CHP157 – SAM600 for Digital Substation –

Operation & Configuration

Course goal
The participants acquire in-depth product knowledge that enables them to implement SAM600 for digi-
tal substation solutions in practice. They are using PCM600 to manage, structure and configure SAM600
setups, and ITT600 for monitoring IEC 61850 process bus setups.

Main learning objectives Topics

The participants will be able to:
— Explain the differences and commonalities
of substations and digital substations
— Understand product and system architecture
and its ordering specification
— Explain the basic configuration principles
— Describe the tool environment and installa-
tion
— Implement SAM600 for digital substation so-
lutions with the tools on the training models.
— Configure the communication interfaces
— Test and verify the implemented application
example
— Troubleshoot the system, using the applica-
tion and configuration manual
