IEEE C37.247-2019 PDF
This standard specifies the requirements of phasor data concentrators (PDCs) for power systems. It includes the following requirements: a) Data aggregation b) Processing of synchrophasors and other synchronized data c) Data interfaces with other systems d) Handling of commands, configuration, and other metadata e) Performance, including latency, environmental, throughput f) Testing
The purpose is to improve interoperability of devices, systems, and applications that use synchrophasors and other synchronized data by standardizing requirements for PDCs.
New IEEE Standard – Active. A phasor data concentrator (PDC) is defined in this standard as a set of functions that may be performed on synchrophasor data. It describes the PMU measurement network and indicates the place of the PDC in it. The standard defines the minimum functions that a PDC should perform. The performance requirements for these functions are given, and the ways they can be tested are described. Cybersecurity is discussed, and while its importance is acknowledged in the overall system, it is beyond the scope of this standard, which is viewed as specific to PDC functions.
