Information model for power grid fault diagnosis based on CIM

Abstract

This paper deals with information model for power grid fault diagnosis based on Common Information Model (CIM). Fault diagnosis gains information from topology information and device parameters of primary system grid based on IEC61970 standard and device information of secondary system grid based on IEC 61850. Device information contains information of protection movement wave record and protection configuration. However, the existent CIM can't fully represent power system fault diagnosis information. Thus, it is need to extend CIM. All kinds of information are based on different model, which causes different information standard. In this paper a preliminary study on CIM extensions which is based on power system fault diagnosis, has been proposed to perfect fault information model. On the basis of different standard model, this paper has discussed the theory of coordinating IEC 61850 and IEC61970 standard, and proposed using Web Ontology Language (OWL) based on Extensible Mark-up Language (XML) to the solution of this problem. A fault Information Model is then provided to the fault diagnosis system according to Component Interface Specification (CIS) in IEC61970. After receiving fault information, the fault diagnosis system starts for real-time, on-line fault diagnosis. Fault information model has solved the problem of the deficiency and non-standard of fault diagnosis information, attaining fault diagnosis information integrity and standardization, and making the fault diagnosis result fast and accurate.
