【IEC 61850 SCL Validation Using UML Model in Modern Digital Substation】 Power systems are complex systems which electrically connect geographically dispersed equipment from the power plants to the transmission and distribution substations and finally end with the supply of electricity to the customer. Since the advent of Smart Grid technology, a common standard through international standardization (the IEC 61850 international standard) have been created. The standard stipulates the Substation Configuration Description Language (SCL) file as a means to define the substation equipment, Intelligent Electronic Devices (IED) function and also the communication mechanism for the substation area network. This paper proposes a technique for verifying standard data compliance for arbitrary IEC 61850 based devices using UML and XMI.
