241.

Discussion Created Status
6 months over 30 Nov 22 In Force (green)
batching of tissue has been circulated 57/2445/INF
Move to mustImplement:


Text in Table 87 is changed from
"The value of GoEna at IED startup depends on the IED configuration."
to:
"At power-up or restart for fully configured GoCB, a transition of GoEna to TRUE happens directly, otherwise GoEna remains FALSE."

Text in Table 94 does not need to change.
01 Feb 22 Must Implement
Ballot expired - moved to solution accepted - wait for batch 16 Mar 21 Solution Accepted
Test case verified 16 Feb 21 Ballot Period
Proposed test procedure attached as TestProcedure_sGop3.docx.
Blue text is added, strikethrough text is deleted.
Note that if device is "only test equipment" then it is not required to automatically begin sending GOOSE upon restart.
14 Dec 20 Conformance Test Verification
Move to the next stage. No compatibility issues have been identified, as statement in Table 94 remains unchanged. 25 Nov 20 Conformance Test Preparation
The tissue is an alignement of Table 94 and Table 87. No compatibilty issues have been identified, as statement in Table 94 remains unchanged.
11 Nov 20 Analysis Of Compatibility
move to verify implementation.
Draft is:

Text in Table 87 will be changed from "The value of GoEna at IED startup depends on the IED configuration."
to:
"At power-up or restart for fully configured
GoCB, a transition of GoEna to TRUE happens directly, otherwise GoEna remains FALSE."

Text in Table 94 does not need to change.
28 Oct 20 Verify Draft Implementation
Changing to Draft implementation
Text in Table 87 will be changed from "The value of GoEna at IED startup depends on the IED configuration."
to:
"At power-up or restart for fully configured
GoCB, a transition of GoEna to TRUE happens directly, otherwise GoEna remains FALSE."

Text in Table 94 does not need to change.
21 Oct 20 Drafting Implementation
Proposed change:
Table 87 from "The value of GoEna at IED startup depends on the IED
configuration."

to
"At power-up or restart for fully configured
GoCB, a transition of GoEna to TRUE happens directly, otherwise GoEna remains FALSE."

Table 94 does not need to change: the note is explaining the impact of a GoEna transition at IED start up on stNum.
