Part 6: Security for IEC 61850

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 62351-6 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 57: Power
systems management and associated information exchange.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
57/2234/FDIS 57/2258/RVD

Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in the
report on voting indicated in the above table.
This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts of the IEC 62351 series, published under the general title Power systems
management and associated information exchange – Data and communications security, can
be found on the IEC website.

The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
stability date indicated on the IEC website under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to
the specific document. At this date, the document will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.

Part 6: Security for IEC 61850



1 Scope and object
1.1 Scope
This part of IEC 62351 specifies messages, procedures, and algorithms for securing the
operation of all protocols based on or derived from the IEC 61850 series. This document applies
to at least those protocols listed in Table 1.
Table 1 – Scope of application to standards
Number Name
IEC 61850-8-1 Communication networks and systems for power utility automation – Part 8-1: Specific
communication service mapping (SCSM) – Mappings to MMS (ISO/IEC 9506-1 and
ISO/IEC 9506-2) and to ISO/IEC 8802-3
IEC 61850-8-2 Communication networks and systems for power utility automation – Part 8-2: Specific
communication service mapping (SCSM) – Mapping to Extensible Messaging Presence
Protocol (XMPP)
IEC 61850-9-2 Communication networks and systems for power utility automation – Part 9-2: Specific
communication service mapping (SCSM) – Sampled values over ISO/IEC 8802-3
IEC 61850-6 Communication networks and systems for power utility automation – Part 6: Configuration
description language for communication in power utility automation systems related to
IEDs

The initial audience for this document is intended to be the members of the working groups
developing or making use of the protocols listed in Table 1. For the measures described in this
specification to take effect, they must be accepted and referenced by the specifications for the
protocols themselves. This document is written to enable that process.
The subsequent audience for this document is intended to be the developers of products that
implement these protocols.
Portions of this document may also be of use to managers and executives in order to understand
the purpose and requirements of the work.
1.2 Namespace name and version
This new clause is mandatory for any IEC 61850 namespace (as defined by part 7-1 of
IEC 61850 Edition 2).
The parameters which identify this new release of this namespace are:
• Namespace version: 2020
• Namespace revision: A
• Namespace name: “IEC 62351-6:2020A”
• Namespace release: 1
