1MRS758850 D Introduction Introduction ™ ABB Ability Smart Substation Control and Protection for electrical systems SSC600 is a Smart Substation device designed for protection, control, measurement and supervision of utility substations and industrial switchgear and equipment. The design of the device has been guided by the IEC 61850 standard for communication and interoperability of substation automation devices.
Introduction 1MRS758850 D 1.1.1 Ethernet redundancy IEC 61850 specifies a network redundancy scheme that improves the system availability for substation communication. It is based on parallel redundancy protocol PRP-1 defined in the IEC 62439-3:2012 standard. The protocol relies on the duplication of all transmitted information via two Ethernet ports for one logical network connection.
1MRS758850 D Introduction In case a laptop or a PC workstation is connected as a non-PRP node to one of the PRP networks, LAN A or LAN B, it is recommended to use a redundancy box device or an Ethernet switch with similar functionality between the PRP network and SAN to remove additional PRP information from the Ethernet frames.

Non-observance can result in death, personal injury or substantial property damage. Only a competent electrician is allowed to carry out the electrical installation.
1MRS758850 D Commissioning Commissioning Commissioning checklist Familiarize yourself with the IED and its functionality before you start the commissioning work. • Ensure that you have all the needed station drawings. • Ensure that your version of the technical manual applies to the IED version you test.
Commissioning 1MRS758850 D Authorizations 3.3.1 User authorization Four users have been predefined for WHMI, each with different rights and default passwords (refer to table Default roles-to-rights in the Cyber Security Deployment Guideline). Local connection is allowed only from the Ethernet port called 'Local port'.
1MRS758850 D Commissioning Setting IED and communication 3.4.1 Setting the communication between IEDs and PCM600 The communication between the IED and PCM600 is independent of the used communication protocol within the substation or to the NCC. It can be seen as a second channel for communication.
Commissioning 1MRS758850 D Testing the IED operation The IED has to be in the test mode before the digital outputs and certain output signals of protection and other functions can be activated. 3.5.1 Selecting the IED test mode The test mode can be activated by activating the IED test view. The test mode is useful for simulated testing of functions and outputs without providing current inputs.
1MRS758850 D Commissioning 3.5.2 Testing functions Activate or deactivate an output signal for protection, or other function, to test the function. Select the protection function from the main menu structure and find the test activation parameter from the bottom. Figure 5: Test activation parameter Enable parameter editing by selecting Enable edit.
Commissioning 1MRS758850 D 3.5.3 Selecting the internal fault test The internal fault test can be activated from the IED test view. Select IED test from the main menu structure to activate the IED test view. Figure 6: IED test view Enable parameter editing by selecting Enable Edit.
Start and/or Ready LEDs remain flashing. ABB Product Data Registration The ABB Product Data Registration feature traces composition changes in the IED's SW or HW. Traceability allows better support and maintenance possibilities. After a composition change, an LCT indication is seen on the WHMI at the IED startup.
IED operation 1MRS758850 D IED operation In a normal IED use situation, the basic operation includes monitoring and checking procedures. • Monitoring measured values • Checking object states • Checking function setting parameters • Checking events and alarms All basic operations can be performed via the WHMI or with PCM600. For more information, see PCM600 documentation.
