Part 10: Conformance testing
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61850-10 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 57:
Power systems management and associated information exchange.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2005. It constitutes a
technical revision.
The major technical changes with regard to the previous edition are as follows:
– server device conformance test procedures have been updated;
– client device conformance test procedures have been added;
– sampled values device conformance test procedures have been added;
– (engineering) tool related conformance test procedures have been added;
– GOOSE performance test procedures have been added.

This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts of IEC 61850 series, under the general title Communication networks and
systems for power utility automation, can be found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data
related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.

INTRODUCTION
This part of IEC 61850 is part of a set of specifications which details a layered power utility
communication architecture.
This part of IEC 61850 defines:
• the methods and abstract test cases for conformance testing of client, server and sampled
values devices used in power utility automation systems, and
• the methods and abstract test cases for conformance testing of engineering tools used in
power utility automation systems, and
• the metrics to be measured within devices according to the requirements defined in
IEC 61850-5.
The intended readers are IEC 61850 developers, test engineers and test system developers.
NOTE 1 Tests regarding EMC requirements and environmental conditions are subject to IEC 61850-3 and not
included in this part of IEC 61850.
It is recommended that IEC 61850-5 and IEC 61850-7-1 be read first in conjunction with
IEC 61850-7-2, IEC 61850-7-3, and IEC 61850-7-4.
NOTE 2 Abbreviations used in IEC 61850-10 are listed in Clause 4 or may be found in other parts of IEC 61850
that are relevant for conformance testing.

Part 10: Conformance testing
1 Scope
This part of IEC 61850 specifies standard techniques for testing of conformance of client,
server and sampled value devices and engineering tools, as well as specific measurement
techniques to be applied when declaring performance parameters. The use of these
techniques will enhance the ability of the system integrator to integrate IEDs easily, operate
IEDs correctly, and support the applications as intended.
NOTE The role of the test facilities for conformance testing and certifying the results is beyond the scope of this
part of IEC 61850.

statement with device specific information regarding the implemented technical issues
detected after publication of the standard. The TICS is not subject to standardisation.
3.15
type test
verification of correct behaviour of the IEDs of the PUAS by use of the system tested software
under the test conditions corresponding with the technical data
Note 1 to entry: The type test marks the final stage of the hardware development and is the precondition for the
start of the production. This test is carried out with IEDs, which have been manufactured through the normal
production cycle.
3.16
witness point
point, defined in the appropriate document, at which an inspection will take place on an
activity
Note 1 to entry: The activity may proceed without the approval of the initiator of the conformance test. The test
facility provides a written notice to the initiator at an agreed time prior to the witness point. The initiator or his
representative has the right, but is not obligated, to verify the witness point.
