What is PD IEC TR 62351 ‑ 90 ‑ 1 - Power systems management and associated information exchange about?
PD IEC TR 62351 is a series on Power systems management and associated information exchange. Power systems management and associated information exchange allows our customers to select important power supply parameters over a digital communication interface. PD IEC TR 62351 ‑ 90 ‑ 1 is a technical report, addresses the handling of access control of users and automated agents to data objects in power systems by means of role-based access control (RBAC) as defined in IEC TS 62351-8. IEC TS 62351-8 defines three different profiles to distribute role information and also defines a set of mandatory roles to be supported. Adoption of RBAC has shown that the defined mandatory roles are not always sufficient, and it is recommended that the method for defining custom roles be standardized to ensure interoperability. Hence, the main focus of PD IEC TR 62351 ‑ 90 ‑ 1 lies in developing a standardized method for defining and engineering custom roles, their role-to-right mappings and the corresponding infrastructure support needed to utilize these custom roles in...
