The focus of BS EN 61400-25-3:2015 is on the communications between wind power plant
components such as wind turbines and actors such as SCADA systems. Internal
communication within wind power plant components is outside the scope of the IEC 61400-25
series.The IEC 61400-25 series is designed for a communication environment supported by a clientserver
model. Three areas are defined, that are modelled separately to ensure the scalability
of implementations: (1) wind power plant information models, (2) information exchange model,
and (3) mapping of these two models to a standard communication profile.The wind power plant information model and the information exchange model, viewed
together, constitute an interface between client and server. In this conjunction, the wind power
plant information model serves as an interpretation frame for accessible wind power plant
data. The wind power plant information model is used by the server to offer the client a
uniform, component-oriented view of the wind power plant data. The information exchange
model reflects the whole active functionality of the server. The IEC 61400-25 series enables
connectivity between a heterogeneous combination of client and servers from different
manufacturers and suppliers.As depicted in Figure 1, the IEC 61400-25 series defines a server with the following aspects:information provided by a wind power plant component, e. g., "wind turbine rotor speed" or
"total power production of a certain time interval" is modelled and made available for
access. The information modelled in the IEC 61400-25 series is defined in
IEC 61400-25-2;services to exchange values of the modelled information defined in IEC 61400-25-3;mapping to a communication profile, providing a protocol stack to carry the exchanged
values from the modelled information (IEC 61400-25-4).The IEC 61400-25 series only defines how to model the information, information exchange
and mapping to specific communication protocols. The IEC 61400-25 series excludes a
definition of how and where to implement the communication interface, the application
program interface and implementation recommendations. However, the objective of the
IEC 61400-25 series is that the information associated with a single wind power plant
component (such as a wind turbine) is accessible through a corresponding logical device.This part of IEC 61400-25 specifies an abstract communication service interface describing
the information exchange between a client and a server for:data access and retrieval,device control,event reporting and logging,self-description of devices (device data dictionary),data typing and discovery of data types.Cross References:IEC 61400-25-1IEC 61400-25-2:2015IEC 61400-25-4:2008IEC 61850-7-2:2010EN 61400-25-1EN 61400-25-2EN 61400-25-4EN 61850-7-2IEC 61850-7-3IEC 61850-7-4EN 61850-7-3EN 61850-7-4All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
