Issue

EX functional constrained data is non operational and it should be possible for this type of data to exist in IED configuration (SCL) only as well. Table 46 refers to operational data generally and for non operational data only CF and DC FCs are separately mentioned.

Proposal

Allow Valkind value Conf for EX functional constrained data.

Ballot Period For dataNs a valKind=Conf together with a valid name space value is allowed. Rationale: an application either 'knows' the data it needs, or will anyhow ignore it. Humans can look into the SCL file.
For lnNs and ldNs however an online value is a must enabling clients to establish the semantic context.
