IEC 61968-1:2020
Application integration at electric utilities - System interfaces for distribution management - Part 1: Interface architecture and general recommendations
IEC 61968-1:2020 is the first in a series that, taken as a whole, defines interfaces for the major elements of an interface architecture for power system management and associated information exchange.This document identifies and establishes recommendations for standard interfaces based on an Interface Reference Model (IRM). Subsequent clauses of this document are based on each interface identified in the IRM. This set of standards is limited to the definition of interfaces. They provide for interoperability among different computer systems, platforms, and languages. IEC 61968-100 gives recommendations for methods and technologies to be used to implement functionality conforming to these interfaces.As used in IEC 61968, distribution management consists of various distributed application components for the utility to manage electrical distribution networks. These capabilities include monitoring and control of equipment for power delivery, management processes to ensure system reliability, voltage management, demand-side management, outage management, work management, network model management, facilities management, and metering. The IRM is specified in Clause 3. The IRM defines the high-level view of the TC 57 reference architecture and the detailed in the relevant 61968 series, 61970 series or 62325 series. The goal of the IRM is to provide a common relevant context view for TC 57 that covers domains like transmission, distribution, market, generation, consumer, regional reliability operators, and regulators.This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2012. This edition constitutes a technical revision.This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:a) update of IRM section, which has been out of date since the 2nd edition;b) update to IRM model using ArchiMate modelling language;c) addition of missing business functions and business objects;d) alignment with newly released documents from the technical committee;e) alignment with IEC 61968-100;f) update of annexes.

This International Standard identifies and establishes recommendations for standard interfaces based on an Interface Reference Model (IRM). Subsequent clauses of this standard are based on each interface identified in the IRM. This set of standards is limited to the definition of interfaces. They provide for interoperability among different computer systems, platforms, and languages. Methods and technologies used to implement functionality conforming to these interfaces are recommended in IEC 61968-100. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous one: - update of IRM table which has been out of date; - addition of missing Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) related functions; - alignment with newly released IEC documents; - alignment with IEC 61968-100; update of annexes.
