Overview

This International Standard specifies the distribution extensions of the common information model (CIM) specified in IEC 61970-301. It defines a standard set of extensions of the CIM which supports the message definitions in IEC 61968-3 to IEC 61968-9, IEC 61968-13 and IEC 61968-14. The scope of this standard is the information model that extends the base CIM for the needs of distribution networks, as well as for integration with enterprise-wide information systems typically used within electrical utilities. This information model is defined in UML. In this way, this standard will not be impacted by modifications of the specification, developments and/or the deployment of next generation infrastructures. The CIM is an abstract model of the major objects in an electric utility enterprise typically involved in utility operations. By providing a standard way of representing power system resources as object classes and attributes, along with their relationships, the CIM facilitates the integration of software applications developed independently by different vendors. The CIM facilitates integration by defining a common language (for example, semantics and syntax) based on the CIM to enable these applications and systems to access public data and exchange information. The responsible committee is DKE/K 952 "Netzleittechnik" ("Power system control") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
