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.
This part of International Standard IEC 61968 has been prepared by IEC technical
committee 57: Power systems management and associated information exchange.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting

INTRODUCTION
The IEC 61968 standard, taken as a whole, defines interfaces for the major elements of an
interface architecture for Distribution Management Systems (DMS). IEC 61968-1, Interface
architecture and general recommendations, identifies and establishes requirements for
standard interfaces based on an Interface Reference Model (IRM). IEC 61968-3 to 9 of this
standard define interfaces relevant to each of the major business functions described by the
Interface Reference Model.
As used in IEC 61968, a DMS consists of various distributed application components for the
utility to manage electrical distribution networks. These capabilities include monitoring and
control of equipment for power delivery, management processes to ensure system reliability,
voltage management, demand-side management, outage management, work management,
automated mapping and facilities management.
This set of standards is limited to the definition of interfaces and is implementation
independent. They provide for interoperability among different computer systems, platforms,
and languages. Methods and technologies used to implement functionality conforming to
these interfaces are considered outside of the scope of these standards; only the interface
itself is specified in these standards.
The purpose of this part of IEC 61968 is to define a standard for the integration of
Maintenance and Construction Systems (MC), which would include Work Management
Systems, with other systems and business functions within the scope of IEC 61968. The
scope of this standard is the exchange of information between Maintenance and Construction
Systems and other systems within the utility enterprise. The specific details of communication
protocols those systems employ are outside the scope of this standard. Instead, this standard
will recognize and model the general capabilities that can be potentially provided by
maintenance and construction systems including planned, unplanned and conditional
maintenance. In this way, this standard will not be impacted by the specification, development
and/or deployment of next generation maintenance systems, either through the use of
standards or proprietary means.
The IEC 61968 series of standards is intended to facilitate inter-application integration as
opposed to intra-application integration. Intra-application integration is aimed at programs in
the same application system, usually communicating with each other using middleware that is
embedded in their underlying runtime environment, and tends to be optimised for close, real-
time, synchronous connections and interactive request/reply or conversation communication
models. IEC 61968, by contrast, is intended to support the inter-application integration of a
utility enterprise that needs to connect disparate applications that are already built or new
(legacy or purchased applications), each supported by dissimilar runtime environments.
Therefore, these interface standards are relevant to loosely coupled applications with more
heterogeneity in languages, operating systems, protocols and management tools. This series
of standards is intended to support applications that need to exchange data every few
seconds, minutes, or hours rather than waiting for a nightly batch run. This series of
standards, which are intended to be implemented with middleware services that exchange
messages among applications, will complement, not replace, utility data warehouses,
database gateways, and operational stores.
As used in IEC 61968, a Distribution Management System (DMS) consists of various
distributed application components for the utility to manage electrical distribution networks.
These capabilities include monitoring and control of equipment for power delivery,
management processes to ensure system reliability, voltage management, demand-side
management, outage management, work management, automated mapping and facilities
management. Standard interfaces are defined for each class of applications identified in the
Interface Reference Model (IRM), which is described in IEC 61968-1, Interface architecture
and general recommendations.

1 Scope
This part of IEC 61968 specifies the information content of a set of message types that can be
used to support business functions related to Maintenance and Construction. Typical uses of
the message types defined in this part of IEC 61968 include planned maintenance, unplanned
maintenance, conditional maintenance, work management, new service requests, etc.
Message types defined in other parts of IEC 61968 may also be relevant to these use cases.
The mapping of these messages to specific technologies such as XML will be described at a
later date.
