Electric power industries have expanded the automation of their networks in recent years to meet the growing demands for improvements in services. The introduction of the concept of Smart Grid, the increased availability of smart devices and improvements in telecommunications are key factors for that. Besides the benefits in control and management that this concept brings, there are some technical restrictions for the adoption due to legacy or multiple vendor equipments, each one with its own standard, as well as interoperability with supervisory and management softwares. This paper, then, proposes the use of a gateway to enable interoperability between devices using different communication protocols by translating them, centering data and control in a database defined by the Common Information Model(CIM) standard. |
